Privacy Policy

Who we are

This website is published by ConstructOS. For a privacy question, or to ask for access or a correction, email admin@constructos.au.

Information this website collects

Depending on how you use the site, we may hold:

• Beta sign-up details. The enquiry form on the home page asks for your name and email address. You can also give a company name, what you are interested in, and a short message. The website sends those details to our inbox through Resend, an email service provider. Resend may store that message in the United States.
• Contact details. If you email us, including from the contact page, we collect your email address and anything you choose to include in the message.
• Usage data. Our server may log your IP address, the date and time, the page you requested, and your browser type. We use those logs to run the site, keep it secure, and fix faults.
• Cookies and similar storage. This website stores your Black or White theme choice in local storage on your device. It stays on your device and is not used to follow you across other websites. We do not use advertising cookies.

This marketing site does not ask you to create an account. Signing in happens on the app at app.constructos.au, which has its own notice.

Why we use it

We use this information to:

• reply to a beta request or another message you send;
• consider whether to include you in the private beta;
• operate, secure, and fix the website;
• meet a legal duty to keep a record, where one applies;
• tell you about ConstructOS where the law allows direct marketing, as set out below.

We do not sell personal information.

Who we share it with

People at ConstructOS who need the details to answer you can see them. Our hosting provider stores the site and its logs. Our email provider stores messages you send us. We may disclose information to a professional adviser, or to an authority, when the law requires it. We do not pass your details to advertisers.

The private beta form on the home page delivers your enquiry to admin@constructos.au through Resend, an email service provider that may store that message in the United States.

Overseas disclosure

The website is hosted in the cloud. That hosting, and the usage logs that come with it, may be outside Australia, including in Singapore. Email and productivity providers that store messages you send us, including Resend, may hold them outside Australia, including in the United States. Where we disclose personal information overseas, we do so as the Privacy Act allows. That includes where the recipient is required to handle the information in line with the Australian Privacy Principles, or where you agree.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference and loss, and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. Those steps include limiting access to people who need it to answer you, and using the controls our hosting and email providers offer. No website or email service is completely secure.

How long we keep it

We keep personal information only for as long as we need it for the purpose we collected it. That includes the time we need to reply to you and to keep a basic record of the request. We may also keep it where a law requires a record. When we no longer need it, we delete it or de-identify it.

Access and correction

You can ask for a copy of the personal information we hold about you, and you can ask us to correct it if it is wrong, out of date, or incomplete. Email admin@constructos.au. We will respond within a reasonable time, usually within 30 days. If we refuse, we will tell you why, unless the law says we should not, and how you can complain.

Direct marketing

We may use your contact details to tell you about ConstructOS where the law allows, including where you asked us to, or where you would reasonably expect it because you asked about the product. You can opt out at any time by emailing admin@constructos.au. If we send you a marketing email, it will include a way to opt out. We will stop using your details for direct marketing when you opt out.

Complaints

If you have a complaint about how we handle personal information, contact us first at admin@constructos.au. Please include your name, how to reach you, and what happened. We will look into it and reply.

If you are not satisfied with our reply, you can contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au.

Notifiable Data Breaches

We follow the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme in the Privacy Act. If a data breach is likely to cause serious harm, and we cannot prevent that harm, we will notify the people affected and the OAIC as the scheme requires.

Children

This website is written for businesses. It is not aimed at children.

Changes

We may update this policy. When we do, we will change the date at the top of this page. The new policy applies from that date.
