5. Cookies, Analytics and Similar Tools
We may use cookies, pixels, local storage and similar technologies. These tools can help the website function correctly, remember consent choices, measure general traffic, identify technical issues and improve content.
We may use the following broad categories:
| Category | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Strictly necessary technologies | Security, session management, accessibility and consent settings |
| Functional technologies | Remembering optional visitor preferences |
| Analytics technologies | Understanding general page visits, traffic sources and technical performance |
| Advertising technologies | Measuring campaign performance or limiting repeated advertising, where used and permitted |
Where required, we will ask for consent before placing or accessing optional cookies. You can review or change cookie preferences through our cookie-management tool, where available. You can also control cookies in your browser settings, although some website features may not work as intended if you block essential technologies.
6. Disclosure of Information
We may disclose personal information to service providers that help us operate the website, including:
- Web hosting and content-delivery providers.
- Cybersecurity, anti-spam and fraud-prevention services, if used.
- Website developers, technical contractors and maintenance providers.
- Legal, accounting and professional advisers.
We may also disclose information if required or authorised by law, in connection with a court order, regulatory request, law-enforcement investigation, fraud prevention or protection of our rights and users.
External websites linked from our pages are independently operated. Their privacy terms apply once you leave our website. We cannot control, and are not responsible for, their collection, use or disclosure of information.
7. International Data Processing
Some service providers we use may store or process information outside Australia. This may include data processing in the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area, Singapore or other locations where our technology providers operate.
Where we disclose information to an overseas recipient, we will take reasonable steps to assess whether the recipient can handle the data appropriately and in accordance with applicable privacy requirements.
8. Security Measures
We use reasonable administrative, technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. These measures may include access restrictions, encryption in transit, supplier controls, secure configurations, monitoring and internal procedures.
The OAIC explains that APP 11 requires reasonable steps to protect personal information and, when it is no longer needed for a permitted purpose, to destroy or de-identify it where applicable.
No online system is entirely risk-free. You should take care when sending information over the internet and avoid sharing confidential credentials through unsecured channels.
9. Retention and De-Identification
We retain personal information only for as long as it is reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including responding to enquiries, maintaining records, resolving disputes, managing security and complying with legal requirements.
When we no longer need personal information, we take reasonable steps to securely delete it or de-identify it, unless we are legally required to retain it.
10. Access and Correction Requests
You may ask us to provide access to the personal information we hold about you. You may also request that inaccurate, incomplete or out-of-date information be corrected.
To submit a request, contact us using the details in Section 13 (Contact Details) with the subject line "Privacy Access or Correction Request." We may ask you to verify your identity before acting on the request. We will respond within a reasonable period and explain our decision if we cannot fulfil a request.
