Privacy Policy

1 . Privacy Act

Aurora Capital Markets Pty Ltd (ABN 63 165 534 958) and its Australian related bodies corporate (we, us, our) are organisations and “APP Entities” for the purposes of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Act) and are bound by the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained in the Act.  We understand that your privacy is important, and we are committed to safeguarding personal information that we handle about individuals.  This Privacy Policy describes generally how we manage this personal information and protect privacy, including how we comply with the Act and the APPs.

This Privacy Policy is intended to provide a general overview of our policies in respect of the handling of your personal information.  “Personal information” is essentially information or an opinion about an identified or reasonably identifiable individual.

This Privacy Policy is intended to cover most personal information handled by us but is not exhaustive.  Other policies may override or complement this Privacy Policy in certain circumstances.  For example, when we collect personal information from you, we may advise a specific purpose for collecting that personal information, in which case we will handle your personal information in accordance with that purpose.  If you have any queries about our handling of your personal information, please contact us for further information using the contact information below or using the contact form on our website.

 

2  . Collection of personal information

We may collect your personal information throughout the course of your interaction with us (for example, if you register your interest for our services, request our services, subscribe to any mailing list we operate, fill out an online contact form, engage with our online marketing or submit an enquiry to us).  The personal information that we may collect and hold about you depends on your dealings with us.  Generally, we may collect:

  • your name and address, email address and telephone number;
  • payment details if you acquire paid services from us;
  • business details of you or the organisation you represent; and
  • other personal information that we require or that you volunteer to us.

Generally speaking, we collect personal information so that we can provide our services to you and ensure that you have convenient access to our products and services.

We will collect your personal information directly from you unless it is unreasonable or impracticable to do so.  If circumstances require, we may collect personal information about you from third parties (such as your employers, representatives or personal referees) or publicly available resources.  All personal information we collect is limited to that which is reasonably necessary for our functions or activities.

We receive any personal information that you provide to us about third parties on the understanding that we have the relevant individual’s consent for us to collect and handle their personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

When collecting your personal information, we will take reasonable steps to make you aware of the purposes for which we are collecting it, the types of organisations to which we would usually disclose it, whether we are likely to disclose it to overseas recipients (and where practicable the countries in which they are located), whether there are laws or court/tribunal orders which require or authorise us to collect it, and the main consequences for you if you fail to provide it to us.  This Privacy Policy provides these details as they typically apply in most cases, however different details may apply depending on our specific interaction with you.  If we do not notify you of such other details, the information in this Privacy Policy applies.

If you fail to provide personal information requested by us, or if the personal information you supply is incorrect or incomplete, there may be a range of consequences, for example we may be unable to process or respond to your request or provide services to you.  There will not usually be Australian laws or court/tribunal orders which require or authorise us to collect your personal information.

We do not generally collect sensitive information.  If we do collect sensitive information (which may include race, ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union memberships or details of health or disability) from you, we will only do so with your consent and if the information is reasonably necessary for one of our functions or activities.  We will assume you have consented to us collecting, using and disclosing (in accordance with this Privacy Policy) all information that you provide to us, including any sensitive information, unless you tell us otherwise at the time of collection.
