Personal Information

Personal information means information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an

individual who is reasonably identifiable, whether the information or opinion is true or not

(“Personal Information”). In essence, it is any information that can be used to personally

identify you.

If the information does not disclose your identity or enable your identity to be ascertained, it

will in most cases not be classified as Personal Information and will not be subject to this

Privacy Policy.

Application of Policy

This Privacy Policy is designed to cover:

– what information we might collect about you;

– how we might use that information;

– where we store that information;

– who we might share that information with; and

– your rights in connection with that information.

Information we collect

We will collect Personal Information that is reasonably necessary to operate our business

and provide Services to you through our Website and Software or any other mode of

interaction with us. We may also collect information to fulfil administrative functions

associated with the Services, for example, billing and managing client relationships. The

type of information that we collect will depend on the Services we provide to you and the

nature of your interactions with us.

The Personal Information that we typically collect and hold about you may include:

– your full name, postal and residential address, phone number, email address and any

other contact details;

– identification information such as driver’s licence, gender, age, date, and place of

birth;

– information about your organisation and role;

– financial information such as payment information;

– your login and account details (e.g., username and password or any images

uploaded as part of your account) provided when you create a user account to

receive the Services;

– property and location information; and

– details of your use of the Services such as the date and time of your visit, your IP

address, your social media handles, and information that you share with us

concerning the Services.

How we collect

We may collect your Personal Information directly from you during the course of our

relationship with you, including via the Services. We may collect Personal Information from

you whenever you input such information into our Website and Software for the purpose of

inquiring or receiving the Services. We may also collect cookies from your computer when

you use our Website and Software as reasonably necessary to customise your experience of

our Website and Software.

Additionally, we may collect your Personal Information when:

– responding to requests concerning the Services, information, and other general

inquiries;

– you contact us by any means including email, social media, or our Website and

Software; and

– we are otherwise required or authorised by law.

Where reasonable and practicable we will only collect Personal Information directly from

you. However, sometimes we may receive information about you from third parties, such as

through Hosting Platforms, and in cases like this we will take steps to make you aware of the

information that was provided by a third party. Personal Information that we receive from

third parties will be treated in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

We will only collect Personal Information from third parties if it is unreasonable or

impracticable to collect this information directly from you or if we are otherwise permitted to

do so.

Purpose of collection

We collect Personal Information to provide you with the best Services experience possible.

We collect, hold, use, and disclose your Personal Information in order to:

– operate, protect, improve, and optimise our business and your Services experience;

– provide the Services you or the organisation you work for may have requested;

– obtain the services of third-party service providers or engage with third parties in

relation to the Services, such as through Hosting Platforms, as part of providing the

Services to you or the organisation you work for;

– send information on news, publications, blogs, and other content to you that we think

may be of interest to you by post, email, or other means;

– perform accounting, billing, and other administrative and operational functions;

– enable you to access and use our Services; and

– comply with our legal obligations.

We otherwise collect, hold, use, and disclose your Personal Information where we are

required or authorised to do so by law or for any other purpose for which you give your

consent.

Disclosure

We may disclose Personal Information for the above purposes to:

– third parties involved in the provisions of Services to you;

– third-party service providers to whom we outsource services including agents and

contractors such as imaging firms, marketing companies, IT support and couriers;

– regulatory authorities, government agencies, and law enforcement agencies or as

otherwise required or authorised by law; and

– others where you have expressly provided your consent for us to do so.

We do not routinely disclose Personal Information overseas. However, we may disclose

Personal Information overseas when it is appropriate to do so, including to third-party service

providers. For example, we may disclose Personal Information to our service providers who

assist us in operating our Website and Software.

If we disclose your Personal Information outside Australia, we will take all reasonable steps

to ensure that the overseas recipient will deal with the Personal Information for the purpose

intended and in a way that is consistent with the Privacy Act. When we share such Personal

Information, we take reasonable steps to ensure that third-party recipients have policies and

controls in place that are at least as stringent as our own.

In defined circumstances, the European Union General Data Protection Regulation

(“GDPR”) provides additional protection to individuals located in the European Union. The

fact that you may be located in the European Union does not on its own entitle you to

protection under the GDPR. Nonetheless, if we collect Personal Information from you by

your use of the Services, there may be certain additional rights and remedies available to

you under the GDPR if your Personal Information is handled in a manner inconsistent with

the law. If you have any questions or concerns on this, please contact us as set out below.

Storage and Security

We store most Personal Information in computer systems and databases operated by us or

our external service providers. We take all commercially reasonable steps consistent with

industry practice to protect your Personal Information by using established security

standards and procedures.

To prevent the loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction of

your Personal Information, we have established physical, electronic, and managerial security

procedures appropriate to the risks represented and the nature of the Personal Information

to be protected.

It is your responsibility to protect the security of your login information by using a strong

password.

We will store your Personal Information for as long as needed to continue to provide the

Services to you or for as long as a subscription to our mailing list is active. We take

reasonable steps to securely destroy or de-identify all Personal Information where it is no

longer necessary to retain the information for the purposes for which it was requested or as

required by law.

Access and Correction

You may access Personal Information we hold about you in certain circumstances and

correct inaccurate Personal Information subject to certain exceptions. If you would like to

obtain such access, please contact us as set out below.

For certain requests, we must first verify your identity before processing your request. We

may request information about you to confirm your identity and we may require additional

information to process the request. Once we receive the required information, we will review

and determine whether we are able to fulfill the request.

Marketing

By accessing, using, and browsing our Website and Software, you consent to the receipt of

direct marketing material in relation to our business and Services. We will only use your

Personal Information for this purpose if we have collected such information directly from you,

and if it were material of a type that you would reasonably expect to receive from us.

If you do not wish to receive promotional or marketing communications from us, you can opt-

out by using the unsubscribe facility on the messages that we send you, or by contacting us
