Examples may include providers such as Google Workspace, Microsoft services, hosting providers, Notion, Jira, Stripe, or similar operational platforms. These providers may store or process information on servers located in Australia or overseas. While we take reasonable steps to work with reputable providers, third-party platforms operate under their own privacy and security practices.

Some service providers or infrastructure providers used by RizeC may operate internationally.

As a result, personal information may be transferred, processed, or stored outside Australia.

Where overseas disclosure occurs, we take reasonable steps to ensure information is handled in accordance with privacy standards reasonably comparable to Australian privacy obligations.

However, users acknowledge that overseas jurisdictions may have different privacy laws and enforcement mechanisms.

RizeC understands that clients may provide commercially sensitive, strategic, or confidential information.

We take reasonable steps to maintain confidentiality through:

• Password-protected systems
• Secure cloud-based workflows
• Restricted project visibility
• Secure communication practices
• Operational confidentiality procedures

Where required, separate Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) or confidentiality agreements may be executed. Unless required by law or authorised by the client, confidential project information will not be intentionally disclosed to unrelated third parties.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information from:

• Unauthorised access
• Misuse
• Interference
• Accidental disclosure
• Modification
• Destruction
• Loss

Despite reasonable precautions, no internet-based system or electronic storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Users acknowledge that transmission of information over the internet carries inherent risks.

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for:

• Active project delivery
• Ongoing support obligations
• Legal or accounting requirements
• Internal business operations
• Dispute resolution
• Record-keeping purposes

When information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to securely delete, destroy, or de-identify information where appropriate.

Individuals may request access to personal information held by RizeC, subject to applicable legal exceptions.

Individuals may also request corrections where information is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated.

In certain circumstances permitted by law, access requests may be refused.

• Relevant business announcements
• Marketing communications

Recipients may opt out of non-essential marketing communications at any time using available unsubscribe methods or by contacting us directly. We do not intentionally engage in spam practices.

Our services are primarily intended for businesses and professional users.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate consent.

Where projects relate to childcare, education, or family-oriented industries, responsibility for operational compliance relating to end-user data remains with the relevant business operator unless otherwise agreed in writing.
