- Usage data, information about how you use our website, including pages visited, time spent, and referring sources, collected via cookies and analytics tools (see section 5).
We do not collect sensitive information (such as health, financial account, or government identifier information) unless you provide it voluntarily and we have a clear reason to do so.
3. How we collect your information
We collect personal information:

5. Cookies and tracking technologies
Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies, including analytics and advertising tools provided by third parties such as Google and Meta. These tools may collect information about your device, browser, and how you interact with our site. This data is used to measure site performance, understand audience behaviour, and, where you have consented, to deliver relevant advertising.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of some parts of our site.
6. Disclosure to third parties
We may share your personal information with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our website and delivering our services, for example, email delivery platforms, analytics providers, and business tools. These providers are required to handle your information in accordance with applicable privacy laws and our instructions.
We do not sell your personal information. We will only disclose your information to third parties outside of these arrangements where required or permitted by law, or with your consent.
Overseas disclosure
Some of our third-party service providers are based overseas (including in the United States and European Union). Where we disclose personal information to overseas recipients, we take reasonable steps to ensure those recipients handle your information in accordance with the APPs, or are subject to a similar privacy framework.
7. Data security
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, loss, and unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure. Our website uses HTTPS encryption, and we limit access to personal information to those within our business who need it.
While we take care to protect your information, no transmission over the internet is completely secure. If you believe your information has been compromised, please contact us immediately.
8. Data retention
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it.

Under the Australian Privacy Act, you have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you;
- Correct any personal information that is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, or misleading;
- Opt out of direct marketing at any time; and
