It also enables us to keep track of services you view so that, if you consent, we can send you news about those services.

We may log IP addresses (that is, the electronic addresses of computers connected to the internet) to analyse trends, administer the website, track users’ movements, and gather broad demographic information.
Security
As our website is linked to the internet, and the internet is inherently insecure, we cannot provide any assurance regarding the security of transmission of information you communicate to us online. We also cannot guarantee that the information you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted over the internet. Accordingly, any personal information or other information which you transmit to us online is transmitted at your own risk.

We provide links to websites outside of our website, as well as to third party websites.

We may send you direct marketing communications and information about our services that we consider may be of interest to you. These communications may be sent in various forms, including mail, SMS, fax and email, in accordance with applicable marketing laws, such as the Australian Spam Act 2003 (Cth) and the New Zealand Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act 2007. If you indicate a preference for a method of communication, we will endeavour to use that method whenever practical to do so. In addition, at any time you may opt-out of receiving marketing communications from us by contacting us (see the details below) or by using opt-out facilities provided in the marketing communications and we will then ensure that your name is removed from our mailing list.
We do not provide your personal information to other organisations for the purposes of direct marketing.

11. Security and data quality
We take reasonable steps to ensure your personal information is protected from misuse and loss and
from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
We strive to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of personal information that you submit to us
through our website. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be
totally secure. We endeavour to take all reasonable steps to protect the personal information you may
transmit to us or from our online products and services. Once we do receive your transmission, we
will also make our best efforts to ensure its security on our systems.
In addition, our employees and the contractors who provide services related to our information
systems are obliged to respect the confidentiality of any personal information held by us.
We may hold your information in either electronic or hard copy form. Personal information is
destroyed or de-identified when no longer needed or when we are no longer required by law to retain
it (whichever is the later).
12. How can you access and correct your personal information?
You may request access to any personal information we hold about you at any time by contacting us
(see the details below). Where we hold information that you are entitled to access, we will try to
provide you with suitable means of accessing it (for example, by mailing or emailing it to you). We
may charge you a reasonable fee to cover our administrative and other reasonable costs in providing
the information to you. We will not charge for simply making the request and will not charge for
making any corrections to your personal information.
There may be instances where we cannot grant you access to the personal information we hold. For
example, we may need to refuse access if granting access would interfere with the privacy of others
or if it would result in a breach of confidentiality. If that happens, we will give you written reasons for
any refusal.
If you believe that personal information we hold about you is incorrect, incomplete or inaccurate, then
you may request us to amend it. We will consider if the information requires amendment. If we do
not agree that there are grounds for amendment, then we will add a note to the personal information
stating that you disagree with it.
