Privacy Policy
Your privacy is important. This information explains how we comply with Australian privacy requirements.
Privacy Policy
The Stan Perron Charitable Foundation’s system for complying with Australian privacy requirements includes:
• our commitment to compliance with privacy requirements;
• our policy and approach to privacy, as explained in this information;
• our resources allocated to privacy, including our technology systems and services; and
• our people and the training and education we undertake.
What is personal information?
Personal information is any information or an opinion, in any form and whether true or not, about an identified individual or an individual who is reasonably identifiable.
We will only collect sensitive information about you with your consent (unless we are otherwise allowed or required by law to collect that information). Sensitive information includes information about your health, race, ethnic origin and religious beliefs.
Collecting your personal information
Depending on your involvement with The Stan Perron Charitable Foundation, we may collect personal information about you such as your name, your contact details, and other information about you such as your age.
We collect this information when you contact us, or when we ask you for it and you, or others on your behalf authorised by you, provide it to us.
Where you prefer that we do not collect your personal information, we may not be able to assist you.
Where reasonably possible, we seek to work with information and records from which personal information has been removed.
When we use and disclose personal information, in addition to complying with privacy laws and requirements, we comply with applicable laws.
We also collect information that may or may not include your personal information, through technology and tools that tell us when a computer or device has visited or accessed our content. Those tools include services from search engines and other companies that help us to tailor our content. Search engines provide facilities to allow you to indicate your preferences in relation to the use of those tools in connection with computers and other devices controlled or used by you.
Using your personal information
Generally, we use your personal information for our activities, and in our efforts to expand and improve our activities. Examples include:
providing information about us, including dealing with any enquiry;
for making an application for a grant;
for a business or professional relationship we may have with you;
if you apply for employment with us, to consider your application;
to amend records to remove personal information; and
for other everyday business purposes that involve use of personal information.
Storing and disclosing your personal information
We use various systems and services to safeguard the personal information we store and use, as part of our business systems and processes.
Like many companies, these systems and services may also be provided by other people and organisations assisting us with services, located both in and outside Australia.
When we pass on or share your personal information in this way, we take steps to ensure it is treated in the same way that we would treat it.
We do our best to keep records of personal information up to date and accurate and not to keep personal information that is no longer needed.
We sometimes have to pass on your personal information to third parties for legal or safety reasons or other special circumstances. For example, information may be disclosed to a court in response to a subpoena or to a Government agency.
If the law requires us to provide you with information about our products and services, we will provide that information even if you have elected not to receive such information.
Ensuring personal information is up to date
We take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we hold is accurate, complete, up to date and relevant whenever we collect or use it. This means that from time to time we will ask you to tell us if there are any changes to your personal information. If you find that information we hold about you is incorrect, please contact us immediately and we will take reasonable steps to correct it.
Security of personal information
We may store your information in hardcopy and/or in electronic form. Security of personal information is important to us and we take reasonable precautions to protect personal information from misuse, interference and loss, and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
