1. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?

Personal information you disclose to us

In short: We collect personal information that you provide to us.

  • phone number
  • billing address (and other billing details you provide)
  • account login information
  • contact preferences
  • customer contact information you upload or connect via an integration (for example, your customers' names, phone numbers and email addresses)

Payment data: If you purchase or subscribe, payment processing is typically handled by a third-party payment processor (for example, Stripe). We do not store full card details on our servers where a third-party processor is used. Stripe's privacy policy is available at https://stripe.com/privacy.

Sensitive information: Under Australian law, "sensitive information" can include things like racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health information, and similar categories. We do not ask you to provide sensitive information. If you choose to upload data that contains sensitive information, you represent you are authorised to do so and that appropriate consents have been obtained.

You must ensure all information you provide is accurate, complete, and kept up to date.

Information automatically collected

In short: Some information (like IP address and device information) is collected automatically.

When you visit or use the Services, we may automatically collect:

  • Log and usage data: IP address, browser type, device settings, pages viewed, timestamps, referring URLs, actions taken
  • Device data: device identifiers, operating system, network information, ISP/mobile carrier
  • Location data: approximate location inferred from IP address or device settings (depending on your device permissions)

We use this information primarily for security, service operation, analytics, and improvement.

Google API / Google services

Where you connect Google services (if enabled), our use of information received from Google APIs will be handled in accordance with applicable Google API policies and any permissions you grant. We only request and use Google-related data as needed to provide the connected functionality.

Information collected from other sources

In short: We may collect limited information from third parties.

We may collect limited information from:

  • third-party tools you connect (e.g., CRM, messaging, or automation tools)
  • marketing partners (where applicable)
  • public sources (e.g., business contact information)

This may include business contact details, job titles, social links, and basic firmographic/intent data.

2. HOW DO WE PROCESS YOUR INFORMATION?

  • Comply with legal obligations, enforce our terms, and protect rights and safety

3. WHAT LEGAL BASES DO WE RELY ON? (AUSTRALIA)

  • Legitimate business purposes: such as operating, securing and improving the Services (to the extent permitted by law)
  • Legal obligations: to comply with laws and respond to lawful requests

Important for customers' data: If you upload or provide your customers' contact details, you are responsible for ensuring you have the right to do so and that you have obtained any required consents for review-request communications (including under the Spam Act 2003 (Cth) and other applicable laws).

4. WHEN AND WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

In short: We may share information with service providers and in specific situations.

We may share personal information with:

  • Service providers who help us run the Services (e.g., hosting, storage, analytics, performance monitoring, customer support tools)

  • Payment processors (e.g., Stripe)
  • Security and fraud prevention vendors
  • Professional advisers (lawyers, accountants, auditors) as needed
  • Authorities where required by law, court order, or to protect rights/safety

Business transfers: If we undergo a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

Business partners: We may share limited information with partners where needed to provide a product/service you request, or with your direction.

We take reasonable steps to require third parties to handle personal information appropriately and securely.

5. DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?

In short: We may use cookies and similar technologies.

We may use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to:

  • keep you logged in
  • remember preferences
  • provide core site functionality

You can usually control cookies via your browser settings. If you disable cookies, some parts of the Services may not work properly.

Google Analytics (if used): We may use Google Analytics to understand how users interact with the Services. You can opt out via your browser settings or Google's opt-out tools.

6. DO WE OFFER AI-BASED FEATURES?

In short: We may offer optional features powered by AI.

Some features may use artificial intelligence or machine learning ("AI Features"), for example assisting with drafting suggested review responses or automations (where enabled).

If you use AI Features:

  • your inputs and outputs may be processed by third-party AI providers to deliver the feature
  • you must not input sensitive information unless you are authorised to do so

Where you have account-level controls to disable AI Features, you can do so within your settings (if available) or by contacting us.

  • maintain backups and security records

When information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to delete or de-identify it, unless retention is required by law.

8. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?

In short: We use reasonable safeguards, but no system is perfectly secure.

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures intended to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. However, no online service can guarantee absolute security. You use the Services at your own risk and should use a secure environment and strong passwords.

9. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?

In short: We do not knowingly collect information from children under 18.

The Services are not intended for users under 18. If you believe we have collected personal information from a minor, contact us at contact@TrueBlueReview.com.au.

10. WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?

In short: You may request access and correction of personal information we hold about you.

Under Australian privacy law, you may have rights to:

  • request access to personal information we hold about you
  • request correction if information is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant, or misleading
  • make a complaint if you believe we have mishandled your personal information

To make a request, email contact@TrueBlueReview.com.au. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

Marketing choices: You can opt out of marketing emails using the unsubscribe link or by contacting us. For SMS, you can use standard opt-out keywords (e.g., "STOP") where supported.

11. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

Some browsers offer "Do Not Track" signals. There is no consistent industry standard for responding to these signals, so we may not respond to them. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

12. OVERSEAS DISCLOSURES

We may use service providers that store or process information outside Australia (for example, cloud hosting, analytics, email/SMS delivery providers). Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps to ensure overseas recipients handle personal information in a manner consistent with this Policy and applicable privacy obligations, noting that different countries may have different privacy protections.

13. SMS & MOBILE DATA USAGE

Mobile opt-in data: If you (or your customers, where applicable) provide a mobile number for SMS messages, we collect and store that number and associated messaging preferences for the purpose of sending relevant messages through the Services (for example, review requests, reminders, and service notices).

No selling of mobile data: We do not sell or rent mobile numbers. We may disclose mobile numbers to SMS delivery providers and telecommunications partners strictly to deliver messages and operate the Services, under contractual controls.

Opt-out: Recipients can opt out of SMS messages using standard opt-out mechanisms (for example, replying "STOP") where supported. Once opted out, we will suppress the number from further SMS messages through the relevant sending channel, except where permitted by law (e.g., confirming opt-out).

14. DO WE MAKE UPDATES TO THIS NOTICE?

In short: Yes. We may update this Policy from time to time.

We may update this Policy as our practices change or to stay compliant with relevant laws. We'll update the "Last updated" date at the top. If changes are material, we may provide additional notice via the Site or by contacting you.
