Sensitive information
The Privacy Act protects your sensitive information (e.g., information about your religion, ethnicity, health or biometrics). In the event we need this type of information, weâll ask for your permission, except where otherwise allowed by law.
How do we protect your personal information?
We will take such steps as are reasonable in the circumstances to protect information from misuse, interference, loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. We use organisational, technical and physical measures to protect your personal data, taking into account the nature of the personal data and the processing as well as the potential threats posed. We are constantly working to improve on these measures to help keep your personal data secure.
How can you access or correct your personal information?
We will strive to ensure that information about you is accurate when we collect or use it. Subject to some exceptions under privacy law, we will let you see the information we hold about you and correct it if it is inaccurate, incomplete or out-of-date. If we do not grant you access to your personal information or do not agree to correct your personal information we will tell you why.
Unless we do not agree to your request for access to personal information, in most cases Community Resources will provide you with access as soon as reasonably possible following receipt of your request. If you request corrections to your personal information and Community Resources agrees with your request, these changes will be made as soon as practicable. If Community Resources does not agree to your request for correction, we will notify you of the reasons. If you are dissatisfied with our refusal to provide you with access to, or correct, your Personal Information you may also complain to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner in writing via www.oaic.gov.au or mail to Office of the Australian information Commissioner, GPO Box 5218, Sydney NSW.
