Privacy Policy
How we handle the information you share with us through this website.
Last updated 9 August 2026
Who we are
Johnstone Business Intelligence ("Johnstone BI", "we", "us") is an Australian business providing business intelligence, reporting, data engineering, business application and continuous improvement services.
This policy explains how we handle personal information collected through this website, and how we meet our obligations under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles.
What information we collect
We only collect information you choose to give us. When you send an enquiry through this website we collect:
- Your name
- Your email address
- Your phone number, where you provide it
- Your company or organisation, where you provide it
- The content of your message
How we use your information
We use the information you provide to:
- Respond to your enquiry and continue the conversation
- Send you a copy of your own enquiry for your records
- Provide, scope and deliver services you ask us about
- Keep a record of business correspondence
Why we are allowed to hold it
We collect and hold this information because it is reasonably necessary to respond to your enquiry and to carry out our business activities. We do not use your details for unrelated marketing, and we do not sell personal information to anyone.
Who we share it with
We share personal information only with the service providers needed to run this website and deliver our email, and only to the extent required to provide those services:
- Our website hosting and application platform
- Our email delivery provider, which sends enquiry notifications and your confirmation copy
Overseas disclosure
Some of our providers store or process data on servers located outside Australia. Where that happens we take reasonable steps to ensure your information is handled consistently with the Australian Privacy Principles.
How long we keep it
We keep enquiry correspondence for as long as it is needed for the purpose it was collected, and for as long as required for our business and record-keeping obligations. When it is no longer needed we delete it or de-identify it.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, loss, unauthorised access, modification and disclosure. No system is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted over the internet.
Cookies and analytics
This website uses only the cookies and similar technologies needed for the site to function and to understand basic, aggregated usage such as page views. This information is not used to identify you personally. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings, though some parts of the site may not work as intended.
Your rights
You can ask us to:
- Confirm what personal information we hold about you
- Give you access to that information
- Correct anything that is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date
- Delete information we no longer need to hold
Complaints
If you believe we have mishandled your personal information, contact us at admin@johnstonebi.com and we will investigate and respond. If you are not satisfied with our response, you can raise the matter with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner at oaic.gov.au.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The current version always appears on this page, with the date it was last updated.
