1. Who We Are
Beautylivesieve, located at 49 McKenzie St, Ceduna SA 5690, Australia, is responsible for the personal information collected through beautylivesieve.world.
Contact: hello@beautylivesieve.world | Phone: +61 8 8625 2201
We manage personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). Where applicable, we also comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for visitors in the European Economic Area.
2. Personal Information We Collect
We may collect the following categories of personal information:
- Identity information: full name provided via the contact form
- Contact information: email address when voluntarily submitted
- Communication information: messages and inquiries sent through our contact form
- Technical information: IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited
- Cookie and preference data: choices stored in your browser and localStorage, as described in our Cookie Policy
We do not collect sensitive information (such as health records) through this website unless you voluntarily include it in a message. Please avoid sending sensitive information unless necessary.
3. Why We Collect and How We Use Information
We collect personal information only where it is reasonably necessary for our functions and activities. Purposes include:
- Responding to contact form inquiries and providing customer support
- Operating, maintaining, and improving our website and educational content
- Complying with legal obligations under Australian and, where applicable, international law
- Analytics and advertising measurement, only where you have given consent through our cookie banner
If you do not provide information we reasonably request (for example, name and email to respond to an inquiry), we may be unable to respond to your message.
We will not use your personal information for direct marketing unless you have consented or an exception under the Spam Act 2003 (Cth) or the Privacy Act applies. We do not send marketing emails solely because you submitted a contact form inquiry.
4. Collection Notice
When we collect personal information directly from you (for example, through our contact form), we aim to notify you at or before collection of:
- Our identity and contact details
- Why we are collecting the information and how we will use it
- Who else we may disclose it to
- That this Privacy Policy contains information about access, correction, and complaints
- Whether disclosure overseas is likely
By submitting the contact form with the required consent checkbox selected, you acknowledge this collection notice.
5. Disclosure of Personal Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may disclose information to:
- Service providers who assist with website hosting, analytics, email delivery, or technical support, subject to confidentiality and privacy obligations
- Professional advisers where reasonably required
- Regulators, courts, or law enforcement where required or authorised by law
Some service providers may be located outside Australia (including in the United States or European Union). Where personal information is disclosed overseas, we take reasonable steps to ensure recipients handle it in accordance with the APPs, such as contractual protections or use of providers that comply with comparable privacy standards.
6. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as needed for the purposes for which it was collected, unless a longer period is required by law. Contact form submissions are generally retained for up to 24 months after your inquiry is resolved. Technical and analytics data is retained for up to 26 months where consent has been given. Cookie preference records are stored until you clear your browser data or withdraw consent.
When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it.
7. Data Security and Notifiable Data Breaches
We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information, including HTTPS encryption, access controls, and secure hosting infrastructure. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.
If we become aware of a data breach that is likely to result in serious harm to affected individuals, we will comply with the Notifiable Data Breaches (NDB) scheme under the Privacy Act, including assessing the breach, notifying eligible individuals, and notifying the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) where required.

- Request correction of personal information that is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant, or misleading
- Make a complaint if you believe we have interfered with your privacy
- Withdraw consent for optional uses (such as analytics or marketing cookies), without affecting prior lawful processing
To exercise these rights, contact us using the details in section 1. We will respond within a reasonable period, generally within 30 days. We may need to verify your identity before providing access or making corrections.
