The collection of sensitive information is restricted by the Privacy Act. Sensitive information includes (for example) health information and information about a person’s professional or trade association or trade union membership. The Company will not collect sensitive information about an individual unless this is necessary for one of the Company’s functions or activities and the individual has consented to that collection, or we are otherwise required or authorised by or under law to do so.

If the Company is unable to collect personal information from or about you, it may not be able to do business with you or the organisation with which you are connected.

We will generally provide you with access to your personal information. Depending on the amount of information requested, the Company may charge an access fee to cover the cost of retrieving the information and supplying it to you.
