Accessing and amending your personal information 

We acknowledge that you have a general right to access the information We hold about you. However, We may not be required to provide you with access to your personal information to the extent that (amongst other things):  

We reasonably believe that access would pose a serious impact to the life, health or safety of any individual, or to public health or public safety 

  1. giving access would have an unreasonable impact on the privacy of other individuals; or 

  2. the information relates to existing or anticipated legal proceedings between the entity and the individual, and would not be accessible by the process of discovery in those proceedings; or 

  3. giving access would be unlawful.  

You are able to request access to your personal information by contacting Our Privacy Manager (details below).  You may be required to pay an administrative charge for associated matters, such as copying charges, but not for making the request itself.  We may require up to 30 days from notice to comply with your request to access your personal information. 

If We refuse your request to access the information We hold about you, We will provide you with Our reason/s for doing so.  

If you have access to an online account with Us, you may login to your account and access your personal information.  

Accuracy of personal information 

We rely on you to provide us with accurate and up to date information about you. If there are any changes to your personal information during the course of dealing with Us, you are responsible for advising Us. 

We will take reasonable steps to ensure your personal information is kept up-to-date, accurate, complete and not misleading. If you believe the personal information We hold about you is incorrect or inaccurate, you can request that We update this information by contact Our Privacy Manager (details below).  

We will correct information We hold about you if We discover, or you are able to show to a reasonable standard, that the information is incorrect or inaccurate. If you seek a correction and We disagree that the information is incorrect, We will provide you with Our reasons for taking that view.  

Storage and security 

We will take reasonable steps to protect the security of your personal information from misuse, interference or loss by restricting access to the information from unauthorised access or disclosure. 

We hold personal information electronically and in hard copy paper format. For information that is stored electronically, We take reasonable security measures to ensure that personal information is protected by firewalls, secure logon processes and encryption technologies. Hard copy information is securely stored in an appropriate and secure filing system.  

Overseas disclosure  

Any personal information provided to Us may be transferred to, stored by or disclosed to an overseas recipient.  For example, We may use a server hosted overseas to store date, which may include your personal information, or engage an organisation located overseas to assist Us in Our general business operations.  

Before your information is disclosed to an overseas recipient We will take steps as are reasonable in the circumstances to ensure that the overseas recipient does not breach privacy laws in relation to your personal information (“reasonable steps”). 

However, the reasonable steps may not apply, if We reasonably believe (when disclosing your personal information to the overseas recipient) that: 

  1. the recipient of the information is subject to a law, that has the effect of protecting the information in a way that, overall, is at least substantially similar to the way in which the Australian Privacy Principles protect the information; and 

  2. there are mechanisms that an individual can access to take action to enforce the protection of their privacy.  

Unsolicited information  

We will take reasonable steps to determine whether or not information We receive may be unsolicited information. If We believe that information is unsolicited information, We will destroy the information as soon as practicable or ensure that it is de-identified.  

Anonymity  

Only where it is practicable to do so, We may allow you the option not to identify yourself when dealing with Us.  However not identifying yourself to Us may make it difficult to effectively provide you with Our goods or services.  

Sensitive information  

We do not collect sensitive information unless it is specifically relevant and necessary for the purpose of Our general business operations and your express consent is first obtained.  

Government identifiers  

We will not use government identifiers such as your tax file number or Medicare number to identify you. 

Complaints 

If you have reasons to believe that We have not managed your personal information in accordance with Our Privacy Policy, or complied with Our privacy obligations, please refer any concerns or complainants to Our Privacy Manager (details below). 

We will ensure your concerns or complaints are handled by Our Privacy Manager in an appropriate and reasonable manner.
