Privacy Policy
Last updated: 24 July 2025
Declarative Technologies (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates https://dectech.au (“Site”). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting any personal data we process. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and how you can exercise your rights.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Cloudflare Logs
To deliver, secure, and optimize our Site, we use Cloudflare as a Content Delivery Network (CDN) and security provider. Cloudflare automatically processes and stores certain technical information about visitor requests, including:
- IP address
- Browser and device type
- Requested URL and HTTP status code
- Referral URL
- Date and time of request
We do not access or store this raw log data ourselves—it remains with Cloudflare under their Privacy Policy. We may view aggregated or anonymized analytics provided by Cloudflare to monitor site performance and security.
1.2 Strictly Necessary Cookies
No personal tracking or marketing cookies are set by us. Cloudflare may set essential cookies (e.g., __cfduid) to support security features, load balancing, and DDoS protection. These cookies are classified as strictly necessary and do not require your consent.
2. How We Use Information
We use Cloudflare-collected data solely for:
- DDoS protection and security filtering
- Global performance optimization and caching
- Diagnostic troubleshooting and uptime monitoring
- Aggregated analytics to improve site reliability
We do not use or share this information for marketing, profiling, or advertising.
3. Third-Party Services
3.1 Cloudflare
Cloudflare acts as our data processor. You can review Cloudflare’s privacy commitments here: https://www.cloudflare.com/legal/privacy-policy/
3.2 WordPress
Our Site runs on WordPress; however, we have disabled all comment and tracking features. WordPress itself only sets authentication cookies if an admin logs in.
4. Data Retention
We do not retain personal data beyond what is necessary for Site security and performance. Raw logs remain with Cloudflare according to their retention policies. We do not store IP addresses or request metadata in our own systems.
5. Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect data processed on our behalf by Cloudflare. However, no system can guarantee perfect security; to learn more, please see Cloudflare’s security whitepapers.
6. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Access: Request a copy of personal data we process.
- Correction: Ask us to correct inaccurate data.
- Deletion: Request deletion of any personal data we hold (where legally permissible).
- Objection: Object to processing for certain purposes (e.g., analytics).
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details below.
