101 Collins Street Pty Ltd (ABN 98 008 636 404) (“101 Collins Street”) respects the privacy of personal information. This Privacy Policy sets out our personal information management practices.
Throughout this Privacy Policy, we refer to your personal information which means information which identifies you as an individual or from which your identity can be reasonably ascertained. Your name and address are examples of personal information. Personal information does not include information about corporate entities.
101 Collins Street is bound by the National Privacy Principles under the Privacy Act 1988 and other laws which protect your privacy. 101 Collins Street sometimes handles personal information relying on exemptions under these laws, for example in relation to:
- employee records;
- related bodies corporate; and
- provision of services to State or Territory authorities.
Any permitted handling of personal information under such exemptions will take priority over this Privacy Policy to the extent of any inconsistency.
We must only collect personal information that is necessary for our functions and activities. There are certain situations in which we may collect personal information about you from someone other than you. For example, we may collect personal information about job applicants from recruitment agencies and referees. In either case, we will take any steps required by law to ensure that you are aware of the purposes for which the information is collected.
In certain circumstances we may collect sensitive information such as health information or membership of professional associations. We will only collect this information when you provide it voluntarily, consent to us collecting it or as otherwise authorised by law.
We use and disclose your personal information for purposes related to the main purpose for which the information was collected, where you have consented to the use or disclosure, or where otherwise authorised by law.
These purposes may include carrying out or responding to your requests, improving our services, communicating with you, assessing your suitability for positions with 101 Collins Street, or any other purposes outlined at the time you provide the information. We may not be able to do these things without your personal information. For example, we may not be able to contact you or offer employment to you.
We may provide personal information about you to:
- service providers who assist us in providing our services and operating our business, including, but not limited to, archival, research, mail and delivery, auditing, recruitment, payroll, superannuation, insurance, management consulting, financial and legal advisory, banking, security and technology services in their capacity as service providers to 101 Collins Street;
- where relevant, prospective employers and recruitment agencies who request verbal or written references in relation to current or former 101 Collins Street personnel; and
- other third parties where required or authorised by law, which may include emergency situations and assisting government agencies.
To make a request to access or correct any personal information we hold about you, please contact us using the details set out in Further information below. We ask that you provide us with as much detail as you can about the particular information you seek, in order to help us retrieve it. An access fee may be charged where permitted by law. In certain circumstances, we may not be required by law to provide you with access or to correct your personal information. If that is the case, we will give you our reasons for that decision.
We take reasonable steps to make sure that the personal information we collect, use and disclose is accurate, complete and up-to-date.
Irrespective of whether personal information is stored electronically or in hard copy form, we must take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse and loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
