5. Disclosure of Information
I may disclose your personal information to:

I will not sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes without your explicit consent.
6. Overseas Disclosure
Some of my service providers are located outside Australia, primarily in the United States. These include platform and payment providers used to deliver Jobclub services. Where I disclose personal information to overseas recipients, I take reasonable steps to ensure they comply with the Australian Privacy Principles or are subject to substantially similar privacy protections.
7. Data Security
I take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification, and disclosure. Security measures include secure socket layer (SSL) encryption for data transmission, password protection and access controls, and regular security assessments and updates.
However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. I cannot guarantee absolute security of your information.
8. Data Breach Notification
In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in serious harm to any individual whose information is involved, I will comply with the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). This includes notifying affected individuals and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner as soon as practicable after becoming aware of the breach. I will also take immediate steps to contain the breach and assess the risk of harm.

Jobclub does not currently use automated decision-making systems to make decisions that significantly affect your rights or interests. If this changes, this policy will be updated to reflect that use and explain how it operates in accordance with Australian privacy law.
