Privacy Policy

1. Our Commitment to Your Privacy

RealEstates.Report is committed to protecting your personal information and respecting your privacy rights in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). This policy explains how we collect, handle, protect, and manage information when you visit or interact with our Platform.

2. What Information We Collect

We operate on a privacy-first, minimal-collection principle:

• No Compulsory Account Creation: You can explore property metrics, suburb demographics, and school catchments freely without creating an account or providing your name or credit card.
• Voluntary Contact Information: When you send a message through our secure Contact Page, we receive the name, email address, topic, and message content you explicitly submit so that our support team can respond to your enquiry.
• Local Browser Preferences: Functional settings such as your light/dark theme preference and saved property shortlist are stored locally on your device (in your browser's local storage) and are never uploaded or synced to external servers.
• Technical Diagnostics & Threat Prevention: Like most online services, our secure Australian edge infrastructure records standard network request telemetry (such as your IP address, browser user-agent, and access timestamps) strictly for cyber-security monitoring, DDoS mitigation, and rate limiting.

3. How We Use Information

Information collected is utilized exclusively for:

• Delivering, maintaining, and improving platform performance and responsiveness;
• Responding directly to user inquiries, technical feedback, and support requests;
• Protecting the Platform against automated vulnerability probes, scraping abuse, and malicious attacks;
• Complying with applicable Australian statutory and regulatory requirements.

We do not sell, rent, monetize, or trade your personal information or contact details to third-party data brokers, marketers, or advertisers under any circumstances.

4. Data Security & Storage

We implement industry-grade security measures to protect information against unauthorized access, modification, disclosure, or loss. All transmissions between your browser and our edge network are encrypted using modern Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3 / 1.2). Contact messages are validated against malicious payloads and transmitted through isolated cloud infrastructure hosted in Australia.

5. Public Property & Demographic Records

The property market data, statistical summaries, suburb demographics, and school performance metrics displayed on RealEstates.Report are derived entirely from publicly accessible registries, government open-data publications, census releases, and published advertisements. We do not publish private contact details or unlisted personal information of individual property occupants or homeowners.

6. Access, Correction & Contact

Under the Australian Privacy Principles, you have the right to request access to any personal information we hold about you or request its correction or deletion. If you have any questions, privacy concerns, or feedback regarding our privacy practices, please contact our privacy officer through our Contact Page.
