OUR PRIVACY POLICY CONTINUED
< PAGE 1
All computer-based information is protected though the use of access passwords on each computer. Data is backed up regularly and stored securely off-site. In the event that you cease to be a client of this organisation, any personal information that we hold about you will be maintained in a secure storage facility for a period of seven years in order to comply with legislative and professional requirements, following which time the information may be destroyed.
How do I gain access to my personal information?
You may contact us at any time to request and gain access to your personal information. We may ask you to identify yourself to our satisfaction. Access to information is subject to some exceptions allowed by law. Factors affecting a right to access include situations where:
providing access would pose a serious threat to the life or health of a person;
providing access would have an unreasonable impact on the privacy of others;
the request for access is frivolous or vexatious;
the information relates to a commercially sensitive decision-making process;
providing access would be unlawful;
there are existing or anticipated legal proceedings;
providing access would prejudice enforcement activities relating to criminal activities and other breaches of law, public revenue, a security function or negotiations with you; and
denying access is required or authorised by law.
We will give you reasons if we deny you access to your personal information.
Keeping your personal information accurate
We aim to ensure that, at all times, the personal information that we hold about you is complete, up to date and accurate. If you become aware, or believe, that any personal information that we hold about you is incorrect, please tell us.
We want our records to be accurate, complete and up to date as we rely on this information to provide you with appropriate recommendations. Unless we disagree with you about the accuracy, currency or completeness of a record, we will generally correct it on request, (or suggest alternative arrangements for updating our records). If we disagree with you, we will give you our reasons and record your objections on your file.
