Privacy Policy

Last Updated: April 6, 2026

Visual Tonic collects only the information needed to run the studio and deliver services to clients. That includes things like your name, email address, and basic contact details. We don’t sell your personal information, and we don’t do anything shady with it.

Some data is shared with trusted third-party services that help run the business – like analytics and contact tools. We take reasonable steps to keep your information secure, and you can contact us at any time if you want to access, update, or delete your data.

What we collect

When you interact with visualtonic.com.au, we may collect the following information depending on how you engage with the site:

  • Contact and enquiry information. If you fill in the contact or project discovery form, we collect your name, email address, and any details you include in your message. This is used solely to respond to your enquiry.
  • Usage and analytics data. We use Google Analytics to understand how people use the site – things like which pages get visited, how long people stick around, and where traffic comes from. This data is aggregated and doesn’t personally identify you.
  • Communications. If you email us directly, we keep a record of that conversation so we can actually help you.

How we use your information

We use what we collect to run the studio and give you a good experience. Specifically:

To respond to your enquiries and deliver the services you’ve engaged us for. To manage ongoing client projects and maintenance plans. To improve the site based on how people use it. To detect and prevent misuse of the site or our contact channels.

We don’t sell your data. We don’t rent it out. We don’t hand it to anyone for their own marketing purposes.

Who we share it with

We only share your information with third parties who help run the business. Right now that includes:

Google Analytics – which receives anonymised usage data about how the site is used. Email and project management tools – used to manage client communication and project delivery. Payment processors – if you purchase a maintenance plan, payments are handled securely by third-party providers. We do not store or process card details on our servers.

If we add other tools that process your data, we’ll update this policy.

Cookies

Cookies are small files stored on your device that help websites work properly and understand how they’re being used.

  • Essential cookies. These keep things working – basic site functionality. The site doesn’t function properly without them.
  • Analytics cookies. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about how you use the site. This helps understand what’s working and what isn’t. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing their browser opt-out tool.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may affect how the site works for you.

Data retention

We keep your contact and enquiry information for as long as is reasonably necessary to respond and, where a project follows, to deliver and support that work. If you want your data deleted, email us and we’ll take care of it.

Your rights

Depending on where you are, you may have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, request corrections to it, request deletion of it, and withdraw consent for things like marketing emails.

If you’re in Australia, your rights are covered under the Australian Privacy Act 1988. To exercise any of these rights, just email us at zoe@visualtonic.com.au. We’ll respond as quickly as we can.

Data security

We take reasonable steps to protect your information from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. That said, no system is completely bulletproof – we do our best, but we can’t guarantee absolute security of data transmitted over the internet.

Third-party links

The site may link to other websites we don’t control. Once you leave visualtonic.com.au, we’re not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. Worth checking their policies if you’re concerned.

Children's privacy

Visual Tonic is not directed at anyone under 18. We don’t knowingly collect personal information from children. If we find out we have, we’ll delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. If we make significant changes, we’ll do our best to let you know – but checking back here occasionally isn’t a bad idea.
