Therefore, we are committed to protecting your privacy by keeping your personal information secure. We are bound by the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) found in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Privacy Act).

Our Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Policy explains how and why we collect, use, hold and disclose your personal information.

We may need to update this policy in the future. When we do, the updated version will be available on our website. It is your responsibility to review this page from time to time.

Our Privacy Policy may be downloaded in PDF format on our website.

What personal information do we collect?

The types of personal information we collect depends on your relationship with us. It differs depending on whether you are a shareholder, customer, supplier, employee, job applicant or referee. It may include sensitive information.

Customers: We collect and hold personal information about individuals that may include your name, address, email address, telephone number and the place and type of your business.

When assessing a new individual’s credit application, we may collect and hold various information about you and your financial position, including credit information, credit eligibility information, and credit references (please see our credit reporting policy for further information).

For individuals who are existing customers, we may collect and store your payment history.

Suppliers: We collect and hold personal information about individuals that may include your name, address, email address, contact telephone number and information about the goods or services that you supply.

Job Seekers: We collect and hold personal information including your name, address, email address, contact telephone number, gender, age, qualifications, employment history, references and details of referees. We may also collect and store other sensitive information.

Employees: This can include personal information like your name, date of birth, contact details (including address, email address, phone number or mobile telephone number), occupation, driver’s licence number, and financial information (such as your tax file number, bank account number and superannuation fund details) as well as emergency contact details of family and/or friends.

NOTE: The handling of your personal information that is directly related to your current or former employment with us or your employee records (if any) is exempt from the rules of the Privacy Act. That means we do not have to comply with those rules when handling your employee record for something that is directly related to your employment relationship with us.

Sensitive information: Examples include information or an opinion about a person’s racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, philosophical beliefs, membership of a trade union, sexual orientation, criminal history, health, genetic and biometric information. We will only collect sensitive information where you consent to the collection of the information. Sensitive information is only collected where it is reasonably necessary for one or more of our functions or activities. Under applicable laws, such as the Privacy Act, we are subject to strict requirements in relation to sensitive information.

You might also need to provide personal information about other individuals to us (e.g. about your authorised representatives). If so, we rely on you to have informed those individuals that you are giving their personal information to us and to have advised them about this statement.

How do we collect your information?

There are three ways that we can collect your information.

Directly

  1. You give it to us when you, or your representatives, interact with us. This may be through simple means such as a telephone call, email, through our Company website, an application or a form. It might happen when you set up a customer account with us to buy our products. It may occur when we set you up as a supplier to whom we’ll make payments. It may be when you apply for a job with us, when you start or during your employment with us.
  1. We collect your information via technology. This may be through lawful surveillance means such as the sign in out register at our sites or security alarm systems.

Indirectly

  1. We obtain information from outside sources like credit reports, marketing mailing lists, publicly available information (e.g. from the internet or social media sites) and commercially available information. This can also include information gained from our third-party partners if you deal with them. These partners include our commercial partners, credit checking bodies and retail or other customers and suppliers.

We will take reasonable steps to tell you about such collection at or before the time of collection or, if that is not practicable, as soon as practicable after it occurs.

How do we keep your information?

We may store your information in hard copy or electronic format.

We take all reasonable measures to ensure that your personal information is stored safely to protect it from interference, misuse, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure, including electronic and physical security measures. We use a combination of the latest industry standard technical solutions, security controls and internal processes to help us protect your information and our internal network from unauthorised access and disclosure.

How do we use your information?

We may use and disclose your personal information for a wide range of purposes including:

Business/Service Management: Your information helps us to ensure our business relationship with you is mutually rewarding. For example, we may need your personal details to provide you with our goods and services, to provide you with information about our goods and services, for verification, payment, billing, payroll purposes, and facilitating our internal business operations. We also need to communicate with you to provide you with a high standard of service that meets your needs. Having your up to date contact information helps us enhance this process for both you and us.

Credit account: If you apply for a credit account with us, we use and disclose your personal information to conduct a credit assessment of you, to assess your creditworthiness, and to report on your creditworthiness. Please see our credit reporting policy for further information.

Direct Marketing: We want to make sure that you know about all our products and special offers that are relevant and are of interest to you. So, we may use the information we hold to market and promote them directly to you. We will only use or disclose sensitive information about you for direct marketing purposes if you have consented to that use or disclosure. To opt out of Direct Marketing, see the How to contact us section below.

Recruitment & Selection: We review and retain personal information provided by you within a resume, cover letter or email. We gather this information to assess your job application. We do not retain personal information of unsuccessful job applicants for longer than is necessary. Some examples of information collected could include: educational level, qualifications & licensing, work history, experience and referees.

Employee Management: We may review and record personal information about you during your employment with us. This information could be in regard to employee engagement, training, safety hazards/ incidents, team and/or supervisor discussions, performance reviews, investigations and end of employment.

Compliance: There are several circumstances where we are required to collect, use or disclose employee information to comply with Australian law. These include collection of information for taxation, superannuation and certification purposes.

When do we share your information?

