Types of information we collect and hold

The types of personal information we collect and hold include:

contact details (for example, name, postal address, email address, telephone number(s) and facsimile number);
information about orders placed by customers;
information about prospective employees which is collected during the recruitment process, such as employment history and educational qualifications;
financial information, such as credit/debit card information or other billing information;
information about customers’ experience with our products.

We may also collect other information that is not linked to your personal information such as your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our website.

Where practical, we will collect personal information directly from you when we deal with you in person, by telephone, letter, facsimile, email or when you visit our website or subscribe to our services.

For example, we may collect your personal information when you:

make enquiries about our product or services;
purchase our products or services;

enter into an agreement with us.

In the course of carrying out our functions and activities, we may collect personal information about you indirectly from publicly available sources or from third parties such as recruitment agencies or entities which refer work or recommend service providers to us.

In general, you can visit our website without revealing personal information. There are times, however, when we may need your personal information in order to service your needs. For example, if you wish to order or request products, services or information you may be required to share certain personal information with us so that we can process your order or request. If you do not provide us with your personal information, we may not be able to provide you with our products or services or offer you a job or work experience.

Use and disclosure of information.

The purposes for which we may collect, hold, use and disclose your personal information include:

Your personal information may also be processed by staff operating outside Australia, who work for us, our related companies or for one of our suppliers. Such staff may be engaged in, among other things, the fulfilment of your order, the processing of your payment details and the provision of support services.

We also utilise third-party software and technologies to record, store and manage personal information collected by us. Consequentially your personal information may be stored on third party servers which may be located in range of different countries at any one time including in the USA.
