Data & Compliance

Shift is committed to maintaining the highest standards of data protection and regulatory compliance.

Privacy Act & Australian Privacy Principles

We fully comply with the Privacy Act 1988 and the 13 Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). Our practices include:

• Open and transparent management of personal information
• Anonymity and pseudonymity options where practicable
• Collecting only necessary information with your consent
• Ensuring data quality and security
• Providing access and correction rights upon request

Website Compliance

• Accessibility: We build websites that meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards for digital accessibility
• SEO: All sites are developed with search engine optimisation best practices
• Performance: Sites are optimized for fast load times and Core Web Vitals
• Security: HTTPS, secure forms, and data protection built into every build

Supporting Client Compliance

For clients requiring specific data compliance (e.g., GDPR for EU customers, industry-specific regulations), we can implement additional measures including cookie consent banners, data processing agreements, and privacy-focused analytics.
