This policy explains how we collect, use, disclose and safeguard personal information when you visit https://boidsofafeatherau.space or engage our services.
1. The types of information we collect
The kinds of personal information we may collect and hold include:

- your email address and preferred contact details;
- information you provide when requesting a quote or making an enquiry about our services;
- business and project information you share with us for the purpose of delivering consulting services; and

We do not collect sensitive information (such as health, political or religious information) unless it is reasonably necessary for our functions and you have consented, or the collection is otherwise permitted by law.
2. How we collect personal information
We collect personal information in a variety of ways, including:
- directly from you, when you complete forms on this website, send us an email or correspond with us about our services;
- through our use of website analytics tools, which may collect technical information such as your IP address, browser type and pages visited; and
- from third parties, where you have consented to that disclosure or where it is otherwise permitted by the APPs.
Where it is reasonable and practicable to do so, we will collect personal information directly from you.
3. Why we collect and use personal information
We collect, hold, use and disclose personal information so that we can:
- respond to your enquiries and provide quotes for our services;
- deliver professional business and consulting services to you and your organisation;
- manage our business relationship with you, including invoicing and record-keeping;
- improve our website, services and client experience; and
- comply with our legal and regulatory obligations.
We will not use or disclose your personal information for direct marketing purposes unless permitted under the APPs, and you may always ask us to stop.
4. Disclosure of personal information
We may disclose your personal information to:
- our professional advisers, such as accountants and legal advisers, where reasonably required;
- service providers who assist us with hosting, analytics, email and administration, bound by confidentiality obligations;
- government bodies, regulators or law enforcement agencies where required or authorised by law; and
- any other person with your consent.
We do not sell your personal information to anyone.
5. Overseas disclosure
Some of our service providers, including website hosting and email providers, may store or process data on servers located outside Australia. Where personal information is disclosed to an overseas recipient, we take reasonable steps to ensure that the recipient handles that information in a manner consistent with the APPs.

We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. These steps include appropriate technical and organisational safeguards. When personal information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it, unless we are required by law to retain it.

You have a right under the APPs to request access to the personal information we hold about you, and to request corrections if you believe it is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading. To make a request, please email us using the details below. We will respond within a reasonable time and may need to verify your identity before providing access.
