Privacy Policy

PERSONAL INFORMATION

We collect personal information when we provide services to clients, or when a client requires us to collect information on their behalf. Generally, we disclose why we are collecting personal information and how we plan to use it. Otherwise these things will be obvious when we collect the information. We also collect publicly available information from websites and other sources.

We usually collect only general information such as contact details, organisation, and job title, and publicly available data about an organisation's activities. If other information, such as individuals' biographies, are published on websites or other publicly available sources, we may collect that as well. We collect only professional information, not private, family or confidential financial details. If we collect sensitive information (as defined in the Privacy Act) it will usually be for the purposes of providing our professional services. If the law requires us to, we will seek consent to collect it.

WEB SITE DATA COLLECTION

We collect information through this website only when it is provided voluntarily. This will happen, for example, when visitors fill in a form to subscribe to our products or register to attend a conference or seminar. Our web host makes a record of all visits to this website and records the following information:

• Internet address
• domain name
• the date and time of visits to the website.

Our web host also collects information such as the pages our users access, the documents they download, links from other sites they follow to reach our site, and the types of browser they use. This information is anonymous and is used only for statistical and website development purposes. It is kept in a web log, and is standard web usage information.

USE OF INFORMATION

We use the information we collect to provide and market our services and to enhance and develop our relationship with our clients. We may disclose this information to other parties from time to time to help us to provide and market our services. If we do this we require these parties to protect the information the same way we do.

SECURITY

We use a variety of physical and electronic security measures. These include restricting physical access to our offices, firewalls and secure databases to keep personal information secure from misuse, loss or unauthorised use or disclosure. The Internet is not a secure environment. If you use the Internet to send us any information, including your email address, it is sent at your own risk.
