2.2. Why do we use “cookies” and other web use tracking technologies?
(a) We do not automatically collect personally identifiable information about you (personal information).
(b) General information about visits to our Website is collected by our computer servers through “cookies” (small files containing a unique identification (ID) number that our Website transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser to be stored in the cache of your computer).
(c) The “cookies” that are shared with your computer can’t be used to discover any personal information such as your name, address or email address. The anonymous non-personal information that we collect and analyse via “cookies” is not personal information as described in the Privacy Act.
(d) We collect information using “cookies” and other tracking technologies for the following reasons:
- to help us monitor the performance of our Website so that we can improve the operation of the Website and the services we offer;
- to recognise your computer when you next visit our Website to provide personalised services to each user of our Website to make their navigation through our Website easier and more rewarding to the user; and
- to log the internet protocol address (IP address) of visitors to our Website so that we can work out the countries in which the computers are located.
(e) If you are unhappy about having “cookies” sent to you, you can set your browser to refuse cookies or choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent. However, if you turn your cookies off, our Website or some of our Services may not function properly.
2.3. How do we store your information?
(a) We use different technologies and procedures to help protect personal information from unauthorised access, loss, alternation, disclosure or use. Some of the safeguards we use are physical access controls, anti-virus software and access authorisation controls to where your personal information is held. Our commitment to data security means:
- we have procedures to limit access to personal information within our organisation;
- we use security measures and technologies within our organisation to protect your personal information; and
- we use service providers that can establish that they have secure controls relating to software security, access security and network security, including where personal information is being transferred.
(b) The Website is not hosted in Australia. For that reason, we transfer all data on the Website (including all personal information) to our hosting service provider in the United States of America. In addition, web traffic information we collect, such as data collected by Google Analytics may be stored overseas.
(c) By submitting your personal information to us, you expressly agree and consent to the disclosure, transfer, storing or processing of your personal information outside of Australia. In providing this consent, you understand and acknowledge that countries outside Australia do not always have the same privacy protection obligations as Australia in relation to personal information. We will take steps to ensure that your information is used by third parties securely and in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy. However, by providing your consent, under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), we are not required to take all steps as may be reasonable in the circumstances.
2.4. How long do we keep your personal information?
We are obligated to keep certain personal information for a minimum period of 7 years. However, we will take steps to de-identify or delete any personal information once it is no longer necessary and/or we are no longer obligated to keep it.
2.5. Direct Marketing
- You give your express and informed consent to us using your personal information to provide you with information and to tell you about our products, services or events or any other direct marketing activity (including third party products, services, and events) which we consider may be of interest to you, whether by post, email, SMS, messaging applications and telephone (Direct Marketing Communications). In addition, we may send you occasional company news and information about other products and services or special promotional offers of our affiliated companies. If at any time you would like to stop receiving future commercial messages from us, you may do so by using the “unsubscribe” facility included in the Direct Marketing Communication.
2.6. The Notifiable Data Breaches Scheme
(a) In accordance with the NDB scheme, we will notify you and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) about any ‘eligible data breaches’ that affect you. An eligible data breach occurs when the following criteria are met:
- There is unauthorised access to or disclosure of personal information held by an entity (or information is lost in circumstances where unauthorised access or disclosure is likely to occur).
- This is likely to result in serious harm to any of the individuals to whom the information relates.
- The entity has been unable to prevent the likely risk of serious harm with remedial action.
(b) If it is not clear if a suspected data breach meets these criteria, we will conduct an investigation to determine whether the breach is an ‘eligible data breach’ that triggers notification obligations.
2.7. How can you access the personal information that we collect?
(a) We are happy to provide you with details of personal information held about you.
(b) To access this information, you need to email us at cryptocallsempire@gmail.com.
