4. Cookies & analytics
Our site (hosted on Wix) uses cookies to operate and to understand usage. We may also use tools such as Google Analytics (and, where used, Meta Pixel/ads) to measure traffic and performance. You can control cookies in your browser settings; some features may not work correctly if cookies are disabled.
5. Marketing
We may send service-related updates or, with your consent, occasional marketing about our services. You can opt out at any time via the unsubscribe link (if provided) or by contacting us.

Suppliers/contractors involved in your project (only what’s necessary).
-
Professional advisers (accountants, insurers) and authorities where required by law.
We do not sell your personal information.
7. Overseas disclosure
Because we use cloud services and Wix hosting, your information may be processed or stored outside Australia (e.g., the US, EU, Israel and other jurisdictions used by those providers). We take reasonable steps to ensure these providers protect your information to Australian standards.
8. Security & retention
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, and unauthorised access. We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes above and to comply with legal requirements, then securely delete or de-identify it.

You can request access to the personal information we hold about you, or ask us to correct it if it’s inaccurate, out-of-date or incomplete. Contact us using the details above and we’ll respond within a reasonable time.
