7. Use of Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies and other tracking technologies, including:

  • Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to collect information about website traffic and user behaviour. This includes sharing anonymised data about visitors to our website. If you submit a form on our website, we may share your platform identifier back to Google Analytics (now often referred to as GA4) to identify that you have taken this action. This information helps us understand how visitors use our website and improve its performance. Google Analytics uses cookies to track your interactions with our website. You can also opt-out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.  
  • Meta Pixel (Facebook Pixel): We use the Meta Pixel to track user activity on our website for the purposes of measuring the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns, creating custom audiences for advertising, and remarketing to website visitors. This includes sharing anonymised data about visitors to our website. If you submit a form on our website, we may share your platform identifier back to Meta to identify that you have taken this action. The Meta Pixel may collect information about your Browse activity, including the pages you visit and actions you take.
  • Google Ads Conversion Tracking: We use Google Ads conversion tracking to measure the effectiveness of our Google Ads campaigns. This involves placing a cookie on your device when you click on one of our Google Ads. When you complete a specific action on our website (e.g., submit a form), Google Ads can recognise the cookie and record the conversion. You can manage your ad preferences through your Google account settings.
  • Microsoft Clarity: We use Microsoft Clarity to gain insights into how visitors interact with our website. Clarity uses behavioural metrics, heatmaps, and session recordings to help us understand user behaviour and improve website usability. Microsoft Clarity may collect information about your interactions with our website, such as mouse movements, clicks, scrolling behaviour, and the pages you visit. The data collected by Microsoft Clarity is primarily for analytical purposes to help us optimise our website.

You can control the use of cookies through your browser settings. Most web browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. However, please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of our website.  

8. Data Retention

We will retain your personal information only for as long as is reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. This period may vary depending on the nature of the information and our interactions with you. For example, we may retain your contact information for as long as you are subscribed to our newsletter, or for a longer period if required to comply with legal obligations or resolve disputes. We will securely dispose of or de-identify your personal information when it is no longer needed.  

9. Cross-border Disclosure of Personal Information

Some of the third-party service providers we use may be located outside of Australia. This means that your personal information may be transferred to and stored in countries that may not have the same level of data protection as Australia. We will take reasonable steps to ensure that any overseas recipients of your personal information handle that information in accordance with the APPs or a substantially similar law, or that we have your consent to the disclosure.

10. Security of Personal Information

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from misuse, interference, loss, and unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure. These steps may include:  

  • Implementing physical security measures.
  • Using secure servers and encryption technologies.
  • Implementing access controls and password protection.
  • Regularly reviewing and updating our security practices.

However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. Therefore, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.  

11. Access to and Correction of Personal Information

You have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you and to request that we correct any inaccuracies in that information. If you would like to access or correct your personal information, please contact us using the details provided in section 14. We may require you to verify your identity before providing access to or correcting your personal information.  

12. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to other websites operated by third parties. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of these other websites. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of each website you visit.  

13. Complaints about a Breach of Privacy

If you believe that we have breached the APPs or any other applicable privacy law, please contact us using the details provided in section 14 and provide details of your complaint. We will investigate your complaint and take reasonable steps to address your concerns in accordance with our complaints handling procedure and applicable law. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC). You can find more information about making a complaint to the OAIC on their website: https://www.oaic.gov.au/.
