Privacy policy
This describes exactly what the site records about you, and what it does not.
Last updated 15 September 2026
Who is responsible for your data
News Info Services Pty Ltd (ACN 104 623 690), 26 South Street, Granville NSW 2142, Australia. For any privacy question or request, email contact@postabay.com.
We handle personal information in line with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles. Because the site is read internationally, we also apply UK/EU GDPR standards to readers in those regions.
What we collect
If you decline analytics, we collect none of the following. Analytics are off until you press “Accept” on the consent banner.
| Data | Why | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| IP address | Distinguish one reader from another and get a rough sense of audience location | Consent |
| Browser user agent | Understand which devices the site must work on | Consent |
| Which articles you opened and how many seconds you spent on each | See which coverage readers actually find useful | Consent |
| Email address | Only if you submit it to the newsletter form, to send you the newsletter | Consent |
We do not collect names, payment details, precise location, or contacts, and we do not build advertising profiles or run third-party ad trackers.
How long we keep it
Analytics records are deleted after 180 days. Newsletter email addresses are kept until you unsubscribe. The visitor cookie expires after one year.
Who we share it with
Nobody. The data stays on our own server and is not sold, rented, or passed to advertisers or data brokers. We will disclose data only where legally compelled to.
Your rights
You can ask us to access, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you, and you can withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawing consent is immediate — use the reject option on the cookie banner, or clear this site's storage in your browser. Readers in the UK, EU or EEA additionally have the right to export their data and to object to processing.
To make a request, email contact@postabay.com. We will respond within 30 days.
If you are not satisfied with our response, you can complain to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au. Readers in the UK, EU or EEA may instead complain to their national data protection authority.
Where your data is held
Data is stored on servers operated for Postabay and is not transferred to third parties. Where our hosting is located outside Australia, that transfer is covered by Australian Privacy Principle 8.
Newsletter
Marketing emails are sent only to addresses submitted through the signup form, in line with the Spam Act 2003 (Cth). Every message identifies News Info Services Pty Ltd as the sender and carries a working unsubscribe link, which we action within five working days.
Cookies
The specific cookies in use are listed in the cookie notice.
Children
This site is aimed at an adult, general-interest audience and is not directed at children under 16.
Changes
If this policy changes materially we will update the date at the top of this page and ask for consent again where the law requires it.
