5. Data Storage and International Transfers

QuoteBolt stores data using Supabase, which may store data in Australia or overseas (including the United States). By using QuoteBolt, you consent to your information being transferred to and stored in these locations.

Where data is transferred overseas, we take reasonable steps to ensure it receives a similar level of protection as required under Australian law.

6. Cookies

QuoteBolt uses cookies and similar browser storage (including localStorage) to:

  • Maintain your login session
  • Remember your preferences within the app

We do not use cookies for advertising or cross-site tracking. You can clear cookies and local storage via your browser settings, though this may log you out of the app.

7. Your Rights

Under the Australian Privacy Principles, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate or out-of-date information
  • Delete your account and associated data
  • Complain about how we handle your information

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the email address below. We will respond within 30 days.

If you are unsatisfied with our response, you may lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).

8. Data Retention

We retain your account data and quotes for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or compliance purposes.

9. Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your information from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse — including encrypted storage, secure connections (HTTPS), and access controls. However, no internet service is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes via email or an in-app notice. Continued use of the service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
