Privacy Policy

Your privacy is critically important to us. At Yfoundations, we have a few fundamental principles:

• We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it.
• We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
• We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the ongoing operation of one of our services.

Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals:

Yfoundations (ABN 20 512 756 029) operates this website. It is Yfoundations’ policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Yfoundations collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Yfoundations' purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Yfoundations’ visitors use its website. From time to time, Yfoundations may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g. by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Yfoundations also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Yfoundations does not use such information to identify its visitors and does not disclose such information other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Yfoundations’ websites choose to interact with Yfoundations in ways that require Yfoundations to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Yfoundations gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. In each case, Yfoundations collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfil the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Yfoundations. Yfoundations does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

Yfoundations may collect statistics about the behaviour of visitors to its websites. For instance, Yfoundations may monitor the most popular searches on the site. Yfoundations may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Yfoundations does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Yfoundations discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organisations that

(i) need to know that information in order to process it on Yfoundations’ behalf or to provide services available at Yfoundations’ websites, and

(ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others.

Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organisations may be located outside of your home country; by using Yfoundations’ websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Yfoundations will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organisations, as described above, Yfoundations discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when Yfoundations believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Yfoundations, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a Yfoundations website and have supplied your email address, Yfoundations may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Yfoundations and our products. If you send us a request (for example, via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Yfoundations takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorised access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
