1. Introduction

Weaps Communications (“we”, “us”, or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). By using our website, you agree to the terms of this policy.

3. How We Collect Data

Direct Interaction: When you voluntarily complete the enquiry form on our contact page, which is provided by Fillout.

Respond to your enquiry and provide quotes or scope of works.
Improvement: Understand how the site is used so we can make it more useful.
Marketing: Where you have opted in, send occasional updates. You can opt out at any time using the unsubscribe link. In compliance with the Spam Act 2003 (Cth), our marketing emails carry a working unsubscribe link.

5. Analytics

This website loads Google Analytics 4, which measures how visitors find and use the site and sets the _ga and _ga_GBJN8VKW1Q cookies. We do not run advertising or remarketing tags — no Google Ads, no Google Tag Manager and no Meta Pixel is installed. Analytics is not currently gated behind a consent banner. You can opt out with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or by blocking cookies in your browser.

Analytics Partners: Google, for website measurement.
Legal Obligations: Where required by Australian law.

7. International Data Transfers

As we use service providers such as Google, Fillout and our hosting provider, your personal information may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside Australia (including the United States). By providing us with your personal information, you consent to this disclosure. We take reasonable steps to ensure that any overseas recipient handles your personal information in accordance with the APPs.

8. Data Security

Our website uses industry-standard security measures, including SSL encryption and platform-level security controls, to protect data submitted via forms. While we strive to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.

9. External Links

Our website may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of those websites.

10. Children’s Privacy

Our website is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 15. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 15 without parental consent, we will take steps to delete it.
