Accounts and the Job Board
If you create an account to post a job ad, we collect your email address, a username and, if you give them, your name and company details. We use this information to create and manage your account, to send you emails about your account and your ads (such as a password set-up link and approval notices), to check ads before they are published, and to prevent spam and scams.
- The details you enter in a job ad (such as the company name, job location, pay rate and the application email or link) are published on the website and can be seen by anyone. Only include contact details you are happy to share publicly.
- We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with other businesses for their marketing.
- You can edit or remove your ads from your Employer Dashboard, and you can ask us to close your account and delete your personal information at any time by contacting us.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use cookies to remember your preferences, measure how the site is used, and support advertising. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Some parts of the site may not work properly without them.
Google Analytics
We may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website. Google Analytics collects information such as pages visited and general location, and reports it to us in a combined form that does not identify you personally. You can learn more in How Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
We may display advertisements from Google AdSense and other advertising partners. These third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this website and other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this and other sites.
- You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info.
Affiliate Links
Some articles may contain affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. Affiliate partners may use cookies to track referrals.
Comments
When you leave a comment, we collect the details shown in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser information to help detect spam. An anonymised string created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check whether you use it. After your comment is approved, your name and comment are visible to the public.
Third-Party Websites
Our guides often link to official government websites and other useful resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those websites, so please read their privacy policies.
How Long We Keep Information
We keep personal information only for as long as we need it for the purposes above, or as required by law. Emails are deleted when they are no longer needed.
Keeping Your Information Safe
We take reasonable steps to protect your information, including secure hosting and keeping our website software up to date. However, no method of sending data over the internet is completely secure.
Your Rights
You can ask us what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. To make a request, email us at lifeinaustraliahubptyltd@gmail.com. If you are not happy with how we handle your request, you can contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).
