This statement sets out our, Bluetongue Brewery’s, policies relating to your personal information.

Your personal information is important

Most private sector organisations in Australia must, by law, comply with the National Privacy Principles ("NPPs").  We will comply with all laws, including the NPPs, introduced to protect your privacy and have implemented a companywide program to ensure compliance by our employees.

Collecting and using information

The only personal information we collect about you is what you tell us about yourself when you fill in a form, send us an e-mail, enter a competition or speak to one of our representatives.  This information may include your name, e-mail and mailing addresses, contact numbers and date of birth. We will record your e-mail address if you send us an e-mail, and it will only be used for the purpose for which you have provided it.  We also collect information obtained as a result of credit checks that you authorise us to carry out.
We use your personal information for the purpose for which it has been provided.  This may include using your personal information for the following purposes:
▪ to provide you with the products or services you requested;
▪ to assess your application for the provision of credit;
▪ to assess your application for employment; or
▪ to accept your application to participate in promotions or competitions run by us.
We may also use it to tell you about other products and services of Bluetongue Brewery.  We will not sell any personally identifiable information that you give us to any third party.
We use technology to collect information about traffic through our Internet site.  However, we cannot identify you from that information.  We use the information gathered to make the site more user-friendly and relevant for your needs.
 

Disclosure of information

We may disclose your personal information to third party organisations such as mailing and printing houses and IT providers. They may assist us in providing services to you, or provide them on our behalf.  In such cases we have taken steps to ensure that any third party access to personal information complies with the NPPs.  We will also disclose your personal information when we are required or authorised by law to do so.

Accuracy and security of your personal information

We take all reasonable steps to secure any personal information which we hold about you and to keep this information accurate and up-to-date. Personal information is stored either electronically or in hard copy and appropriate information security measures are in place to protect this information.
Our website does not provide facilities for the secure transmission of information across the Internet.  Users should be aware that there are inherent risks transmitting information across the Internet.
