FarGrit Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 7 May 2026
1. Our Commitment to Privacy
FarGrit (“FarGrit”, “we”, “us”, “our”) is an Australian consulting, advisory, and early-stage investment firm. We are committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing personal information in compliance with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
This policy applies to information collected through fargrit.com and its subdomains, and through email and other electronic correspondence with us.
If you are located outside Australia, your information may be transferred to and processed in Australia. By using this site, you consent to that transfer. We apply the Australian Privacy Principles as a baseline standard — these are broadly consistent with privacy frameworks in the EU (GDPR), UK, and other jurisdictions.
2. Information We Collect
Personal Information — information by which you may be personally identified, including:
- Contact details such as your name and email address, collected when you reach out to us or subscribe to updates.
- Professional details you voluntarily provide, such as your role, organisation, or investment interests.
- Correspondence records from email or contact form submissions.
Non-Personal Information — information that does not identify you, including:
- Technical data such as browser type, operating system, and IP address.
- Aggregated usage data such as page views and traffic patterns, used for analytical purposes only.
3. How We Collect Information
Directly from you — when you contact us by email, submit a form, enquire about our services, or subscribe to updates.
Automated technologies — as you navigate the site, standard analytics tools may collect data about your device and browsing behaviour. Cookies may be used to improve site performance and deliver a more consistent experience. You can refuse cookies by adjusting your browser settings at any time.
4. Why We Collect Your Information
We collect and use personal information for the following purposes:
- To respond to enquiries and manage correspondence with you.
- To deliver services — including consulting, advisory, and investment-related communications — to clients and counterparties who have engaged with us.
- To send updates about our writing, projects, or services that you have opted into receiving.
- To improve our site using aggregated analytics data.
- For security and compliance, including verifying identity where relevant and meeting legal obligations under Australian law.
We do not use your information for advertising, profiling, or any purpose beyond what is described here.
5. Disclosure of Your Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may disclose it only in the following limited circumstances:
- Personnel — to our team members and advisers who require the information to perform their duties.
- Professional advisers — to our legal, accounting, and other professional service providers under strict confidentiality obligations.
- Service providers — to third-party tools we use to operate this site and our business (such as hosting, analytics, or email services) under confidentiality obligations.
- Legal obligations — where required by law, to regulatory authorities, law enforcement, or courts.
- Business transfer — in connection with a restructure, merger, or transfer of our business, information may be transferred to the successor entity subject to confidentiality obligations.
Your information may be stored or processed outside Australia by third-party service providers. Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps to ensure those providers apply appropriate data protection standards.
6. Data Security and Retention
We apply reasonable physical, electronic, and administrative measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, use, or disclosure. Access is limited to those with a legitimate need.
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law — including any obligations under Australian financial services or corporate law.
7. Your Rights
Under the Australian Privacy Principles, you have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you.
- Correction of any information that is incomplete or inaccurate.
- Complain about a breach of the APPs. Complaints should be directed to us in writing using the contact details below. We take all complaints seriously and will respond promptly.
- Unsubscribe from any communications at any time using the unsubscribe link in our emails or by contacting us directly.
If you are located in the EU or UK, you may also have rights under the GDPR or UK GDPR, including the right to erasure, restriction of processing, and data portability. We will honour reasonable requests made under those frameworks.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details below.
8. Third-Party Websites
This site may contain links to third-party websites. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites and encourage you to read their policies directly.
