TL;DR: We don't track you. No advertising cookies, no personal data collection, no user profiling. The only analytics we use is Fathom — a privacy-first tool that counts page views without storing any information about you. Your visit here is your own business.
We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and manage information when you visit or use our website. We have designed our website with privacy in mind — we do not track you, build profiles about you, or sell your data to third parties.
We do not collect, store, or process:
Your name, email address, or contact details (unless you voluntarily submit them via a contact form or similar)
Precise location data
Device fingerprints or persistent identifiers
Advertising identifiers or cross-site tracking data
Any information that could be used to identify you personally through your browsing behaviour
We use a minimal number of cookies necessary for the website to function correctly. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking cookies, or any cookies that follow you across other websites.
Our website uses functional cookies that are strictly necessary for core features to operate. These include session cookies set by the Laravel framework (our web application platform), which manage your session state while you navigate the site. These cookies:
Are temporary and expire when you close your browser (session cookies), or within a short fixed period
Do not track your behaviour across sessions
Do not contain personally identifiable information
Are not shared with third parties
Because these cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function, they do not require your prior consent under applicable Australian law. You may disable cookies in your browser settings, but doing so may affect how the website functions.
We use Fathom Analytics to understand how visitors use our website in aggregate. Fathom is a privacy-focused analytics service that was built specifically to respect visitor privacy.
Key facts about how Fathom works on this website:
No personal data is collected. Fathom does not collect or store any personally identifiable information about you.
No cookies are used for analytics. Fathom does not set any analytics cookies on your device.
No cross-site tracking. Fathom does not follow you across other websites.
IP addresses are not stored. Your IP address is used transiently to determine a general country of origin and is then immediately discarded — it is never logged or stored.
GDPR, CCPA, and PECR compliant. Fathom is designed to comply with major international privacy regulations.
Data is not sold. Fathom does not sell data to advertisers or any third parties.
The information Fathom provides us is limited to aggregated, anonymised statistics such as page views, referring domains, and general geographic regions (country level). This data cannot be used to identify you individually.
You can learn more about Fathom's privacy approach at usefathom.com/privacy.
If our website includes a contact form, registration form, or other input fields, any information you choose to submit (such as your name or email address) will be used solely for the purpose for which it was provided — for example, to respond to your enquiry. We will not add you to mailing lists or share your details with third parties without your explicit consent.
Other than Fathom Analytics, we do not embed third-party tracking scripts, social media pixels, or advertising networks on this website. Any third-party content embedded on the site (such as maps, videos, or fonts) may be subject to those providers' own privacy policies.
We take reasonable steps to protect any information held about you from misuse, interference, loss, and unauthorised access. Our website is hosted on servers located in [INSERT COUNTRY/REGION]. If you are located outside of that region, please be aware that information may be transferred to and stored in that jurisdiction.
Our website may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those websites and encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.
Under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), you have the right to:
Request access to any personal information we hold about you
Request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal information
Make a complaint if you believe we have interfered with your privacy
Because we collect very minimal personal data (and none through passive browsing), in most cases we will hold no personal information about you at all.
To make an access, correction, or complaint request, please contact us at the details below.
If you have a concern about how we handle your personal information, please contact us in the first instance. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC):
Website: oaic.gov.au
Phone: 1300 363 992
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
