This Privacy Policy also details how we store or process personal information about you, with whom we may share it and the choices available to you regarding our use of the information. We also describe the measures we take to safeguard your personal information and tell you how to contact us regarding our privacy practices. We will only use the personal information collected from you in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

If you or your organisation has an individual agreement with us, that agreement may have privacy terms that also apply to the information you provide to us under that agreement. Please review the terms in that agreement because they may be different or more restrictive than the terms in this Privacy Policy.

While our Services may contain links to websites owned by third parties, those websites are not subject to our privacy standards, policies and procedures. We recommend that you make your own enquiries as to the privacy policies of these third parties and we are in no way responsible for the privacy practices of these parties.

By using our Services, you understand that we will collect and use your information as described in this Privacy Policy.

Information we collect automatically

We may automatically collect information from you and your devices when you use our Services. This may include your IP address, the type of browser and device you use to access the Services, the web page you visited before coming to our websites, and other identifiers associated with your devices.

Our websites are not designed to respond to “do not track” signals from browsers.

Analytics

We may use third-party web analytics services on our Services, such as Google Analytics. These service providers help us analyse how users use our Services.

Information we collect from other sources

We may collect information about you from other sources, such as third-party service providers whose products integrate with our Services or other independent third parties who are legally allowed to share your information with us.

4. Cookies

We use technologies like cookies, pixel tags and web beacons to recognise you when you visit our website or use our Services and to provide, improve, protect and promote our Services.

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file which is placed on your computer or device by our web page servers when you access our Services. The purpose of a cookie is to help analyse web traffic and to allow our Services to respond to you when you return to our Services. Cookies are also used to enhance the secure use of our Services. Cookies are frequently used and in themselves do not identify the user, just the computer used.

How we use cookies

When you browse our website or use our Services, we may record geographical tagging, cookies and statistical data. This may include your IP address, date and time of your visit, operating system, language preferences, device characteristics, pages visited, information downloaded and type of browser used to access the Services. Cookies help us remember your username for your next visit, remember information regarding your recent activity, and understand how you are interacting with our Services so that we can improve them based on that information.

Web beacons

We also may use web beacons on our Services. A web beacon, also known as a pixel tag or clear GIF, may be used to transmit information collected through cookies to our service providers’ servers, such as the server of Google AdWords. These web beacons enable our service providers to compile anonymous information about your browsing activity on the Services.

Disabling cookies

You can choose if and how a cookie will be accepted by configuring your preferences and options in your browser. However, if you decide not to display cookies you may not experience optimum performance of our website.

5. Why we collect, hold, use and disclose personal information

We collect, hold, use and disclose personal information from you or about you where it is reasonably necessary for us to carry out our business functions and activities and as necessary to provide the Services to you. We also collect, hold, use and disclose your personal information for related purposes that you would reasonably expect, such as our administrative and accounting functions.

For example, we may use the information obtained through the Services at your request to:

  • create and manage your account
  • market features, products or special events using email or send you marketing communications about third-party products and services we think may be of interest to you
  • permit you to participate in blogs, forums and discussion groups
  • respond to and communicate with you about your requests, questions and comments
  • process claims we receive in connection with our Services.

If we do not collect, hold, use or disclose your personal information, or if you do not consent, then we may not be able to answer your enquiry, complete the transaction you have entered into, or provide our Services to you to the best of our ability.

In addition, we use information collected online through the use of cookies, pixel tags and other automated means. This information is used to:

  • recognise your device when you use the Services
  • manage our Services
  • offer and provide products, services and information to you
  • operate, evaluate and improve our business
  • analyse your use of the Services
  • personalise the Services, including targeted advertisements that may be of particular interest to you
  • help diagnose technical and service problems
  • identify users of our Services
  • gather demographic information about our users.

We use such information to help us to make decisions about maintaining and improving our Services and to assist us in providing an effective service (e.g. to adapt our Services to the needs of your device or to allow you to log in to our Services).

We may also use your personal information for purposes which are required by law such as sharing your personal information in order to comply with legal obligations to which we are subject.

6. Ad networks

You may see certain ads on other websites based on your visits to our Services because we participate in advertising networks administered by third-party vendors, such as Google AdWords. Ad networks allow us to target our messaging to users considering demographic data, users’ inferred interests and browsing context. These networks track your online activities over time by collecting information through automated means, including through the use of cookies, web server logs and web beacons. The networks use this information to show you advertisements that are tailored to your individual interests, to track your browser across multiple websites, and to build a profile of your web browsing. The information our ad network vendors collect includes information about your visits to websites that participate in the vendors’ advertising networks, such as the pages or advertisements you view and the actions you take on the websites. This data collection takes place both on our Services and on third-party websites that participate in the ad networks. This process also helps us track the effectiveness of our marketing efforts.

We may use the features of Google Analytics for Display Advertisers. That includes obtaining specific visitor cookie data, such as the source, medium and keywords used to visit our Services.

To learn more about how to opt out of ad network interest-based advertising, contact us using our contact details in section 16 of this Privacy Policy.

7. Marketing

We may use your information to offer you products and services that we think may be of interest to you, unless you have opted out of marketing communications.

Where required by applicable law, we will obtain your consent before sending you any marketing communications. You may withdraw your consent to the use of your data for marketing purposes at any time by contacting us on our contact details in section 16 of this Privacy Policy.

We will never provide your information to third parties for marketing purposes without receiving your consent.

8. Lawful basis for processing your information

If Australian data privacy regulations apply, our lawful basis for collecting and using the information described in this Privacy Policy will depend on the information concerned and the specific context in which we collect or use it.

We normally collect or use information from you where we have your consent to do so, where we need the information to perform a contract with you or to provide our services or products to you upon your request, or where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or rights and freedoms.

For example, when we:

  • use information to create and manage your account, we need it in order to provide the relevant Services
  • use information to effect a transaction you have requested, we need it in order to provide you with the product or Services you are purchasing
  • use names and email addresses for email marketing purposes, we do so with your consent (which you can revoke at any time)
  • gather usage data and analyse it to improve our Services, we do so based on our legitimate interest in safeguarding and improving our Services.

If you have questions about or need further information concerning the lawful basis on which we collect and use your personal information, please contact us using the contact details in section 16 of this Privacy Policy.

9. Disclosure of information
Information shared to third parties

We will disclose personal information to third parties if it is necessary for the primary purpose of collecting the information, or for a related secondary purpose, if the disclosure could be reasonably expected.

We may share your personal information:

  • to companies that are related to us through common ownership