We use and disclose personal information about you for the purposes for which it was collected. We may disclose your personal information to:

  • our employees or contractors may access your personal information when there is a legitimate work-related purpose to facilitate our internal business processes;
  • our related entities or affiliated organisations, to facilitate our and their internal business processes
  • service providers, who assist us with providing our products and services and operating our business, such as banking and financial services, professional advisors (including legal services), insurance services, and IT services, and these service providers may not be required to comply with our privacy policy;
  • specific third parties authorised by you to receive information held by us; the police, national security agency, any relevant authority, or enforcement body if required by law or where we reasonably suspect you have been engaged in any unlawful activity and believe that disclosure is necessary;
  • third parties where required by law, binding regulation or court order;
  • a purchaser of the assets and operations of our business, if those assets and operations are purchased as a going concern; and third parties otherwise with your consent.

Customers/Suppliers: In addition to the list above, we may share your information with additional service providers, and, if you have a credit account with us, we may also disclose your information to credit reporting bodies, other credit providers, and third parties to whom we assign your debt (please see our credit reporting policy for further information). Such service providers may not be required to comply with our privacy policy.

Employees: In addition to the list above, we may also disclose your information to:

  • your authorised representatives or advisers, or others (e.g. your tax agent, bank, or other credit
  • provider) when you ask us to do so;

Third party privacy practices

Our website may contain links to other websites operated by third parties. We make no representations or warranties in relation to the privacy practices of any third party website and we are not responsible for the privacy policies or the content of any third party website.

It is The Customer’s responsibility to install any and all updates/patches to maintain the application’s security. If The Customer does not have the required skill to perform the updates, The Customer will need to employ the services of a Web Developer who is able to assist.

6.3.3 Maintaining Compatibility – The nature of shared hosting environments and server applications such as Apache, PHP and MySQL is that they are constantly being updated to maintain stability, performance and security. Keeping web based applications patched and up to date ensures both a secure website and data, and is also essential to maintain compatibility with changes in server applications. Bambrick incrementally updates all server applications on a regular basis and it is the responsibility of The Customer to maintain installed web applications to ensure compatibility with the latest stable and supported releases of all server applications.

6.4 Resource Usage – All hosting services purchased have a variety of resource limitations applied in accordance to the applicable plan associated with the service. It is The Customer’s responsibility to ensure their hosting service does not exceed the resources allocated and to upgrade their service if it is determined more resources are required to continue the smooth operation of a hosting service.

6.4.1 Resource Usage Abuse (excludes Dedicated Server Customers) – Bambrick implements per account resource restrictions on all Shared, Reseller and VPS hosting services which will vary from plan to plan. In addition to these, customers must not:

  1. Use 50% or more of the allocated CPU resources for more than 60 seconds.
  2. Run stand-alone, unattended server-side processes at any point in time on the server. This includes any and all daemons, such as IRCD.
  3. Run an account on any shared or reseller server as a file store for content not related to the operation and delivery of their web applications or that may breach the Bambrick AUP.
  4. Run any type of indexing software on any shared or reseller server.
  5. Run any software that interfaces with an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) network.
  6. Run any type of bit torrent application or tracker or participate in any illegal file-sharing activities.
  7. Run cron tasks on a shared or reseller server with intervals of less than 5 minutes.
  8. Run excessively large MySQL databases on shared or reseller servers. Databases with an excessive number of MySQL tables (in excess of 1000) or of a size greater than 1GB can negatively affect the performance of the server and are strictly forbidden.
  9. Run any MySQL queries longer than 15 seconds on shared or reseller servers. MySQL tables should be indexed appropriately and regularly maintained to ensure individual tables do not contain an excessive number of rows.
  10. Store multiple backups of a hosting service on any shared hosting server. Backup archives created by a server’s backup tools are designed to be downloaded off the server for maintaining offsite backups. Making backups that contain other backup archives can cause heavy load on the storage arrays and is strictly forbidden. Any hosting services found to have multiple backups on the server may have them removed without prior notification.
  11. Generate backups on Shared or Reseller Hosting for accounts consuming greater than 15GB of disk space. You must first contact Technical Support and then a backup will be generated for you.
  12. Store emails in the trash folder for longer than 30 days. Emails that have been in the Trash folder for more than 30 days will be automatically deleted.
  13. Use excessive VPS Resources due to misconfiguration. Where a customer has a self-managed or managed VPS we may make minor configuration changes without notice if that server’s configuration is negatively affecting other VPS Servers on the same host node.
  14. Store files in the cPanel trash folder. When files are deleted using the File Manager in cPanel they are temporarily stored in the cPanel Trash Folder. This folder containing deleted files will be automatically cleared every 30 days.

6.4.2 Inodes – Every file hosted on Bambrick servers uses 1 inode and accounts considered to be using an excessive number of inodes on shared or reseller servers will be required to upgrade their hosting service or remove some of the files from their hosting service. For shared and reseller hosting services an inode count of 250,000 or more is considered excessive and is generally the result of issues within a web application or a web application configuration that is not appropriate for a shared hosting environment. We recommend maintaining less than 100,000 inodes per account for optimal performance. For VPS hosting an inode count of 4,000,000 or more is considered excessive.

