8. Cookies and website analytics
Our website and service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to:
- operate essential website functions;
- remember your preferences and login status;
- understand website traffic and visitor behaviour;

- improve the website and user experience.
Analytics services may collect information such as your IP address, browser, device, pages visited, referring website and the date and time of your visit.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings or through any cookie controls provided on our website. Disabling some cookies may affect the operation of certain website features.

We may send you newsletters, educational updates, product announcements and promotional communications where you have provided consent or where otherwise permitted by law.
You can unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in our marketing emails or by contacting us at support@homemastery.com.au.
We will process unsubscribe requests within the timeframe required by law. Unsubscribing from marketing communications will not prevent us from sending necessary account, payment, security or service-related messages.
10. User-generated content
If you submit comments, reviews, forum posts or other content to an area of the website that is visible to other users or the public, that information may be publicly accessible.
You should avoid including personal, confidential or sensitive information in publicly visible content.
We may moderate or remove user-generated content in accordance with our terms and community standards.
11. Security
We take reasonable administrative, technical and physical steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
These measures may include access controls, secure service providers, encryption, system monitoring and staff or contractor confidentiality requirements.
However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system is completely secure. You should protect your account password and notify us promptly if you suspect unauthorised use of your account.
If a data breach occurs, we will investigate and respond appropriately. Where required by the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme, we will notify affected individuals and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.
12. How long we retain information
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to:
- provide our products and services;
- maintain your account and transaction history;
- comply with taxation, accounting and legal obligations;
- resolve disputes;
- prevent fraud and security incidents; and
- enforce our agreements and protect our legal rights.
When personal information is no longer reasonably required, we will take reasonable steps to securely destroy or de-identify it, unless we are required or authorised by law to retain it.
13. Accessing or correcting your information
You may request access to personal information we hold about you or ask us to correct information that is inaccurate, incomplete, out of date, irrelevant or misleading.
You can also update certain information through your Home Mastery account, where that functionality is available.
To make a request, contact us at support@homemastery.com.au. Please include sufficient details for us to understand and respond to your request. We may need to verify your identity before providing access or making a correction.
We will respond within a reasonable period. In some circumstances, the law may permit us to refuse access or correction. If this occurs, we will explain the reason where we are permitted to do so.
