Your privacy and security is important to us.
1.1 This policy applies to the fileinvite.com website, and all services we provide, including our automated document collection service provided via the FileInvite platform (collectively, our services). Part 1 describes how we will treat personal information collected or processed by us when you use our services. Part 2 of this policy describes how we use cookies, and Part 3 tells you how you can get in touch with us.
1.2 In this policy, 'we' (or 'us' / 'our') means FileInvite Limited, a company incorporated in New Zealand. Our address and contact details are set out in Part 3 of this policy.
This policy is governed by New Zealand law (refer to paragraph 13) and only people resident in the European Union are entitled as of right to the protections established by the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). However, we have decided to make those protections available to all our users, globally, as set out in this privacy policy.
1.3 The FileInvite platform operates as a hosted document collection service on behalf of other organisations. If an organisation sends you an invitation to use the FileInvite platform, in this scenario FileInvite acts only as the data processor. In such cases, the organisation that has sent you the invite will be the data controller and you will need to contact that organisation if you have any questions about how they process your personal information.
2.1 “Personal information” is the New Zealand term for “personal data” as defined in the GDPR. It means any information that can identify you either directly or indirectly (i.e. by reference to other information we have access to).
2.2 The term “processing” is used as defined in the GDPR. It includes collection, storage, and all of the ways we use personal information when we provide the FileInvite Platform to you.
2.3 “Data controller” means the entity which determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal information and “data processor” means the entity which processes personal information on behalf of the data controller.

3.4 Before you disclose to us the personal information of another person, you must obtain that person's consent to both the disclosure and the processing of that personal information in accordance with the terms of this policy. This includes where any Content contained in your clients' documents or files includes personal information. In respect of that Content, we will act as a processor of the personal information and process and use it only in accordance with your instructions. You will remain the controller of that information. Where the GDPR applies to that information, then the terms of our Data Processing Addendum (DPA) will apply (as between you and us) and sets out our responsibilities when it comes to our processing activities.
4.1 We rely upon a number of lawful grounds to ensure that our use of your personal information is compliant with applicable law. We set out the type of personal information, purpose for process and the legal grounds below.
