How We Collect Information

Information Provided to Us Directly

I collect the information you provide to me through my website contact forms and newsletter subscription service. This information is supplied directly by you at the time of enquiry.

Information Collected Automatically

Cookies are online identifiers that associate a person with their website visits and clicks. I use the HubSpot platform and other third-party cookie trackers to understand the location, access times, referral sources, interests, and browsing patterns on my website.

Information from Third Parties

From time to time, I may receive personal information about you from third-party sources with which I engage in joint marketing activities, and publicly available sources such as social media websites.

How We Use Information

My basis for keeping and using the data I collect is legitimate interest. The data is supplied directly by you for the purposes of exploring a potential working relationship or receiving marketing communications.

Compliance with Our Privacy Policy

The data collected is only used in compliance with this privacy policy. Your data will never be sold to a third party.

I may use data held for the purposes of:

  • Entering into a contract with you to provide marketing consultancy services
  • Communicating with you about my services and offerings
  • Sending you informative content, insights and resources that may be of interest to you based on the information you have supplied
  • Enhancing my website and social media to optimise user experience
  • Producing internal reports and statistics for the purposes of optimising my business and services

Retention of Data

My basis for retaining and using data is legitimate interest. I retain information that you provide to me when I believe there is an ongoing legitimate interest for both your business and mine. I consider storing and using data up to 26 months after last engagement as appropriate to the typical consideration timeframe for marketing consultancy services.

Engagement is considered to be:

  • Website visit
  • Email interaction
  • Direct contact via contact form or newsletter subscription
  • Any other form of contact that engages electronically or physically with Jonathon Shipton

I commit to deleting information and data that has been provided if more than 26 months passes without engagement from you.

Security of Data

I am committed to maintaining best practices to ensure that data is kept secure and confidential. All data is stored within HubSpot systems, which are secure and compliant with both the General Data Protection Regulation and the Privacy Act 1988.

In addition to this, I commit to:

  • Keeping up to date with the latest developments in data privacy laws and implementing best practice procedures
  • Having a strong reporting process for any data privacy breaches
  • Ensuring all firewalls are kept up to date

Transfer of Data

Jonathon Shipton operates from Queensland, Australia. The collection of data is not done from within the EU or other parts of the world. By completing our web forms, you are providing data to an Australian business and are therefore transferring your own data out of your own country and into Australia.

Jonathon Shipton is compliant with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and adheres to the principles of the General Data Protection Regulation in the EU. All data regardless of its origin will be handled in accordance with this policy and within the framework of these laws.

Your Rights: Access and Amendment of Data

You have the following rights around accessing and amending your information. You may:

  • Know what data we hold about you, and make sure it is correct
  • Request a copy of your data, or ask us to restrict processing your information
  • Withdraw your consent for collecting or processing your information at any time
  • Request your information be deleted
  • Complain about our collection and use of your information

If you are unhappy with how we are processing your information, please send an email to hello@jonathonshipton.com and we will review and investigate your complaint within a reasonable timeframe.

You may also complain to a data protection authority about our collection and use of your personal information. In Australia, this is the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).

Deletion of Data

At any time you may unsubscribe from our communications by clicking the unsubscribe button at the bottom of your email.

At any time you may write to us at hello@jonathonshipton.com and request that your information be deleted in its entirety. I commit to deleting all your data within a reasonable timeframe and communicating with you when this happens.
