Privacy and Confidentiality

When you work with me you can be assured that any information your provide will be safe and secure. While the Privacy Act 1988 applies only to businesses with a turnover of over $3 million, its principles provide a framework that can be applied by a business of any size to ensure your information is safe. I will: 

• Advise you for what purpose the information will be used;

• Use personal information only for its intended purpose;

• Keep it protected and safe while in my possession, and will not share with other parties*;

• Respond to questions about what personal information I have and how I handle it;

• Be up-to-date with legal obligations regarding compliance with privacy guidelines.

Rest assured that if you provide any personal or identifying information to me, it will only be used for the purpose for which it was intended and be kept securely.

If you require specific measures regarding the safe-keeping of information (eg. password protecting documents or shredding information once it is used), I am willing and able to accommodate such requests. 

Your privacy will always be respected, and your information will be protected.

* unless instructed by you, the client, to provide information with a third party.  If information does need to be shared with a third party, permission will be sought.
