8. Cross-Border Disclosure of Personal Information
Some of the third-party service providers we use are located outside Australia, including in the United States and India. When we disclose personal information to overseas recipients, we take reasonable steps to ensure those recipients handle information in a manner consistent with the Australian Privacy Principles.
Specifically, we rely on the following protections:
- Contractual data processing agreements with overseas providers
- Providers who are certified under equivalent privacy frameworks (e.g. EU-US Data Privacy Framework, SOC 2)
- Providers whose privacy practices we have assessed as meeting an acceptable standard
By using our website or services, you consent to your personal information being disclosed to overseas recipients as described in this policy. Please note that if we disclose your information to an overseas recipient and that recipient breaches the APPs, we may not be responsible for that breach under Australian law — however, we take reasonable steps to select reputable providers and include appropriate contractual protections.
9. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to improve your browsing experience and to understand how visitors use our site.
Types of cookies we use
- Essential cookies — required for the website to function correctly (e.g. session management, security)
- Analytics cookies — Google Analytics, used to understand traffic patterns and page performance. Data is aggregated and de-identified where possible.
- Functional cookies — remember your preferences and settings
- Marketing cookies — may be set by third-party platforms (e.g. LinkedIn Insight Tag) if you have interacted with our social media
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our website. Most browsers allow you to refuse new cookies, delete existing cookies, and be notified when a new cookie is set.
We do not use cookies to collect sensitive personal information or to build individual advertising profiles without consent.
10. Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification, and disclosure. Our security measures include:
- SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted via our website
- Restricted access to personal information on a need-to-know basis
- Secure hosting with Hostinger using LiteSpeed web server
- Regular software and security updates
- Two-factor authentication for administrative systems
- Secure off-site storage of credentials and API keys outside web-accessible directories
While we implement appropriate safeguards, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in serious harm, we will notify affected individuals and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) as required under the Notifiable Data Breaches (NDB) scheme.
11. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, to provide our services, and to meet our legal obligations. When personal information is no longer required, we securely destroy or de-identify it.
As a general guide:
- Client project records — 7 years (to meet Australian taxation and business record-keeping requirements)
- Enquiry records — 2 years from the date of enquiry
- Website analytics data — 26 months (Google Analytics default retention)
- Marketing consent records — retained until consent is withdrawn
12. Your Rights — Access and Correction
Under the Australian Privacy Act, you have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you (APP 12)
- Correct personal information that is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant, or misleading (APP 13)
- Opt out of direct marketing communications at any time
- Request deletion of your personal information where we no longer have a legal basis to retain it
To make an access or correction request, contact us at privacy@outsourcehub.com.au. We will respond within 30 days. We may need to verify your identity before processing a request.
In limited circumstances, we may decline to provide access — for example, if doing so would unreasonably impact another person’s privacy, or if the request is frivolous. We will explain any refusal in writing.
We do not charge a fee for making an access or correction request, but may charge a reasonable fee to cover the cost of providing access if the request is complex or involves large volumes of information.
13. Direct Marketing
We may use your personal information to send you information about our services, industry updates, and promotional offers where you have provided consent or where permitted under applicable law (including the Spam Act 2003 (Cth)).
You may opt out of receiving marketing communications at any time by:
- Clicking the unsubscribe link in any email we send
- Emailing us at privacy@outsourcehub.com.au
- Calling us on 0493 708 004
We will process your opt-out request within 5 business days.
