Privacy

Calculator information

The date and checklist tools operate in your browser. QLD Renters does not ask you to upload a notice or save the information you enter in these tools.

Community accounts

The community software stores the username and email address you provide, a securely generated password hash, account role and status, karma, contribution-approval count and account timestamps when you register. Your email address and password hash are never displayed publicly. Administrators can pause new registrations when necessary.

An essential, HTTP-only session cookie keeps an account signed in and protects actions with a session token. The application also creates a one-way keyed hash from a request source for rate limiting; it does not store the raw address in the community database. GoDaddy and other infrastructure providers may still process ordinary server and security logs.

Posts, comments, votes and reports

Community posts and comments are intended to be public after moderation. Votes are stored against the voting account to enforce one vote per item. Reports, report details and moderator actions are restricted to authorised moderators and administrators. First contributions may remain privately visible to their author and moderators until approved.

Do not submit names, property addresses, contact details, identity documents, signatures, reference numbers or complete tenancy records. Content may be retained after removal where reasonably needed for moderation, safety, dispute handling or legal compliance. To ask about access, correction or deletion of account information, use the contact page.

Advertising and third parties

Selected editorial content pages load Google AdSense using publisher ca-pub-9015695282527757. Google may process requests, device or browser information and advertising-related identifiers under its policies and visitor choices. The AdSense loader is not loaded on the forum, forms, tools, search, policy or error pages. Google's partner-services information explains how Google may use data when its services appear on publisher sites.

Where consent is required, visitors may be shown a Google-certified consent message with choices about personalised advertising and related data use. Those choices can be revisited through the privacy controls made available with that message.

Email and security

If you contact QLD Renters, the message and reply address will be used to investigate and answer the enquiry. Do not email identity documents, complete tenancy files or unredacted material. Reasonable technical and access controls are used, but no online service can promise absolute security.

Changes to this notice

If another advertising network, analytics service, newsletter or account provider is introduced, this page will be updated before launch with the provider, purpose, relevant identifiers, retention approach and available visitor choices.
