GDPR Compliance

Last Updated: September 2, 2026

Our Commitment to Data Protection

Prairie-ibex is committed to protecting your personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Australian privacy laws including the Privacy Act 1988. This page outlines how we comply with these regulations and your rights under them.

Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data only when we have a legal basis to do so. Our legal bases include:

Consent

When you provide explicit consent for us to process your personal data for specific purposes, such as receiving marketing communications or participating in surveys.

Contractual Necessity

When processing is necessary to fulfill a contract with you or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract, such as providing requested services.

Legitimate Interests

When processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, provided these interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms. This includes website analytics, fraud prevention, and service improvement.

Legal Obligations

When we must process your data to comply with legal or regulatory requirements.

Your GDPR Rights

Under GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right of Access

You have the right to request confirmation of whether we process your personal data and to obtain a copy of that data along with information about how we use it.

Right to Rectification

You can request that we correct inaccurate personal data or complete incomplete data we hold about you.

Right to Erasure

In certain circumstances, you have the right to request deletion of your personal data. This right applies when the data is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected, you withdraw consent, or the processing is unlawful.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You can request that we limit how we use your data in specific situations, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data or object to processing based on legitimate interests.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive personal data you provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to transmit that data to another controller.

Right to Object

You can object to processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes. We will cease processing unless we have compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.

Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making

You have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects on you.
