PRIVACY POLICY

Diamond Approach Path Australia Ltd (DAA) is a Company Limited by Guarantee. We are a not-for-profit organisation and registered charity under the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC) Act.

We are a community organisation that has responsibility for the day-to-day functioning of a collective of Diamond Approach® groups in Australia. DAA also provides care and support to the student body and the teaching team of these ongoing groups.

DAA is an integral part of the international network of teachings, organisations and people known as the Ridhwan® School. While DAA operates as an affiliated organisation with the Ridhwan Foundation, the umbrella organisation of the Diamond Approach, we are independent in our everyday functioning.
