Vortex Team LLC (“we,” “our,” or “us”) operates as a premier software engineering, cloud architecture, and technical consulting provider. We take the security, integrity, and privacy of your corporate and personal data with the utmost seriousness.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, process, safeguard, and share information when you visit our website,interact with our service portals, execute checkout transactions, or engage our engineering teams for custom development and infrastructure management.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information only to the extent necessary to provide secure, high-performance technical services to our clients.
A. Information You Provide Voluntarily
Corporate Contact & Billing Data: When you request a proposal, register an account, or initiate an engagement via our checkout portal, we collect your name, corporate email address, phone number, company name, job title,and billing address.
Payment Card Data (PCI DSS Compliance): Vortex Team LLC does not collect, store, or process full credit card numbers, CVVs, or bank account credentials on its own servers. All payment transactions are processed directly by certified third-party merchant service and payment gateways (e.g., Authorize.net / SoarPay, Maverick) compliant with PCI DSS Level 1 standards. We only receive limited transaction metadata (e.g., payment status,transaction ID, card brand, last 4 digits).
Project Communications: We store written project scopes, feedback loops, and tracking discussions submitted via email, portal ticket systems, or project management integrations.
B. Technical, Checkout, & Infrastructure Data
During active checkout workflows, platform interactions, or infrastructure management tracks, we handle specific technical metadata required for operational integrity:
Checkout Acceptance & Audit Logs: When you accept our Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy during checkout or contract signature, our systems automatically generate an immutable consent record containing your account ID, timestamp (UTC), IP address, user-agent string, and the exact version of the legal agreements accepted.
System Metadata & Logs: IP addresses, runtime log snippets, endpoint configurations, and performance metrics explicitly routed through our monitoring pipelines for system troubleshooting and security auditing.
Repository Access Logs: Version control tracking data (such as GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket usernames and commit histories) generated when your team collaborates with our engineers.
2. How We Use Your Information
Vortex Team LLC uses collected data strictly for legal, operational, and project delivery frameworks:
To Engineer & Deliver Services: Managing custom software pipelines, deploying cloud architectures, and fulfilling contractual Statements of Work (SOWs).
To Process Transactions & Record Consent: Verifying authorization, generating billing invoices, processing payment receipts via payment gateways, and maintaining legal records of accepted terms.
To Provide Technical Support: Triaging incoming incident tickets, analyzing application performance degradation, and deploying infrastructure hotfixes.
To Safeguard System Integrity: Auditing infrastructure access logs, detecting unauthorized system entry attempts,and mitigating technical vulnerabilities.
3. Data Retention & Minimization
We operate under strict data minimization principles. We do not retain your data longer than is necessary to fulfill operational purposes or satisfy statutory legal, tax, and accounting obligations.
Client Access Credentials & Infrastructure Keys: Production database tokens, environment keys, and server access credentials are securely purged or revoked upon project completion, UAT acceptance, or SOW termination.
Checkout & Consent Audit Logs: Retained for the lifetime of the client account plus up to 5 years to defend against potential legal claims or compliance disputes.
Account & Billing Records: Retained for the duration of your active Master Services Agreement, plus the statutory retention period required by applicable legal and tax frameworks (typically 6–7 years for accounting ledgers).
4. Information Sharing & Third-Party Processors
Vortex Team LLC will never sell, lease, or monetize your corporate or personal information. We share data only with trusted, enterprise-grade third-party processors necessary to run our infrastructure and business services:
Cloud Infrastructure Providers: Secure hosting, managed database storage, and logging infrastructure (e.g.,AWS, Google Cloud Platform, Vercel).
Payment Processors & Merchant Gateways: PCI-compliant payment processing solutions (e.g., Authorize.net / SoarPay, Maverick) that securely handle payment processing, merchant settlement, and subscription routing.
Operational & Collaboration Tools: Repository hosting platforms, ticketing software, and communication tools used during engineering sprints.
All third-party processors are vetted to ensure they maintain appropriate technical security controls and adhere to international data protection standards.
5. Security & Technical Safeguards
Because our core focus centers on technical software engineering, our data protections are backed by practical industry safeguards:
Data Encryption: All communications with our web portals and API endpoints are encrypted in transit using industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.2+). Database storage and static assets rely on managed cloud encryption at rest (such as AWS KMS / AES-256 standard encryption algorithms).
Access Control & Isolation: We enforce strict Identity and Access Management (IAM) controls and role-based permissions, limiting infrastructure access strictly to team members assigned to your specific project track.
Security Logging: Operational portals and server deployments maintain standard audit trails and access logging to monitor system integrity and investigate technical anomalies.
6. Your Data Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you possess legal rights regarding your personal information, including:
The Right to Access: Requesting a copy of the personal and billing contact data we maintain regarding your account.
The Right to Rectification: Requesting the correction of inaccurate or outdated corporate contact details.
The Right to Erasure: Requesting the deletion of your personal data, subject to outstanding statutory accounting or legal retention requirements.
The Right to Data Portability: Requesting that we export your profile records into a structured, universally readable format.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact our compliance desk using the details below.
7. Amendments to This Privacy Policy
Vortex Team LLC reserves the right to periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our engineering workflows, technical infrastructure, legal compliance requirements, or checkout procedures. Any updates will be published with a revised “Last Updated” timestamp at the top of this document.
