Where your information is processed using these tools, we use paid commercial services whose terms contractually prohibit the use of your information for AI model training or any purpose other than providing the requested service. Your information is not retained by these service providers beyond a limited safety monitoring period.

We do not use AI tools to make automated decisions about you that have legal or similarly significant effects without human oversight.

Where your information is disclosed to overseas recipients, we take reasonable steps to ensure those recipients handle your personal information consistently with the Australian Privacy Principles, in accordance with Australian Privacy Principle 8 (Privacy Act 1988 (Cth)). This includes contractual obligations prohibiting use of your information for AI model training or secondary purposes.

6. Data Breach Notification

We are subject to the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme under the Privacy Amendment (Notifiable Data Breaches) Act 2017 (Cth). If we become aware of a data breach that is likely to result in serious harm to you, we will notify you and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner as soon as practicable.

Our notification will describe the nature of the breach, the information involved, and the steps we recommend you take in response.
