Privacy Policy (Australia)

Last updated: 11/01/2026

GuardianWave Pty Ltd ("GuardianWave", "we", "our", "us") is an interpretive risk and threat-trajectory advisory operating in Australia.

This Privacy Policy explains how personal information is handled in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), to the extent they apply.

1. Scope and Application

This policy applies to personal information that GuardianWave may collect when you:

  • Contact us directly (for example, by email or enquiry form, if enabled)
  • Interact with our website where personal information is voluntarily provided

This policy does not apply to third-party websites or services linked from our site.

2. Personal Information We May Collect

We may collect limited personal information that you choose to provide, such as:

  • Name
  • Organisation or role
  • Contact details
  • Contextual information included in correspondence

We do not actively seek sensitive information as defined under the Privacy Act. If sensitive information is provided unsolicited, it is not used for analytical purposes.

3. Purpose of Collection

Personal information is collected only where reasonably necessary to:

  • Respond to enquiries
  • Determine whether a potential engagement is within GuardianWave's scope
  • Communicate regarding services, where requested

Information is not collected or used for surveillance, monitoring, profiling, or automated decision-making.

4. Analytical Work and Individuals

GuardianWave's work is interpretive and environment-focused. We do not:

  • Investigate individuals
  • Verify allegations
  • Attribute intent, motive, or wrongdoing

Any reference to individuals occurs only in public or organisational contexts and is not investigative in nature.

5. Storage and Security

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

However, no system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

6. Disclosure of Information

We do not sell or trade personal information.

Disclosure may occur only where:

  • Required or authorised by law, or
  • Necessary to respond to a lawful request

7. Access and Correction

You may request access to, or correction of, personal information held about you, subject to legal limitations under the Privacy Act.

8. Overseas Disclosure

GuardianWave does not routinely disclose personal information overseas. If this position changes, reasonable steps will be taken to comply with applicable APP requirements.

9. Complaints

Privacy concerns may be raised by contacting GuardianWave directly. If unresolved, complaints may be made to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.
