Privacy Policy
At GRAFFIPREP | Graphic Prep Specialists, we recognize that your brand assets are your most valuable intellectual property. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information and files when you use our technical graphic restoration services.
1. Commitment to the NZ Privacy Act 2020
GRAFFIPREP is a New Zealand-based entity. We manage all personal information and digital assets in strict accordance with the Privacy Act 2020 and its 13 Information Privacy Principles. This ensures your data is handled with transparency, security, and accountability.
2. Information We Collect
To provide our "Stop the Blur" technical services, we collect:
-
Contact Information: Name, email address, and phone number provided during the quote or order process.
-
Digital Assets: "Fuzzy" AI-generated images, low-resolution logos, and other graphic files you upload for restoration.
-
Transaction Data: Records of services purchased (payment details are handled via secure, PCI-compliant third-party processors; we do not store your credit card numbers).
-
Technical Metadata: Anonymized data (IP addresses, browser types) collected via cookies to improve our website’s performance for the NZ small business community.
3. Purpose of Data Collection
We collect this information strictly for:
-
Performing manual vectorization and technical print audits.
-
Communicating regarding quotes, order status, and file delivery.
-
Internal quality control to ensure your files meet our "Guaranteed Sharp" standards.
4. AI Transparency & Professional Workflow
To deliver industry-leading precision, GRAFFIPREP utilizes a "Human-in-the-Loop" workflow.
-
Professional Tooling: We use advanced Adobe AI-enhanced diagnostic and restoration tools to assist in our manual process.
-
Data Security: Unlike public, free AI generators, our professional tools operate in a secure, controlled environment. Your uploaded assets are not used to train public AI models or shared with third-party AI databases for their own purposes.
-
Manual Oversight: Every technical decision is made by a human specialist to ensure your brand integrity remains intact.
5. File Storage & Retention Policy
We act as a temporary technical vault for your graphics:
-
Security: Files are stored on encrypted drives accessible only by our technical specialists.
-
Retention: We retain your "before" and "after" files for 30 days following delivery as a courtesy backup. After 30 days, files are moved to a secure offline archive or permanently deleted. You may request immediate deletion of your files at any time.
6. Intellectual Property & Ownership
While this is a privacy policy, we believe in total transparency regarding your assets:
-
You retain full ownership of the original assets you provide.
-
Upon full payment, all rights to the final restored vector files are transferred to you.
-
We will not use your restored graphics for our own marketing or "Before & After" portfolio without your implicit or explicit consent.
7. Disclosure of Information
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information or brand assets. Data is only shared with:
-
Trusted payment processors to complete your transaction.
-
Law enforcement if required by New Zealand law.
8. Cookies and Tracking
Our website uses cookies to analyze traffic patterns and user behavior in the Auckland and broader New Zealand market. This helps us optimize our "Graphic Prep" tools for our target audience. You can opt out of cookies via your browser settings.
9. Your Rights: Access and Correction
Under the Privacy Act 2020, you have the right to:
-
Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.

Request that any incorrect information be corrected.
