The rules for using this website, its content and its free tools.

What are terms of use?

Terms of use set the rules for using a website: what its content is for, what visitors can and cannot do with it, and the legal basis of the visit. CyberNinja's terms apply to everyone who browses cyberninja.au or uses its free self-assessment tools.

Version 1.0, October 2026

CyberNinja Consulting Pty Ltd (ABN 51 673 449 860) (“CyberNinja”, “we”, “us”)

These terms apply to your use of cyberninja.au and any pages, tools and content we publish on it (the “website”). By using the website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the website.

1. General information only

1.1 The content on the website includes articles, guides, templates, checklists and the knowledge base. It is general information about cybersecurity, compliance and related topics. It is not professional, legal or compliance advice for your situation, and you should not rely on it as if it were.

1.2 Frameworks and regulations change. We try to keep our content accurate and up to date, but we do not promise that it is complete, current or suitable for your purposes.

1.3 Using the website does not create a client relationship with CyberNinja. We only provide services under an accepted proposal and our Terms of Engagement.

2. Free tools and assessments

2.1 We may offer free tools, such as our Cybersecurity Gap Assessment. Results are based only on the answers you give. They are indicative, and they are not:

  • an audit, certification or attestation
  • a statement that you comply with any framework, law or contract
  • a substitute for an assessment by a qualified professional.

2.2 Free tools are provided “as is”. We may change or withdraw them at any time.

2.3 Our Gap Assessment runs in your browser, and your answers are only sent to us if you ask for a report by email. Please do not enter passwords, personal information about others or other sensitive details into any tool.
