This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard personal information, as well as how we handle other information about your business. By engaging with us or using our services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
What is personal information?
“Personal information” means information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable — whether true or not and whether recorded in a material form or not.

  • Submit an enquiry via our website, email, or phone.
  • Register for demos, events, or webinars.

  • Public sources, regulators, or government agencies (where lawful).
  • Cookies and analytics tools (see section below).
Use of personal information

Disclosure of information
We may share personal information with:
  • Our employees, contractors, and related entities.
  • Technology partners (Microsoft, AWS, Cisco, Optus) to deliver contracted services.
  • Third-party service providers, distributors, and business partners.
  • Regulators or government authorities where required by law.
  • Organisations acquiring all or part of our business.
We may disclose information overseas (e.g., data stored or processed in Microsoft Azure or AWS data centres outside Australia). Where we do, we take steps to ensure overseas recipients apply appropriate data protection standards equivalent to Australian Privacy Laws.
Security & data breaches
We use a combination of physical, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect personal information, including:
  • Encryption, firewalls, and access controls.
  • Security monitoring, patching, and audits.
  • Restricting access on a “need-to-know” basis.
However, no system can be guaranteed 100% secure. If a Notifiable Data Breach occurs, we will promptly assess the situation and notify affected parties in line with Privacy Act requirements.
We will take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify personal information if it is no longer required, unless retention is required by law.

Access, correction & complaints
You have the right to:
  • Request access to the personal information we hold about you.
  • Request corrections if the information is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated.
  • We will respond within a reasonable timeframe. In certain cases, we may decline access or correction requests where permitted by law — if so, we’ll provide written reasons.

While we aim to treat all information with care, we are not required to, and do not guarantee that we will, comply with Privacy Laws where the information is not legally classed as “personal information”.
