Data Security and Protection Measures

Protecting your personal information is fundamental to how we operate. We've implemented multiple layers of security to safeguard your data throughout its lifecycle with us.

Technical Safeguards

  • Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments of our systems
  • Access controls that limit staff access to information based on job requirements

Our offices at 10 Russell St, Toowoomba City maintain physical security measures including controlled access and secure document storage. Staff receive regular privacy training and sign confidentiality agreements.

Data Breach Protocol: If a security incident affects your personal information, we'll notify you and relevant authorities as required by Australian law, typically within 72 hours of discovery.

Data Retention and Deletion

We keep your information only as long as necessary for educational and legal purposes. Different types of data have different retention periods based on their purpose and regulatory requirements.
