That's not what Trustico are saying in their fulfilment emails (received during 
the purchase of a Trustico® certificate through Comodo CA this morning):

'If you chose to have us generate your CSR during the ordering process, you 
will need to contact us for a copy of your corresponding Private Key. Your 
Private Key is not included within this e-mail for security reasons.

If you decided to provide your own CSR, we don't have access to your Private 
Key. It will already reside on your device or server.'

'If you chose to have us generate your CSR during the ordering process, your 
Private Key will only be saved within our systems for the next 14 days.'
