Privacy Policy

We may collect personal information about you when it’s reasonably necessary for, or directly related to, our functions or activities.

 

We may collect sensitive information about you:

• where you consent

• when the collection is authorised or required by law

• the collection is otherwise allowed under the Privacy Act (1988).

​

The personal information that we may collect includes:

• identity information (such as your name and address);

• contact information (such as your phone number, email address, residential and postal address);

• any other information provided to us.

​

We collect your personal information through a variety of channels. This includes paper forms, online forms and applications, social networking services such as Facebook, electronic correspondence, face to face, or over the telephone.

​

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information against misuse, interference and loss, and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. We will not disclose your personal information to third parties unless you consent or where we are required by law. When no longer required, we destroy or archive personal information in a secure manner.

​

You have the right to ask:

• for access to personal information that we hold about you

• that we correct personal information we hold about you.

​

If you ask, we must give you access to your personal information and take reasonable steps to correct it if we consider it is incorrect, unless there is a law that allows or requires us not to.

​

In general, we attempt to limit the collection of sensitive information, but depending on how you use our services, we may need to collect sensitive information from you. That said, we will never collect sensitive information from you without your consent unless we are permitted or required to do so by law. If you do not wish us to store any sensitive information, please do not provide it to us directly.
