4. Third-Party Cookies and Similar Technologies

Some features load resources from third-party domains. Those providers may set or read cookies or process technical data (such as IP address) according to their own policies:

  • Google Fonts: Web font delivery (see Google’s privacy information for how they process requests)
  • CDN / icon libraries: We use a public content delivery network to load Font Awesome stylesheets; that request may be logged by the CDN operator

Analytics and marketing tags: We do not currently load Google Analytics, Google Ads remarketing tags, or other analytics or advertising scripts on this website. Our cookie preference toggles exist so that if we add such tools in the future, they will only be activated when you have opted in to the relevant category (Analytics or Marketing) and saved your preferences.

Each third party operates under their own privacy and cookie policies. We encourage you to review their policies for more information.

Where cookie or pixel data constitutes personal information under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), we handle it in line with our Privacy Policy.
