We value your privacy and commit to taking all possible and necessary steps towards ensuring that users’ data and personal details are subject to appropriate standards and laws for maintaining privacy and confidentiality as required by Australian privacy laws, including international laws and policies for appropriate interactions and responsibilities for data, safety, security and sharing across all web-based platforms.

In this regard, Yuruwan collects general personal data which may include contact information such as first, last and/or tribal names, contact telephone numbers, email addresses, postage addresses and other analytical data including but not limited to demographics, and interests.

As an automated response to user engagement generated by Squarespace, collection and use of information which contains no personally identifiable data, your computer’s internet protocol (IP) may be received and this can include operating system, pages visited on our site, date and time of visit, and geographic location. This data is used by our administrators to determine usability, access, traffic and frequency of visits to guide our work and gauge content interest levels.

While the Yuruwan website may contain links to third party websites, Yuruwan does not assume responsibility for any information/s shared, submitted or distributed to third parties, and this information once shared outside of the Yuruwan website will become subject to the third party’s policy. We encourage that users familiarise themselves with these policies as they pertain to differentiate site use.

Where Yuruwan does request any personal information or data, such as cookies, this information will be collected to administer Yuruwan operational procedures, and contributors, licensees and users of the Yuruwan site who provide consent to publish, promote, or distribute materials through us may be identified and thus identifiable to exposure to external or third parties, however this will not include any personal or intimate details that we do not have consent from users to share. It is important to note that this will not include any instances where Yuruwan is bound by federal Laws which require the sharing of personal data. Other non-identifiable data such as cookies and Squarespace and Google site analytics may be used to improve our service provision, performance, security, and operations.

Many websites will request access to cookies, and some website will accept cookies automatically. We encourage users to monitor their cookies and cookies preferences and alter as necessary in their selected browser, however, choosing not to receive certain cookies may impact usability.

We intend to protect and effectively manage users’ data to the best of our ability, to avoid corruption of the data and maintain a high level/s of security and privacy. In efforts to do so, we rely on a number of safeguards through Squarespace and Google to optimise privacy and user discretion, and while no method of data protection and maintenance is 100% secure, network and systems-based configurations can be subject to compromise, in any case we will continuously update and continue to take measures to protect user data and personal information from loss or unauthorised use or access.

All information collected is collected and stored in various locations, with Squarespace and Google Workspace as primary providers of data storage, containment and processing. Information collected may be subject to these policies, however, Yuruwan may also store personal information and data locally which will be under the protection and maintenance of Australian Laws regarding privacy, confidentiality, along with digital safety, harassment, discrimination and misconduct.
