All third parties must sign comprehensive data protection agreements and undergo regular security audits.

Legal Requirements

Under Australian law, we may be required to disclose personal information to government agencies, regulatory bodies, or law enforcement. This typically occurs in cases involving suspected financial crimes, regulatory investigations, or court orders. We will always notify you of such disclosures unless legally prohibited from doing so.

Your Privacy Rights

As an Australian resident, you have specific rights under the Privacy Act 1988 regarding your personal information. We've designed our platform to make exercising these rights as straightforward as possible.

Access and Correction

You can access most of your personal information directly through your miravonthera dashboard. For information not readily available, you can request a comprehensive data export by contacting our privacy team. If you notice any inaccuracies, you can update most details yourself or request corrections for information you cannot modify directly.

Data Deletion

You have the right to request deletion of your personal information. However, we may need to retain certain records for regulatory compliance, particularly transaction histories and identity verification documents. When you close your account, we'll delete all non-essential data within 30 days and clearly explain what information we're required to retain and for how long.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise any privacy rights or submit a complaint, contact our Privacy Officer directly. We aim to respond to all privacy requests within 30 days and provide regular updates if additional time is needed for complex requests.

Data Security Measures

Protecting your financial information requires multiple layers of security. We employ bank-grade encryption, secure data centers, and continuous monitoring to safeguard your personal data against unauthorized access, theft, or misuse.

Technical Safeguards

  • 256-bit SSL encryption for all data transmission
  • Advanced encryption at rest for stored data
  • Multi-factor authentication for account access
  • Regular security audits and penetration testing
  • Automated threat detection and response systems
  • Secure API integrations with banking partners

Operational Security

Our team undergoes comprehensive security training, and access to personal data is strictly controlled based on job requirements. We maintain detailed audit logs of all data access and regularly review access permissions. Our data centers are located within Australia and comply with Australian data sovereignty requirements.

International Data Transfers

While we primarily store data within Australia, some of our service providers operate internationally. When data must be transferred overseas, we ensure adequate protection through approved mechanisms such as Privacy Act exemptions or binding corporate rules.

Any international transfers are limited to what's necessary for service provision and are subject to contractual protections that meet Australian privacy standards. We regularly audit our international service providers to ensure ongoing compliance.

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings, though disabling certain cookies may limit platform functionality. We provide detailed cookie information in your account settings, where you can also opt out of non-essential cookies.
