PRIVACY POLICY
Introduction
Andrew Rogers is committed to complying with the Privacy Amendment (Private Sector) Act 2000, which commences in December 2001, and the privacy provisions of all applicable legislation.
Collecting information
When I collect personal information from an individual, I will ensure that I do so in a fair manner and that we let the individual know where and how to contact our organisation. I will only collect information that is necessary for one or more of our functions or activities. I will advise individuals of the purposes for which their personal information is collected, and of those third parties to whom the information is usually disclosed.
If I collect sensitive information (as defined under the Act), I will treat it with the utmost security and confidentiality. I will ensure that it is not collected for any purposes, other than those for which we have obtained the individual?s consent, unless the law requires otherwise, or other exceptional circumstances prevail as described under the Act. Where an individual chooses not to provide requested information, I will advise that individual of what impact this non-disclosure may have. For example, withholding certain information may limit my ability to market relevant offers or services to individuals.
Disclosing information
I will only disclose personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act.
In the course of our business activities, I may need to disclose some of your personal information to relevant business partners.
I will only disclose personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act
As Andrew Rogers is committed to protecting the privacy of individuals, I will view unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, personal information by my employees, contractors or agents, as a serious breach of this policy. Appropriate action (which may include disciplinary or legal action) will be taken in such cases.
Opt-Out
I will always provide individuals with a cost free way of contacting myself to register a request to “opt-out” from receiving further marketing offers.
I will provide an opt-out opportunity with direct marketing offers in accordance with the legislation.
Access to personal information
Individuals will be able to access their personal information upon request. However, I may occasionally need to deny access to information in accordance with the exemptions contained in the Act.
Security
My goal is to protect the personal information collected by Andrew Rogers and my businesses. Personal information will be managed confidentially and securely and destroyed appropriately when no longer required. I will monitor and implement appropriate technical advances or management processes, to safeguard personal information.
Data Quality
I will take all reasonable steps to ensure that the data I collect, use or disclose is accurate, complete and up to date, and has been obtained directly from individuals or other reputable sources.
To this end, I will ensure that marketing communication campaigns are regularly checked against our opt-out register.
