Last updated: 22 September 2026
1. About this Privacy Policy
Award Global Pty Limited (ABN 13 132 881 960) (“Award Global”, “we”, “us” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information we collect and hold.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, hold, use and disclose personal information and how you may access or correct your personal information or make a privacy-related complaint.
We handle personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), where applicable.
This Privacy Policy applies to our website at https://www.awardglobal.com.au, our online forms and digital services, and our interactions with customers, prospective customers, business partners, job applicants and other individuals.

Certain businesses within the Award Global group may maintain their own privacy policies where required by their particular services or regulatory obligations. Where a separate privacy policy applies, that policy will govern the relevant service.

You may opt out of receiving direct marketing communications at any time by:
- using the unsubscribe function contained in an electronic marketing communication; or

We will process opt-out requests within a reasonable period.
Opting out of marketing communications will not prevent us from contacting you where communication is necessary in connection with an existing service, transaction, enquiry, legal requirement or administrative matter.

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
These measures may include physical, administrative and technical safeguards, access controls, authentication measures, cybersecurity protections and the use of reputable technology and hosting providers.

Where required by applicable law, we will assess and respond to eligible data breaches in accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act 1988 and the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme.
11. Retention of Personal Information
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, comply with legal and regulatory obligations, resolve disputes and maintain appropriate business and transaction records.
The applicable retention period may vary depending on the type of information, the nature of our relationship with you and any applicable legal, regulatory, licensing or professional requirements.
When personal information is no longer required to be retained, we will take reasonable steps to securely destroy or de-identify it, subject to applicable legal requirements and reasonable backup and archival processes.
12. Access to Your Personal Information
You may request access to personal information we hold about you.
We will generally provide access within a reasonable period, subject to any exceptions permitted by law.

We may need to verify your identity before providing access to personal information.
13. Correction of Personal Information
We take reasonable steps to ensure that personal information we hold is accurate, complete, relevant and up to date.
If you believe that personal information we hold about you is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date, you may ask us to correct it.
We may request information necessary to verify your identity or the requested correction before updating our records.
