My services are not directed to persons under 18 and I do not knowingly collect Personal Data from anyone under 18. If I become aware that a child under 18 has provided me with Personal Data, I will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you are the parent or guardian of a child and you believe they have provided me with Personal Data without your consent, then please contact me.

You can review, correct, update or delete your Personal Data by either logging into your account and making the changes yourself or contacting me directly to do so.

USE OF PERSONAL DATA

Personally Identifiable Information: I use the information I collect to deliver my goods and services to you, including: communicating with you, providing technical support, notifying you of updates and offers, sharing useful content, measuring customer satisfaction, diagnosing problems and providing you with a personalised website experience.

Marketing communications are only sent to you if you have requested or subscribed to them. You can opt out of my marketing communications at any time by unsubscribing or emailing me and your request will be actioned immediately.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information: I also use the information I collect in aggregated and anonymised forms to improve my services, including: administering my website, producing reports and analytics, advertising my products and services, identifying user demands and assisting in meeting customer needs generally.

Any information you choose to make publicly available, such as blog comments and testimonials on my website, will be available for others to see. If you subsequently remove this information, copies may remain viewable in cached and archived pages on other websites or if others have copied or saved the information.

STORAGE AND SECURITY OF PERSONAL DATA

I will use all reasonable means to protect the confidentiality of your Personal Data while in my possession or control. All information I receive from you is stored and protected on my secure servers from unauthorised use or access. Credit card information is encrypted before transmission and is not stored by me on my servers.

To enable me to deliver my services, I may transfer information that I collect about you, including Personal Data, across borders for storage and processing in countries other than Australia. If your Personal Data is transferred and processed outside Australia, it will only be transferred to countries that have adequate privacy protections.

I retain your personal information for as long as needed to provide services to you and as otherwise necessary to comply with my legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements.

In the event there is a breach of my security and your Personal Data is compromised, I will promptly notify you in compliance with the applicable law.

COOKIES AND PIXELS

Use of cookies allows a website to tailor its configuration to your needs and preferences. Cookies do not access information stored on your computer or any Personal Data (e.g. name, address, email address or telephone number). Most web browsers automatically accept cookies but you can choose to reject cookies by changing your browser settings. This may, however, prevent you from taking full advantage of my website.

My website uses cookies to analyse website traffic, provide social media sharing and liking functionality and helps me provide a better website visitor experience. In addition, cookies and pixels may be used to serve relevant ads to website visitors through third party services such as Google Ads and Facebook Adverts. These ads may appear on this website or other websites you visit.

THIRD PARTIES

I do not and will not sell or deal in Personal Data or any customer information.

Your Personal Data details are only disclosed to third party suppliers when it is required by law, for goods or services which you have purchased, for payment processing or to protect my copyright, trademarks and other legal rights. To the extent that I do share your Personal Data with a service provider, I would only do so if that party has agreed to comply with my privacy standards as described in this Privacy Policy and in accordance with applicable law. My contracts with third parties prohibit them from using any of your Personal Data for any purpose other than that for which it was shared.

DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA

I may from time to time need to disclose certain information, which may include your Personal Data, to comply with a legal requirement, such as a law, regulation, court order, subpoena, warrant, in the course of a legal proceeding or in response to a law enforcement agency request. Also, I may use your Personal Data to protect the rights, property or safety of my Website, my customers or third parties.

If there is a change of control in one of my businesses (whether by merger, sale, transfer of assets or otherwise) customer information, which may include your Personal Data, could be transferred to a purchaser under a confidentiality agreement. I would only disclose your Personal Data in good faith and where required by any of the above circumstances.
