Seglo Phone Privacy Policy
Last updated: 7 July 2026
1. Who we are
SEGLO PTY LTD (ABN 65 694 776 488) is an Australian company. In this Privacy Policy,
"Seglo", "we", "us" and "our" refers to Seglo in its operation of Seglo Phone, a
software platform that provides the user interface, application logic and cloud hosting
through which the Client operates its own telephony service.
This Privacy Policy applies to the Seglo Phone product only. Seglo's appointment and
business-management platform is covered by a separate privacy policy.
We comply with the *Privacy Act 1988* (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles
("APPs").
2. Bring-Your-Own-SIM
Seglo Phone operates on a Bring-Your-Own-SIM basis. The underlying carriage of calls,
SMS and MMS is provided by the Client's own third-party telecommunications carrier. That
carrier collects and handles information under its own privacy policy, over which Seglo
has no control.
3. Information we collect
IP address, push notification tokens, diagnostic and crash logs.
duration, and volume/frequency of communications.
Client enables it — call recordings and voicemail, processed to transmit, deliver and
store the Client's communications (not analysed for monitoring — see clause 5).
4. How we use information
(message volume, frequency, velocity and usage patterns) — see clause 5.
5. Encryption, and monitoring by metadata only
Communications data is encrypted in transit and encrypted at rest.
We do not monitor, read or intercept the content of communications. Our automated
compliance systems operate on metadata and traffic data only — usage patterns,
message velocity, volume, frequency and similar signals — solely for network security,
platform stability, and enforcing our Fair Use Policy (including spam and abuse
prevention). Message content is processed only to the extent technically necessary to
transmit, deliver and store communications, or where strictly necessary to provide
support or comply with a lawful request.
6. Disclosure to third parties
We disclose personal information to:
behalf.
authorised by law.
We do not sell personal information. We require our service providers to protect personal
information consistently with this Policy and the APPs.
7. Overseas disclosure
Our primary infrastructure is hosted in Australia (AWS ap-southeast-2). Some service
providers may store or process data outside Australia — likely locations include
Singapore and the United States. Where we disclose personal information overseas, we
take reasonable steps under APP 8 to ensure the recipient handles it consistently with
the APPs, including contractual safeguards.
8. Data retention
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to provide the Platform,
meet our legal, tax and regulatory obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our
agreements. Where the Client controls Client Content, retention is also subject to the
Client's instructions and the applicable Terms of Service.
9. Roles and responsibilities
As between Seglo and the Client, the Client is responsible for the lawful collection,
use and disclosure of the communications data it routes through the Platform, including
obtaining any consents required from its own customers and message recipients.
10. Access, correction and complaints
You may request access to, or correction of, the personal information we hold about you,
and you may make a privacy complaint, by contacting us at [email protected]. We will
respond within a reasonable period. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may
contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au.
11. Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information
from misuse, interference, loss, and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. No
system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
If we become aware of an eligible data breach that is likely to result in serious harm,
we will assess, contain and notify affected individuals and the Office of the Australian
Information Commissioner (OAIC) as required by Part IIIC of the *Privacy Act 1988* (Cth)
(the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme), and will notify the Client without undue delay of
any breach affecting Client Content so the Client can meet its own obligations.
12. Children
Seglo Phone is a business tool and is not directed at children under 16. We do not
knowingly collect personal information from children under 16.
13. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The current version is always
available within the Platform and at our published URL, with the effective date shown
above.
