Who we are

Forged Carbon Pty Ltd ("Forged Carbon", "we", "us") builds and delivers certified modular homes and, from 2026, sources and supplies building materials, across Queensland. This policy applies to forgedcarbon.com.au and covers how we handle personal information under the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

Information we collect

Information you give us directly — when you submit an enquiry, walkthrough booking, or materials quote request through our forms, we collect your name, phone number, email address, suburb/town, and anything you write in the message field.

Information collected automatically — when you browse our site, we (and the third-party services listed below) automatically collect information such as pages viewed, time on site, approximate location (derived from IP address), device and browser type, and the site that referred you to us.

How we use it

We use personal information to:

  • — Respond to your enquiry, booking or quote request
  • — Provide quotes and arrange delivery, walkthroughs or materials supply
  • — Understand how visitors use our site, so we can improve it
  • — Show you relevant advertising on other sites and platforms (remarketing), including — where you have interacted with our building-materials content — on behalf of an affiliated kitchen and building-materials business under common ownership

Cookies and tracking technologies

Our site uses cookies and similar technologies from the third-party services listed below. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, and opt out of personalised Google advertising at adssettings.google.com. Disabling cookies may affect how some parts of the site function.

Third parties we share information with

We use the following third-party services, each of which processes some visitor information on our behalf or under their own privacy terms:

  • — Google Analytics (GA4) — site usage analytics
  • — Google Ads — conversion tracking and remarketing, including building audiences that may be used by an affiliated kitchen and building-materials business to show you relevant ads elsewhere
  • — Web3Forms — processes and delivers the contact, walkthrough and materials-quote forms to our inbox
  • — hCaptcha — spam and bot prevention on our forms
  • — Cloudflare — website security and aggregate traffic analytics

We do not sell personal information. Where we share information with the affiliated business referred to above, it is limited to advertising-audience data (such as which pages you viewed) rather than your name, phone number or email address, unless you have separately provided those details directly to that business.

Data retention

We retain enquiry information for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to you and, where you become a customer, to provide our services and meet our legal obligations. Analytics and advertising data is retained according to each third-party service's own retention settings, which we configure where possible to reasonable periods rather than indefinite storage.

Your rights

You can ask us what personal information we hold about you, request a correction, or ask us to delete information you've submitted through our forms, by contacting us using the details below. You can opt out of personalised advertising at any time via Google Ads Settings or your browser/device's ad preferences.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time as our services or the third-party tools we use change. The date at the top of this page reflects the last update.
