Security & Compliance

A technology provider. Not a migration agent.

Certiva is engineered around the legal, regulatory, and data realities of Australian sponsored migration , without crossing into regulated migration advice.

Posture

The stance Certiva takes.

OMARA-aware fee structure

Fees are structured as software licensing, data management, and platform services , distinct from migration advice provided by the agency.

Employer-paid model support

Workflow and billing align with the no-cost-to-worker requirements of subclasses like 482, where the employer is required to fund sponsorship costs.

APP-aligned data handling

Storage, access, and retention practices align with the Australian Privacy Principles for sensitive identity documents.

Encryption in transit & at rest

TLS for every connection. Encrypted storage for passports, medicals, and skills assessments.

Full audit trail

Every upload, view, status change, and form generation is logged and exportable for compliance reviews.

Australian data residency

Sensitive matter data is hosted within Australia by default for sponsored visa workflows.

Boundaries

What we are. What we are not.

We are
  • A technology platform for managing sponsored visa workflows
  • A document and intake management system
  • A form population and submission engine

We are not
  • A registered migration agent or legal practitioner
  • A provider of immigration advice, opinions, or eligibility assessments
  • A signatory on lodged applications
  • A representative before the Department of Home Affairs
