How and why we collect your personal information

It is our usual practice to only collect personal information directly from you, however, there may be situations where we collect information about you from other sources or third parties (such as your organisation, your representatives and information service providers).
We may collect personal information from our related companies in the Marlin Brands Group (“Related Companies”) for the purposes of data analytics across websites in the Marlin Brands Group and to enable us to better customise your experience and our service offering to you.
We specifically collect personal information from you in circumstances such as when you:

- communicating with us through written correspondence, telephone calls, chats, emails or when you share information with us through other social applications, services or sites; or

How do we use your personal information
We will use your personal information for the purposes of delivering, administering and improving the products and services that we offer to you.
In addition, we may also use your personal information:
- to communicate with you, including about products and services, competition results, special offers, promotional material and events which might interest you, being offered by either us or our Related Companies;
- to verify your identity, answer your questions, respond to your complaints and provide you with customer support services to you;
- to help prevent fraud (e.g. we may check payment card details with our credit agency, who may keep a record of that information, and reserve the right to refuse orders on that basis);
- to create orders, transaction records, tax invoices or receipts and otherwise maintain your customer account with us;
- to undertake product and service development, quality control and research to improve our Website and the way Umbra and our Related Companies and service providers provide products and services to you; and
- as otherwise permitted or required by law (such as to comply with obligations under the Privacy Act in relation to mandatory data breach notification).
In the event we hold personal information that is unsolicited, and we were not permitted to collect it, the personal information will be destroyed as soon as practicable. If we collect personal information about you from someone else, we will advise you, as soon as and as far as practicable, that this information has been collected and the circumstances of the collection.

We may disclose your personal information to:

- government and regulatory authorities, as required or authorised by law;

- other third parties permitted by law.
Third parties to whom we disclose personal information may from time to time be located overseas, including, but not limited to, our partners and affiliates in the United States of America. You consent to any such overseas disclosure and acknowledge APP 8.1 will not apply to such disclosure.
Cookies
We may utilise “cookies” when you visit our Website, which enables us to operate an efficient service and track the patterns of behaviour of visitors to the Website. A cookie does not identify you personally but does identify your computer. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie and this will provide you with an opportunity to either accept or reject it in each instance. Please note that cookies allow you to take full advantage of the services we provide through the Website and so we recommend that you leave them turned on.
Access to and correction of your personal information
We take reasonable steps to make sure that the personal information we collect, use and disclose is accurate, complete and up-to-date.
If you need to access or correct any personal information we hold about you, please contact us using the “Contact Details” set out below. We request that you provide us with as much detail as you can about the particular information you seek access to or correction of, in order to help us retrieve it. We will endeavour to process your request as soon as practicable.
An access fee may be charged to cover our costs of providing the requested information to you. In certain circumstances, we may refuse to provide you with access or to correct your personal information including, but not limited to where:
- giving access would pose a serious threat to the life, health or safety of any individual, or to public health or public safety;
- giving access would have an unreasonable impact on the privacy of other individuals;
- the request for access is frivolous or vexatious;
- giving access would be unlawful; or
- denying access is otherwise required or authorised by law.
If that is the case, we will give you our reasons for that decision. Where we decide not to update your personal information, you can request us to attach to the personal information a statement of the update sought. In some circumstances where we correct a record, we may still require the retention of the original record.
Data Security and Storing the Personal Information
We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, interference and loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. This protection applies in relation to information stored in both electronic and hard copy form.
We use a number of procedures and processes to ensure, where possible, the security and integrity of your personal information including by:
- maintaining physical access restrictions, password protections and technology products to prevent unauthorised computer access; and
- securely destroying or de-identifying your personal information when it is no longer needed for any purpose for which the information may be used or disclosed under this Privacy Policy, excepting as required or authorised by law or for our record retention purposes.
We use 256 - bit SSL (secure sockets layer) encryption technology when processing your financial details. 256-bit SSL is the industry standard. To further secure your credit card, we also don’t keep details of your credit card information, including the security code (or CCV number) that you need to input in order to complete an order using your credit card. However, no data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed as completely secure.
While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee 100% the security of any information (personal or other) you transmit to us over the internet. Therefore, we do not warrant the security of any information you transmit to use over the internet and you do so at your own risk.
Opting out of promotional and marketing content
You may elect to opt-out of receiving direct marketing and promotional communications by contacting us by email using the contact details provided below, or by any other simple means to opt-out that we provide you. However, some of our services may include a direct marketing and promotional communications feature as part of the service which cannot be removed and, as such, you may not be able to access or use some of our Website or services if you elect to opt-out of all direct promotional and marketing communications.
