Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 26/05/2025

AusKeep (“we”, “us”, “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to handling your personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).

1. What Information We Collect

We collect the following types of personal information:

  • Full name, phone number, email address;
  • ABN and service category (for workers);
  • Job post content, reviews, and user activity;
  • Payment and transaction details (handled by third-party providers);
  • Device, location, IP address, and usage data (analytics and security purposes).

We collect only the data necessary to provide and improve our platform.

2. Why We Collect It

We use your data to:

  • Create and manage your account;
  • Facilitate secure job connections and transactions;
  • Share phone numbers and email only when both parties agree;
  • Maintain transparency via user reviews;
  • Monitor, detect and prevent fraud or abuse;
  • Comply with Australian laws and cooperate with law enforcement if required.

3. Disclosure of Information

We may disclose your data to:

  • Other users (with your explicit consent, e.g., phone number exchange);
  • Third-party services (e.g., Stripe, analytics, cloud hosting);
  • Government agencies or regulators if legally required;
  • Investigative authorities in case of verified reports or suspected illegal activity.

We do not sell or rent your data.

4. Storage and Security

We use secure Australian or international cloud providers with data encryption and access control.

We take reasonable steps to protect your data, but no digital system is completely secure.

5. Access and Correction

You have the right to:

  • Access your personal information;
  • Request corrections if the data is inaccurate or outdated.

For requests, contact us at assistance@auskeep.com.

6. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies and third-party analytics tools (e.g. Google Analytics) to:

  • Improve platform performance;
  • Understand user behavior and site usage.

You can disable cookies via your browser settings, though this may affect functionality.

7. Overseas Disclosure

Your personal data may be stored or processed by providers located outside Australia. We ensure any overseas transfers comply with APPs and implement necessary security measures.

8. No Labour Hire Activity

AusKeep does not operate as a labour hire provider, employer, or recruiter. We simply introduce parties, and all users are responsible for their own privacy compliance outside our platform (e.g. handling of phone numbers).

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy at any time. Changes will take effect once published on our site.

10. Complaints and Contact

If you believe we have breached the Privacy Act or your privacy rights:

You may also contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) if you’re not satisfied with our response.
