We respect your privacy

YakTrak respects your right to privacy and is committed to safeguarding the personal information of our customers and website visitors. We adhere to the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and continuously review our practices to remain aligned with updates to the Act.

This policy outlines how we collect, use, disclose and protect your personal information, including information processed through AI tools and technologies.

Personal information” means information that identifies or reasonably identifies you, and includes sensitive information such as voice recordings, coaching session transcripts, behavioural data, and any data processed using AI services.

YakTrak is ISO 27001 accredited, demonstrating our commitment to the secure and compliant management of user and client data.

Use of AI in our services

YakTrak uses AI technology to enhance experiences and provide actionable insights. This includes:

  • Transcribing and summarising coaching conversations
  • Analysing activities for quality and behavioural trends
  • Providing AI-generated feedback based on defined models (e.g. ACDC model)

Where AI is used, YakTrak ensures transparency, fairness and accountability. AI insights are provided as a support tool and do not replace human judgment. No fully automated decisions are made that have a legal or similarly significant effect on individuals without human review.

You will be informed when AI tools are used, and where required, we obtain your consent before capturing or analysing data using AI.

We use your personal information to:

  • Deliver and improve our services
  • Provide coaching tools, reports, and insights
  • Support professional development and compliance
  • Enhance platform performance, security and user experience
  • Inform you of updates, features, or events

We may also use de-identified or aggregated data for product development, and platform research. De-identified data is not considered personal information under the Privacy Act.

Disclosure of personal information

We may disclose your personal information:

  • To employees, contractors or service providers involved in delivering YakTrak services
  • To AI or cloud service providers (e.g. transcription, data hosting), with appropriate safeguards in place
  • To third parties where you have consented or where legally required (e.g. under a court order or regulator request)
  • During a business restructure, acquisition or sale, with confidentiality obligations

If personal information is transferred overseas, YakTrak ensures equivalent privacy protections are applied in accordance with Australian law.

Security of personal information

YakTrak takes reasonable steps to protect personal information from loss, misuse, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure. These include encryption, access controls, monitoring, and staff training.

While we strive to protect your data, internet transmission is inherently insecure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
