Understanding Cookies
Cookies are compact data files saved on your device when browsing online. We utilise them to improve usability, monitor usage trends, and tailor user experiences—all in accordance with Australia’s data privacy framework.
Cookie Categories
We implement the following types: 1) Strictly Necessary 2) Analytical 3) Functional 4) Marketing. Each is defined following Australian OAIC protocol and disclosed via our consent control interface.
Regulatory Framework
All cookie activity adheres to the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Spam Act 2003. Non-essential cookies are only activated after receiving informed user consent via our compliant notification banner.
Lifespan
Temporary cookies terminate once the browser is closed. Persistent cookies may last between 30 and 365 days depending on function. Lifespans are periodically audited to align with Australian data minimisation obligations.
External Providers
We prioritise Australian-based analytics vendors. If international platforms such as Google Analytics are used, we enter binding agreements compliant with APP 8 for lawful cross-border data handling.
Cookie Control
You can modify cookie preferences anytime via our on-site dashboard. Under Australian consumer law, users may refuse optional cookies while retaining full access to essential platform features.
Respecting “Do Not Track”
Although Australian regulation doesn’t mandate support for DNT, we honour it by limiting non-essential tracking and incorporating privacy-conscious defaults in our architecture.
Minors’ Information
We do not deliberately collect cookie-based data from users under 16 without explicit parental consent, consistent with guidance from Australia's eSafety Office for Children.
Revision History
All updates are logged here with a visible date stamp. Substantial changes will prompt a renewed consent prompt for users in Australia as mandated by the OAIC's transparency standards.
