South Street Primary School Privacy Statement

This Privacy Policy has been published to provide a clear and concise outline of how and when personal information is collected, disclosed, used, stored and otherwise handled by South Street Primary School. The Policy relates to personal information collected by any means and by any technology.

Collection of Personal Information
Personal information is information or opinion from which an individual’s identity may be ascertained. The nature of personal information collected by our website generally comprises an individual’s name and contact details (including address, phone, fax and e-mail).

South Street Primary School does not collect personal information unless it is necessary for the school to perform one or more of its functions and activities.

South Street Primary School will destroy personal information when it is no longer required for such functions and activities.

South Street Primary School will generally collect personal information from you directly.

Use and Disclosure of Personal Information
South Street Primary School will use and disclose your personal information for the purpose for which the personal information was initially collected.

South Street Primary School may also use that personal information for a purpose related to the initial purpose of collection if that other purpose would be within your reasonable expectations. Related purposes might include internal auditing and administration, adding your name to a contact list, guest list or invitation list or helping us to identify production and broadcast activities which may be of benefit or interest to you.

South Street Primary School will not use or disclose your personal information for any other purposes without first obtaining your express or implied consent. South Street Primary School may however be required to disclose your personal information without your consent if the disclosure is:

  • required or authorised by law;
  • required in order to investigate an unlawful activity;
  • required by an enforcement body for investigative activities or necessary to prevent a serious and imminent threat to a person’s life, health or safety, or to public health or safety.

Generally, South Street Primary School will retain your personal information within Australia and not use or disclose it overseas. However, on some occasions the information may need to be transferred overseas in order to perform one of the school`s functions or activities. In these circumstances, South Street Primary School will either obtain your express or implied consent or will use its best endeavours to ensure that your personal information will receive protection similar to that which it would have if the information were in Australia.

Third Parties
Where reasonable and practicable to do so, we will collect your Personal Information only from you. However, in some circumstances we may be provided with information by third parties. In such a case we will take reasonable steps to ensure that you are made aware of the information provided to us by the third party.

Cookies & Applets
The Name website uses cookies to provide you with a better experience. A cookie is used to collect anonymous traffic data and this aggregate, non-personal information is collated to assist in analysing the usage of the site.

Direct marketing
From time to time, South Street Primary School may send you information regarding functions or activities.

If you do not wish to receive direct marketing information, please let us know. South Street Primary School will take immediate steps to ensure that you do not receive any direct marketing information in future.

Changes to this Policy
South Street Primary School may change this Policy from time to time for any reason and will update the Policy accordingly.

Security of Personal Information
Your Personal Information is stored in a manner that reasonably protects it from misuse and loss and from unauthorized access, modification or disclosure.

When your Personal Information is no longer needed for the purpose for which it was obtained, we will take reasonable steps to destroy or permanently de-identify your Personal Information. However, most of the Personal Information is or will be stored in client files which will be kept by us for a minimum of 7 years.

Access to your Personal Information
You may access the Personal Information we hold about you and to update and/or correct it, subject to certain exceptions. If you wish to access your Personal Information, please contact us in writing.

South Street Primary School will not charge any fee for your access request, but may charge an administrative fee for providing a copy of your Personal Information.

In order to protect your Personal Information we may require identification from you before releasing the requested information.

Maintaining the Quality of your Personal Information
It is an important to us that your Personal Information is up to date. We will take reasonable steps to make sure that your Personal Information is accurate, complete and up-to-date. If you find that the information we have is not up to date or is inaccurate, please advise us as soon as practicable so we can update our records and ensure we can continue to provide quality services to you.
