Privacy Policy
Effective date: 13 June 2026
Next review date: 13 June 2027
The Brave Mind Project Pty Ltd, referred to in this policy as BMP, is committed to handling personal information responsibly.
This policy explains how BMP and the business operations covered by this policy collect, use, store, disclose and manage personal information.
BMP seeks to manage personal information consistently with applicable Australian privacy requirements, including the Australian Privacy Principles under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), where those requirements apply.
1. Our commitment to privacy
This policy explains how BMP and the business operations covered by this policy collect, use, store, disclose and manage personal information, and how BMP seeks to manage that information responsibly and consistently with applicable Australian privacy requirements.
2. Business operations covered by this policy
This policy applies to:
- The Brave Mind Project Pty Ltd, including group operations, partnerships, advocacy, product development and general enquiries.
- FIFO Mind Connect, including training, licensing, implementation support and business enquiries.
- Future BMP-operated training, education and business products where a separate privacy policy has not been published.
Man Counsellor maintains a separate service-specific privacy policy because its counselling, coaching and wellbeing services may involve additional handling of sensitive and health information.
Where a person accesses a Man Counsellor service, the Man Counsellor privacy policy and applicable service documentation will also apply.
3. Information we may collect
Depending on how a person interacts with BMP or a covered business operation, we may collect:
- Name, role, organisation and contact details.
- Information submitted through enquiry forms, email, phone calls, meetings or other communications.
- Business information relevant to a proposal, licence, partnership, service arrangement or implementation discussion.
- Training registration, participation, completion or certification information where applicable.
- Billing, contract and administrative information where applicable.
- Marketing preferences and communication history.
- Technical information such as an IP address, browser type, device information and session metadata where collected through websites or connected platforms.
FIFO Mind Connect and BMP corporate websites are not intended to collect clinical information through general enquiry forms.
People should avoid submitting sensitive personal information or health information through a general enquiry form unless it is necessary for the enquiry.
4. How information is collected
Information may be collected:
- When a person submits an enquiry, requests information or communicates with us.
- When an organisation discusses, purchases or implements a product or service.
- When a learner registers for or completes training, where learner-level records are required.
- When a person uses a BMP website, online form, email link or connected digital platform.
- From an authorised third party where collection is lawful and reasonably necessary.
5. Why we collect and use information
We may collect and use information to:
- Respond to enquiries and communicate with stakeholders.
- Prepare proposals, agreements and implementation arrangements.
- Deliver and administer training, resources, licences and support.

- Manage partnerships and organisational relationships.
- Improve products, websites and service delivery through proportionate and privacy-conscious analysis.
- Manage safety, quality, complaints, legal obligations and business operations.
- Send relevant updates or marketing communications where permitted, with a practical option to opt out.
6. Disclosure and service providers
BMP does not sell, rent or trade personal information.
We may disclose information where reasonably necessary, authorised or required by law, including to service providers that support:

7. Overseas processing
Some technology service providers may store or process information in Australia or overseas.
BMP takes reasonable steps appropriate to the circumstances when selecting and using service providers.
Third-party platforms may have their own privacy practices and privacy policies.
8. Storage, security and retention
BMP uses reasonable safeguards appropriate to the circumstances to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
Access is restricted to authorised people who require the information for their role.
Information is retained and disposed of in accordance with applicable legal, contractual and operational requirements.
No method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
9. Website analytics, cookies and external links
BMP websites may use analytics, cookies or similar technologies to understand website use, maintain functionality and improve website performance.
A user may be able to manage cookies through their browser settings, although disabling some cookies may affect website functionality.
Websites and services operated by third parties have their own privacy practices. BMP is not responsible for the privacy practices of an external website merely because a link to that website appears on this site.
10. AI-supported and digital tools
BMP may use digital or AI-supported tools for limited administrative, operational, drafting or service-improvement purposes.
Identifying client information, sensitive personal information and confidential case material will not be intentionally entered into generative AI tools unless an approved process, suitable safeguards and any required consent are in place.
11. Marketing communications
BMP may send relevant business updates or marketing communications where permitted.
A recipient may opt out by using the unsubscribe function in an email or by contacting BMP.
Administrative, contractual or service-related communications may still be sent where necessary.
12. Access, correction and privacy concerns
A person may request access to personal information held about them, ask for inaccurate information to be corrected or raise a privacy concern.
BMP may need to verify identity before releasing or changing information and may apply lawful exceptions where relevant.
Privacy enquiries and requests may be directed to:
