Privacy Policy

BACKGROUND AND SCOPE

The business is committed to protecting the privacy of the personal information it collects and receives. We are required to comply with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Privacy Act).

This policy explains how the business collects, uses, discloses and otherwise handles personal information relating to individuals, whether or not they are members. It also explains how you can ask to access and correct the personal information we hold about you or complain about any suspected privacy breach. Nothing in this policy limits any of our other obligations at law.

COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

The Business is required to collect personal information only by lawful and fair means. Where possible we will collect personal information we require directly from you.

Personal information we hold may include your name, current and previous addresses, telephone numbers, e-mail addresses, details of your services and information we require to perform our services for you.

Personal information entered into the Business database will not be used or disclosed by us, except as authorised by you to perform our services for you. Access to this information to third parties can only be granted by you.

Should you choose not to provide personal information we may not be able to provide you with the services you require at a sufficient level that we regard as important for performing at best practice.

We may collect personal information:

  • from the information supplied by you to the Business
  • in conversation and communication with you
  • from third parties, related companies or your representatives
  • from publicly available sources of information
  • when we are required to do so by law
  • from our own records with the Business

Where the business collects your personal information, the business will take reasonable steps to notify you of:

  • the purposes for which we are collecting the information
  • the third parties to whom we may disclose the information of that kind
  • whether any of those third parties are located overseas and, if practicable to specify, the countries in which they are located
  • how to access and correct personal information and make privacy complaints
  • The Business will only collect sensitive information where it is reasonably necessary for our core functions or activities.

The business will enable you to access our website and make general telephone enquiries without having to identify yourself. The business also enables you to respond to our surveys anonymously.
