Market Plaza Chipping Norton recognise that your privacy is important and we are committed to protecting the personal information we collect from you. The Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), Australian Privacy Principles and registered privacy codes govern the way in which we must manage your personal information. This policy sets out how we collect, use, disclose and otherwise manage your personal information.
TYPES OF INFORMATION COLLECTED
We may collect and hold personal information about you, that is, information that can identify you and is relevant to providing you with the services and products you are seeking. The kinds of information we typically collect include name, address, phone number, email address or other information relevant to providing you with the services and products you are, or someone else you know, is seeking.

Personal information will generally be collected directly from you through the use of any of our standard forms, over the internet, via email, or through a telephone conversation with you. We may also collect personal information about you from third parties acting on your behalf.
PURPOSE OF COLLECTION
The personal information that we collect and hold about you, depends on your interaction with us. Generally, we collect, use and hold your personal information if it is reasonably necessary for or directly related to the performance of our functions, promotions, activities and for the purposes of:

Except as otherwise permitted by law, we only collect sensitive information about you if you consent to the collection of the information and if the information is reasonably necessary for the performance of our functions, as set out above.
