Disclosure

We prioritize the protection of your personal information and do not sell or rent it to third parties for marketing purposes without your explicit consent. However, we may disclose personal information to comply with legal requirements, enforce our policies, or safeguard rights, property, or safety. For instance, if false contact details are provided or impersonation occurs, we may share personal information with aggrieved third parties, their agents, or law enforcement agencies. Additionally, we may share personal information with epay to provide joint content and services, detect and prevent illegal acts, and inform decisions about their products, services, and communications. We also engage service providers to assist with our business operations

Security

We employ various tools such as encryption, passwords, and physical security measures to safeguard your personal information against unauthorized access and disclosure. However, it’s important to note that while we strive to ensure security, no system is infallible, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection.

Regarding access, modification, and deletion of personal information, you can review or alter your information by accessing your posting or account status page. For personal information not available on theboxman.com.au, please contact us for review. Please note that charges may apply for such requests, within the limits permitted by law. We delete personal information once it’s no longer necessary for the purposes outlined earlier.
