Tyrepower Web Site Privacy
Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to the Tyrepower
web site at http://www.TyrepowerGeelong.com.au/.
Please note that this policy is only intended to
cover information collected through this site and does
not attempt to describe the general personal information
practices of actual Tyrepower outlets. These are covered
by the Tyrepower privacy policy, which is available from
Suite 3, 358 Whitehorse Road
Nunawading VIC 3131.
1. Your
personal information is important to
us Tyrepower recognises the importance of
protecting your privacy. This policy explains how we
handle personal information that is collected on our web
site. It reflects our company policies and our
understanding of our obligations under the Privacy Act
1988.
2. Collecting information about
you Tyrepower collects limited amounts of
personal information on its web site. At the times when
we collect personal information we will make clear how
we will use this information. The purposes for which we
collect information include responding to enquiries,
resolving a complaint or service problem, providing a
quote, or booking in an appointment.
The kind of
information that we collect on the web site is
relatively limited. The only personal information we
collect on our site is what you tell us about yourself,
for example by providing information such as your name,
address, phone and e-mail contact details, and
information about your enquiry. If you contact us, we
may keep a record of that contact.
3. Our
purpose for collecting this information The
purpose for us collecting information about you on our
site is usually obvious at the time when you provide it.
For example, we collect personal information so that we
can assist you with an enquiry, or respond to a request
to make a booking to come to one of our outlets.
Occasionally, we conduct research on customer
satisfaction using this information.
If you make
an enquiry relating to something that needs to be
handled by a local outlet, we will pass on information
about your request to a local outlet. For example, we
may provide information to a local outlet about a
warranty enquiry, a service problem or in handling to a
request for a particular product.
4.
Disclosing your personal information Your
personal information is confidential. Tyrepower will not
disclose any information about you without your consent,
unless:
- Required by law
- We believe it necessary to provide you with a
service which you have requested, such as making a
booking at a local outlet
- We clearly inform you at the time when we collect
the information from you
- To protect the rights, property or personal safety
of another individual or Tyrepower
In the unlikely
event that the assets and operations of Tyrepower are
transferred to another party as a going concern.
- We, or one of our local outlets, may collect your
contact details so that we can remind you when it is
time to service your tyres in the future. Our policy
is to give you the choice as to whether or not you
wish to receive further information about special
offers, promotions, and reminders. If you indicate
that you do not wish to receive these, we will not
continue contacting you further for these purposes.
- We do not disclose information about you to
advertisers or other companies. Tyrepower and its
affiliates recognise the trust you place in us when
you give us personal information. In order to operate
the website or as part of our business operations we
may sometimes share your personal information with a
service provider. We will not otherwise disclose your
personal information to other companies without your
explicit consent.
