How We Collect, Hold and Use Personal Information

• 1. Collection We will collect your personal information directly from you unless it is unreasonable or impracticable to do so, and will limit the personal information we collect to that which is reasonably necessary for our functions or activities. The personal information about you we may collect and hold includes but is not limited to your name and address, contact telephone number(s) and/or email address(es). We may also hold other personal information that you volunteer to us. We may collect this information when: o you attend a NuevoTech function, event, training course or demonstration; o you request brochures, newsletters or other information via our website; o you log a support call to our help desk; and/or o your organisation appears relevant to a NuevoTech activity, function or event, and the information is readily available.


• 2. We do not generally collect (or, if it is provided by you to us, retain) any sensitive information about you. When collecting your personal information, we will take reasonable steps to make you aware of the purposes for which we are collecting it, the types of organisations to which we would usually disclose it, whether we are likely to disclose it to overseas recipients (and where practicable the countries in which they are located), whether there are laws or court/tribunal orders which require or authorise us to collect it, and the main consequences for you if you fail to provide it to us. This Privacy Policy provides these details as they typically apply in most cases, however different details may apply depending on our specific interaction with you. If we do not notify you of such other details, the information in this Privacy Policy applies. If you fail to provide personal information requested by us, there may be a range of consequences, for example we may be unable to process or respond to your request. There will not usually be Australian laws or court/tribunal orders which require or authorise us to collect your personal information.


• 3. Use We will generally only use your personal information for the purpose for which we collected it, and for related purposes we consider would be within your reasonable expectations. We generally use your personal information to: o provide the service requested, respond to your enquiries, send you information that you request, or otherwise achieve the purpose for which the information was submitted to us; o provide you with information related to activities, events or projects we consider likely to be of interest to you that relate to products and services we supply; o enable your involvement in promotions and other activities you participate in; o seek feedback from you and perform market research; o streamline and personalise your experience on our website, or tailor our information, services or products; o create aggregate data about our visitors and other statistics to allow for more efficient operation of our website; and/or o engage in other activities where required or permitted by law.


• 4. We may use personal information to contact you for marketing and promotional purposes (such as to provide you with information about our products and services, special offers and promotions). You may request not to receive these communications by contacting our Privacy Officer (see section 10 below), or by using the opt out function provided for in those communications. If you do not opt out in either of these ways you will be taken to have consented to receiving such communications from us. There are no consequences of opting out of receiving our marketing and promotional communications except that you will no longer receive them, and you may elect to rejoin our marketing list at a later stage if you wish. Where we propose to use your personal information for another purpose other than as outlined above, we will seek your permission (unless we are required or permitted by law to do so without seeking consent).


• 5. Storage We will take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from misuse, interference and loss as well as unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. For example, information stored on our computer network is protected by the system design, security access policies and procedures. We undertake regular monitoring of our practices and systems to ensure the effectiveness of our security policies and identify and implement improvements where appropriate. We will endeavour to destroy or de-identify your personal information as soon as it is no longer required by us (where permitted by law).

Access to and Correction of Personal Information

You may contact us to request access to or correction of the personal information about you that we hold. We may refuse to allow access or to amend your personal information if we are legally required or entitled to do so. If we do so, we will provide you with written reasons for the refusal (unless it is unreasonable to do so) together with information about the options available to complain about the refusal.

We may require you to pay certain costs in order to access your personal information held by us. We will advise the amount payable (if any) once we have assessed your application for access. We will not however charge a fee for you to lodge a request for access to or correction of your personal information.

If you lodge a request for access to your personal information, we may fulfil that request within any of a range of ways (for example, by supplying you with a copy of that personal information or providing you with the opportunity to inspect our records). We may require you to comply with certain procedures before we allow access to or amendment of your personal information to ensure the integrity and security of information that we hold. Depending on the nature of your request, this may include completing a personal information request form or otherwise verifying your identity to our satisfaction.

We will take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information that we collect is accurate, up-to-date and complete and the personal information we use and disclose is accurate, up-to-date, complete and relevant. If we are satisfied that any personal information we hold about you is inaccurate, out-of-date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading, we will amend our records accordingly. Please notify us if your personal details change so that we may keep our records current.

Disclosure of Personal Information to Other Organisations and Overseas

We will generally only disclose your personal information for the purpose for which we collected it, and for related purposes we consider would be within your reasonable expectations.

• certain contractors or subcontractors of ours that provide administrative or promotional services (for example, mail processing businesses, printers, market research companies or other service providers). We generally ensure such organisations are contractually required to ensure that information we disclose is used only for the limited purposes for which we provide it;
• members of our corporate group of NuevoTech entities. We may disclose your personal information to overseas recipients if it is required to fulfil the purpose for which we collected it, in which case we must take reasonable steps to ensure that the overseas recipient does not breach the Australian Privacy Principles as required by Australian Privacy Principle 8.
