Privacy Policy

Ochre Ventures respects your privacy and is committed to handling your personal information responsibly, in line with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) and the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and disclose your personal information.

Who we are

Ochre Ventures Pty Ltd (ACN 654 061 882, AR# 1313680) and Ochre Management Pty Ltd (ACN 678 127 172, AR# 1313681) are part of the Ochre Group of companies. Each entity is a corporate authorised representative of Boutique Capital Pty Ltd (AFSL 508011). We focus on investing in and supporting First Nations businesses across Australia.

What personal information we collect

We may collect personal information including:

  • Your name, contact details, and identification

  • Information about your business, if you are seeking investment

  • Financial information, if you are an investor or partner

  • Any other personal data provided when you communicate with us

We only collect information that is reasonably necessary for our activities — such as assessing investment opportunities, managing relationships, or complying with legal obligations like anti-money laundering (AML/CTF) requirements.

We may also collect limited sensitive information (such as cultural or ethnic background) where it is relevant and with your consent.

How we collect personal information

We collect personal information in several ways, including:

  • Directly from you (via our website, email, forms, or meetings)

  • Through third-party service providers (e.g. fund administrators or identification verification tools)

  • From publicly available sources

We also use cookies on our website to improve your experience and understand how users interact with our content.

How we use personal information

We use your personal information to:

  • Evaluate investment proposals

  • Manage relationships with founders, investors, and partners

  • Comply with regulatory and legal requirements

  • Communicate with you about our activities or events

  • Improve our website and internal processes

We do not sell your personal information. We may share it with service providers who support our business (like legal, accounting, or IT services), and they are required to handle your data securely.

Cross-border disclosure

Your data may be stored or processed outside Australia (e.g. via cloud providers). While we aim to work with trusted partners, overseas jurisdictions may not have the same privacy protections. By using our services, you consent to this overseas transfer.

Security and storage

We take reasonable steps to secure your personal information from misuse, interference, and unauthorised access. Your information may be stored electronically or in physical files and is retained only as long as needed for business or legal purposes.

Access, correction, and complaints

You may request access to or correction of the personal information we hold about you. You can also contact us if you have a concern about your privacy or believe we have breached the Privacy Act.

To do so, please Contact Us.

We will respond promptly and aim to resolve any complaints within 30 days. If you're not satisfied with our response, you can contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available on our website.
