NYE & Net Promotions Pty Ltd PRIVACY POLICY
This Privacy Policy applies
to the services offered by NYE & Net Promotions Pty Ltd (082 901
317) (”Net Promotions”). Net Promotions encourages you to review this
Privacy
Policy periodically because it may change from time to time without
notice.
1. Personal information is important.
At Net Promotions, protecting your privacy and the confidentiality of your
“personal information” is very important to us and is fundamental to
the way we serve you.
Net Promotions is committed to
safeguarding personal privacy. It recognises that individuals have a
right to control how their personal information is collected and used.
Providing personal information is an act of trust and it is taken
seriously. Unless given consent to do otherwise, Net Promotions will
only collect and use personal information as set out below.
2.
Collecting personal information. Net Promotions will not collect or
monitor any personal information about an individual without their
consent. The only personal information collected is what has been
provided voluntarily. We will collect personal information from you by
lawful and fair means and not in an unreasonably intrusive way.
When
you use our services over the web or via marketing activities, personal
information may be requested in order to provide the service to you,
send updated information, and advise of other Net Promotions services,
features and products, which may be of interest.
The type of
personal information we may collect from you generally comprises name,
address, age group, gender, contact details (including phone, fax and
e-mail) and information collected as a result of you using Net
Promotions services. You may also add but are not obliged to add
additional
details relating to your weight and measurements to assist us to
provide a more comprehensive service to you.
No one is obligated
to provide personal information. However, failure to do so may result
in Net Promotions being unable to provide some or all of the services
it offers to you.
Net Promotions policy for collecting personal
information from children under the age of 13 is to seek the permission
of a parent or guardian for the collection of this information.
The
information that Net Promotions collects about you is dependent on how
you use the services offered by the Net Promotions website.
If
you visit an unsecure area of the Net Promotions website (that is, an
area where you are not required to log on) to read, browse or download
information, our system will record the date and time of your visit to
our site, the pages viewed and any information downloaded. However, our
systems will not record any personally identifiable information.
The Net Promotions website offers a number of interactive facilities
including tools and forums that allow for personal opinions and
discussions to be expressed and also to measure and chart progress.
The
use of some of these services and tools require you to register or to
log on if already registered. In that case the information is stored on
our systems so that you may recover the information when you resume
your session. Any information stored in a suspended or saved planner or
other similar tool will not be viewed by Net Promotions.
If you
decide to complete an online registration, or to participate in
interactive forums, the information that you enter into the online form
will only be collected by Net Promotions if you submit your online
registration. If at any stage you cancel your application or log out
prior to submitting your registration, the information you have entered
up to that point will be deleted.
If you suspend
or save your registration application, for example because you wish to
complete it at another time, the information that you have entered will
be retained in our systems so that you may recover the information when
you resume your application. You may only recover this information
within 30 days. After this time, the information is deleted. Online
registrations that have been suspended or saved will not be viewed by
us and are not processed by us.
3. Use of tracking technologies
Net Promotions uses tracking technologies such as cookies or web beacons
to make use of the website and services as convenient as possible.
Cookies
are pieces of information that a web site transfers to a computer’s
hard disk for record keeping purposes. Web Beacon is a technical method
that sends information related to the access to websites, when you
browse websites, open or preview an HTML-formatted email. Most web
browsers are set to accept tracking technologies such as cookies or web
beacons. These tracking technologies do not themselves personally
identify users, although they do identify a user’s browser.
These
tracking technologies allow Net Promotions to monitor the services you
wish to use as you move through the site, and to record how many people
are using the different parts of the site. It is possible to set the
browser to refuse tracking technologies such as cookies or web beacons,
however, this may limit the services provided by Net Promotions’ web
site.
4. Using and disclosing your personal information
The personal information we collect from you ultimately allows us to provide you with better service.
We
may also use or disclose your personal information for purposes related
or ancillary to the main purpose for which we collect it and where such
use or disclosure would be reasonably expected by you.
Personal Information will be used for the following primary purpose: - Eg:
To record and chart progress using the services offered by Net Promotions.
To monitor the forums
To offer you services related to Net Promotions.
To provide information about products, service and/or special offers.

To record statistical data for marketing analysis.
For
the purpose described above, information may be shared with Net
Promotions group companies either in Australia or overseas. Also, in
order
to operate the web site or deliver a service, personal information may
also be shared with a service provider, a non-Net Promotions group
company.
Net Promotions and Net Promotions group companies
recognise the trust with which individuals provide personal
information, and such information will not be used or disclosed for any
other purposes without consent, except in exceptional cases when
disclosure may be required by law or is necessary to protect the rights
or property of Net Promotions, any Net Promotions group company, or
any member of the public, or to lessen a serious threat to a person’s
health or safety.

these facilities may be overseas.
Net Promotions employees and
