7. Overseas Disclosure

Some service providers we use may store or process information outside Australia.

Where personal information is disclosed to an overseas recipient, we will take reasonable steps to handle that disclosure consistently with applicable Australian privacy requirements.

The Australian Privacy Principles include specific requirements concerning overseas disclosures of personal information.

The countries where information may be processed can depend on the third-party services and technology used by the website.

8. Keeping Your Information Secure

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

Security measures may include appropriate access controls, secure systems, authentication procedures, monitoring and other technical and organisational safeguards.

However, no website or online transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You should take reasonable steps to protect your own account information, including keeping passwords confidential and using secure devices and connections.

9. How Long We Keep Information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, to provide our services, maintain appropriate business records, resolve disputes, protect our interests or meet legal and regulatory requirements.

When personal information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to securely delete or de-identify it, where appropriate.

10. Direct Marketing

Where permitted by law, we may send you information about our business, website, products, services or updates.

Where consent is required, we will obtain your consent before sending direct marketing communications.

You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions provided in the communication or by contacting us directly.