6.4.3 Bandwidth / Data Transfer Monitoring – Bandwidth / Data Transfer is monitored in a variety of ways across our range of services as outlined below:

  1. Shared Business and Reseller hosting plans that include “Unlimited” bandwidth are only monitored for high usage. This is done to ensure services using large amounts of bandwidth are doing so in accordance with our Terms of Service.
  2. All bandwidth is monitored on a calendar month cycle and may not correspond to the exact billing cycle of the service.
  3. Customer alerts are sent to the registered contact email address on file prior to any fixed bandwidth quota being reached. It is the customer’s responsibility to contact Bambrick to apply a suitable upgrade or add-on for the affected service to cover any extra usage beyond the fixed plan quota.
  4. For Shared hosting plans with fixed bandwidth quotas, exceeding the assigned quota will result in overage charges being applied. To avoid the higher overage charges, the service needs to be upgraded to the next plan that provides sufficient bandwidth to meet the customer’s requirements.
  5. For Reseller hosting plans with fixed bandwidth quotas, exceeding the assigned quota will result in the Reseller service and all sub-accounts being suspended until the plan is upgraded with additional bandwidth. to purchase additional bandwidth, the service needs to be upgraded to the next plan that provides sufficient bandwidth to meet the Reseller’s requirements.
  6. For VPS plans with fixed bandwidth quotas, exceeding the assigned quota will result in overage charges. To avoid the higher overage charges, the service needs to be upgraded to the next plan that provides sufficient bandwidth to meet the service’s requirements.
  7. For Dedicated and Virtual Dedicated Server plans with fixed bandwidth quotas, exceeding the assigned quota will result in overage charges. To avoid the higher overage charges, the service needs to be upgraded to the next plan that provides sufficient bandwidth to meet the service’s requirements.

6.4.4 Bandwidth Abuse – Bambrick reserves the right to shape, suspend, or terminate the service of any customer that is causing issues or performance problems for other customers on the Bambrick network. Bambrick reserves the right in a situation where a customer’s traffic is causing unviable costs to its business to either charge the customer at a rate that is viable (change plan/rate) or suspend/terminate the service.

6.5 Gaming Servers – Bambrick does not allow gaming servers on any part of our network. Services that are found to be in breach of this clause face immediate suspension without prior notification.

6.6 Media Streaming – Bambrick does not allow media streaming on Web Hosting, Reseller Hosting, Blaze or VPS plans. Customers wishing to deliver media-streaming services should use Dedicated Server Plans. Services that are found to be in breach of this clause face immediate suspension without prior notification.

Website Maintenance & Security Updates A slow-loading, poorly working website will negatively affect the success of any Digital Marketing Campaign. If a search engine determines that a website has broken pages, spam or viruses, it would no longer list the website in search results. Search engines make sure that the links served at the top of search results are quality websites that visitors would find helpful and relevant. To keep your Digital Marketing Campaign working optimally, regular website maintenance and security updates must be done. This includes checking the website’s back-end for any bugs and errors, monitoring search console, conducting link cleanup, security version updates and patches. The client’s website developer must ensure these tasks are completed regularly. If your website is built on one of our supported Content Management Systems we may be able to make changes to your website at our Professional Hourly Rate.

Full Focused NOT "Full Service"

What the the hell is a full-service-agency anyway?

Does it mean they will come and wash your car and mow your lawns every month as well as pretend to do some digital marketing?

Our Leaders

Tim Bambrick

MANAGING DIRECTOR

Tim started his career as a business analyst at age 6. 

His adolescent obsession with business strategy came from seeing the success and failure of his Dad’s businesses which included, but were not limited to: 

A fruit shop, a coffee shop, a restaurant, a caravan park, a driving school, a swimming school, a providore, a florist and a squash court (no kidding).

By the year 1999, when Tim was at uni, he’d had more business experience than most of his lecturers put together which made it the logical time to start ‘Bambrick’. 

22 years later, having consulted with 100’s of businesses, starting many of his own and investing in even more – there’s not many areas of commerce that Tim isn’t familiar with and can’t bring value to. 

Anyone who knows Tim will agree that he is Mr Consistency. Once he gets momentum in a certain direction, he’s near impossible to stop. 

For our team at Bambrick and our customers, this is both a blessing and a curse… 

On the positive side he is driven, tenacious, relentless and precisely the guy you want on your team when the odds are against you. 

But the flipside is he is also the ultimate follower-upperer, which can manifest as: 

“Is that done yet, is that done yet, is that done yet?” 

…which might drive you a little bit nuts.

Jason McMahon

DIRECTOR OF STRATEGY

Jason is the perpetual ‘why?’ guy. 

As our Director Of Strategy, he spends his days obsessing over the answer to this question:  

“How do we make this better?”

Most days, this obsession is a huge strength and it creates massive profits for our clients. 

But some days, it might drive you a little mad. 

As a client once put it: 

“If you don’t want it pulled apart, don’t put it in front of him.”
