CPV Website Privacy Policy
We respect and protect your privacy
Thank you for visiting the CPV website and reviewing our privacy policy. We have created this Privacy Policy in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to your privacy.
Your access and use of this site is conditional on your acceptance of this Privacy Policy. Your continued use of this site indicates your consent to the collection and use by us of any personal information you provide whilst using the website.
We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy from time to time. Amendment will be effective immediately upon notification on this website. Your continued use of the website following such notification will represent an agreement by you to be bound by the Privacy Policy as amended.
Collection
We will collect personal information from you only by lawful and fair means and not in an unreasonably intrusive way. If it is reasonable and practicable to do so, we will collect personal information about you, only from you. We will take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we collect from or about you is accurate, complete and up to date whenever it is used, collected or disclosed.
Purpose for collection and use of personal information
We will not collect personal information unless the information is necessary for one or more of our functions or activities. Generally speaking, the purpose of collection of personal information will be conveyed to you at the time of collection.
Unless you instruct us otherwise, we may collect and use your personal information for inclusion in our database and directory of CPV members which enables individuals using the website to locate and obtain details of CPV members.
In addition we may collect and use your personal information in order to:
- deliver and improve the services provided by us;
- administer and manage service offerings;
- send news and information about our activities, developments in the industry and general promotional material which we believe may be useful to you;
- monitor who is accessing the website or using services offered on the website.
We may use or disclose personal information about you for any other purpose with your consent or otherwise as required by law.
How do we keep your personal information secure?
We will take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is protected from misuse, loss and unauthorized access, modification or disclosure otherwise than in accordance with this Privacy Policy. However, the open nature of the internet is such that information exchanged via the internet may be accessed and used by people other than those for whom the data is intended.
Accessing and checking the personal information we hold about you
You are entitled to access your personal information. We will provide you with access to your personal information upon request unless providing access would have an unreasonable impact upon the privacy of other individuals, or in circumstances where we are otherwise entitled or required to withhold access by law.
Where providing access to your personal information would reveal evaluative information generated within our organization in connection with a commercially sensitive decision making process, we may give you an explanation for the commercially sensitive decision rather than direct access to the information.
If we are not required by law to provide access to your personal information we may, if reasonable, consider whether the use of a mutually agreed intermediary would allow sufficient access to meet the needs of both parties.
If we hold personal information about you and you are able to establish that the information is not accurate, complete and up-to-date, we will take reasonable steps to correct the information so that is accurate complete and up to date.
If we disagree about whether the information is accurate, complete and up to date, and you ask us to associate with the information a statement claiming that the information is not accurate, complete or up to date, we will take reasonable steps to do so.
There may be some costs to you to cover the cost of retrieving and processing the information.
All requests for access to or correction of your personal information must be in writing to the Australian Property Institute, 6 Campion Street, Deakin ACT 2600.
