8. Who do we disclose your personal information to?

   We may disclose your personal information to:

   • other companies who provide services on our behalf, including but not limited to customer freight shipping, hosting, data storage, payment systems, printing and scanning providers and debt collectors.  We will only disclose to them the personal information they need to deliver their services to us.  Compu-Stor takes reasonable steps to ensure that confidentiality and privacy obligations bind these companies in relation to the protection of your personal information;
   • to companies that promote and market, or conduct research to help us improve and target, our products and services;
   • to social media sites on which we have a presence (LinkedIn and Facebook); and
   • where we are required or authorised to do so by law.

 

9. Do we disclose your information overseas?

   When making international deliveries, we will need to disclose limited personal information such as contact details and delivery address to providers of freight shipping services who may be located overseas for business related purposes. Such overseas recipients may not be bound by the Privacy Act. We will only disclose your personal information on receipt of your consent. Upon granting your consent, you acknowledge that by consenting to Compu-Stor disclosing your personal information to overseas recipients, APP 8.1 will not apply to the disclosure. This means that we will not be required to take reasonable steps in the circumstances to ensure that the overseas recipient does not breach the APPs in relation to that personal information; and as a result we may not be liable under the Privacy Act if the overseas recipient does not act consistently with the APPs.

 

10. How do we hold your personal information and keep it secure?

    All Compu-Stor employees must comply with our security requirements including signing a deed of confidentiality when they join us.  They are highly trained in all aspects of privacy and confidentiality in relation to protecting personal information we collect and hold.

    We take all reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we hold is protected from misuse, interference and loss, and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure by the use of various methods.  Given the nature of the services we provide, all of the information contained in documents we store is kept in highly restricted, swipe card access warehouses that can only be entered by authorised personnel.  We maintain a secure, temperature controlled vault and operate CCTV cameras inside and outside our premises.

    We also hold personal information in electronic files.  We may store it with one or more third party data storage providers (and we require them to keep all information secure and only process it for the purpose for which it was provided).  We provide a secure server environment to back up data.  Our computers are password protected and we have SSL and firewalls in place.

    We may combine personal information we receive about you with other information we hold about you.  This includes information received from third parties.

    When we no longer require or are required to keep the personal information we hold, we securely destroy it in a secure destruction facility if it is contained in hard copy and we issue destruction certificates.  We permanently delete electronic copies from our system.

    Please contact us immediately if you become aware or have reason to believe there has been any unauthorised use of your personal information that we hold.

    Part IIIC of the Privacy Act established the Notifiable Data Breaches Scheme (NDB scheme) in Australia.  The NDB scheme sets out obligations for notifying affected individuals, and the Australian Information Commissioner (Commissioner), about a data breach which is likely to result in serious harm.

    Where serious harm to affected individuals is likely, we will notify those individuals and the Commissioner in accordance with our legal obligations. You may contact our Privacy Officer (details below) should you require additional information.

 

11. How can you seek access to, and correction of your information?

    Access: You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, subject to some exceptions under the Privacy Act. We may be bound by obligations of confidentiality to our clients that prevent us from disclosing personal information. You can seek access by contacting us at any time at the contact details below.  You may be required to put your request in writing for security reasons and we will need to verify your identity before we can give you access.

    We will promptly acknowledge receipt, and we will endeavour to deal with and respond to your request within a reasonable time (usually within 5 business days) and give you access in the manner requested if possible, depending on our security protocols.

    If we refuse your request for any reason, we will explain our decision in writing, and how you can complain if you are not satisfied with our decision.

    You will not be charged for making a request for your personal information.  However, we may charge a fee to search for and provide your information based on costs incurred. We will inform you of any fee at the time your request is made to cover these costs.

    Correction: If you wish to update your personal information or if you believe that any personal information we hold about you is inaccurate, incomplete, out-of-date or irrelevant, you may ask us to correct it.  We may ask you to put your request in writing for security purposes and we will need to identify you.  We will take reasonable steps to correct it unless we disagree with your reasons.  If we refuse to correct your personal information we will give you a written explanation why.  All updates to the information we hold in our on-line management system is audited.

 

12. How long will we keep your personal information?

    We will keep your personal information only for as long as required for our business purposes and otherwise as required by Australian law.

    Where we no longer need to keep your personal information in accordance with this clause 12, we will take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify your personal information.

    If you wish to have your personal information destroyed or de-identified, please let us know and we will take reasonable steps to do so (unless we need to keep it for legal, auditing or internal risk management reasons, or as otherwise required by law).

 

13. How can you seek further information or complain about a breach of your privacy?

    If you believe Compu-Stor has handled your personal information in a way that is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy or breaches your rights, you can make a complaint.  Please put your complaint in writing with sufficient details to enable to us understand your complaint.  Our State Manager will be responsible for investigating your complaint and you will receive an initial response from us in 48 hours.  We will notify you of our final decision in relation to the complaint and our proposed resolution, as soon as practicable after it is received.
