We reserve the right, at our discretion, to modify or remove portions of this Privacy Policy at any time. This Privacy Policy is in addition to any other terms and conditions applicable to the website.
We recognise the importance of protecting the privacy of visitors to our website, particularly information that can identify an individual (“personal information”). This Privacy Policy governs how your personal information obtained through our website or services will be managed.

2. Personal Information
Personal information about visitors or customers is collected only when knowingly and voluntarily submitted. For example, we may collect such information to:
• Respond to enquiries,
• Provide quotes,
• Manage bookings, or
• Deliver our cleaning services.
It is our intention that this policy will protect your personal information from being handled in any way that is inconsistent with applicable privacy laws in Australia.

3. Use of Information
Personal information submitted to us is used only for the purpose for which it was provided, or for secondary purposes directly related to the primary purpose, unless otherwise disclosed at the time of collection.
Copies of correspondence that may contain personal information are stored securely as archives for record-keeping and backup purposes.

4. Collecting Information for Bookings
As part of booking a service with us, we may collect personal information such as your:
• Full name

Providing these details is optional; however, without them we may be unable to provide the requested services.

5. Security
We strive to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of all personal information submitted to us, and we review and update our security measures in line with current technologies.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed as totally secure. However, we will take all reasonable steps to protect your information once received. Our employees and contractors are bound by confidentiality obligations.
We will not be held responsible for events arising from unauthorised access to your personal information.

• Identify or take legal action against anyone damaging or interfering with our rights, property, or customers.
• Comply with the law.
We may also engage trusted third parties to provide services on our behalf (e.g., cleaners, payment processors, IT providers). In those cases, your personal information may be disclosed to such third parties, who are required to protect your information in line with this policy.
