Privacy Policy
Last updated: 9 November 2026
1. Who I am
Sinalorus (ABN 69 576 449 930) is a web design business operated by Cyrus Whetstone in South Australia. This policy explains how I collect, use, store and share your personal information. I follow the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). Sinalorus is a small business, so I may not be legally required to follow them, but I choose to anyway. South Australia’s Information Privacy Principles apply to SA government agencies, not to private businesses like mine.
2. What I collect
- Your name, business name, email address, phone number and location (country, state and city). Your phone number and location are optional.
- Your budget range, preferred contact method and the message you send me.
- Any project details, files or feedback you share while we work together.
Please don’t send sensitive information such as health or financial account details. This website doesn’t use advertising cookies or tracking pixels. My hosting provider may record basic technical data like your IP address.
3. How I collect it
Mostly through the contact form on this site, which opens your email app so you can send me the message, and through emails, calls and messages you send me directly, including on Instagram or TikTok.
4. How I use it
I use your information to reply to you, prepare quotes, build and deliver your website, send invoices and meet my legal obligations. If you ask me to contact you about your business, I’ll only use your details for that. I don’t send marketing without your consent, in line with the Spam Act 2003 (Cth), and you can ask me to stop at any time.
5. Who I share it with
I never sell or rent your information. I only share it with service providers that help me run Sinalorus, such as email (Gmail), web hosting and accounting tools, or when the law requires it. Some of these providers store data overseas, such as on Google’s servers, and I take reasonable steps to choose providers that protect your information.
6. Social media
The Instagram and TikTok links on this site go to third-party services with their own privacy policies. I’m not responsible for how they handle your information.
7. Security and how long I keep it
I take reasonable steps to protect your information from misuse, loss and unauthorised access. I keep it only as long as I need it for your enquiry or project, then delete or de-identify it. Business and tax records may be kept for up to 5 years as the law requires.
8. Access and correction
You can ask to see the personal information I hold about you, or ask me to correct it or delete it. Email me and I’ll respond within a reasonable time, usually within 30 days.
9. Complaints
If you’re unhappy with how I’ve handled your information, please contact me first and I’ll try to fix it. If you’re still not satisfied, you can contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au or on 1300 363 992.
10. Changes to this policy
I may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be on this page.
