Further information on
privacy
1. Your
personal information is
important to us
Comsec TR recognises that
your privacy is very
important to you and that
you have a right to control
your personal information.
We know that providing
personal information is an
act of trust and we take
that seriously. Unless you
give us explicit consent to
act otherwise, the following
policy will govern how
Comsec TR handles your
personal information and
safeguards your privacy.
Comsec is committed to
protecting your personal
information and giving you
choice in who can use your
personal information and how
it can be used. We believe
that our privacy policy not
only complies with relevant
laws but represents industry
best practice.
2.
Collecting personal
information about you If you
apply to become an Comsec
Reseller
Once you have applied to
become an Comsec TR
Reseller, we collect
personal information about
you in order to provide you
with the full benefits of
program. Also from time to
time thereafter we may
request you to provide us
additional information.
Any further collection of
your personal information
than that explained above
will only occur with consent
from you. Comsec TR only
collects information from
your that is relevant to
application to become a
reseller. We do not collect
information about you from
other organizations or from
websites.
3.
Preserving your privacy
Surveys show that most
internet users are concerned
about their privacy, want to
keep control of their
personal information, and do
not trust many of the web
sites which they visit. In
fact, research shows around
a third of internet users
give false information
online rather than saying
who they really are.
Comsec TR understands that
even with our privacy
policy, some people still
will not feel comfortable
disclosing their personal
information in order to
become an Comsec Reseller or
request information of
Comsec TR products.
However, Comsec TR never
gives information that
identifies you as an
individual (such as your
name or your email address),
unless you have given us
your express consent to
disclose such information.
