Privacy and Security At FoneShop.com.au we understand that you value your
privacy and wish to have your personal information kept secure. Our Privacy
Policy describes generally how we manage your personal information and
safeguard your privacy. If you would like more information, please don't
hesitate to contact us.
The National Privacy Principles We are bound by and comply with the National
Privacy Principles, as provided in the Federal Privacy Act 1988.
Collecting Personal Information About You At FoneShop.com.au we only collect
personal information that is necessary for us to conduct our business as an
online provider of goods. The personal information we collect will include
information you give us when you place an order for the purchase of a good we
supply. We may also collect personal information about individuals who are not
customers of our business, but whose personal information is given to us by
those individuals or other people in the course of a transaction. This personal
information will include your name, address and contact details, and may
include other personal information about individuals we collect in the course
of a transaction. We may also collect some information from you when you use
our website www.FoneShop.com.au. Your use of the information and services
available through our website will determine the type of information that we
collect about you. The only personal information that we collect about you when
you use our website is what you tell us about yourself, for example, when you
complete an online form when placing an order, or information you provide to us
when you send us an email. Please note, we will record your email address if
you send us an email.
Using and Disclosing Your Personal Information We
respect your privacy. Any personal information that we collect about you will
be used and disclosed by us so that we can provide you with the services that
you have requested, or otherwise to enable us to carry out our business as
suppliers of goods.
Please be assured we will not disclose information about you unless the
disclosure is required or authorised by law, you have consented to our
disclosing the information about you, or for another purpose (related to the
primary purpose of collecting that information) that you would reasonably
expect. We may also use your personal information to provide you with
information about other services offered by us. However, the only information
that you must provide is your name and payment details (where applicable). If
you would prefer not to receive promotional or other material from us, please
let us know and we will respect your request. We do not engage in unsolicited
telephone or email marketing. In particular, if you are contacted by telephone
by an individual or organisation claiming to represent FoneShop.com.au - do not
purchase from the organisation as we have a strict policy against telephone
marketing.
Access to Your Personal Information In most cases you may have access to
personal information that we hold about you. We will handle requests for access
to your personal information in accordance with the National Privacy
Principles. We encourage all requests for access to your personal information
to be directed to the Privacy Officer by emailing us or by writing to us at our
postal address. We will deal with all requests for access to personal
information as quickly as possible. Requests for a large amount of information,
or information which is not currently in use, may require further time before a
response can be given. We may charge you a fee for access if a cost is incurred
by us in order to retrieve your information, but in no case will we charge you
a fee for your application for access. In some cases, we may refuse to give you
access to personal information we hold about you. This includes, but is not
limited to, circumstances where giving you access would: be unlawful (e.g.,
where a record which contains personal information about you is subject to a
claim for legal professional privilege by one of our clients); have an
unreasonable impact on other people's privacy; prejudice an investigation of
unlawful activity. We will also refuse access where the personal information
relates to existing or anticipated legal proceedings, and the information would
not be accessible by the process of discovery in those proceedings. If we
refuse to give you access we will provide you with reasons for our refusal.
Correcting Your Personal Information If you request us to do so we will amend
any personal information about you held by us which is inaccurate, incomplete
or out of date. If we disagree with your view about the accuracy, completeness
or currency of a record of your personal information held by us, and you ask us
to associate with that record a statement that you have a contrary view, we
will take reasonable steps to do so.
Securing and Storing Your Personal Information We are committed to maintaining
the confidentiality of the information that you provide us and we will take all
reasonable precautions to protect your personal information from unauthorised
use or alteration. In our business, personal information may be stored both
electronically (on our computer system) and in hard-copy form. Firewalls,
anti-virus software and email filters, as well as passwords, protect all our
electronic information. Likewise, we take all necessary measures to ensure the
security of hard-copy information.
Disposal of Personal Information Once your transaction is finalised, both the
electronic and hard-copy information is securely archived. After a period of 7
years both the electronic and hard-copy information is destroyed.
For more information or to complain about a breach of your privacy If you would
like more information about the way we manage personal information which we
hold about you, or are concerned that we may have breached your privacy, please
contact us by email, fax or post:
