Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy outlines how Product Vibing ("we", "our", "us") collects, uses, and stores personal information when you access our website productvibing.com.

We are committed to protecting your privacy in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), and applicable global standards like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

2. What Information We Collect

We only collect the minimum amount of personal information necessary to operate and improve the experience.

This may include:

• First name
• Email address
• Core professional skill (selected by you)
• Responses to our assessment (non-identifiable unless tied to email)
• Browser type, device type, and IP address (via analytics)

We do not knowingly collect personal data from users under 16 without verified parental consent.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use this information to:

• Provide you with personalised results from the Product Vibing assessment
• Send your results and follow-up content to your email (if you consent)
• Improve the performance and content of our website
• Conduct basic analytics to understand aggregate user behaviour
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not use your data for advertising or profiling.

4. Legal Basis for Processing (for EU/UK residents)

If you are located in the European Economic Area or UK, we only process your data when we have a lawful basis:

• Consent — e.g., when you submit your email to receive results
• Legitimate interest — e.g., improving the website's functionality
• Legal obligation — e.g., complying with regulatory requests

You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us.

5. Data Storage and Retention

• Data you enter (email, assessment responses) is stored securely on our database and/or in browser local storage.
• Local storage is only accessible on your device and not shared with third parties.
• We retain minimal user data and delete inactive records regularly unless required for legitimate business or legal purposes.

6. Tracking Technologies

We do not use cookies. However, we use local storage and similar browser technologies to:

• Store your progress in the assessment
• Help pre-fill your information if you return
• Maintain a smoother user experience

You can manage or delete local storage via your browser settings.

7. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal data, including:

• HTTPS encryption (SSL) for secure data transmission
• Access controls and strong authentication for admin access
• Database protections to prevent unauthorised access

This is why we keep data collection to a minimum — only capturing what's necessary to deliver your results and improve your experience. However, no method of electronic transmission is ever 100% secure.

8. Disclosure to Third Parties

We do not sell or rent your personal data.

We may share data with trusted service providers (e.g. email platforms, web hosts, analytics tools) strictly for the purpose of operating the site. All third parties are required to comply with relevant data protection laws.

9. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access, correct, or delete your data
• Withdraw your consent
• Object to certain processing
• Lodge a complaint with your data protection authority

To exercise any of these rights, email us at info@productvibing.com.

10. International Data Transfers

As an Australian business, we may transfer data to servers or service providers outside your home country. We take reasonable steps to ensure that any overseas recipient protects your data in a way consistent with this policy.

11. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The most recent version will always be available at productvibing.com/privacy.html. Your continued use of the website means you accept any changes.
