Your data & Privacy

To provide our services effectively, we collect and manage building-related data, which may include:

• Structural and architectural records
• Compliance records
• Defect and renovation history
• Maintenance planning records
• Lease agreements
• Sales and property management records
• Quantified building data – Capturing measurements, materials, conditions, and other quantifiable aspects of the property for accurate reporting and analysis.
• Sustainability records – Data on energy efficiency, water usage, insulation, renewable energy installations, and environmental compliance.

Arcsite and Residential Reports retain operational ownership of the collected data to ensure we can provide accurate, high-quality services. Building owners and leaseholders may access relevant data pertaining to their property but do not obtain full ownership of the records. We may use anonymised, aggregated data to enhance services, improve compliance reporting, and support industry research.

The data collected is used to:

• Prepare presale reports and compliance assessments
• Prepare building handover reports
• Support efficient building management and maintenance
• Assess compliance with local building codes and regulations
• Assist with property transactions and legal requirements

Data collected is intended to benefit the building owner, intended owner, or tenant of the property. We also strive to improve our services over time and may use aggregated data to develop new tools, industry insights, and compliance solutions.

While Arcsite and Residential Reports retains operational ownership of the data to fulfill service obligations, building owners hold the right to access data related to their property.

Third-Party Disclosure

• Data may be disclosed to government regulators as required by policy or law or as part of a formal compliance review.

Arcsite and Residential Reports maintains a register of building data. Leaseholders may access data relevant to their occupancy, such as maintenance records and compliance documentation, upon providing valid identification and proof of tenancy.

We implement robust technical and organisational measures to protect data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. While we are committed to safeguarding your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the event of a data breach, affected parties will be promptly notified, and all necessary steps will be taken to mitigate the impact.

Building owners and leaseholders may use data for personal or property-related purposes, but collected data may not be reproduced, resold, or commercially distributed without written permission.
