Rock The Boat Film Festival ("we", "us", "our") — i-video holdings Pty Ltd ATF Braovich Family Trust TA Rock The Boat Film Festival — respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This policy explains how we collect, use, store and disclose your information when you visit our website, enter the festival, or contact us. We handle personal information in line with the Australian Privacy Principles under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
We only collect information you choose to give us, or that helps us run the festival:
We use your information to respond to enquiries, manage film submissions and judging, send festival updates you've asked for, run and promote festival events, and improve our website. We do not use your information for any unrelated purpose without your consent.
We never sell your personal information. We only share it where necessary to run the festival — for example with trusted service providers such as FilmFreeway (submissions), our email/newsletter provider, and website analytics tools. These providers handle your data under their own privacy policies. We may also disclose information if required by law.
Our website may use cookies and similar tools to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time; some features may then work differently.
Our festival events may be photographed or filmed for promotional use across our website and social media. If you attend and would prefer not to be featured, please let a staff member know on the night or contact us afterwards and we'll do our best to accommodate your request.
We take reasonable steps to keep your information secure and to hold it only for as long as we need it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work to protect your data against loss, misuse and unauthorised access.
You can ask us to access, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you, and you can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time using the link in any email or by contacting us. We'll respond to reasonable requests promptly.
Our site links to external sites such as FilmFreeway, social media and sponsors. We aren't responsible for their privacy practices — please review their policies before sharing information with them.
We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always appear on this page with its revision date.
For any privacy questions or requests, please reach us through our contact page, or by post at PO Box 7192, Safety Bay WA 6169.
We acknowledge the Whadjuk people of the Noongar nation, the traditional custodians of the land on which our office stands. We recognise their continuing connection to land, waters, and community. We pay our respects to their cultures, and to Elders past, present, and emerging. We extend this respect to all Indigenous language groups.
