Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data under the following legal bases:

  • Consent: When you explicitly agree to the processing of your personal data for specific purposes, such as receiving marketing communications.
  • Contract: When processing is necessary to perform a contract with you or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.
  • Legitimate interests: When processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, provided these do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.
  • Legal obligation: When we need to process data to comply with applicable laws and regulations.

Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the EEA, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right to Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you and information about how we process it.

Right to Rectification

You have the right to request correction of inaccurate personal data or completion of incomplete data.

Right to Erasure

You have the right to request deletion of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when the data is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected.

Right to Restriction

You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and to transmit it to another controller.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.

Right to Withdraw Consent

Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details provided above. We will respond to your request within one month. In some cases, we may need to verify your identity before processing your request.

There is no fee for exercising your rights, although we may charge a reasonable fee for unfounded or excessive requests.

International Data Transfers

As an Australian-based company, we may transfer your personal data outside the EEA. When we do so, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or transfers to countries with adequate data protection laws.

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required by law. When personal data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymise it.

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, including encryption, access controls, and regular security assessments.

Data Breach Notification

In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you without undue delay. We will also notify the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach where required.

Children's Data

Our services are not directed at individuals under 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from a child, we will take steps to delete that information.

Complaints

If you are not satisfied with how we handle your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. For EEA residents, this would be the data protection authority in your country of residence.

Updates to This Notice

We may update this GDPR compliance notice from time to time. We will post any changes on this page with an updated revision date.
