Effective date: 27 February 2026

  1. Our privacy commitment

My Will My Way (“we”, “us”, “our”) is committed to protecting your personal information.

Our privacy framework is built on two foundations:

    1. the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as our global benchmark standard; and
    2. the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) as our primary domestic legal framework.

This means that, regardless of where you are located, we design our data practices to be consistent with the core protections of the GDPR, while also complying with the APPs in Australia.

Where there is any inconsistency between the GDPR and the APPs, we will apply the standard that provides the higher level of protection to your personal information.

  1. Who we are and what we do

My Will My Way is operated by My Law Firm (ABN 60 128 788 938), with registered postal address PO Box 1208 Fremantle WA 6959.

My Will My Way provides an online Platform that:

    1. uses an AI-powered Avatar to conduct a Will interview;
    2. collects and processes your information;
    3. generates a draft Will based on your responses; and
    4. provides execution guidance specific to your selected Australian State or Territory.

We are not a law firm for the purposes of your Will unless your matter is escalated and you separately engage a lawyer under a distinct costs agreement.

Use of the Platform is governed by our Terms and Conditions and this Privacy Policy. The Platform provides document preparation services only and does not provide legal advice unless your matter is escalated and you separately engage a lawyer.

  1. Who this policy applies to

This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the Platform, whether located in Australia or overseas.

The Platform is primarily designed for users who reside in Australia and will execute their Will in Australia, as stated in the Terms and Conditions. Users outside Australia may still access the Platform but acknowledge that additional local legal requirements may apply in their jurisdiction.

    1. Children and persons lacking capacity
  1. The Platform is not intended for use by persons under 18 or persons who lack legal capacity to make a Will.
  2. We do not knowingly collect personal information from such persons. If we become aware that we have collected information from a person who should not be using the Platform, we will take steps to delete that information or suspend the Account.
  1. What personal information we collect
    1. General collection

Because the Services involve preparing a Will, we collect personal and sensitive information that is reasonably necessary to generate your document.

    1. Identity and contact information

This may include:

  1. full name;
  2. date of birth;
  3. residential address;
  4. email address;
  5. phone number; and/or
  6. country of residence.
    1. Family and estate information

This may include:

  1. marital status;
  2. children and dependants;
  3. beneficiaries;
  4. executors and substitute executors;
  5. guardians for minor children;
  6. details of assets (for example: property, bank accounts, superannuation, investments, personal possessions); and/or
  7. liabilities where relevant to your estate plan.
    1. Sensitive personal information

Consistent with your Terms, the Platform may collect sensitive personal information, including:

  1. details about your family members and relationships;
  2. information about your assets and financial affairs;
  3. details about beneficiaries, executors and guardians; and
  4. potentially, information about health, disability, or special circumstances of beneficiaries.
    1. Consent and collection limits

You expressly consent to the collection and use of this information for the purposes of generating your Will and providing the Services.

We will not collect sensitive information for any unrelated purpose.

We collect only information that is reasonably necessary to provide the Services.

  1. How we collect your information
    1. Collection methods

We collect your personal information when you:

  1. complete the Avatar Will interview;
  2. input information into the Platform;
  3. upload documents to your Account;
  4. communicate with us via email, chat or support channels;
  5. create an Account; or
  6. interact with our website (including via cookies).
    1. Anonymous use

You may explore the Platform with limited identifiers, but generating a complete draft Will typically requires identifiable information at the final drafting stage.

  1. How we use your information
    1. Permitted uses

We use your personal information to:

  1. conduct the Will interview through the Avatar;
  2. generate your draft Will;
  3. determine whether your matter should be escalated;
  4. provide execution guidance for your selected State or Territory;
  5. deliver your draft Will in digital format;
  6. maintain your Account if you choose to store drafts;
  7. operate, secure and improve the Platform; and
  8. comply with legal obligations.
    1. What we do not do

We do not:

  1. verify the accuracy of your information; or
  2. use your personal information for marketing or sale to third parties.
  1. AI processing and data governance
    1. How AI is used

The Platform uses automated systems (including AI) to assist in generating your Will based on your responses. The system structures and formats your information according to pre-set drafting logic; it does not make binding legal decisions about your rights.

    1. AI model and data use

The AI Avatar operates on a fixed model within a controlled technical environment. It does not learn from your responses, and your data is not shared externally or used for AI training.

    1. Internal records

We maintain internal records of our data processing activities as required under applicable privacy laws, including the purposes of processing, categories of data, and security measures implemented.

    1. Your right to query automated processing

You have the right to ask us how the automated system works in general terms and to request human assistance if you have concerns about the output.

    1. Escalation criteria

Escalation decisions are based on pre-defined criteria designed to identify matters that require legal review.

  1. Lawful basis for processing (GDPR alignment)
    1. Basis for processing

Where the GDPR applies to your personal information, we rely on:

  1. your explicit consent (for sensitive personal information and Will instructions);
  2. performance of a contract (to provide the Services you requested).
    1. Withdrawing consent

You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us, subject to legal or contractual limitations. If you withdraw consent to the processing of information necessary to generate your Will, we will be unable to complete the Services. Refund eligibility is governed by the Terms and Conditions.

If you withdraw consent before your Will is generated, we will stop processing your personal information for that purpose, subject to any legal retention obligations.

  1. Cross-border data handling
    1. Overseas storage and processing

Because the Platform operates online, your personal information is stored and processed on secure cloud infrastructure that may be located outside your country of residence.

    1. Safeguards

We implement technical and organisational safeguards consistent with GDPR standards and the APPs to protect your information during these overseas transfers.

    1. Your consent to transfer

By using the Platform, you consent to overseas data transfers. If you do not consent to overseas storage or processing, you should not use the Platform.

    1. Comparable protections

Where your information is transferred overseas, we take reasonable steps to ensure comparable privacy protections are in place.

  1. Security of your information
    1. Our security measures

We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information, including encrypted data storage, restricted system access, and secure cloud infrastructure.

    1. No absolute guarantee

However, no online system is completely secure. You use the Platform at your own risk.

    1. Your security obligations

Your personal security obligations (passwords, devices, and notification of suspected breaches) are set out in clause 12 of the Terms and Conditions.

  1. Cookies and analytics

    1. No advertising cookies

  4. With your express consent.
  5. If your matter is escalated to a lawyer for review or completion, your information will be disclosed to that lawyer.
