PRIVACY POLICY

​

OUR COMMITMENT

Prescribe Exercise Australia Pty Ltd respects your privacy and is committed to providing you with the highest levels of professional service. This includes protecting your privacy in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (the Privacy Act). We recognise the importance of protecting the privacy and the rights of individuals in relation to their personal information. Prescribe Exercise Australia Pty Ltd will take all reasonable steps to protect the privacy of the personal information that we collect, use or disclose. This document is our privacy policy and sets out how we intend to do so.

 

SCOPE

This policy applies to all clients, customers, suppliers and prospective employees. This Policy does not apply to acts and practices of the Company which relate directly to the employee records of the Company’s current and former employees.

This Privacy Policy lets you know what personal information of yours we hold, what we do with it, who we will disclose it to and how you can access the personal information we hold about you. You can also find out here how to change inaccurate personal information and how to opt out of receiving communications from us.

 

WHAT IS PERSONAL INFORMATION?

Personal information is any information that can be used to identify you. This includes any personal information or opinions about you, whether true or not, no matter how the information or opinions are recorded.

Sensitive information is a special category of personal information and includes, but is not limited to, information about your health, race or ethnic origin, political or religious beliefs or criminal record. We will not disclose your sensitive information without your consent, unless there is a need to disclose such information in accordance with the Privacy Act or to comply with any other legislation.

 

COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Prescribe Exercise Australia Pty Ltd collects personal information necessary to lawfully and ethically carry on its business, to undertake the client services we offer (see the Our Services link on our website: https://www.prescribeaustralia.com.au for a list of our services). We will only collect personal information that is reasonably necessary to achieve this, or to recruit future employees.

If you would like to access any of our services on an anonymous basis, please tell us. If this is possible and lawful, we will take all reasonable steps to comply with your request. However, we may not be able to provide the services or supply the product in question if we are not provided with the personal information requested.

 

WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT AND USE?

The nature and extent of personal information collected by Prescribe Exercise Australia Pty Ltd varies depending on your particular interaction with us.

Prescribe Exercise Australia Pty Ltd collects two distinct types of personal information:

• information relating to our commercial clients/suppliers and the contact people in those organisations; and

• information about individuals who consent to providing personal information to us (including sensitive information) as part of Prescribe Exercise Australia Pty Ltd providing services to those commercial clients (such as from employees or prospective employees of those clients)

The information Prescribe Exercise Australia Pty Ltd collects will include contact details, such as your name, email address and telephone numbers. We may also collect personal information, including sensitive information, from you if required by the services we are performing for our clients. This can include health information, which will be only collected with your consent.

For commercial clients, credit information may also be collected for establishing a client account with us (but this will usually be corporate and commercial, rather than personal, information).

We use personal information you provide only for purposes consistent with the reason you provided it, or for a directly related purpose. We will not use your personal information in a manner contrary to the Privacy Act or this Policy.

 

HOW DO WE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION?

Where possible, we collect your personal information directly from you. We collect information through various means, including interviews, appointments, forms and questionnaires. If you feel that the information that we are requesting, either on our forms or in our discussions with you, is not information that you wish to provide, please feel free to raise this with us. In some situations we may also obtain personal information about you from a third party source. If we collect information about you in this way, we will take reasonable steps to contact you and ensure that you are aware of the purposes for which we are collecting your described above.

 

ACCESS TO AND CORRECTION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information that we hold is accurate and up to date. You have a right to access and copy your personal information by contacting Prescribe Exercise Australia Pty Ltd at the address below. Where we hold information that you are entitled to access, we will endeavour to provide you with a suitable range of choices as to how access is provided (e.g. emailing or mailing it to you). A fee may be charged to cover the cost of retrieval.

MARKETING

Where we have obtained your consent to do so, or in circumstances where you would reasonably expect that your personal information would be used or disclosed for this purpose, we may contact you from time to time with marketing material about our other products or services (note: this only applies to commercial clients and prospective clients), not individuals who provide sensitive information as part of our services to our clients. At any time, you may opt out of receiving this material by contacting us by email to info@prescibeaustralia.com.au or at Head Office Phone: 1300 798 771
