Who we are

SmartLife AU is an Australian sole trader business with a registered ABN and ASIC-registered business name, based in Australia.

We build a suite of AI-powered consumer web applications designed for Australian users. This Privacy Policy applies to the SmartLife AU website (smartlifeau.com.au) and all products operated under the SmartLife AU brand.

We are bound by the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained in that Act.

We do not require account creation for any of our products. We do not collect payment information — all our products are currently free to use.


Section 04

How submitted content is handled

Key principle: Content you submit to our products is processed transiently and is not stored by SmartLife AU after your request is complete.

When you use an AI-powered feature in any of our products, your input is:

For products involving image or screenshot uploads (TrustSmart AI), images are processed entirely in memory and are never written to disk or retained in any database.


Section 05

Third-party services — Anthropic API

Our AI-powered products use the Anthropic Claude API. When you use an AI feature, your submitted content is sent to Anthropic's servers for processing.

Anthropic is a US-based AI safety company. Your submitted content is subject to Anthropic's privacy policy, available at anthropic.com/legal/privacy. As of the date of this policy, Anthropic does not use API-submitted content to train their models by default.

We also use the following services across our products:


Section 06

How we use your information

We use information we collect only for these purposes:

We do not use submitted content to train AI models. We do not sell, rent, or share personal information with third parties for marketing or commercial purposes.


Section 07

Storage and security

Submitted content across all products is not stored by SmartLife AU. It is processed transiently and discarded after each request.

Waitlist or contact form submissions (name and email) are stored in Netlify Forms and retained only as long as needed for operational purposes. You may request deletion at any time.

All data is transmitted using HTTPS encryption. Our serverless infrastructure ensures API keys are never exposed to end-user browsers.

Anonymised analytics data is stored by Google in accordance with Google's data processing terms.


Section 08

Cookies and analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) across our products to collect anonymised usage data. GA4 may set first-party cookies for session tracking. IP addresses are anonymised.

We do not use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or any third-party marketing trackers on any SmartLife AU product or website.

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
