Overseas Disclosure of Personal Information

In the course of delivering our services, we may share personal information with contractors or subcontractors located outside of Australia, including in the Philippines. This may occur when our contractors assist in managing client accounts, preparing content, or delivering virtual assistant services.

Before sharing personal information with overseas contractors, we take reasonable steps to ensure that those contractors are subject to privacy obligations that are substantially similar to the Australian Privacy Principles under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

7.3

By using our Website or engaging our services, you consent to your personal information being disclosed to overseas recipients as described in this clause. Please note that where we disclose personal information to an overseas recipient, we may not always be able to ensure that the overseas recipient will handle your personal information in accordance with Australian privacy law. If such a recipient mishandles your information, you may not be able to seek redress under Australian law, and we may not be held accountable under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) in those circumstances.

7.4

Personal information may also be processed outside Australia through third-party services such as Google Analytics (United States) and Meta Pixel (United States). These transfers are governed by those providers’ own terms and privacy frameworks.

8

Client Customer Data

8.1

Where we provide services that involve handling personal data belonging to our clients’ own customers (for example, managing an email marketing list), we act as a service provider processing that data on the client’s behalf.

8.2

In such cases, our client is responsible for ensuring that all personal data provided to us has been collected lawfully, with the appropriate consent required under applicable Australian privacy and marketing laws, including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Spam Act 2003 (Cth).

8.3

We will only use client customer data for the specific purposes of delivering the agreed services and will not use it for any other purpose without the client’s written consent.

9

Data Security

9.1

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

  • Storing digital records in password-protected and access-controlled systems.
  • Limiting access to personal information to those who need it to perform their role.
  • Requiring contractors and subcontractors to maintain appropriate confidentiality and security obligations.
9.2

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

9.3

If we become aware of a data breach that is likely to result in serious harm to any individual whose information is involved, we will notify the affected individuals and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) as required under the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme (Part IIIC of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth)).

  • Client engagement records and associated personal information are retained for a minimum of seven (7) years for financial and legal compliance purposes.
  • Enquiry records from non-clients are retained for a reasonable period after the enquiry and then securely deleted.
  • Website analytics data is retained in accordance with the data retention settings of the relevant platform (Google Analytics / Meta Pixel).
10.2

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