Privacy Policy
How TrevantaLegals handles personal data and case documents.
1. Scope
This policy is maintained by TrevantaLegals and explains how personal data is handled on the public website and within the case registry. It applies to parties, counsel, neutrals, case managers and empanelment applicants.
This page is app-owned editable content. It describes the institution's own practices; it is not an independent certification or audit.
2. Data we collect
- Account data: name, email address, telephone number, organisation and role.
- Case data: pleadings, annexures, correspondence, orders, awards and hearing records uploaded to a case.
- Empanelment data: professional particulars, qualifications, experience and the curriculum vitae you upload.
- Operational data: log records of sign-in, document access and case activity, kept for security and audit.
3. How we use it
- To register, administer and progress a case.
- To appoint and support neutrals, case managers and counsel.
- To notify participants of filings, listings and outcomes.
- To assess empanelment applications.
- To secure the platform, investigate misuse and comply with legal obligations.
4. Lawful basis
Personal data is processed on the basis of your consent given at registration, the performance of the arrangement under which a case is administered, the institution's legitimate interest in operating a secure registry, and compliance with applicable law.
5. Access within the platform
Access to a case record is restricted to the participants assigned to that case — the parties and their counsel, the appointed neutral, the assigned case manager, and authorised registry administrators. Access rules are enforced at the database layer, not only in the interface.
Curricula vitae submitted for empanelment are visible only to the empanelment committee and authorised administrators.
6. Sharing
Personal data is not sold, rented or used for advertising. Data is shared only with the participants of a case, with the institution's service providers acting on instructions, and where disclosure is required by law or by an order of a competent authority.
7. Storage and security
Data is held on managed cloud infrastructure with encryption in transit. Case documents are stored in private storage buckets that are not publicly readable, and access is granted per participant.
The institution applies role-based access control, activity logging and least-privilege administration. No system can be guaranteed absolutely secure; you should notify the registry immediately if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.
8. Retention
Case records are retained for the period required by law and by the institution's retention schedule, after which they are archived or securely destroyed. Empanelment applications not accepted are retained for a limited period for record purposes and then deleted.
9. Your rights
- Access the personal data held about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Request deletion, subject to the institution's obligation to preserve case records.
- Withdraw consent to optional processing.
- Raise a grievance with the institution's grievance contact.
10. Cookies
The platform uses strictly necessary cookies and local storage to maintain your signed-in session and security state. It does not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
11. Children
The platform is not directed to persons who lack capacity to contract. Where a minor is a party to a proceeding, participation is through a guardian or authorised representative.
12. Changes
This policy may be updated as the platform evolves. The current version is always published on this page and takes effect on publication.
13. Contact
Privacy questions, access requests and grievances may be sent to the registry through the contact page, marked for the attention of the Grievance Officer.
