    We take care to work with such third parties who we believe maintain an acceptable standard of data security and require them not to use your personal information for any purpose except for those activities we have asked them to perform on our behalf.

    • as needed in an emergency or in investigating suspected criminal activity;
    • we are required to disclose under a subpoena, court order or other mandatory reporting requirements;

    • it is reasonably necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defence of a legal claim; or
    • it is otherwise authorised or required by law.

    Storage of your personal information

    We may store your personal information in electronic or hard-copy form and, for the most part, we do not disclose or transfer personal information overseas.

    However, service providers we engage may operate overseas data centres or disaster recovery sites or have personnel overseas who may access the personal information we hold to assist us in managing our servers.

    We also may use Google Analytics to track web traffic information which is operated by Google which stores information across multiple countries.

    When you communicate with us through a social media service, the social media provider and its partners may collect and hold your personal information overseas.

    Marketing

    We may at times send you marketing communications which will be done in accordance with the Spam Act 2003 (Cth) (Spam Act).

    If we do, we may use email, SMS, social media, phone, or mail to send you direct marketing communications.

    Where consent is needed, we will ask you for your consent before sending you marketing communications, except where you:

    • have explicitly opted-in to receiving email marketing from us in the past; or
    • were given the option to opt-out of email marketing when you initially signed up for one of our platforms and you did not do so.

    You can, at any time, opt out of receiving marketing materials from us by using the opt-out facility provided (e.g., an unsubscribe link on emails we send you) or by contacting us via the details provided at the end of this policy. We will implement such a request as soon as possible, however, cannot guarantee that such a response will be immediate.

    The information we collect may have analytical, educational, or commercial value to us. Where we have de-identified the information we have collected, we reserve the right to process and distribute such information.

    Security

    We take reasonable steps to ensure your personal information is secure and protected from misuse or unauthorised access. Our information technology systems are protected using a range of administrative and technical measures. However, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.
