Audit trail for ACL complaint documentation

Complaint handling aligned with Australian law

Australian Consumer Law (ACL) and the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) set expectations for how businesses handle customer complaints and personal data. FeedSolve is designed to meet these expectations without requiring a compliance team to implement.

ACL Accessible Complaints

ACL expects complaint processes to be accessible without unnecessary barriers. FeedSolve's zero-login QR code submission means any Australian customer can submit a complaint from their phone in under 60 seconds — no account, no app, no password.

Privacy Act — Anonymous Access

Under the Privacy Act 1988, individuals have a right to interact anonymously where reasonably practicable. FeedSolve's anonymous mode lets submitters report concerns without providing personal information — they still receive a tracking code.

ACCC Enforcement Documentation

ACCC enforcement actions often examine whether businesses have documented complaint processes. FeedSolve's timestamped audit trail — including assignment history, internal notes, and resolution confirmation — provides this documentation automatically.

APPs Data Minimisation

Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) require that personal data collected is limited to what's necessary. FeedSolve collects only what submitters voluntarily provide — contact fields are optional, not hidden-required.

Multi-State Operations

Run separate complaint boards for different Australian states, territories, or locations. Each board has its own QR code and settings. All submissions appear in one dashboard — ideal for businesses operating across NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, and SA.

TGA / Industry-Specific Note

FeedSolve is general SMB complaint management software. It is not a TGA-compliant adverse event reporting system or an AFCA-registered financial services complaints system. For regulated industry complaints, check your specific industry requirements.

Complaint management software Australia — FAQ

Does FeedSolve help Australian businesses meet Australian Consumer Law (ACL) complaint requirements?
Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010) requires that businesses handle consumer complaints accessibly and in a timely manner. FeedSolve's zero-login QR submission meets the accessibility standard. The full audit trail — timestamps, assignee history, and resolution confirmation — provides documented evidence of complaint handling consistent with ACL expectations and ACCC enforcement guidelines.
FeedSolve charges per feedback board, not per agent. The Starter plan is $19 USD/month (approx. A$29/month) with unlimited team members on that board. Freshdesk charges A$22–A$79 per agent per month — a 5-person team costs A$110–A$395/month. For most Australian SMBs, FeedSolve is significantly more cost-effective with no per-agent penalties as your team grows.
Yes. FeedSolve's anonymous mode lets Australian customers, suppliers, and staff submit complaints without providing contact information. Under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), individuals have a right to interact anonymously where reasonably practicable. FeedSolve's anonymous submission mode directly supports this right — submitters still receive a tracking code to check resolution progress.
FeedSolve is general-purpose complaint management software for Australian SMBs — hospitality, manufacturing, logistics, retail, and property management. It is not a specialised compliance tool for ASIC-regulated financial services firms. For hospitality, retail, and operations businesses, FeedSolve provides the structured intake and documented resolution process that ACCC-aligned complaint handling requires.
Yes. Create a separate feedback board for each location, branch, or state. Each board has its own QR code, category set, and team routing. All submissions appear in one dashboard filtered by board, status, or date — ideal for Australian businesses operating across multiple states or territories.
