Plain-English summary

Callsheet Rates is a free rate calculator. We do not require an account. The calculator itself stores no personal information — quotes live in your browser URL only.

The only personal information we store is the email address you voluntarily give us to join our waitlist. We only use it to tell you when the rest of the Callsheet platform launches and when MEAA or CGA publishes a new rate card. We do not sell it, rent it, or share it with anyone.

What we collect

• Email address — only if you submit the waitlist form.
• Source page — which calculator drove the signup (e.g. rates/voiceover). Helps us prioritise which tools to improve.
• Timestamp of signup.
• IP address and browser user agent — used only for spam / abuse detection. Never exposed to other users. Dropped 90 days after signup unless a signup is flagged as abusive.
• Consent flag — the explicit opt-in you ticked at signup, as required by the Spam Act 2003 (AU).

What we don't collect

• The content of any quote you generate. Your rate cards, day rates, shoot times and cost reports live in the URL of your browser. They never touch our server.
• Tracking cookies, analytics cookies, or third-party pixels.
• Your name, phone, company, address, or any financial data.

How we use your email

Exactly two things, both explicitly consented to at signup:

1. Notify you when MEAA or CGA publishes a new rate card so the calculator defaults stay current.
2. Notify you when the full Callsheet platform (beyond the rate calculator) launches.

That's it. We will not send you weekly newsletters, promotional content, or third-party offers.

How to unsubscribe or delete your data

Every email we send carries a one-click unsubscribe link (required by the Spam Act 2003). Click it and your row is flagged as unsubscribed — we stop sending immediately.

To request permanent deletion of your row (not just unsubscribe), email admin@callsheet.com.au from the address you signed up with and we'll remove it within 7 days.

Where your data lives

Waitlist signups are stored in a Postgres database hosted in Australia (Neon, Sydney region). Traffic is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest.

Legal basis

We collect and process your email on the legal basis of your explicit consent (Privacy Act 1988 and GDPR Art. 6 §1(a)). You can withdraw consent at any time via the unsubscribe mechanism above.

Contact

Callsheet is operated out of Australia. For any privacy question or complaint, email admin@callsheet.com.au. You can also lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au.
