We handle personal information about our clients, prospective clients, website visitors, and other individuals we interact with in the course of providing our services. We take our obligations seriously — data protection is, quite literally, what we do.

05 — DISCLOSURE
Disclosure of your information
We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information. We may disclose personal information to:
Service providers
Third-party vendors who assist us in operating our business, including cloud infrastructure providers, email platforms, project management tools, and accounting software. These parties are engaged under contractual obligations to handle personal information appropriately.

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of our business or assets, personal information held by us may be disclosed to prospective purchasers under appropriate confidentiality arrangements.
We take reasonable steps to ensure any third parties who receive personal information from us handle it in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles.
06 — OVERSEAS DISCLOSURE
Overseas disclosure
Some of the third-party service providers we use may store or process data on servers located outside Australia, including in the United States and the European Union. Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps to ensure those parties comply with standards consistent with the Australian Privacy Principles.
By providing us with your personal information, you consent to it being handled by overseas service providers in the manner described above.
07 — STORAGE & SECURITY
Storage and security
We take the security of personal information seriously — it's the nature of what we do. We implement technical and organisational safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information we hold, including:
- Encrypted storage and transmission
- Access controls and least-privilege principles
- Multi-factor authentication on all systems handling personal data
- Regular security reviews of our own environment
We retain personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by law. When information is no longer needed, we securely destroy or de-identify it.
Despite our efforts, no system is completely secure. If you become aware of any security concern relating to your information, please contact us immediately.
