We require these parties to handle your personal information consistently with this policy and the Privacy Act.
Overseas disclosure
Some of our service providers (for example, website hosting and analytics) store or process data on servers located outside Australia, including in the United States. Where we disclose personal information overseas, we take reasonable steps to ensure it is handled in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles.

How long we keep your information
We keep your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide our services and to meet our legal, accounting, and regulatory obligations. When it is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to securely delete or de-identify it.
