These permissions are retained in our business email records. 

Customer photographs and testimonials may be published on our website, social media channels, brochures or other marketing platforms, in accordance with the permission provided. 

If you have questions about the use of your image or testimonial, please contact us. 

  1. Storage and security of personal information

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. 

Our website is managed by MyWork and hosted through WP Engine in Sydney, Australia. Website security measures include HTTPS encryption, firewalls, security monitoring and regular backups. 

Personal information submitted through our website enquiry forms is stored in WordPress and emailed to authorised Coldon Homes team members. Uploaded files may also be stored on the website hosting server. 

Access to website information is managed through individual user accounts and permissions, with access provided to authorised personnel and service providers as required. 

Customer sales enquiries, including those received through our website and social media advertising, are generally retained for up to 12 months, unless the information is required for an ongoing customer relationship, building project or applicable legal obligation. 

Enquiries received through third-party platforms, including Meta, may also be subject to those platforms’ own data retention arrangements. 

We retain other personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required or authorised by law. 

When personal information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to securely delete or de-identify it, including information held by relevant service providers, unless we are required or authorised by law to retain it.

Coldon Homes’ website is hosted in Sydney, Australia, through WP Engine. 

We use third-party technology and service providers to support our website, communications, advertising and business operations. 

Some third-party services, including Google and Meta, may process personal information outside Australia, including in the United States. 

Where personal information is disclosed to overseas recipients, we take reasonable steps to ensure it is handled in accordance with applicable Australian privacy requirements.
