How we collect and store your information

When we receive any information about you, whether through your self-service portal or from your employer, this information is owned by your employer and is kept private to be seen only by users authorized by your employer. We do not share this information with anyone unless legally required to do so.

We are not responsible for your employer\’s decision on who has access to your information or how do they use it, your employer is bound by Privacy Act on their own terms. We work together with your employer to make sure your information is safe, by implementing best practice and monitoring access.

You may request your employer to provide you with information on who has access to your information and what procedures are in place to ensure your privacy is protected.

We require all users to maintain passwords and each log in event is allowed only if a second verification is passed: e-mail access verification or mobile phone-based authentication, to protect your data from being accessed without authorization

We may be required to provide this information to government bodies upon legally binding request (such as subpoena), and we will act on this request.

We may access and use your information if we receive a service request from your employer and your file is related to this request, as well as for Statistical and Analytical purposes and Error management (see Definitions on this page).

Our Team follows security procedures in relation to accessing your information and is bound to keep it secret. We also monitor our procedures and activities to ensure your information is safe with us.

We store your historical information and your employer can access this information. For example, when you change your address, employer can still see your previous address in your history. All backups of your information are encrypted and can only be accessed by us.

When you use our platform

Information you produce in our platform will belong to the owner of Business File / Employer you have signed up to. We keep this information for the use and benefit of the employer.

Information we gather includes your edits of information you have access to, including date and time when it happens. History of edits can be accessed by your employer.

We may use this information for our Statistical and Analytical purposes and Error management (see Definitions on this page).

Your User Account and link to other employers / business files

When signing up, you will create your personal User account with olivs.app. This account is yours – separate from your employer and managed directly between you and us – and information we keep there is yours as well. You can use this account to connect to other employers. User account is linked to your e-mail address and if you don\’t control your e-mail address, your access to this user may be taken over by whoever controls your e-mail address. In such case, your employer could change your password but cannot see your existing password. Until your employer takes over your account by changing your password via e-mail link, they do not see if you are connected to any other businesses. We recommend you use your personal e-mail address, especially if you intend to use your account to access multiple employers / your own businesses. You can also have multiple User accounts, using different e-mail addresses.

When you use our mobile phone applications

When you send with any information through our app installed on your phone, this information is also owned by your Employer. It is used in accordance with their privacy policy.

We can use your information to provide service assistance to your employer, and anonymously for statistical and analytical purposes.

How can you access your information

The easiest option is to contact your employer directly, as they know you. You may request a self-service access to see and change all information.

If you are no longer employed by the employer, you may still request your employer to provide your information to you, for up to 7 years (legal requirements).

We may only share your information with you directly only on these terms:

  • by providing you with requested extracts, not by giving you access to employer, and
  • if you provide us with a legally binding request (such as a subpoena) and you provide identification that will satisfy us that it is really you, and
  • reasonable cost of processing this request are prepaid.
