- Information you provide directly, such as your name, email address, or message content when you fill out a contact form, subscribe to a newsletter, or otherwise communicate with us.
- Automatically collected information, including your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URLs, collected via Google Analytics.
- Security/verification data, collected via Cloudflare Turnstile when you submit forms, to confirm you are a genuine visitor and not an automated bot.
3. How We Use Your Information

- Operate, maintain, and improve the Website;
- Understand how visitors use the Website (via aggregated analytics);
- Respond to enquiries or requests you submit;
- Protect the Website from spam, abuse, and automated attacks;

4. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC (“Google”), to collect standard internet log information and visitor behaviour information in an anonymised/aggregated form where possible. Google Analytics uses cookies to help analyse how visitors use the Website.
The information generated by the cookie about your use of the Website (including your IP address) may be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers located outside Australia, including in the United States. Google may use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the Website, compiling reports on website activity, and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage.
Google’s use of information collected via Google Analytics is governed by Google’s Privacy Policy.
5. Cloudflare Turnstile
We use Cloudflare Turnstile, a service provided by Cloudflare, Inc. (“Cloudflare”), to help verify that interactions with our forms are performed by humans rather than automated bots, without requiring you to solve a traditional CAPTCHA.
Turnstile may collect certain technical data from your device and browser (such as IP address, browser characteristics, and device information) to assess whether your interaction with the Website is legitimate. This data may be transmitted to and processed by Cloudflare on servers located outside Australia, including in the United States.
Cloudflare’s handling of this information is governed by Cloudflare’s Privacy Policy. Further information about Turnstile specifically is available in Cloudflare’s Turnstile Privacy Policy.
6. Overseas Disclosure
Some of the third-party services we use (Google Analytics and Cloudflare Turnstile) may store or process personal information on servers located outside Australia, including in the United States. Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps to ensure these providers handle personal information in a manner consistent with the Australian Privacy Principles, including relying on the providers’ published privacy and data protection policies.
By using this Website, you consent to your personal information being handled in this way, where applicable.
7. Cookies
The Website uses cookies and similar technologies (such as those used by Google Analytics and Cloudflare Turnstile) to improve functionality and analyse usage. You can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, some parts of the Website may not function properly if you disable cookies.
7.1 WordPress Cookies
As the Website is built on WordPress, it may set its own cookies to support core functionality, including:
- Session and security cookies, used to maintain site security and general operation;
- Comment cookies (e.g.
comment_author_*,comment_author_email_*,comment_author_url_*), set if you leave a comment on the Website, to save your name, email address, and website in a cookie for your convenience so you don’t have to re-enter these details next time; - Login/authentication cookies (e.g.
wordpress_*,wordpress_logged_in_*), used only if the Website has registered users or an admin login, to manage secure access; - Preference cookies (e.g.
wordpress_test_cookie), used to check whether your browser accepts cookies.
Most WordPress cookies are strictly necessary for the Website to function correctly (particularly for logged-in administrators) and do not track your behaviour across other websites. Comment cookies, if applicable, typically expire after around 12 months.
If the Website uses any additional WordPress plugins that set their own cookies (e.g. caching, e-commerce, or form plugins), those cookies will be described in Section 15 (Cookies Policy) below, where relevant.
8. Disclosure of Information
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may disclose personal information to:
- Google (for analytics purposes, as described above);
- Cloudflare (for bot/spam protection purposes, as described above);
- Third parties where required by law, or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of others.
9. Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, interference, loss, and unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Access and Correction
Under the Australian Privacy Principles, you have the right to request access to, and correction of, the personal information we hold about you. To make such a request, please contact us at tony@millardmachinery.com.au.
