COOKIE COMPLIANCE

Cookie practices and requirements vary depending on the jurisdiction in which a website operates. EmailCollect is an Australian registered business and provides compliance to applicable Australian laws; however, as an internet-based platform, EmailCollect collaborates globally to conduct legitimate business and, therefore, provides compliance to various other global requirements. To find out more, see EmailCollect’s Privacy Policy which also provides information on how users’ personal information is processed.

To ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including cookie-related requirements, EmailCollect takes the following measures:

  • Conduct an audit: EmailCollect will periodically assess the cookies used by our hosting provider, CMS, and third-party services to understand their purpose and impact on visitor privacy.
  • Cookie Consent: Our website uses cookies for essential functions, and we implement a cookie consent banner or pop-up to allow visitors to provide explicit consent for the use of cookies on our website. Visitors also have the ability to control and manage their cookie preferences, including the option to opt-out or customise settings.
  • Cookie Preferences and Management: To manage your cookie preferences, including the ability to opt-out, delete, or disable cookies, please refer to our Cookie Consent banner or pop-up.
