1. About this policy
Dig Em Up Earthworks (“we”, “us” or “our”) provides mini excavation and earthworks services from Eight Mile Plains, Queensland. This policy explains how we handle personal information when you visit our website, contact us or arrange work with us. It also explains how to ask a question, request a correction or raise a privacy concern.
2. Information we collect
We collect information relevant to your enquiry or job. Depending on what you share and the work involved, this may include:
- Your name, phone number, email address and preferred contact time.
- Your suburb, job address, access details, project requirements and preferred timing.
- Photos, plans, measurements and messages you provide about the site.
- Quotes, booking correspondence, invoices and payment records relating to your work.
- Technical information generated when you visit the website, such as your IP address, browser, device, requested pages and connection or error logs.
Please only provide information needed for the job. Do not send identity documents, card details or sensitive personal information through a general enquiry.
3. How we collect information
We usually collect information directly from you when you call, email, send an enquiry or discuss a job with us. We may also receive relevant details from someone acting for you, such as a builder, landscaper or property manager. If you provide another person’s details, please make sure you are authorised to share them.
You can ask general questions without identifying yourself. We will need sufficient contact and site information to prepare a useful quote, arrange access or carry out work. If you choose not to provide that information, we may be unable to help with the request.
4. How we use information
We use relevant information to respond to enquiries, assess coverage and access, prepare quotes, schedule and carry out work, communicate about your job, process payments, keep business records and resolve questions or disputes. Technical information helps operate and protect the website.
We do not sell or rent your personal information. Enquiring about a job does not subscribe you to a marketing list. If we send promotional messages, we will do so with the consent required by law and provide a way to opt out. You can also ask us to stop promotional messages by emailing digemupearthworks@gmail.com.
6. Website technology and maps
This website does not currently use advertising pixels or third-party audience analytics. Website infrastructure and embedded services may process technical information or use cookies and similar technologies for functionality, security and service delivery.
Where an interactive Google Map is displayed, your browser connects to Google. Google may receive information such as your IP address, browser details and map interactions, and may use cookies under its own Privacy Policy. A static coverage illustration does not require a connection to Google Maps.
You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Blocking them may affect third-party features. Links to other websites are provided for convenience; those websites handle information under their own policies.
7. Email and overseas processing
Our contact email uses Google’s Gmail service. Messages and attachments sent to us may therefore be stored or processed by Google outside Australia, including in the United States and other countries where it operates. Google publishes its privacy and international transfer information and data centre locations.
Other technology providers may also use overseas infrastructure. Processing locations depend on the service involved. Contact us if you would like information about the providers relevant to your enquiry. We will comply with any overseas disclosure obligations that apply to us.
8. Security and retention
We take reasonable steps to protect the information we hold from misuse, loss and unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure. Access should be limited to people who need it for the purposes described in this policy. No website, email service or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
We keep information for as long as reasonably needed to manage enquiries and work, maintain required records and address legal or business obligations. When it is no longer needed and we are not required to retain it, we take reasonable steps to delete it or remove identifying details. If a data breach occurs, we will assess it and make any notifications required by applicable law.
9. Project photos and reviews
Photos or plans supplied for a quote are used to understand and manage the job. Sending them does not give us unrestricted permission to use them in advertising. We will seek permission before publishing identifiable customer or property images for promotion. Contact us if a photo or review on our website identifies you and you would like us to review its use or remove identifying information.
10. Access, correction and deletion requests
You can ask what personal information we hold about you, request access, ask us to correct inaccurate information or request deletion by emailing digemupearthworks@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before releasing or changing records. We will respond within a reasonable time. If we cannot fulfil a request, for example because a record must be retained by law or contains another person’s information, we will explain the reason and any available options.
11. Privacy questions and complaints
Email digemupearthworks@gmail.com with a description of your concern and the outcome you are seeking. We will acknowledge the complaint, review the relevant information and aim to provide a response within 30 days. If we need longer, we will explain why and keep you informed.
If you are not satisfied, you can contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner for information about available complaint options. The OAIC’s ability to investigate depends on whether the matter and business are covered by the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when our services, information handling or legal requirements change. The current version will be published on this page with its update date. Where required, we will give additional notice or seek consent before using information in a materially different way.
