Your personal information and the law

In Australia, personal information is protected by strict privacy rules. They are called the Australian Privacy Principals and they form part of the Privacy Act 1988.

Under this privacy legislation, you have the right to know how your personal information is collected, stored, accessed, used, and disposed of. This includes knowing and understanding when your personal information can be shared with someone else.

To provide you with high quality services and to enter into an Agreement together I need to collect and use some of your personal information. I will not collect or record any information that I do not require for the purposes of delivering my services to you.

What is your personal information used for when it is collected by me?

I need certain personal information about you to:

• communicate with you,

• understand what you want and need from me, and sometimes others, to provide you with quality services and

• for quoting and invoicing purposes

When is your consent required by me?

When your personal information is requested by any other person, service, or agency, I require your consent to share; expect where the Law otherwise allows.

Can you choose not to give your consent?

You can decline to give consent, or to limit your consent. If you do, it may become difficult or impossible for me to provide my services to you. Having relevant personal information about you directly affects my ability to provide services to you.

If you need any further information or have any questions or concerns about the collection and use of your personal information, you can discuss this with me. 

Making a complaint about the missus of your personal information

Your personal information is protected under the Privacy Act 1988. If you know or believe that your personal information has been collected, stored, accessed, used, and disposed of inappropriately, you can make a privacy complaint via the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.
