6. Online Store, Bookings, and Third-Party Providers

We may use third-party platforms and service providers to operate our website, process payments, manage bookings, host data, deliver communications, and run analytics or advertising.

Third-party providers may include:

  • website hosting providers

  • payment gateways

  • booking and calendar systems

We recommend that users also review the privacy policies of relevant third-party providers where applicable.

7. Direct Marketing

We may send you marketing messages by email, SMS, or similar means where you have consented, requested information from us, or where otherwise permitted by law.

Australian spam rules require commercial electronic messages to include a working unsubscribe option and to comply with consent requirements. ACMA guidance says unsubscribe requests must generally be honoured within 5 working days and must not require payment or unnecessary extra information.

You can opt out of marketing communications at any time by:

  • regulators, government bodies, law enforcement agencies, or courts where required or authorised by law

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

9. Overseas Disclosure

Some third-party providers we use may store or process personal information outside Australia.

Where this occurs, we will take reasonable steps to ensure your personal information is handled in a manner consistent with applicable Australian privacy requirements.

10. Storage and Security

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, and unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure. OAIC guidance states organisations covered by the APPs must take reasonable steps to protect personal information they hold.

However, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Access and Correction

You may request access to the personal information we hold about you and ask us to correct information that is inaccurate, incomplete, out of date, irrelevant, or misleading.

To make a request, contact us using the details below.

12. Complaints

If you believe we have mishandled your personal information or breached applicable privacy laws, you may contact us with a complaint.

Please provide enough detail for us to investigate. We will consider your complaint and respond within a reasonable time.

OAIC guidance says a privacy policy should explain how a person can complain about a privacy breach and how the organisation will deal with that complaint.

If you are not satisfied with our response, you may be able to contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).

13. Retention

We may retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for business, legal, accounting, warranty, dispute-resolution, and record-keeping purposes, after which we will take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it where required or appropriate.

14. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties, and you should review their policies separately.

15. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time by publishing the revised version on our website. The updated version takes effect from the date shown at the top of this page.
