Welcome to The Hypnotist — where laughter is guaranteed and your personal information is treated with the respect it deserves. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect the details you provide when you get in touch with us. (Spoiler: we're in the entertainment business, not the data-selling business.)

1. Who We Are

This website, thehypnotist.com.au, is operated by The Hypnotist, also known as Gerard V.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, email us at privacy@info.thehypnotist.com.au.

2. Information We Collect

When you fill in our contact form, email us, or otherwise reach out, we may collect:

Your name
Your contact details (email, phone, organisation)
Information about your event (so we can send you a spot-on quote)
Any other information you choose to share (we've seen everything from seating plans to "please hypnotise my boss").

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information strictly to:

Respond to your enquiry and provide a quote
Send you information relevant to our shows
Facilitate a booking and performance if you decide to go ahead
Comply with legal obligations (in the unlikely event the law comes knocking)

We do not:
- Sell your information
- Share it with third parties (unless legally required — and even then we'll sigh loudly while doing it)

4. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information. While we can't promise our systems are more secure than Fort Knox, we do keep your details as safe as practically possible in a professional business environment.

5. Your Rights

You're in control of your information. You can:

Ask us what details we hold about you
Request corrections if something's out of date
Ask us to delete your data (unless we're legally obliged to keep it)

Just email privacy@info.thehypnotist.com.au with your request. We'll respond promptly (and politely, without hypnosis tricks).

6. Cookies & Tracking

Our site may use basic cookies or analytics to understand how visitors use the site and to improve it. No cookie will ever hypnotise you, but some might follow you around (digitally, not physically).

7. Changes to This Policy

From time to time, we may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in law, technology, or how many biscuits we've eaten during website updates. The latest version will always be posted right here.

8. Contact Us

For any privacy-related questions or requests, email:

✨ Bottom line: We're here to entertain, not to harvest your data. Your details are safe, sound, and only used to make your event unforgettable.
