At our organization, ensuring the security and protection of the personal information we hold is of paramount importance to us. We have implemented various precautions to safeguard your data from any misuse, interference, loss, unauthorized access, modification, or disclosure.

To maintain the highest level of security for data transmission, our website utilizes SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption, ensuring that any data submitted through the website is safely transmitted and protected.

Access to personal information is strictly limited to authorized personnel on a “need-to-know” basis. Our employees undergo regular training on data privacy and security practices to ensure they handle personal information responsibly and securely.

We employ industry-standard anti-virus software to protect the devices we use for collecting, holding, using, and disclosing personal information. Additionally, these devices are secured with passwords and stored in a physically secure environment to prevent unauthorized access.

For data storage, we use secure cloud servers to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of the information. Any email communication containing personal data is encrypted to add an extra layer of protection.

Hard copies of personal information are stored in secure storage areas, accessible only to authorized personnel, further minimizing the risk of unauthorized access.

When discussing sensitive information, we take precautions to conduct conversations in private settings, where they cannot be overheard by unauthorized individuals.

Furthermore, as part of our commitment to data privacy, we have implemented a process to promptly delete or de-identify personal information when it is no longer needed for the purposes for which it was collected.

While we make every effort to maintain a secure website and business environment, it is essential to acknowledge that electronic communications and databases can be vulnerable to errors, tampering, and breaches. Despite our rigorous security measures, we cannot guarantee that such events will never occur.

In the unlikely event of a data breach that may result in harm to you, we are dedicated to fulfilling our obligations under the Privacy Act and related legislation. If such an incident occurs, we will notify you promptly to keep you informed about the situation.

Please rest assured that your privacy and the security of your personal information remain our utmost priority, and we continuously strive to enhance our security measures to protect your data effectively.
