Privacy Policy

You’ve heard the phrase “your privacy is important to us” before—often right before a list of ways your data is being sold. We don’t do that. As an Australian legal practice, we are bound by strict professional duties to protect the confidential and privileged nature of lawyer-client communications. Your trust is our most valuable asset.

While we take rigorous steps to guard your data, no system is infallible. Information can be accessed in two ways:

  • Lawfully: For example, via a valid court order or statutory requirement (e.g. suspicious transaction reports to Austrac).
  • Unlawfully: For example, through sophisticated cyber-attacks or theft.

Our Guarantee: We will hold and secure your information to the high standards reasonably expected of a modern law firm. This includes strict adherence to professional rules of conduct and the implementation of robust digital and physical security precautions.

We align our practices with the Information Privacy Principles (found in the Information Privacy Act 2009). While we may not always be strictly bound by the Australian Privacy Principles (Privacy Act 1988) or the EU’s General Data Protection Regulations, we treat their core requirements as best-practice benchmarks and apply them to our operations where relevant.

By using our website, you acknowledge and accept this policy. If you have questions, wish to lodge a complaint, or need to correct information we hold about you, please contact us.
