Who we share your data with
Payment processors
For the purposes of completing a payment to us we, of necessity, need to direct you to a secure payment processor for your payment authorisation. This payment processor is a third party web site and you will be subject to that web site’s privacy policy and data requirements. We do not intercept or record your payment authorisation information. The payment processor will provide us with confirmation of payment which we will match to information you have already provided to us.
Third party data storage providers
A third party data storage provider is used to store off-site data backups that includes web site data along with operational data such as accounting information, and email. Your personal data may be included in backups retained by a third party data storage provider for the purposes of business continuity, and ensuring we can meet our statutory and legal obligations.
Affiliates and Partners
From time to time we may offer services through affiliate or partner networks on our website. Our website will clearly indicate that the service you are being provided is from an affiliate or partner and you will have the choice to continue or not.
Affiliate and partner services may be provided by off-site links. Once you leave our website using an affiliate or partner link you are no longer subject to this privacy policy and will be subject to the affiliate or partner site privacy policy. We strongly advise you to review the privacy policy of any site you visit.
Third party services
For operational purposes we use a number of external services such as banks, payment processors, accountants, cloud accounting software, email services, email gateways, data storage providers, video streaming services, Internet service providers, and hosting providers.
This privacy policy does not extend to third party services that we use.
Data in transit
Electronic communications with third party services uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) which now supersedes the more commonly known Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). TLS prevents access to your data in transit by employing Internet standard cryptographic techniques.
Data at rest with third party services
This privacy policy does not extend to third party services that we use.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
Aside from leaving comments which are retained indefinitely, if you are not a customer, we retain your information for six months from our most recent contact with you unless you request that we delete it earlier. Personal data contained in off-site backups cannot be deleted as it could corrupt the integrity of the backup which also contains data that must be retained to meet statutory requirements. Should a backup be used to retrieve data, we will undertake to remove your data from our systems once the backup has been restored and before it is used for recovery purposes.
If you are a business customer then we have a statutory obligation to retain your data for a longer period of time for substantiation, taxation, and record keeping purposes. The exact retention period will depend on the laws of Australia, or the State of New South Wales.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
If you have a privacy request
If you have a request to obtain a copy of the information we retain about you, are requesting deletion of your personal data, or any other privacy related enquiry, send an email to privacy@orotena.com
To request deletion of your personal data you must use the contact method that you used to provide the information in the first place or the contact information associated with your current profile otherwise we cannot validate that you own the information that you are requesting us to delete.
