Data is hosted on managed cloud infrastructure with encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and at rest. Document files are stored in a private bucket accessible only via short-lived signed URLs.

Retention

We retain your data while your account is active. On account deletion we remove your data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.

Your rights

Under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) you may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information. You can do this from Settings or by emailing admin@subbiesafe.com.au. If you are not satisfied with our response you can lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au.

Subcontractors

If you are a subcontractor uploading documents via a portal link, the builder who invited you is the controller of that data. Contact them for access/deletion requests first; we will assist where required.
