We have adopted the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (the Privacy Act). The NPPs govern the way in which we collect, use, disclose, store, secure and dispose of your Personal Information.

0Personal Information is information or an opinion that identifies an individual. Through interacting with our website or engaging with us in business, we will collect a limited amount of Personal Information such as: names, addresses, email addresses and phone numbers. This Personal Information may be obtained in many ways including interviews, correspondence, conversations, email, via our website, from your website, from media and publications and from publicly available sources and from third parties. We don’t guarantee website links or policy of third parties.
We collect your Personal Information for the primary purpose of providing our services to you. We currently do not have a periodic email marketing list, but if we were to introduce one, we would ensure subscription was ‘opt-in’ and subscribers could unsubscribe at any time via an email link to our system.
When we collect Personal Information we will, where appropriate and where possible, explain to you why we are collecting the information and how we plan to use it.
Sensitive information is defined in the Privacy Act to include information or opinion about such things as an individual's racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, membership of a political association, religious or philosophical beliefs, membership of a trade union or other professional body, criminal record or health information.
Sensitive information will be used by us only:
• for the primary purpose for which it was obtained
• for a secondary purpose that is directly related to the primary purpose
• with your consent; or where required or authorised by law.
Your Personal Information is stored in a manner that reasonably protects it from misuse and loss, and from unauthorized access, modification or disclosure.
When your Personal Information is no longer needed for the purpose for which it was obtained, we will take reasonable steps to destroy or permanently de-identify your Personal Information. However, most of the Personal Information is or will be stored in client files which will be kept by us for a minimum of 7 years.
You may access the Personal Information we hold about you and to update and/or correct it, subject to certain exceptions. If you wish to access your Personal Information, please contact us in writing.
Landcraft Permaculture will not charge any fee for your access request but may charge an administrative fee for providing a copy of your Personal Information.
In order to protect your Personal Information, we may require identification from you before releasing the requested information.
It is an important to us that your Personal Information is up to date. We will take reasonable steps to make sure that your Personal Information is accurate, complete and up-to-date.
