  1. How We Collect Information

We collect information in the following ways:

  • Directly from You: When you register, log in, submit support requests, or provide location details via the App’s forms or settings.
  • Automatically: Through device permissions (e.g., location services, with your consent), analytics SDKs, or log data collection that tracks App usage and performance.
  • From Third Parties: Via trusted partners, such as app stores (e.g., Google Play, Apple App Store), analytics providers, or support service providers, who share data in compliance with privacy laws.
  1. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

  • Use location details (with your consent) to dispatch field support or enable location-based features (e.g., identifying nearby service locations).

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information with:

  1. Device Permissions and Tracking Technologies

The App may request device permissions or use tracking technologies to provide its features:

  • Device Identifiers: Unique identifiers (e.g., device ID) to ensure App functionality and security.

We may use third-party code or libraries that employ cookies or similar technologies (e.g., for analytics).

Disabling permissions may affect App functionality, such as location-based support or notifications.

  1. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures, including encryption, secure servers, and access controls, to protect your personal information. For example, account credentials and support data are encrypted during transmission and storage. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. We will notify you and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) of any eligible data breaches as required by law.

  1. Data Retention

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, meet legal obligations, or resolve disputes. For example:

  • Support and location data is retained for 7 years to comply with Australian tax laws and support ongoing service agreements.
  • Account information is retained until you request deletion or your account becomes inactive for 2 years, after which we may delete it.
  • Non-personal data (e.g., aggregated analytics) may be retained indefinitely for App improvement.

If you request deletion of your information, we will comply unless we are required to retain it for legal purposes (e.g., tax records).

  1. International Data Transfers

Your information, including location or support data, may be processed or stored outside Australia by our service providers (e.g., cloud hosting providers). We ensure that such transfers comply with the APPs, using safeguards like standard contractual clauses or ensuring the recipient is subject to equivalent privacy laws.
