Privacy Policy
We recognise the importance of protecting the privacy of
information collected about visitors to our sites, in particular
information that is capable of identifying an individual ("personal
information"). This Internet Privacy Policy governs the manner in
which your personal information, obtained through the web site,
will be dealt with. This Privacy Policy should be reviewed
periodically so that you are updated on any changes.
Your Personal Information
Personal information about visitors to our sites is collected
only when knowingly and voluntarily submitted. For example, we may
need to collect such information to provide you with further
services or to answer or forward any requests or enquiries. It is
our intention that this policy will protect your personal
information from being dealt with in any way that is inconsistent
with applicable privacy laws in Australia.
How We Collect Personal Information
In the course of providing our services, we collect personal
information in a variety of ways. For example, information is
collected when you:
- ask to be placed on one of our mailing lists
- apply for a job with us, make an enquiry about our
services
- visit our web site or
- become a client or debtor of the company
- Information provided by you
- You provide most of the personal information directly to us and
for a specific purpose.
How we use the information we collect
Personal information that visitors submit to our sites is used
only for the purpose for which it is submitted unless we disclose
other uses in this Internet Privacy Policy or at the time of
collection. Copies of correspondence sent from the web site, that
may contain personal information, are stored as archives for
record-keeping and back-up purposes only. You should be aware that
we may use your email address to contact you in the future. We will
not sell or pass on your details to third parties. Use of the
information for a secondary purpose
We may sometimes use the personal information we collect for a
secondary purpose, that is, for use in a way different from the
original reason for collection. We will only do this in the
following circumstances:
- where you have consented
- where the secondary purpose is directly related to the primary
purpose, and you would reasonably expect us to use or disclose the
information in such a way, or
- where we are permitted or required by law, or it is in the
interests of public safety to do so.
Correcting information
You can also request that information about you be corrected or
deleted. This is part of our commitment to take all reasonable
steps to ensure that the information we hold about you is accurate,
complete and up-to-date.
Disclosure
You should be aware that we may use your email address to
contact you in the future. We will not sell or pass on your details
to third parties.
Security
We strive to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of
personal information submitted to our site. Unfortunately, no data
transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be totally
secure. However, we will endeavour to take all reasonable steps to
protect the personal information you may transmit to us or from our
online products and services. Once we do receive your transmission,
we will also make our best efforts to ensure its security on our
systems. In addition, our employees and the contractors who provide
services related to our information systems are obliged to respect
the confidentiality of any personal information held by us.
However, we will not be held responsible for events arising from
unauthorised access to your personal information.
Links to other sites
We provide links to Web sites outside of our web site, as well
as to third party Web sites. These linked sites are not under our
control, and we cannot accept responsibility for the conduct of
companies linked to our website. Before disclosing your personal
information on any other website, we advise you to examine the
terms and conditions of using that Web sites and its privacy
statement.
