The release comprises procurement records for Voyager DarkCloud subscription software licences from Web-IQ B.V., a Dutch open-source intelligence provider, procured by the Intelligence Technology Section within Home Affairs. The first spending proposal, dated October 2023, sought approval for €47,250 (about AUD $77,881.50, excluding GST) for 60 accounts and three instances, via limited tender because Web-IQ has no Commonwealth panel listing and no Australian resellers. The contract ran from 1 November 2023 to 31 October 2024. A later proposal, from 2024 to 2025, sought approval for €38,475 (about AUD $62,902.78) and noted a 5 per cent discount, with a further €39,425 (about AUD $70,532.70) across 2025/26 and 2026/27. The records include a draft agreement, an end-user licence, terms and conditions, and a risk assessment template. Redactions under section 22 cover much of the substantive reasoning, risk content and identifying details. The licence terms describe the dataset, including the Darknet Hidden Services and Chan datasets, which are blurred for CSAM risk and subject to reporting to Dutch police.
