About this policy
Handgun Safety Australia operates handgunlicence.com.au as an independent educational website. This policy explains how information may be handled when you use the site.
Information we collect
We may receive technical information automatically when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device information, referring page, requested pages and the date and time of your visit. Our hosting, security and content-delivery providers may process this information to operate, secure and improve the website.
If the site enables comments, enquiries or other forms, we may collect the information you choose to provide together with technical information used for security and spam prevention. Please do not submit sensitive personal information unless it is necessary.
Cookies
The website and its service providers may use essential cookies for security, traffic management and WordPress administration. Logged-in administrators may receive additional cookies that remember login and display preferences. Third-party embedded content may set its own cookies subject to the provider’s privacy practices.
How information is used
- to deliver and maintain the website;
- to protect the site from abuse, malicious traffic and spam;
- to respond to enquiries or requests;
- to understand and improve site performance and content; and
- to comply with applicable legal obligations.
Service providers and external links
The site is hosted and delivered using third-party infrastructure, including GoDaddy and Cloudflare services. WordPress security and anti-spam tools may also process technical data. We may link to police registries, clubs and other external websites. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, and we are not responsible for their content or data handling.
Retention and security
Information is retained only for as long as reasonably required for the purpose for which it was collected, including security, operational and legal requirements. Reasonable measures are used to protect information, but no online service can guarantee absolute security.
Access, correction and deletion
You may ask to access, correct or delete personal information held about you, subject to applicable legal and operational requirements. Use any current contact method published on this website and provide enough detail for the request to be identified.
