This Privacy Policy explains in general terms how we protect the privacy of your personal information under the Privacy Law.

PERSONAL INFORMATION

The expression ‘personal information’ is defined in the Privacy Law as information or an opinion (including information or an opinion forming part of a database), whether true or not, and whether recorded in a material form or not, about an individual whose identity is apparent, or can reasonably be ascertained, from the information or opinion.

HOW WE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION

As far as possible, we will collect your personal information directly from you unless it is unreasonable or impracticable to do so. However, in circumstances where a product or service is to be provided to you as arranged by a third party, that third party may have provided us with your personal information.

If we collect personal information about you from someone else, we will, whenever reasonably possible, make you aware that we have done this, and the circumstances of that collection.

In particular, we will collect personal information about you in the following circumstances:

Collection from Third Parties

We will collect personal information from registered users who have provided your personal information to us for the purpose of booking our products or services. We will collect personal information from external service providers to whom we have contracted out for specific purposes. We will also collect personal information from third parties who offer products and services to our members or registrants.

We will collect personal information for handling complaints.

If you obtain services from third parties in conjunction with registration with us, the third parties may provide personal information, as far as it is permitted by law.

Collection from use of Website or Mobile App

If you use our website or mobile app, we may utilise cookies and any other technologies, which enable us to monitor traffic patterns and to service you more efficiently if you revisit our website or mobile app. A third party vendor may also use a cookie or similar technology to serve advertisements based on your visits to our website or mobile app. A cookie or similar technology does not identify you personally but may identify your internet service provider, computer or mobile device. You can set your browser or mobile device to notify you when you receive a cookie or web beacon, and this will provide you with an opportunity to either accept or reject it in each instance.

Generally, the purpose of collection and holding personal information, and the minimum information you need to provide, will be conveyed to you at the time of collection. We also collect some non-personal information for the purposes of advertising with third party vendors, such as advertisements displayed by Google on the internet.

If we collect sensitive information about you, we will only do so with your consent, unless consent is not required by law. Sensitive information is defined in the Privacy Law and includes information such as health information.

The use of our products and services will require that you identify yourself when you deal with us. If you choose not to provide the personal information requested, then we may not be able to provide you with the products and services that you require.

Unsolicited Personal Information

If we receive unsolicited personal information about you, we will, within a reasonable period after receiving the information, determine whether or not we could have collected the information under the Privacy Law if we had solicited the information. If we could have collected the personal information, we will ensure that this Privacy Policy is complied with in relation to that information and will notify you:

that the unsolicited personal information has been collected;
the circumstances of that collection; and
refer you to this Privacy Policy.

If we could not have collected the personal information had we solicited it, we will destroy the information or ensure that it is de-identified as soon as practicable.

PURPOSE OF COLLECTION, STORAGE, USE AND DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

The purposes of collecting, storing, using and disclosing you personal information may be to:

verify your identity
provide the products and services you have requested
administer and manage service offerings, such as charging, billing and collecting debts

DIRECT MARKETING

We may use or disclose your personal information for the purpose of direct marketing, to promote our products and services or those of third parties.

You expressly consent to the use and/or disclosure of your personal information for direct marketing purposes. You also expressly consent for us to disclose your personal information to our business partners or other third party providers to facilitate their sending direct marketing communications to you.

You may ask us to identify the source of the personal information that we use or disclose for direct marketing purposes. You can do this at any time by contacting us via the details set out at the end of this Privacy Policy.

If at any time you do not wish to receive any further direct marketing communications whether from us or from third parties, you can ask us not to send you any further direct marketing communications and not to disclose your personal information to third parties for that purpose. You can do this at any time by using the “unsubscribe” facility included in a prominent statement in the direct marketing communications or by contacting us via the details set out at the end of this Privacy Policy.

DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES

In addition to the direct marketing purposes referred to above, we may disclose your personal information to third parties, which may include:

external service providers to whom we have contracted out functions
our business partners that provide products and services to our registrants
government and regulatory authorities and other organisations, as required or authorised by law

We will not disclose your personal information to business partners as described above, if you advise us that you do not wish us to please refer to our contact details set out below.

Other than the above, we will not disclose your personal information without your consent, unless disclosure is either necessary to lessen or prevent a serious threat to life, health or safety, authorised or required by law, reasonably necessary to enforce the law or necessary to investigate a suspected unlawful activity or serious misconduct.

HOW WE HOLD YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Once we have collected personal information from you, we transfer data to our services for storage and processing. You consent to that transfer.

Data Quality

We take all reasonable precautions to ensure that personal information about collected by us is accurate, complete and up to date.

We require that you:

let us know if there are any errors in your personal information; and
keep us up to date with changes to your information.

Data Security

We will take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is protected from misuse, loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

If we no longer need your personal information for any purpose for which the information may be used or disclosed or required by law, we will take reasonable steps to destroy the information or ensure that the information is de-identified.
