Introduction
Best Review (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and your rights in relation to it.
What personal information we collect
We may collect personal information you provide directly, such as your name and email address when you contact us through our Contact page. We also automatically collect some non-identifying technical information when you visit the Website (see “Log files” below). We don’t ask for or knowingly collect sensitive information such as health, financial, or government ID details.
Browsing anonymously
You can browse and read the Website without identifying yourself or providing any personal information. You only need to provide personal information if you choose to contact us directly.
How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your enquiries and messages
- Operate, maintain, and improve the Website
- Understand how visitors use the Website
- Detect and prevent fraud or misuse of the Website
We don’t sell your personal information, and we don’t disclose it to third parties except as described in this policy or as required by law.
How long we keep your information
We only keep personal information you send us through the Contact page for as long as needed to respond to your enquiry, after which it’s deleted or archived securely.
How we protect your information
We take reasonable technical and organisational steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure.
Log files
Like most websites, our hosting provider automatically logs standard technical information for every visit, including IP address, browser type, referring/exit pages, and timestamps. This information is used for site administration and traffic analysis and isn’t linked to your identity.
Cookies and web beacons
We use cookies to remember visitor preferences and understand how the Website is used. Some of our advertising and affiliate partners may also place cookies through links on our site. You can disable cookies through your browser settings at any time — for details, check your browser’s help documentation.
Analytics and advertising partners
We use Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors use the Website, such as which pages are viewed and how visitors arrive at the site. We don’t use special UTM tracking parameters beyond Google Analytics’ standard tracking. Our advertising partners, including Google, may also use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of personalised advertising through Google’s Ads Settings, or review Google’s own privacy policy at policies.google.com/technologies/ads. We don’t have access to or control over cookies placed by third-party advertisers or affiliate networks.
Overseas disclosure
Some of the service providers we use, such as Google Analytics and our advertising partners, are based overseas (including in the United States) and may store or process information there. By using the Website, you consent to this handling of information as described in this policy.
Third-party websites
This Website contains links to third-party websites, including retailers and affiliate partners. This Privacy Policy applies only to bestreview.au — we recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any third-party website before providing your personal information to it.
Your privacy rights under Australian law
Under the Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles, you have the right to:
- Ask what personal information we hold about you and request a copy of it
- Request correction of any personal information that is inaccurate or out of date
- Make a complaint about how we’ve handled your personal information
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. We aim to respond to all requests within a reasonable time, generally within 30 days. If you’re not satisfied with our response, you can lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au.
Children’s privacy
Best Review does not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we’ll remove it promptly.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Continued use of the Website after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
