Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Office of Alexei Haddad handles personal information collected through this website. It is drafted with reference to the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles, to the extent those laws apply to the office and its activities.

The website may collect personal information that a visitor deliberately provides through the enquiry form, including name, email address, subject, message content, and any other information included in the enquiry. The website or its hosting systems may also receive ordinary technical information associated with a visit, such as IP address, browser type, device information, referring page, date, time, and server log information.

Personal information is collected only where reasonably necessary for the office's functions and activities. It may be used to respond to enquiries, manage professional correspondence, assess potential projects, collaborations, research, or employment opportunities, maintain administrative records, preserve website security, and comply with legal or professional obligations.

The office does not sell personal information. Personal information may be disclosed where necessary to website, email, hosting, cloud storage, archival, administrative, or professional service providers; to professional advisers; or where disclosure is required or authorised by law. Because the office works internationally and may use cloud-based services, personal information may be stored or processed outside Australia by service providers. Reasonable steps are taken to use reputable services and to limit disclosure to what is necessary.

The website does not intentionally request sensitive information through the enquiry form. Visitors should avoid submitting sensitive information unless it is necessary for the enquiry. The website is not intended to collect personal information from children.

Reasonable steps are taken to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure. Information is retained only for as long as it is reasonably required for the purposes described above, including archival, legal, administrative, or professional record-keeping purposes.

A person may request access to, or correction of, personal information held about them by contacting the office through the enquiry form. A person may also raise a privacy concern or complaint through the same channel. The office will consider and respond to privacy requests within a reasonable period.

This policy should be reviewed when the website's information handling practices change, including if analytics, marketing tools, cookies, payment systems, newsletter systems, or additional data collection functions are introduced.
