Information we collect

We may collect information that you provide when you:
Completing The Brief Form; making an artwork, artist or project enquiry; contacting us by email; requesting sourcing, advisory or commissioning services, or entering into a commercial relationship with us, may:
Include information with your name, email address, telephone number, company or studio, project details, location, programme, budget and any images, plans or documents you choose to provide.
Our website and service providers may also collect limited technical information, such as your IP address, browser, device type and activity on the website, for security, functionality and performance purposes.
How we use your information
We use personal information to:
Respond to enquiries, understand and develop your project brief, source and present suitable artists and artworks, prepare proposals, quotations and project documentation, coordinate commissions, framing, freight, delivery and placement, administer our business and maintain appropriate records, protect the security and proper operation of our website, and meet our legal, regulatory and financial obligations.
We will only send marketing communications where you have requested them or where otherwise permitted by law. You may opt out at any time.
Our legal bases
Depending on the circumstances, we process personal information because:
It is necessary to respond to your request or take steps towards a contract, it is necessary to perform a contract with you, we have a legitimate business interest in managing enquiries, projects and professional relationships, you have provided consent, or, we must comply with a legal obligation.
Sharing information
We may share relevant information with trusted organisations involved in delivering our services, including:
Aboriginal artists, Art Centres, studios and authorised representatives; professional framers, art handlers, freight providers, insurers and customs agents; website, email, cloud-storage and business-system providers; professional advisers, including accountants and legal advisers; and public authorities where disclosure is legally required.
We share only the information reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose. We do not sell personal information.
International transfers
Studio Australis works across Australia, the United Kingdom and Europe. Your information may therefore be processed outside the country in which it was collected.
Where required, we use appropriate contractual, organisational or legal safeguards to protect personal information transferred internationally.
How long we retain information
We retain enquiry and project information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.
General enquiries are normally retained for up to 24 months after our last substantive contact. Records relating to completed transactions, contracts and financial matters may be retained for up to six years, or longer where required by law.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
Request access to your personal information; ask us to correct inaccurate information; request deletion or restriction of your information; object to certain uses of your information; withdraw consent where processing relies on consent; and, request transfer of information you provided to us.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us.
You may also raise a concern with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office or the relevant data-protection authority in your country.
Cookies
Our website may use essential cookies required for security and functionality. Any non-essential analytics or marketing cookies should only be used in accordance with applicable consent requirements.
Your browser may allow you to restrict or delete cookies, although doing so may affect parts of the website.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information. However, no internet transmission or electronic-storage system can be guaranteed as completely secure.

We may update this policy to reflect changes to our services, website or legal obligations. The current version will always be published on this page.

Website purpose
This website provides information about Studio Australis, contemporary Aboriginal artists, representative artworks and our art-sourcing and project-advisory services.
The artists and works shown are presented as examples of the breadth of practices we may source. Their inclusion does not necessarily mean that an artist is exclusively represented by Studio Australis or that a particular artwork is currently available.

Any acquisition, commission or professional service will be subject to availability, confirmed provenance, agreed pricing and separate written terms provided through a proposal, quotation, invoice or agreement.
Artwork information
We take reasonable care to present artwork details accurately. However:
Dimensions may be approximate; colours and surface details may vary because of photography, lighting and screen settings; mock-ups are visual guides only and may not represent exact scale, colour or placement; and availability, pricing, framing and lead times remain subject to confirmation.
