Privacy
Your information, handled with care.
We handle personal information in line with the Australian Privacy Principles.
What we collect
- When you send an enquiry: your name, business name, email, and optionally your phone number, current website, industry, budget, timeframe and project description.
- When you become a client: the business details, branding, content and files you provide through our onboarding form, plus project, invoice and payment records.
- We don't ask for passwords, card numbers or other sensitive information, and you should never send them to us.
How we use it
- Only to respond to your enquiry, prepare quotes, deliver and maintain your website, and keep required business records.
- We never sell your information, and we never add enquiry contacts to marketing lists.
How it's stored and who can see it
- Information is stored in a secure, access-controlled database. Only authorised OB Web Design administrators, signed in with multi-factor authentication, can view it.
- Files you upload are kept in private storage and are never publicly accessible.
- Third-party services that handle this information on our behalf: Lovable (website hosting, database and file storage) and, once enabled, our email delivery provider for notifications.
How long we keep it
- Enquiries that don't go ahead are archived and deleted within 24 months.
- Client, invoice and payment records are kept for at least 5 years to meet Australian tax record-keeping requirements, then deleted.
- Archived clients keep their financial history; other content can be removed on request.
Access, correction and deletion
- You can ask to see, correct or delete the information we hold about you by emailing hello@obwebdesign.com.au. We'll respond within 30 days.
- If you're unhappy with how we've handled your information, contact us first. You can also contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (oaic.gov.au).
