1. Who We Are

StudentOla Pty Ltd operates a platform that lists verified student accommodation and graduate/part-time job opportunities across Australia. StudentOla is a listings and matching platform — we are not a landlord, letting agent, or employer. Accommodation is provided by independent housing providers, and jobs are listed by independent employers; StudentOla facilitates the connection between students and these third parties.

2. Eligibility

Our services are intended for current or prospective students at recognised Australian institutions, and for graduates seeking entry-level or graduate-track roles. By creating an account, you confirm the information you provide is accurate and that you have the legal right to use the platform in your jurisdiction.

3. Accommodation Listings

• We take reasonable steps to verify listings (photos, pricing, and provider details) before they go live, but availability, final pricing, and lease terms are set and confirmed by the accommodation provider, not StudentOla
• Bookings, deposits, and lease agreements are made directly between you and the provider; StudentOla is not a party to that agreement
• We recommend reviewing a provider's own terms, cancellation policy, and lease conditions carefully before booking

4. Job & Graduate Role Listings

• StudentOla is not the employer for any role listed on the platform. Applications are submitted to and assessed by the listing employer
• We do not guarantee interviews, offers, or employment outcomes for any listing
• You are responsible for ensuring you meet the eligibility and work-rights requirements stated in a job listing before applying

6. Fees

Browsing listings and applying to jobs through StudentOla is free for students. Where an accommodation provider charges a booking or service fee, this will be clearly disclosed before you confirm a booking.

7. Prohibited Conduct

You agree not to: post false or misleading information; use the platform to harass providers, employers, or other users; scrape or republish listings without permission; or attempt to circumvent the platform to avoid applicable fees.

8. Intellectual Property

All StudentOla branding, site design, and original content are the property of StudentOla Pty Ltd and may not be reproduced without permission. Listing content (photos, descriptions) remains the property of the respective provider or employer.

9. Limitation of Liability

StudentOla provides the platform on an "as available" basis and makes reasonable efforts to keep listings accurate and up to date. To the extent permitted by law, StudentOla is not liable for losses arising from bookings, leases, or employment arrangements made with third-party providers or employers, including inaccuracies in listings provided by those third parties.

10. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that breach these terms, including posting fraudulent listings or misusing the platform.

1. Information We Collect

• Account details: name, email address, phone number, university, and course/graduation year
• Housing enquiries: move-in dates, budget, city preferences, and messages sent to accommodation providers
• Job applications: CV/resume, cover letters, work rights status, and information submitted when applying to a listed role
• Technical data: IP address, browser type, device information, and site usage data collected via cookies and analytics tools

2. How We Use Your Information

• To match you with relevant housing and job listings
• To pass your enquiry or application on to the accommodation provider or employer you've chosen to contact
• To send booking confirmations, application updates, and (if opted in) our weekly digest of new listings
• To improve the platform, prevent fraud, and keep listings accurate
• To meet our legal and regulatory obligations

3. Sharing Your Information

We share information only where necessary to deliver the service you've requested. Accommodation providers receive your enquiry details when you request a booking or more information on a listing, and employers receive your application materials when you apply to a job through StudentOla. We do not sell personal information to third parties, and we do not share your data with providers or employers you haven't chosen to contact.

4. Cookies

StudentOla uses cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how the site is used. You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings; some features may not work as intended if cookies are disabled.

5. Data Storage & Security

We store data on secure, access-controlled servers and use industry-standard measures to protect it against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. Data is retained only for as long as needed to provide our services or as required by law, after which it is securely deleted or de-identified.

7. Overseas Users

Because many StudentOla users are international students, some data may be processed or stored outside Australia by our hosting or analytics providers. Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps to ensure your information continues to receive an equivalent level of protection.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The "last updated" date at the top of this page will always reflect the most recent version.
