Surveys and Competitions

From time to time our site requests information from users via surveys or competitions. Participation in these surveys or competitions is completely voluntary and the user, therefore, has a choice whether or not to disclose any information requested. Information requested may include contact information (such as name and delivery address) and demographic information (such as postcode and age). Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the functionality of the site.

Use of your personal information

We use your information to provide our service to you. We also use it to improve our service and to notify you of opportunities that we think you might be interested in. We do not provide your information to third parties, except that we may provide your information to our business partners who assist us in the provision of our services to you.

Disclosure of your personal information overseas

We are not likely to disclose your personal information to recipients in any overseas country.

Security of your personal information

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information. However, we are not liable for any unauthorised access to this information.

Access to your personal information

You can access and update your personal information by contacting us or calling 02 9876 1300. We may charge a reasonable administration fee for this access.

If you have any complaints about our privacy practices, please feel free to send in details of your complaints to the CEO, Suite 1.02, 38 Oxley St, St Leonards NSW 2065. We take complaints very seriously and will respond shortly after receiving written notice of your complaint.
