Privacy Policy

Effective date: 14 November 2026 · Operator: Dean Collins trading as Aurelia Systems / Velvet Cadence (ABN 61 794 639 443), Queensland, Australia · Contact: velvet.cadence.os@gmail.com

This policy explains how Velvet Cadence and Aurelia OS handle information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), to the extent applicable.

1. How the workspace stores data

The public workspace does not require a username or password for trial use. Deadlines, cloud pointer labels, trial status and draft posts you create in the workspace are stored locally in your browser using localStorage (keys: aurelia.workspace.v1, aurelia.trial.v1, aurelia.drafts.v1).

Because this data sits in your browser on your device, anyone with access to that browser profile can view or clear it. Do not enter confidential board papers, client secrets or regulated personal data on a shared computer. You can remove local data at any time using the Clear All Data button in the workspace.

2. Cloud files and media

This release does not upload raw video, documents or cloud files to Aurelia servers. Cloud pointer entries store short metadata labels and deep-link URIs on your device. Direct Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive and Apple iCloud picker integrations are roadmap items and are not enabled in this release.

3. Payments and billing

Card payments are processed by Stripe. When you use a Stripe Checkout or Payment Link, Stripe collects your payment method, email address, billing details and transaction metadata under Stripe’s Privacy Policy. We do not receive or store your full card number.

If you request a corporate EFT invoice or email us a Stripe receipt for activation, we receive the name, company name, email address and invoice reference you send to velvet.cadence.os@gmail.com.

4. Where information is processed

The public website is hosted on GitHub Pages, payments are processed by Stripe, and support email is handled via Gmail. These providers may process data in Australia, the United States and other countries where their infrastructure operates. If you require strict Australian-only data residency for government, health or regulated workloads, do not submit regulated data through the public site; contact us before purchasing.

5. Access, correction, deletion and complaints

To clear workspace data stored in your browser, click Clear All Data in the workspace or clear your browser storage. To request access to, correction of, or deletion of billing/support records held by us, or to make a privacy complaint, email velvet.cadence.os@gmail.com. We will respond within 14 days. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au.
