Our goal at Integrated Workforce Solutions Pty Ltd (“iWS”) is to help you and your team do the best work of your lives. To do this, we need to keep our products and services running smoothly, quickly, and without distraction. For this to happen, we need help from you, our users, to not misuse or abuse our products and services.
You’ll see the word “services” a lot throughout this page. That refers to all websites owned or operated by iWS, such as https://www.iwsaustralia.com.au/ or and any related websites, sub-domains and pages.

- Deciphering any transmissions to or from the servers running the services,
