Privacy Policy

 

In this Privacy Policy "we" and "us" refer to Pink Dollar Brokers ACN 91 338 350 679 and its associated entities, and "our" has a similar meaning.

 

Your privacy is important to us. In this Privacy Policy we set out the principles which apply to any personal information which we collect about you (whether from you or from other sources).

 

We do NOT sell or disclose your personal information to others for the purpose of allowing them to direct market their products and services.

 

There are some matters to which this policy does not apply. These are referred to below (see section 7).

 

1. Personal Information which we collect and hold

1.1 Depending on the services you require, the kinds of personal information which we collect and hold include:

• your name, address and contact details;

• email address

 

1.2 Anonymity and using pseudonyms

You are not obliged to give us your personal information and you may choose to deal with us anonymously or by use of a pseudonym. If you would like to access our services on an anonymous basis or if you use a pseudonym we will take reasonable steps to comply with your request where this is practical, however:

• (a) you may not be able to take advantage of some of our services

• (b) where we can provide the services, you will need to pay for our services before they are provided.

 

2. How we collect and hold personal information

2.1 How we collect personal information

We generally collect your personal information directly from you. For example, you may provide us with your personal information via our website, over the phone, in correspondence (whether by letter, fax or email), at one of our branches or when we attend premises to provide services. We may also collect personal information:

• if you apply for services to be provided on account or if you are a supplier or providing a guarantee for services to be provided on account or in relation to a supplier arrangement – in addition to information provided directly from you, we may collect personal information in accordance with any authority and consent which you provide and we may also collect information from publically available registers (eg ASIC);

• if you are applying for a position with Pink Dollar Brokers – in addition to information provided directly from you (including via our online recruitment process), we may collect personal information from employment agencies, through publically available online sources (eg LinkedIn); we may also collect personal information in accordance with any methods agreed by you during the recruitment process.

 

In some cases we may collect personal information from other persons (eg a family member requesting the provision of services). In these cases the other person must ensure that they have obtained your permission to give us the information and for us to collect, use and disclose such information as described in this Privacy Policy. They must also let you know about this Privacy Policy. However, we will inform you of the collection of that information as soon as reasonably practicable after collection by contacting you to discuss the service they have requested on your behalf.

 

If you do not provide the information requested, we may not be able either to provide you with appropriate services or to fulfil another applicable purpose of collection.

 

2.2 How we hold personal information

We may hold personal information electronically or in paper or hard copy. If you have contacted our sales centre or if our sales centre contacts you, the call may be recorded and backed-up.

 

We take reasonable security measures to safeguard your personal information. This includes implementing data security safeguards based upon generally accepted industry standards to protect personal information from unauthorised access, use, disclosure, alteration, or loss.

 

2.3 Destruction

We will destroy or de-identify your personal information if the purpose for which we collected the personal information from you no longer exists or applies. We will also destroy or de‑identify any unsolicited personal information if we decide that would not have collected it in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

For example:

• to provide a quote or negotiate providing services to you or an organisation you represent;

• to enable us to provide you with services;

• if applicable, to conduct any appropriate checks required to facilitate the provision of services on account or to engage you as supplier, including any appropriate on-going checks;

• to administer and manage the services we provide including our Statutory guarantees or additional warranties we offer;

• we may ask you to participate in surveys on how we can improve our services, or we may ask you to complete a customer satisfaction survey.

 

3.2 Email and Text

Each time you request us to provide you with services, we may send you an email, a SMS or call you by telephone to verify the order and confirm details of the goods or services requested and otherwise for the purposes of communication with you in relation to any goods or services you may have requested. We also may send to you email communications from time to time regarding any technical, administrative or legal notices, our products and service that we consider essential. As these are not commercial electronic messages, you are not able to unsubscribe from these notices.
