Privacy Policy

How Nine High Studios collects, uses, and protects your personal information.

Last updated: 7 February 2026

Nine High Studios ABN (trading as 9 High Studios, "we", "us", "our") operates the website 9highstudios.com. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights in relation to that information.

1. Information We Collect

When you submit our contact form, we may collect the following personal information:

  • Email address
  • Telegram handle (username or number)
  • WhatsApp number
  • Project description (free-text message you provide)

You are not required to provide all of these fields. We ask that you provide at least one contact method so we can respond to your enquiry.

In addition, the form handling service we use (Formsubmit.co) may automatically collect technical data such as your IP address and submission timestamp as part of the form delivery process.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information you provide solely for the following purposes:

  • To respond to your enquiry or request for information
  • To provide project quotes, proposals, or consultations
  • To follow up on your expressed interest in our services
  • To communicate with you via your preferred contact method

We do not use your information for marketing purposes unless you have explicitly opted in to receive marketing communications from us.

3. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party service to process form submissions:

  • Formsubmit.co — a form-to-email service that forwards your form submission to our inbox at hello@9highstudios.com. Formsubmit.co processes your data only for the purpose of delivering the form submission. You can review their privacy practices at formsubmit.co.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any other third parties.

4. Data Storage

Your form submissions are delivered directly to our email inbox (hello@9highstudios.com). We do not store your information in a database, CRM, or any other structured data system beyond our email provider.

Our email is hosted with standard email security measures including encryption in transit (TLS).

5. Data Retention

We retain your contact form submissions in our email inbox for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected — typically for the duration of any active enquiry or project discussion.

If you request deletion of your data, we will remove all associated emails and records within 30 days of your request.

6. Cookies and Tracking

Our website does not currently use cookies, tracking pixels, or analytics services. We do not track your browsing behaviour on our site.

If we add analytics or other cookie-based services in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly, and you will be informed before any tracking is enabled.

7. Your Rights

Under the Australian Privacy Principles and applicable privacy legislation, you have the right to:

  • Access — request a copy of the personal information we hold about you
  • Correction — request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete information
  • Deletion — request that we delete your personal information from our records
  • Complaint — lodge a complaint if you believe your privacy has been breached

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at hello@9highstudios.com. We will respond to your request within 30 days.

If you are not satisfied with our response, you may lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au.

8. Australian Privacy Principles Compliance

We are committed to complying with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) as set out in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). These principles regulate how organisations collect, use, disclose, store, and provide access to personal information.

In particular, we ensure that:

  • We only collect personal information that is reasonably necessary for our functions (APP 3)
  • We collect personal information directly from you, with your knowledge and consent (APP 5)
  • We use and disclose personal information only for the purpose for which it was collected (APP 6)
  • We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, and loss (APP 11)
  • We provide you with access to your personal information upon request (APP 12)
  • We correct personal information upon request where it is inaccurate, out of date, or incomplete (APP 13)

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.

We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we handle your information.
