What we collect
- Website usage data: typical server logs which may include IP address, user-agent, timestamps, basic security telemetry, and performance metrics.
- Whitepaper / form submissions: details you provide, including your consent preferences.
- Approximate location: we may infer region/country from your IP address to help route enquiries and measure reach.
- Email engagement: when we email you via our CRM, we may record opens and link clicks to understand interest and avoid unwanted messages.
How we use information
- To provide requested resources (e.g., sending by email)
- To respond to enquiries and deliver services

- To improve our site, content, and training programs
- With your permission, to send occasional updates about digital forensics, incident response, and training
Legal basis (Australia)
We handle personal information in line with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). Depending on the activity, our basis may include your consent (e.g., marketing emails), performance of a contract or pre-contract steps (handling enquiries, providing resources), and our legitimate interests (site security, service improvement). You can withdraw consent to marketing at any time.
Where we process data
We use several reputable providers. These providers may process data in Australia and internationally. We take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place.
Retention
We retain personal information only as long as needed for the purposes above. If you unsubscribe or ask us to delete your details, we will action your request within a reasonable period unless retention is required by law or to resolve disputes.
Your choices
- Download without email: on our resources pages you can choose “Skip & download” to access the PDF relevant without providing contact details.
- Marketing emails: use the unsubscribe link in any email or contact us to opt out.
- Access, correction, deletion: you may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information by emailing us.
Cookies & tracking
We minimise tracking. If analytics are enabled, they’re used in aggregate to improve the site. Our CRM may track email opens and link clicks so we can avoid sending irrelevant communications.
Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards (including TLS, least-privilege access, and logging). No method is 100% secure, but we strive to protect personal information from unauthorised access, use, or disclosure.
Children
Our services are designed for organisations and professionals. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
Changes
We may update this Policy. Material changes will be reflected on this page.
