2. Scope — what this policy covers

This policy applies to personal information we collect when you:

It does not cover third-party websites linked from the Site (except where we embed services such as maps). Those providers have their own privacy policies.

3. What personal information we collect (APP 3 & APP 5)

We only collect personal information that is reasonably necessary for our functions or activities.

3.1 Information you give us directly

3.2 Information collected automatically

3.3 Sensitive information

We do not ask you to provide sensitive information (for example health information) through the Site. If you include health-related details in a free-text message, we will only use that information for the purpose of replying to you, unless you give separate consent or another exception under the Privacy Act applies.

3.4 Collection notice (APP 5)

When we collect personal information directly from you, we aim to tell you at or before collection (through this Policy, the contact form, or the cookie banner):

If you do not provide required contact details, we may be unable to respond to your enquiry.

4. Why we collect and how we use information (APP 6)

PurposeTypical informationLegal basis (Australia)

Analytics (optional) Usage statistics, device data Your consent via cookie banner (APP 6.1)
Marketing measurement (optional) Campaign interaction data Your consent via cookie banner

We will not use your personal information for a secondary purpose unrelated to the primary purpose unless you consent, you would reasonably expect the use, or an exception under the Privacy Act applies.

5. Direct marketing (APP 7 & Spam Act 2003)

We do not send commercial electronic messages (email or SMS marketing) unless:

and every message includes a clear sender identity and a functional unsubscribe facility, as required by the Spam Act and industry standards.

If we ever send newsletters or promotional emails, you may opt out at any time using the unsubscribe link or by emailing our privacy contact. We will honour opt-out requests promptly.

Marketing cookies (which may support ad measurement such as Google Ads) are only activated with your consent via our cookie banner. See the Cookie Policy and Advertising Disclosure.

6. Disclosure of personal information (APP 6)

We do not sell your personal information. We may disclose personal information to:

We require contracted processors to handle personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act and only for the agreed purpose.

7. Overseas disclosure (APP 8)

Some service providers (for example hosting, email, or analytics platforms) may store or process data outside Australia, including in the United States, European Union, or other countries.

Before disclosing personal information overseas, we take reasonable steps under APP 8.1 to ensure the recipient complies with the APPs or is bound by a substantially similar privacy regime, unless an exception applies (for example your informed consent after we explain that overseas recipients may not be subject to the Privacy Act).

You may contact us for more information about likely overseas locations relevant to your interaction with the Site.

8. Data quality and retention (APP 10 & APP 11)

8.1 Accuracy

We take reasonable steps to ensure personal information we collect, use, and disclose is accurate, up to date, and complete. Please tell us if your details change.

8.2 Retention periods

When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it under APP 11.2.

9. Security (APP 11.1)

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure, including:

No online transmission is completely secure. You should protect your email account and device when communicating with us.

10. Notifiable data breaches (Privacy Act Part IIIC)

If we experience a data breach that is likely to result in serious harm to individuals whose personal information is involved, we will comply with the Notifiable Data Breaches (NDB) scheme. This includes assessing the incident, notifying affected individuals and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) as soon as practicable, and taking steps to contain and remediate the breach.

If you believe your interaction with us has been affected by a security incident, contact us immediately using the details in section 1.

11. Access and correction (APP 12 & APP 13)

You may request access to the personal information we hold about you, and request correction if it is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant, or misleading.

How to request: email question@filternnwipe.world with “Privacy access request” or “Privacy correction request” in the subject line. We may ask for reasonable identity verification.

We will respond within a reasonable period (generally within 30 days). We may refuse access in limited circumstances permitted by the Privacy Act (for example where access would unreasonably impact another person’s privacy). If we refuse, we will explain our reasons and how you may complain.

We do not charge a fee for reasonable access requests. We may charge a reasonable administrative cost if a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.

12. Complaints (APP 1.4(d))

If you have a concern about how we handle your personal information:

  1. Contact us first using the details in section 1. We will acknowledge your complaint and investigate.
  2. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC):
    • Website: oaic.gov.au
    • Phone: 1300 363 992
    • Post: GPO Box 5218, Sydney NSW 2001

We cooperate with the OAIC in resolving complaints.

13. Anonymity and pseudonymity (APP 2)

Where lawful and practicable, you may interact with us without identifying yourself (for example browsing public pages). If you use the contact form or request a reply, we need sufficient information to respond and cannot deal with your enquiry anonymously.

14. Australian Privacy Principles — how we comply (summary)

We handle personal information in accordance with all 13 APPs. This table is a summary; if there is any conflict, the Privacy Act and OAIC guidance prevail.

15. Artificial intelligence and automated tools (2026 transparency)

We support clear disclosure when technology affects what you see or read. Full details are on our AI & Data Transparency page. Summary as at the last updated date:

15.1 Website images

Photographs displayed on the Site are not created using generative AI for this project. They are image files published from our image directory. If we later use AI-generated or AI-edited visuals, we will label them and update this Policy and the transparency page before or when they are published.

15.2 Build Your Plate tool

The plate builder uses pre-programmed rules in the visitor’s browser. It is not an AI chatbot, does not use generative models, and does not send your food choices to an external AI service. Feedback is general education only, not automated professional advice.

15.3 Contact — not medical or AI consultation

We do not provide medical, dietetic, or real-time AI chat consultations on the Site. The contact form is for general questions about workshops and site content. Enquiries are intended to be handled by a person. If we deploy AI-assisted drafting or chat in future, we will:

15.4 Personal information and AI providers

We do not sell personal information to AI model trainers. If we ever use a third-party AI service that processes personal information you provide (for example text you type into a future chat tool), that processing will be covered by an updated collection notice, contractual safeguards where appropriate, and APP 8 steps for overseas disclosure if applicable.

15.5 Automated decision-making

Plate suggestions do not produce legal or similarly significant effects. They are optional ideas only. You should not rely on them for medical or dietary treatment decisions.

16. Data governance in 2026

We apply the following practices to personal information and related data on the Site:

17. International visitors (GDPR / UK GDPR)

If you are in the EEA or UK, you may have additional rights including data portability, restriction of processing, objection, and withdrawal of consent. Our lawful bases under GDPR may include consent, contract, and legitimate interests as described above.

You may contact us to exercise these rights. You also have the right to complain to your local supervisory authority. Where we transfer data internationally, we rely on appropriate safeguards where required.

18. Children

The Site is intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 15 without parental or guardian consent. If you believe we have collected a child’s information, contact us and we will delete it where required.

19. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change. Material changes will be posted on this page. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes notice of the updated policy where permitted by law.
