Last updated: 28 August 2026Your privacy matters.
Jonathan Boyen respects your privacy and aims to be transparent about how information may be handled through this website.
This website is primarily a personal and professional portfolio containing information about my education, career, community involvement, projects, interests and professional development.
This policy explains the types of personal information that may be collected through interactions with the website and how that information may be handled.
I do not intend to collect personal information unless there is a reason for doing so, such as responding to an enquiry, providing a requested service or managing a website feature.
What information may be collected?
Depending on how you interact with the website, the following types of information may be collected or provided voluntarily:
- Your name or other identifying information that you choose to provide.
- Contact details such as an email address.
- Information contained in messages or enquiries that you voluntarily send.
- Information provided when subscribing to website content or updates, where that feature is available.
- Technical information associated with your visit, such as browser type, device information, approximate location and website usage information, where such information is collected by website or analytics services.
You should avoid submitting sensitive personal information through this website unless it is specifically requested and there is an appropriate reason for providing it.
How information is collected.
How information may be used.
Personal information may be used for purposes including:
- Responding to enquiries or messages.
- Providing information or services you have requested.
- Managing website subscriptions where applicable.
- Maintaining website functionality and security.
- Understanding website usage and improving the website, where analytics tools are used.
- Managing technical issues or preventing misuse of the website.
- Meeting applicable legal or regulatory obligations.
Personal information will not intentionally be used for unrelated purposes without an appropriate basis for doing so.
When information may be shared.
Personal information will not be sold or intentionally provided to unrelated third parties for their own marketing purposes.
Information may be disclosed to service providers where reasonably necessary to operate, maintain, secure or improve the website.
This may include website hosting, website management, email or subscription services, security services, analytics providers, AI technology providers and other technical providers used by the website.
Information may also be disclosed where required or authorised by Australian law, or where reasonably necessary to address security, fraud or other unlawful activity.
Third-party services.
This website may use third-party services to provide hosting, website functionality, subscriptions, security, analytics, artificial intelligence or other technical services.
Where a third-party service processes personal information, that provider may handle the information under its own privacy policy and terms.
Third-party websites linked from this website are not controlled by Jonathan Boyen. You should review the privacy policy of an external website before providing personal information to it.
Artificial intelligence and automated technologies.
This website may use artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, automated systems or related technologies from time to time.
These technologies may be used to provide website functionality, analyse information, generate content, assist with interactions, provide recommendations or perform other automated functions.
Information submitted to AI features
Where you voluntarily submit information to an AI-powered feature, that information may be processed by the technology or third-party service required to provide that functionality.
Depending on the technology being used, information may be processed or stored by a third-party provider in accordance with that provider’s own privacy practices and terms.
Information you should not submit
You should not knowingly submit information to an AI-powered feature that you do not wish to have processed by an AI or third-party technology service.
- Passwords or authentication credentials.
- Payment or banking information.
- Highly sensitive personal information.
- Confidential information belonging to another person or organisation without appropriate authority.
AI-generated information
AI-powered functionality may process information automatically and may produce results that are incomplete, inaccurate or inappropriate in some circumstances.
AI-generated outputs should therefore not be assumed to be accurate or authoritative without independent verification.
Where practical, the website will only use information submitted to an AI-powered feature for the purpose reasonably associated with providing that feature or functionality.
Cookies and technical information.
The website or services used to operate the website may use cookies, pixels, log files or similar technologies.
These technologies may be used for purposes such as website functionality, security, remembering preferences, understanding website traffic or improving the website.
You can generally manage or restrict cookies through your web browser. Restricting cookies may affect the functionality of some website features.
Protecting your information.
Reasonable steps are taken to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
If you believe that information submitted through this website has been compromised, please contact me as soon as possible.
How long information is kept.
Personal information will generally only be retained for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to manage an ongoing relationship, to resolve an issue, or where retention is required or authorised by law.
When information is no longer reasonably required, steps may be taken to securely delete, destroy or de-identify it where appropriate.
Access and correction.
If you believe that I hold personal information about you, you may contact me to request access to that information or ask for it to be corrected if it is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date.
Requests should include enough information to identify you and explain what information you are seeking to access or correct.
Requests will be considered within a reasonable period and handled in accordance with applicable privacy requirements.
Information outside Australia.
Some website, hosting, email, subscription, analytics, AI or other technology providers may operate or store information outside Australia.
As a result, personal information submitted through the website may potentially be processed or stored overseas depending on the services being used at the time.
The locations and providers used by the website may change as website services are updated.
Children and young people.
This website is not specifically directed towards children and is not intended to collect personal information from children.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a child has provided personal information through the website without appropriate permission, please contact me so the matter can be considered.
Privacy concerns and complaints.
If you believe that your personal information has been handled in a way that does not comply with this Privacy Policy or applicable privacy requirements, you are encouraged to contact me first so that the concern can be reviewed and addressed.
Please provide details of the concern and any relevant information that may help with the investigation.
If you are not satisfied with the response, you may be able to contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) or another relevant privacy regulator, depending on the circumstances.
Changes to this policy.
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes to the website, the services used by the website, privacy practices or applicable requirements.
The date shown at the beginning of this policy indicates when it was most recently updated.
