Who we are

Askaround AI is run by Townsville Advertising, Suite 17/45-49 Bundock St, Belgian Gardens QLD 4810, ABN 63 976 640 863. Phone 0415 298 541.

What we collect

When you send a form on this site we collect what you type into it: usually your name, mobile, email, business name, ABN and notes. The business check uses the business name, suburb and details you enter, and the email address you give us to send the report. We don’t ask for anything a quote or a listing doesn’t need.

Why

To answer your request: call you about a quote, set up what you asked for, or act on a listing report. We don’t send marketing email unless you ask for it, and we don’t sell or share your details.

Where it is stored

The site and its forms are hosted by Netlify, which stores form submissions on servers in the United States. Our team reads them there.

If you connect your Google Business Profile (opening soon)

When you choose “Continue with Google”, Google asks you to let Askaround AI manage the Business Profiles your Google account manages. With that permission we:

  • Read the profile you pick: name, address, phone, categories, hours, services, photos, reviews, the edits Google suggests, and the monthly performance figures Google records (calls, website clicks, direction requests and the searches that found you).
  • Change the profile only when you press Approve on a specific change in your dashboard. Every change is logged there with the date.

We use this only to verify that you own the business, show your listing and report, and make the changes you approve. We don’t sell it, share it with anyone else, use it for advertising, or use it to rank you against other businesses. Our team reads it only when you ask for help or when we need to for security or the law.

Askaround AI’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

You can disconnect at any time in your dashboard, or by removing Askaround AI at myaccount.google.com/connections. We stop reading your profile straight away and delete what we pulled from it within 30 days. The access key Google gives us is stored encrypted and is never shown in your browser.

Cookies and tracking

This site sets no tracking cookies and runs no analytics or advertising tags. Fonts are served from this site, not a third party. If that changes, this page will say so before it happens.

Your details

You can ask what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, by calling 0415 298 541 or writing to Suite 17/45-49 Bundock St, Belgian Gardens QLD 4810. If you’re unhappy with how we handled it you can complain to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (oaic.gov.au).
