Privacy Policy

Last Updated: February 2025

At saviontrela, we take your privacy seriously. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our financial technology tools and services. We're committed to transparency and giving you control over your data.

1 Information We Collect

We collect different types of information depending on how you interact with our platform. Here's what we gather and why:

Personal Details

Name, email address, phone number, and postal address when you create an account or contact us.

Financial Information

Transaction history, payment methods, and account balances to provide our core services.

Technical Data

IP address, browser type, device information, and usage patterns to improve functionality.

Communication Records

Your messages with our support team and any feedback you provide about our services.

We only collect what we need to deliver our services effectively. You can always request to see what information we hold about you.

2 How We Use Your Information

Your data helps us run our platform and improve your experience. We use it for several specific purposes:

  • Processing transactions and maintaining your account security
  • Sending you important updates about services you're using
  • Analyzing usage patterns to fix bugs and enhance features
  • Complying with Australian financial regulations and legal requirements
  • Preventing fraud and protecting against unauthorized access
  • Responding to your support requests and questions
  • Developing new tools that might benefit your financial management

We don't sell your personal information to third parties. That's a promise we stand by.

3 Data Storage and Security

We store your information on secure servers located in Australia, with backup systems to prevent data loss. Our security measures include:

Encryption: All sensitive data is encrypted both in transit and at rest using industry-standard protocols.

Access Controls: Only authorized staff members can access your information, and we track every access attempt.

Regular Audits: We conduct security assessments quarterly to identify and address potential vulnerabilities.

Incident Response: We have procedures in place to respond quickly if a security breach occurs.

While we take every reasonable precaution, no online system is completely immune to threats. We encourage you to use strong passwords and enable two-factor authentication on your account.

4 Your Privacy Rights

Under Australian privacy law, you have several rights regarding your personal information. You can exercise these rights by contacting us directly:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you at any time
  • Request corrections to inaccurate or outdated information
  • Ask us to delete your data when it's no longer necessary
  • Object to processing of your information for specific purposes
  • Request data portability to transfer information to another service
  • Withdraw consent for data processing where applicable
  • Lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner

We typically respond to rights requests within 30 days. Some requests may take longer depending on complexity, but we'll keep you informed throughout the process.

5 Sharing and Third Parties

We sometimes need to share your information with trusted partners to deliver our services. Here's who we work with and why:

Partner Type Purpose Data Shared
Payment Processors To handle transactions securely Payment details, transaction amounts
Cloud Service Providers For secure data storage and hosting All data types as needed
Analytics Services To understand platform usage patterns Anonymized usage statistics
Customer Support Tools To manage support tickets efficiently Contact details, support history

All our partners are contractually required to protect your data and use it only for specified purposes. We vet these companies carefully before working with them.

6 Data Retention Periods

We don't keep your information longer than necessary. Different types of data have different retention schedules:

Account Information: Retained while your account is active, plus seven years after closure for regulatory compliance.

Transaction Records: Kept for seven years as required by Australian financial regulations.

Support Communications: Maintained for three years after resolution to help with similar issues.

Marketing Preferences: Stored until you withdraw consent or close your account.

Technical Logs: Typically deleted after 90 days unless needed for security investigations.

When we delete your data, we ensure it's removed from all systems, including backups, within a reasonable timeframe.

7 Cookies and Tracking

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to function properly. Some are essential, while others help us improve your experience. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.

We use three main types of cookies: essential ones that keep you logged in and the site working, analytics cookies that show us which features people use most, and preference cookies that remember your settings between visits.

Third-party services we integrate may also set their own cookies. These are governed by their respective privacy policies, which we encourage you to review.

8 International Data Transfers

While we primarily store data in Australia, some of our service providers operate internationally. When we transfer information overseas, we ensure adequate protections are in place through approved mechanisms.

These safeguards might include standard contractual clauses approved by privacy regulators, certification under recognized frameworks, or transfers to countries with adequate privacy laws.

You have the right to request information about where your data is stored and how it's protected during international transfers.

9 Children's Privacy

Our services aren't designed for anyone under 18. We don't knowingly collect information from children. If you're a parent who discovers your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it promptly.

If we learn we've inadvertently collected data from someone under 18, we'll take immediate steps to remove that information from our systems.

10 Changes to This Policy

We update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we'll notify you through email or a prominent notice on our platform.

The date at the top of this page shows when we last revised the policy. We encourage you to review it periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.

Continuing to use our services after changes take effect means you accept the updated policy. If you disagree with changes, you can close your account.
