SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We store most information about you in computer systems and databases operated by either us or our external service providers. Some information about you is recorded in paper files that we store securely.

We implement and maintain processes and security measures to protect personal information which we hold from misuse, interference or loss, and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. This includes:

·           training our staff in how to keep your information safe and secure;

·           storing your hard copy and electronic records in secure systems; and

·           using trusted contracted service providers (including cloud storage providers).

However, we advise that there are inherent risks in transmitting information across the internet, including the risk that information sent to or from a website may be intercepted, corrupted or modified by third parties.  If you have security concerns, or wish to provide personal information by other means (e.g. by telephone or paper), you may contact us using the contact details set out at the bottom of this Privacy Policy.

We take commercially reasonable precautions to keep all information obtained from our online visitors secure against unauthorised access (eg, data breach), collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification, or disposal, or similar risks, and we periodically review our security measures. However, please note that you are responsible for keeping information such as your login information and passwords confidential.

If the information we store is no longer required by us for any purpose for which it was collected and is no longer required by law to be retained by us, we will destroy or de-identify the information. We will only retain your personal information for as long as it is necessary for us to process your personal information as described above. Please be advised that we may retain some of your personal information after you cease to use our products or services, for instance if the personal information is necessary to meet our legal obligations, such as retaining the information for tax and accounting purposes.
