Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2 June 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Ligamentswynecka.world (“we”, “us”) collects, uses, stores, and protects personal data when you visit our website or contact us. We comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) where it applies to visitors from the European Economic Area, and with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) for users in Australia.

2. Personal data we collect
- Contact form: name, email address, message content, and your consent record.
- Technical data: IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, and referral source (where analytics cookies are accepted).
- Cookie data: preferences stored in local storage regarding cookie categories. See our Cookie Policy.
3. Purposes and legal bases (GDPR)
- Responding to enquiries — performance of steps at your request / legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(b)/(f)).
- Operating and securing the website — legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)).
- Analytics (only with consent) — Art. 6(1)(a).
- Marketing cookies (only with consent) — Art. 6(1)(a).
- Legal compliance — Art. 6(1)(c) where required.
Under the APPs, we collect personal information only where reasonably necessary for our functions, and by lawful and fair means. Where lawful and practicable, you may interact with us anonymously or using a pseudonym (APP 2), although this may limit our ability to respond to contact enquiries.
4. Australian Privacy Principles (APP) summary
We structure our privacy practices around the Australian Privacy Principles in Schedule 1 of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), including:
- APP 1: open and transparent management of personal information via this policy.
- APP 3 and APP 5: collection only when reasonably necessary and notification at collection points.
- APP 6: use and disclosure for the primary purpose of collection or as permitted by law.
- APP 7: direct marketing controls and opt-out rights where applicable.
- APP 8: reasonable steps before overseas disclosure.
- APP 11: security controls and secure handling practices.
- APP 12 and APP 13: access and correction rights.
5. Direct marketing and communications (APP 7, Spam Act 2003)
We do not send unsolicited commercial electronic messages. If we send informational updates in future, we will include clear sender identification and an unsubscribe mechanism. We only use contact details for marketing where permitted by law or where you have consented.
6. AI and algorithmic transparency notice (2026)
We publish content with a transparency-first approach. If any page uses AI-assisted visuals (for example, conceptual interior mockups) or AI-assisted conversational support, we clearly label that experience at the point of use so visitors can distinguish it from standard editorial content.
Current status on this website:
- No automated AI chat is used to provide personal consultations.
- If AI-assisted images are added in future, they will be marked with a visible label such as “AI-assisted visual”.
- AI tools, if used, do not make legal, medical, or employment decisions about users.
7. Retention
- Contact messages: up to 24 months unless a longer period is required for legal claims or you request earlier deletion.
- Server logs: typically up to 90 days.
- Analytics data (if enabled): per provider settings, generally up to 26 months, anonymised where possible.
- Cookie consent records: up to 12 months, then refreshed on your next visit.
8. Sharing and international disclosures (APP 8)
We do not sell personal data. Service providers (such as hosting, email, analytics and embedded maps where enabled) may process data on our instructions under contractual controls. Some providers may store or process data outside Australia, including in jurisdictions such as the EU, United States, or other regions where their infrastructure operates. Before overseas disclosure, we take reasonable steps to ensure recipients handle personal information consistently with the APPs, unless an exception under APP 8 applies.
9. Security measures (APP 11)
We apply technical and organisational measures including HTTPS where available, least-privilege access controls, provider due diligence, and periodic review of retained data. No transmission method is completely secure, but we work to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, and unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure.
10. Notifiable Data Breaches (Privacy Act Part IIIC)
If an eligible data breach occurs and is likely to result in serious harm, we will assess the incident promptly and, where required, notify affected individuals and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) in accordance with the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme.
11. Your rights
GDPR (EEA visitors): access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection, and withdrawal of consent without affecting prior processing; right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority.
Australia: access and correction rights under APP 12–13, and complaint rights via OAIC if unresolved.
To exercise rights, email hello@ligamentswynecka.world. We may verify identity before responding. For Australian requests, we aim to respond within 30 days where practicable; for GDPR requests, generally within one month.
12. Complaints process (Australia)
If you believe we have breached the APPs, contact us first with details of your concern. We will acknowledge your complaint and investigate. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may lodge a complaint with the OAIC: www.oaic.gov.au.
13. Children
This site is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect their data without parental consent.
14. Changes
We may update this policy; the “Last updated” date will change. Material changes will be highlighted on this page.
