ABOUT THIS POLICY
Australian Business Lawyers & Advisors is committed to protecting the privacy of Personal Information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth)(the Act). This Privacy Policy sets out our approach to handling Personal Information and includes information about how we collect, use, disclose and hold your personal information.
This Privacy Policy applies to all Personal Information collected in any way through our Platform or otherwise through your dealings with us. You should read this Privacy Policy carefully, as you are taken to have consented to the terms of this Privacy Policy through your use of the Platform or in choosing to deal with us.
If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, you may not use the Platform, and we may not be able to provide you with the service or other assistance you seek.
We may change, vary or modify all or part of this Privacy Policy at any time in our sole discretion.
If we adopt a new Privacy Policy:
we will post the new Privacy Policy on the Platform; and
it will thereupon apply through your acceptance of it by subsequent or continued use of the Platform.
It is your responsibility to check this Privacy Policy periodically for changes.
By using the Platform, or by engaging us to provide services or other assistance for you, you affirm that you are 18 years or over or otherwise possess legal parental or guardian supervisory consent.
The NSW Business Chamber and its affiliated entities operate other platforms, websites and conduct other businesses which have their own privacy policies and terms. They are not affected by the terms of this Privacy Policy, which is specific to the Platform and the business of Australian Business Lawyers & Advisors.
This Privacy Policy was last updated on 3 May 2017.
PURPOSE
This Privacy Policy explains:
what information we collect;
how we collect personal information;
how we use personal information;
the disclosure of personal information;
your right of access to your personal information;
your right to inspect and, where necessary, correct the personal information that we hold about you;
your right to have your personal information protected from misuse or unauthorised access; and
your right to have your privacy complaints investigated and resolved.
COLLECTION
The kinds of Personal Information we collect will depend on what type of interaction you have with us. However, it may include:
information such as your name, date of birth, gender, postal address, residential address, occupation, career history, telephone number, email address, age, and IP address;
Information relating to the nature of any services being sought, including information of a commercial or legal nature;
financial information including credit card and banking information, business references, details about your business, or your Australian Business Number;
insurance details, rates and fees;
personal information obtained through interaction with or by following our social media pages, including Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn (if applicable);
your records of communication with us when you submit an enquiry; or
if you are applying for a position with us, your personal information as outlined in the section below entitled Employment Applications.
We also collect information that is not Personal Information, such as data relating to your activity on the Platform or interaction with us by any means (Other Information).
Other Information we collect may include:
the type of browser and operating system you used to view the Platform;
the date and time you visited the Platform;
the web pages or services you accessed at the Platform;
the time spent on individual pages and the Platform overall;
which files you downloaded; and
information about your computer and internet connections using cookies.
We do not collect Sensitive Information about you unless:
it is necessary and we have your consent;
it is required by law or in accordance with the Act; or
you volunteer the Sensitive Information to us as part of your submission of an enquiry or in connection with the provision of legal services.
COLLECTION METHODS
If at any time you provide Personal Information about anyone other than yourself, you warrant to us that you have that person’s consent to provide such information for the purpose specified.
You are not obliged to give us your Personal Information. If you would like to access any of our services or features of our Platform on an anonymous basis, you may make a request outlining the services or features you would like to access, which we will take reasonable steps to comply with.
Other Information is collected by automated methods.
Sensitive Information (if collected) is obtained through your use of the Platform or pursuant to your engagement with us in the provision of legal services.
We have integrated Google Analytics into the Platform (see http://www.google.com/analytics/ for details). This enables the collection of data about traffic on the Platform via a DoubleClick cookie in addition to data collected through the standard Google Analytics implementation.
We may as part of the use of Google Analytics functionality switch on Display Advertising which enables features that are not available through standard implementations. This includes Remarketing , Google Display Network Impression Reporting, DoubleClick Campaign Manager integration and Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting , each as described by Google.
We will not facilitate the merging of personally-identifiable information with non-personally identifiable information previously collected from Display Advertising features that is based on the DoubleClick cookie unless we have given you notice of, and have your prior affirmative (i.e., opt-in) consent to, that merger.
We have currently only activated Display Advertising for Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting.
Using Ads Settings, visitors to the Platform can opt-out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising and customize Google Display Network ads. A Browser opt-out is available at: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/.
We use Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reports to obtain a more detailed understanding of our Platform users and their potential needs. Data collected from such reports may be used to more accurately target marketing and advertising campaigns based on demographic information and more generally for the Primary Purpose and additional purposes details in this Policy. We do not collect data on individuals by such methods; only aggregate data is used for planning purposes.

to improve our services and communications with you;

We are not obliged to allow access by you to your Personal Information if:
we reasonably believe that giving access would pose a serious threat to the life, health or safety of an individual, or to public health or public safety;
giving access would have an unreasonable impact on the privacy of other individuals;

the information relates to existing or anticipated legal proceedings between you and us and would not ordinarily be accessible by the discovery process in such proceedings;
giving access would reveal our intentions in relation to negotiations with you in a way that would prejudice those negotiations;
giving access would be unlawful;
denying access is required or authorised by or under an Australian law or a court or tribunal order;
we have reason to suspect that unlawful activity or misconduct of a serious nature relating to our functions or activities has been, is being, or may be engaged in and giving access would be likely to prejudice the taking of appropriate action in relation to the matter;
giving access would be likely to prejudice one or more enforcement related activities conducted by, or on behalf of, an enforcement body; or
giving access would reveal internal evaluative information in connection with a commercially sensitive decision-making process.
If you make a request for access to Personal Information, we will respond to your request within a reasonable period of time, and give access to the information in the manner requested if the request is deemed by us to be reasonable and practicable.
If we refuse to give access to any Personal Information requested because of an exception, or because the request is deemed to not be reasonable or practicable due to the manner in which the Personal Information is sought, or for another other reason, we will:
provide you with a written notice that sets out our reasons for the refusal (to the extent that it is reasonable to do so); and
refer you to complaint mechanisms available to you if you wish to complain about the refusal.
We request that you keep your Personal Information as current as possible. If you believe that information about you is not accurate or your details have or are about to change, you can:
call us on 1300 565 846 and request that we correct or update your Personal Information; or
request in writing that we correct or update your personal information by sending a request addressed to the Privacy Officer using the contact details below.

Nothing in this Privacy Policy replaces other informal or legal procedures by which you can be provided with access to Personal Information.
SECURITY + PROTECTION
We will take all reasonable steps to protect the Personal Information that we hold about you from misuse, loss or unauthorised access and disclosure.
You acknowledge that the security of communications sent by electronic means or by post, or stored electronically, cannot be guaranteed. We do not accept responsibility for misuse, loss or unauthorised access to your Personal Information where the security of information is not within our control.
If you suspect any misuse or loss of your Personal Information please contact us immediately.
