PRIVACY STATEMENT

Central to the success of APAC Journey Pty Ltd is the commitment to our clients. We honour our obligation to respect and protect the privacy of the personal information of individuals with whom we deal, in accordance with the National Privacy Principles of the Privacy Amendment (Private Sector) Act 2000, which took effect in December 2001.

 

COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

The company will not collect personal information about an individual unless the information is necessary for one or more of the company's functions or activities. Collection of personal information will be by lawful and fair means and will not be obtained in any unreasonably intrusive way.

The company may collect personal information from individuals in writing, electronically or by telephone. Personal information may include an individual's name, address, credit card details and information about an individual's financial circumstances.

The company collects personal information for the purpose of performing its contracts with individuals, for assessing an individual's creditworthiness and for marketing the company services to its customers and prospective customers.

 The company discloses personal information to third parties such as freight forwarders for the purpose of carrying out its contract with you or where an individual's account is in default for the purpose of instructing a collection agent to recover the debt. Individuals can access any personal information held about them by the company by contacting the company's Privacy Officer whose details appear at the conclusion of this policy.

DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION

We do not give any outside organisations access to our client database. We will not sell or disclose personal information to other organisations for marketing purposes. We may disclose personal information to service providers who provide services in conjunction with our business, our insurers and organisations through which you choose to make payment to us. We may release information about you where you have consented to the disclosure, where there is a duty to the public to disclose that information or where we are required to by law.

We use a variety of physical and electronic security measures, including restricting physical access to our offices, firewalls, routers, network and host intrusion detection systems, appropriate encryption and secure databases. We will take reasonable steps to destroy or permanently de-identify personal information if it is no longer needed for any purpose.

 

ACCESS TO YOUR INFORMATION

You can access your personal information upon request. However, there are occasions where this access may be denied under the exemptions contained in the Act. If we deny access in some circumstances, we will advise you why.

 

QUALITY OF INFORMATION

We will take reasonable steps to ensure that the information that we collect use and disclose is accurate, complete and up to date. You can contact us and ask for its correction if you feel the information we have about you is inaccurate or incomplete.
