CREATE Foundation Privacy Statement

CREATE manages the collection, security, quality, use and disclosure of any personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). Please read this Privacy Statement carefully to understand how your personal information will be treated by CREATE. By using this web site, you consent to the uses mentioned.

Collection and Use of Personal Information

You can navigate through this web site without telling us who you are or revealing any information that personally identifies you ("Personal Information").

There may be times, however, when we may need this information from you, such as when you want to share stories, news and blogs with other CREATE website users. Such forms may request Personal Information such as your name, age, email address, mobile phone number (so we can contact you if you allow us to).

CREATE does not collect information about anyone's ethnic origins, political or religious beliefs, sexual preferences or criminal record.

CREATE will use your Personal Information to reply to your inquiries and requests for information. We may also use this information to provide you with updated information on CREATE programs or events, to alert you to special workshops organised by CREATE or to conduct surveys for research purposes.

If you do not wish CREATE to use your Personal Information for these limited purposes, please let us know via email to news@create.org.au or by calling our toll free number 1800 655 105.

Information Disclosure

CREATE does not rent, sell or give away the information we collect from you.

CREATE employs other companies to perform certain functions on our behalf such as sending mail, providing marketing assistance and processing credit card payments. Such agents have access to the personal information necessary to perform their functions but may not use this information for other purposes.

CREATE may only disclose Personal Information when required or authorised to do so by law or when such action is necessary or appropriate (for example, if CREATE reasonably believes that someone is in imminent danger of serious harm). In these exceptional circumstances, we reserve the right to disclose Personal Information to the appropriate authority at our discretion and without your consent.

Personal Information Protection

CREATE takes reasonable steps to protect your Personal Information from loss, misuse or alteration. As an additional safeguard, access to Personal Information is restricted only to the management and authorised employees of CREATE carrying out permitted business functions.

Accessing or Modifying Personal Information

If you believe that the information we have about you is not up-to-date, complete or accurate, or if you wish to review the Personal Information held about you by CREATE, please contact us. You have the right to request the correction of any information which relates to you and is inaccurate. If you would like CREATE to delete your Personal Information, please let us know and we will take all reasonable steps to delete it unless we are required by law to keep it.
