  • Netlify — for website hosting and form submission processing (servers located in the United States)

These service providers are only authorised to use your personal information as necessary to provide services to us and are required to handle your information in a manner consistent with relevant privacy obligations.

In the course of delivering our digital marketing services, we may access or handle personal information belonging to our clients' customers (for example, through managing advertising accounts or analytics platforms on their behalf). This information is handled in accordance with our contractual obligations to those clients and is not used for any purpose other than providing the agreed services.

8. Cross-Border Disclosure

Some of the third-party services we use are operated by organisations located outside of Australia, primarily in the United States. By providing your personal information to us, you consent to the disclosure of your information to these overseas recipients.

We take reasonable steps to ensure that overseas recipients handle your personal information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles.
