privacy policy

We will not collect any personal or business information, nor store or share that information with any third party without your express permission.

Why we need Information

When you visit our site you will receive explicit advice when we seek to gather information about you. The information you provide is used to produce your web page and any information you supply is displayed to the public on this page, unless otherwise stated.

The Registration Process

The information harvested during the registration process is used to create your own unique identification as a site visitor/services user and enable us to undertake the various administration processes necessary.

Your Unique Identification

This identification is provided in the form of a member name and password. It is important that you keep this identification secret to avoid unauthorized use of your account.

How we use your Information

The information we collect about you or your business enables us to:

- understand your needs
- improve our service to you
- stay in touch with you through other media as you require
- deliver goods and services to the addresses you have provided
- enhance and refine existing information we may have acquired from other sources
- complete the internal administration necessary to register you and maintain our service to you

How do you know if we are gathering Information?

Detailed information about you is only collected when you are advised explicitly that is what we are doing and you supply it voluntarily.

Sharing Information

We may share the information with sub-contractors and partners but only on condition that they comply strictly with our own Supplier Confidentiality Agreement, the Customer Privacy Promise you are currently reading and the EU Directive on Data Protection and the Data Protection Act 1998.

Checking Information

You can check the accuracy of our records and make modifications at any time in the 'My Settings' area.

Deleting Information

You can immediately delete any information we hold about you by using the facilities in My Account. But please remember that deletion of key information may affect your status as a registered user.

Sale of Information

If you have agreed explicitly to allow us to do so, information about you may be sold or provided to third parties. However, no information will be provided to any other party without your express permission.

Third Party Advertising

We use MaxOnline and other third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our Web site. These companies may use information (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visits to this and other Web sites in order to provide advertisements on this site and other sites about goods and services that may be of interest to you. If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices about not having this information used by these companies, please click here.

Third Party Cookies

In the course of serving advertisements to this site, our third-party advertiser may place or recognize a unique ìcookieî on your browser.

Legal Disclosure

When approached by the appropriate authorities, information about you or account usage may be disclosed but only when legally required under Australasian Law.

Security

We take all reasonable precautions to protect information about you from loss, misuse and alteration. Agents, partners and sub-contractors who have access to your information have a duty of care as detailed in our contracts with them and are not permitted to use it for any other purpose unless you have given your explicit permission in detail that they may do so.

Destruction of Confidential Materials

Manual destruction of files, records and computer print-outs containing sensitive data are carried out in a secure way by either internally shredding or using a supplier who uses secure disposal methods.

Hackers and Viruses

Your registration details are very important - please keep your password and member name secret. It is better for other users to register separately than to share your account access information. We will never write to ask for your login details - be cautious of anyone asking for this information.

Automated Collection of Other Information

Some non-personal information may be collected automatically, such as the computer operating system and the type of browser software you are using, along with special codes that tell us which pages you have visited. Some information is stored in the form of a 'cookie', a small file which remains on your computer but which acts as a reminder about any preferences you have selected when visiting our sites. We only use 'cookies' to improve our service to you. We may occasionally allow this non-personal data to be used by third party content suppliers, to help us serve you with more relevant content. We may also store your log in details on your computer, but only if you explicitly request us to do so. Remember that if you opt for us to do this, any other user of the same computer can access your account. You can delete this 'cookie' by clicking the Log Out link at the top of any page.

Switching Cookies Off

Cookies are required in order to become a member of Mogenic, or to use the Mogenic Services.

Linked Sites

This Privacy Statement does not apply to any third parties over whom we have no control.

Changes to our Privacy Statement

We reserve the right to change this statement at any time without warning to meet any statutory requirements or changes in the nature of our activities and services. This privacy statement does not form the basis of any contract between any party.

Protect your Privacy

We caution you against giving out personally identifiable information (such as social security numbers, credit card numbers, names and addresses, driver license numbers, passwords) to strangers online, which may be used for illegal or harmful purposes.

Some personal information you provide to Mogenic may be stored outside of the country in which you reside.
