This policy explains how Innoca Tech Pty Ltd ("Innoca Tech", "HEC", "we", "us") manages personal information. It is separate from our Consumer Data Right Policy, which applies to CDR data.

1. Information we collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:

2. How we collect information

We collect information directly from you, from people acting for your organisation, through our website and portal, through connected services you authorise, and from public or business sources where reasonably necessary for our services.

3. Why we use information

We use personal information to provide and administer our services; prepare quotes and invoices; deliver projects; communicate with clients; operate our portal and connected workflows; manage payments; maintain business records; improve service quality; prevent misuse and security incidents; and comply with legal obligations.

4. Disclosure

We may disclose information to service providers that help us operate our business, such as hosting, email, document storage, payment, accounting, communications and technology providers, and to professional advisers or authorities where required by law. We do not sell personal information.

5. Overseas handling

Some non-CDR service providers may operate infrastructure or support services outside Australia. Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps appropriate to the service and information involved. CDR data is handled under the separate Consumer Data Right Policy and is subject to stricter controls.

Controls include access restrictions, authentication, logging, network security, backups, patching and security review appropriate to the system.

7. Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably required for the purpose for which it was collected, legal and contractual obligations, dispute resolution, security and legitimate business record-keeping. Information is deleted or de-identified when it is no longer reasonably required, subject to lawful retention requirements.
