Privacy Policy

Last updated: 28 June 2026

At Langdon Career Counselling (langdoncc.com.au), we are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information with care, discretion, and respect. The nature of career counselling means that the conversations we have, and the information you share, are often personal and sometimes sensitive. We take that trust seriously.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal information, and outlines your rights in relation to that information. It applies to all personal information collected through this website and through the provision of career counselling services.

1. Who We Are

Langdon Career Counselling is a registered business name of Kite Media Pty Ltd (ABN: 71 091 882 067), operating at langdoncc.com.au. All personal information collected through this website and through the provision of services is held by Kite Media Pty Ltd.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 18.

Sensitive information — such as health information, personal history, or other matters disclosed in the course of counselling — is treated with the highest level of confidentiality and is not used for any purpose other than providing career counselling services to you.

4. Confidentiality of Counselling Sessions

Everything you share in your sessions is treated as strictly confidential. Notes and materials from your sessions are stored securely and are not disclosed to third parties except in the following limited circumstances:

•        Where you have given us your explicit consent to do so

•        Where we are required to disclose information by law or court order

•        Where disclosure is necessary to prevent a serious and imminent risk of harm to you or another person

Client files are retained securely for a minimum of seven years in accordance with professional practice guidelines, after which they are destroyed or de-identified.

5. Storage and Security of Your Information

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from misuse, interference, loss, and unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure. Your information may be held using the following trusted platforms:

•        Website hosting: Squarespace (squarespace.com)

•        Communication: email and standard office tools

•        Session notes and documents: stored in password-protected systems

Please be aware that no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. While we take all reasonable precautions, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in serious harm to you, we will notify you and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) as required by the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme.

6. Overseas Disclosure

Some of the third-party platforms we use (including Squarespace, Calendly, and Google Meet) may store or process data on servers located outside Australia, including in the United States. Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps to ensure that these providers maintain appropriate privacy and security standards consistent with Australian privacy law.
