Privacy Policy
Effective Date: October 21, 2026 • Compliance: Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) & Australian Privacy Principles (APPs)
1. Commitment to the Australian Privacy Principles
AusObelisk Vault ("we", "us", "our"), operating at ausobelisk-vault.com from Level 22, 120 Spencer Street, Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia, manages personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the 13 Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). This policy explains what minimal data we process, why we collect it, and how you can exercise your statutory privacy rights.
2. Information We Collect
Because AusObelisk Vault operates as a zero-registration editorial showcase, we collect information only in two limited contexts:
- Voluntary Editorial Inquiries: When you submit a message via our Contact form or email editorial@ausobelisk-vault.com, we collect your name or developer alias, email address, inquiry category, and message content solely to respond to your request.
- Automated Technical Telemetry: When your browser requests pages from our server, standard non-identifying HTTP headers (such as browser user-agent string, anonymized IP subnet, viewport resolution, and page load latency) are processed to maintain server security and optimize WebGL asset delivery.
3. Purpose of Processing and Legal Basis
Under APP 3 and APP 6, we only collect and use information where reasonably necessary for our editorial operations:
- Responding to developer submissions, broken link reports, or technical feedback;
- Preserving your Cookie Consent Mode choices inside your browser's local storage;
- Protecting our infrastructure against automated abuse or malicious traffic.
We never sell, rent, trade, or license visitor email addresses or browsing metadata to commercial data brokers or advertising networks.
4. External Game Publishers and Outbound Links
Our catalog contains outbound links directing users to external Free-to-Play browser games hosted by independent publishers (such as Gameforge, GTArcade, InnoGames, Bigpoint, and CrazyGames). Once you click "Play Now" and leave ausobelisk-vault.com, any data you provide on the external publisher's domain is governed strictly by that publisher's privacy notice.
5. Data Storage, Security, and Retention
In accordance with APP 11, we implement TLS/HTTPS encryption, strict server access controls, and firewall rules to safeguard correspondence sent to our editorial desk. Contact inquiries are retained for a maximum of 12 months to resolve follow-up questions, after which they are permanently purged.
6. Access, Correction, and Complaints (APP 12 & APP 13)
You have the right to request access to any personal correspondence we hold about you, request corrections, or ask for immediate deletion. To submit a privacy request or lodge a complaint regarding APP compliance, please contact our Privacy Officer:
