The Assessment App collects data that you enter in to the various fields and pages. This data includes sensitive personal information that is entered by you for the purpose of being transferred to The Firm.

We use such data to help us understand how our visitors use the Assessment App, to address performance issues and to manage security.

Encryption for storage is applied at the time the data and files are saved or submitted.

This Assessment App uses Azure for data storage using exclusively its data centres in Australia. Azure stores data over several large-scale data centres. According to Azure, they use military grade perimeter control berms, video surveillance, and professional security staff to keep their data centres physically secure. You can find more information about Azure’s security on their website.

When you submit your Assessment, your data and files are sent between the Assessment App’s, the Assessment servers and The Firm’s processing software over an encrypted and secure channel using 256-bit SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption, the standard for secure Internet network connections.

Once your data is submitted, your data is stored by The Firm and authorised staff at The Firm will be able to view the data you have provided via their Migration Manager desktop software.
