We recognize the sensitivity of the information entrusted to us—often involving private individuals, corporations, or ongoing legal matters—and are committed to handling that information lawfully, ethically, and confidentially.

This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, store, and disclose information through olytac.com, in person, and in the course of investigative or security operations.

D. Sensitive or Restricted Data

When authorized by law or client contract, we may handle information classified as sensitive—e.g., criminal history, financial data, or medical records—strictly for legitimate investigative, security, or legal purposes and subject to confidentiality obligations.

3. Purpose and Legal Basis

OlyTac collects and processes data for the following lawful purposes:

Preventing, detecting, or reporting criminal activity or fraud
Complying with subpoenas, court orders, or regulatory inquiries
Managing client relationships and billing

Enhancing website usability and communications

Where required by the GDPR or other applicable law, we rely on legitimate interest, contractual necessity, legal obligation, or consent as the legal basis for processing.

4. Information Sharing and Disclosure

We disclose personal information only:

To licensed subcontractors, analysts, or consultants bound by confidentiality and data-protection agreements
To attorneys, insurers, or clients strictly for purposes related to the engagement
To law enforcement or government agencies when legally required or in cooperation with active investigations
When necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of OlyTac, our clients, or the public

We do not sell or trade personal information.

5. Data Retention and Evidence Handling

Consistent with RCW 18.165.150 and applicable federal and state evidentiary standards:

Case records, surveillance media, and reports are retained for a minimum of five (5) years from completion of the investigation unless otherwise required by law or court order.
Digital evidence is stored in encrypted, access-controlled repositories.
Upon expiration of retention periods, data are securely destroyed via cryptographic erasure or physical destruction.

6. Data Security

We employ layered safeguards including:

Encrypted transmission (TLS 1.2+) and storage (AES-256)
Access controls and authentication for all case files
Secure off-site backups
Regular audits of information-system access logs
Contractor confidentiality and cybersecurity training

While no system can guarantee absolute security, we maintain controls consistent with NIST SP 800-171 and CJIS best practices.

7. Public Records and Law-Enforcement Exceptions

As a private licensed entity, OlyTac is not subject to the Washington Public Records Act (RCW 42.56). However, we may receive or handle records originating from public agencies. In such cases, we preserve confidentiality to the maximum extent permitted by law and limit disclosure to lawful requests or client authorization.
