Personal Information Collected
We only collect personal information that is necessary for our functions and activities. We will not collect personal information in an unfair, unlawful or unreasonably intrusive manner.
In general, we try to collect personal information directly from individuals, however there are certain situations in which we may collect personal information about individuals from someone else. In either case, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that the individual is aware of the purposes for which the information is collected. In certain circumstances we may collect sensitive information such as health situation. We will only collect this information with the individual’s consent or otherwise in accordance with the law.
Use and Disclosure of Information
We will generally use and disclose personal information only for purposes related to the main purpose for which the information was collected, or where the individual has consented to the use or disclosure. We will only disclose personal information to a third party service provider on a confidential basis and if required so that the service provider can effectively provide those services.
Accessing and Updating Information
If an individual needs to access or correct any personal information we hold about them, they may contact us by email to info@waluwin.com.au. Individuals should provide as much detail as possible about the particular information sought, in order to help us retrieve it. An access fee may be charged to cover our costs of providing the information.
In certain circumstances, we may not be required by law to allow access to or correction of personal information. If that is the case, we will provide our reasons for that decision. We always take reasonable steps to make sure that the personal information we collect, use and disclose is accurate, complete and up-to-date.
