Privacy Policy

Last updated: 26 September 2026

This policy explains how personal information is handled in connection with beratung.com.au (the website). References to “we”, “us” and “our” mean the website operator.

Information we collect and why

If you contact us, we receive your email address and any other information you choose to provide. We use that information to respond to your enquiry and keep relevant correspondence.

Operating and protecting the website involves processing technical information, which may include your IP address, browser and device details, the pages requested, referring pages, and the date and time of access. This information may be recorded in hosting and security logs to maintain the website, diagnose problems and prevent misuse.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4, deployed through Google Tag Manager, to understand how visitors find and use the website and to improve it. Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect information such as pages viewed, referral sources, browser and device characteristics, approximate location and interactions with website content.

We use this information for website statistics. We do not use it for targeted advertising or remarketing, and we do not run advertising campaigns.

Google processes information collected through Analytics. More information is available in Google’s Privacy Policy and its explanation of how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Google also provides an Analytics opt-out browser add-on for supported browsers. Blocking cookies may affect some website functions and does not prevent all technical requests or server logging.

Website resources and browser storage

The website loads fonts from Google Fonts. Loading those fonts involves your browser connecting to Google and sending technical information, including your IP address and browser details.

WordPress may use temporary browser storage to check whether your browser can display emoji. Where fallback emoji images are needed, your browser may request them from WordPress’s external image service. These functions support how the website displays.

Social and business profiles

We maintain profiles on LinkedIn, YouTube, Google Business Profile, Bing Places for Business, Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest. Links to these profiles take you to services operated by those platforms. Their own privacy policies govern information they collect when you visit or interact with them. Having these profiles does not mean we use their advertising pixels on this website.

Service providers and disclosure

Information may be handled by providers that support the website and our communications, including hosting, security, email, backup and analytics providers. We use information for the purposes described in this policy and may disclose it where required or authorised by law, or where reasonably necessary to investigate misuse or protect legal rights.

Some providers, including Google, operate internationally. Information may therefore be processed or stored outside Australia. The countries involved depend on the provider and service used. You can contact us for further information about the providers relevant to your enquiry.

Security and retention

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information against misuse, loss and unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure. No internet transmission or storage system is completely secure.

We retain information for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes for which it was collected, including relevant legal and record-keeping requirements. When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete or de-identify it, subject to applicable requirements and backup cycles.

Requests and complaints

For privacy questions, complaints or requests to access, correct or delete personal information, email privacy@beratung.com.au. We may need to verify your identity before responding to a request.

We will consider your request and explain our response, including any applicable legal requirements or limits. If a privacy complaint remains unresolved, you may be able to contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner, where the matter falls within its jurisdiction.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes to the website or our information-handling practices. The current version will appear on this page with its updated date.
