If we become aware that personal information has been collected inappropriately, we will take reasonable steps to address it.

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
However, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically can guarantee absolute security.

Our website may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites and services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, and we recommend reviewing those policies before providing personal information.
13. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes to our business, services, legal requirements or privacy practices.
The latest version will be published on our website with an updated effective date.
