Privacy Policy
Share Select supports and abides by the following ten National Privacy Principles
(“NPPs”) outlined in the Privacy Act and is committed to implementing and promoting
a privacy policy which will ensure the privacy and security of your personal information.
The following section summarises our policies on the management of your personal
information.
Collecting personal information about you
Share Select will not collect or monitor any personal information about you without
your consent. The only personal information we collect is what you tell us about
yourself.
Using and disclosing your personal information
Share Select is committed to safeguarding your personal privacy. We recognise that
you have a right to control how your personal information is collected and used.
We know that providing personal information is an act of trust and we take that
seriously. Unless you directly give us consent to do otherwise, Share Select will
only collect and use your personal information for the purpose of providing you
with the products requested. We may contact you by mail, telephone or at your email
address, which you provide to us in order to provide you with information that may
be of interest about updates, new Share Select products and other matters which
may interest you. If you are receiving communications from Share Select and do not
wish to receive this information any longer, you may remove your name from our list
either by telephoning us on 1300 885280, emailing us at privacy@shareselect.com.au,
or you may also write to us. Please address your correspondence to: The Compliance
Manager, Suite 204, 20 McKillop Street, Melbourne, VIC, 3000. Please allow 2 weeks
for your request to be actioned.
Data quality of your personal information
Share Select will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information
is used and/or disclosed in an accurate, complete and up-to-date manner. We rely
upon the accuracy of the initial information that you have provided. Storage and
security of your personal information Share Select will also endeavour to take all
reasonable steps to keep secure any information that we hold about you and to protect
it from misuse and loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
Our employees and data processors are obliged to respect the confidentiality of
any personal information held by Share Select. We will take reasonable steps to
destroy or permanently de-identify your personal information if it is no longer
needed for any purpose for which the information was originally intended.
Openness
You are entitled to know what sort of personal information we hold, for what purposes
and how we collect, hold, use and disclose that information. You may at any time
request access to your personal information and we will (subject to the certain
exceptions) provide you with access to that information either by providing you
with copies of the information requested, allowing you to inspect the information
requested or providing you with an accurate summary of the information held.
Access to and correction of your personal information
In the event that you become aware, or believe, that any personal information which
we hold about you is inaccurate, incomplete or outdated, you may contact us and
provide to us evidence of the inaccuracy or incompleteness or outdatedness. We will,
if we agree that the information requires correcting, take all reasonable steps
to correct the information.
Client identifiers
Share Select does not use as a client identifier any number, code or other form
of identifier used by any agency or other external entity (e.g. your phone number).
Anonymity
You have the option of not identifying yourself when entering transactions with
Share Select wherever it is lawful and practicable. In most circumstances however,
it would not be practicable to not identify yourself.
Trans-border data flows
Share Select will not transfer personal information about you to someone who is
in a foreign country.
Sensitive information
Share Select will not collect sensitive information about you unless:
(a) You have consented; or
(b) The collection is required by law; or
(c) The collection is necessary to prevent or lessen a serious and imminent threat
to your life or health, in the case that you were physically or legally incapable
of giving consent or cannot communicate consent to the collection; or
(d) The collection is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of a
legal or equitable claim.
