Privacy Policy
Web Strategy Resources recognises the importance of privacy protection and has created
this Privacy Policy in order to demonstrate its commitment to protecting your privacy.
The Web Strategy Resources Privacy Policy covers the collection, use, storage, and
disclosure of your personal information and complies with the
Australian National Privacy Principles outlined in the Privacy Amendment (Private
Sector) Act 2000.
1. Collection
Web Strategy Resources will only collect the personal information it requires to
provide you with business and related services or for the promotion or marketing
of its services.
Web Strategy Resources will only collect information by lawful and fair means and
not in an unreasonably intrusive way. Web Strategy Resources collects personal information
in a number of ways, including:
- directly from you, when you provide information by telephone or in application forms,
or when you submit your personal details via the Web Strategy Resources website
(e.g. when you make a purchase from the Web Strategy Resources website);
- from third parties such as our related companies, credit reporting agencies, or
your representatives;
- from publicly available sources of information;
- from the organisations identified below under 'Use and disclosure' of personal information;

services to you;
- conduct appropriate checks for credit-worthiness and for fraud;
- research and develop our services; and
- maintain and develop our business systems and infrastructure, including testing
and upgrading of these systems.
If Web Strategy Resources uses your personal information for direct marketing purposes,
any correspondence sent to you will include clear instructions on how to opt out
of receiving any further marketing correspondence.
In order to deliver the services you require, Web Strategy Resources may disclose
your personal information to organisations outside Web Strategy Resources. Your
personal information is disclosed to these organisations only in relation to Web
Strategy Resources providing its services to you. These organisations carry out
our:
- mailing operations;
- billing and debt-recovery functions;
- information technology services;
- marketing, telemarketing and door-knocking services; and
- market research.
Web Strategy Resources takes reasonable steps to ensure that these organisations
are bound by confidentiality and privacy obligations in relation to the protection
of your personal information.
In addition, we may disclose your personal information to:
- your authorised representatives or your legal advisers (e.g. when requested by you
to do so);
- credit-reporting and fraud-checking agencies;
- credit providers (for credit related purposes such as credit-worthiness, credit
rating, and credit provision);
- our related companies;
- our professional advisers, including our accountants, auditors, and lawyers;
- government and regulatory authorities and other organisations, as required or authorised
by law; and
- organisations who manage our business and corporate strategies, including those
involved in a transfer/sale of all or part of our assets or business (including
accounts and trade receivables) and those involved in managing our corporate risk
and funding functions (e.g. securitisation).
Web Strategy Resources may provide aggregate statistics about its customers, sales,
traffic patterns, and related website information to reputable third party vendors,
but these statistics will include no personally identifying information.
3. Data quality
Web Strategy Resources will take reasonable steps to make sure your personal information
it collects, uses or discloses is accurate, complete and up-to date. If you believe
that any personal information that Web Strategy Resources holds about you is not
accurate, complete or up-to-date, please contact Web Strategy Resources so we can
investigate the matter.

it holds from misuse and loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

your personal information if it is no longer needed for any purpose.

holds about you. You can access your personal information by contacting Web Strategy
Resources. Web Strategy Resources may require you to put your request in writing
