We may also get information from your employer or colleagues, for example, when your employer asks you to carry out work for us.

We collect further information from you during the period of our relationship.

In summary, we use your personal data for the following purposes:

  • to carry out obligations arising from any contracts between us and you;; with suppliers; or with third parties;
  • to communicate with you, including to provide you with general information we reasonably believe you may be interested in; and where it is necessary for our business.

We set out below further information on these purposes and our lawful basis for processing such information.

  • Suppliers, third party business contacts and prospects:
    • We process names, job titles and business contact information including addresses, telephone numbers and email addresses for you and your employees and representatives and other information to maintain and manage our relationship with you.  If we have a contract with you as an individual, such processing is necessary for the performance of the contract between us, or if you ask us to do something prior to entering into a contract.
    • Where you are an employee or representative of a corporate customer or contractor, we process this information for the legitimate interest of performing our contract with your employer.
    • If there is a problem, for example, if we have a complaint about a service you have provided then we have a legitimate interest in using personal data in connection with that complaint, for example, so that we can tell you what happened so that you can put things right.
    • We may perform due diligence on those we work with.  This can include in the form of credit checks on companies, including checking photographic identification and proof of address of directors and, in some cases, your shareholders, and verification of the company registration details.  We do this to comply with our legal obligations, and as necessary for our legitimate interests of checking that the entities we contract with are financially viable and would not cause us reputational damage.

    • This is for our legitimate interest in giving you content which is bespoke to you and making sure that our website runs smoothly. 
  • Other uses

    •  We may contact you about our services by email, telephone, post or by text message but we will only do this where we are allowed to under data protection law.  If you tell us that you do not want to be contacted for any of these purposes then we will of course respect that.  Sometimes we will need your consent before contacting you for these reasons.  If you give us your consent, then you have a right to withdraw that consent at any time.  You can withdraw your consent by contacting us as follows [email protected] . Any use of your personal data before you withdraw consent remains valid.

Sharing your information 

We may share your information with third parties as follows:

  • We will share your personal data with third parties where required by law, where it is necessary to administer the working relationship with you or where we have another legitimate interest in doing so.
  • If we have a legal obligation to do so or for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
  • We may share your personal data with third party service providers who act on our behalf such as IT services providers.  This notice also covers third party service providers we may engage with.

Overseas transfers

When you contact us via our website, the personal data that you have submitted is stored on a secure server in Asia.

How long will we use your personal data for?

Usually, we only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

If you have a contract with us then we will typically keep information for six or twelve years after the contract is finished. This does not apply to our contract with parents to educate their child.

In some cases we may keep your information for a longer time than usual but we would only do so if we had a good reason and only if we are allowed to do so under data protection law. For example, because we are a School we may need to keep information for longer (and in some cases indefinitely) to help us comply with our legal and safeguarding obligations. If you would like further information, please contact us on [email protected]

Your rights in relation to our processing of your personal data

You have the right to:

  • object to the processing of your personal data in some cases. You have a right to object if we are using it for direct marketing purposes (e.g. to send you an email about our services). You also have a right to object if the lawful basis on which we are relying is either legitimate interests or performance of a task carried out in the public interest. 
  • request a copy of the personal data we hold about you; 
  • request correction of the personal data that we hold about you if it is incorrect;
  • ask us to delete the information that we hold about you;
  • ask us to restrict how we use your personal data;

If you want to exercise any of your rights, please contact [email protected]. Please note that these rights do not apply in all cases,

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights).

If you ask us to restrict our use of your personal data or delete it, we will not be able to provide you with our services.

Where we need to collect personal data by law, or under the terms of a contract we have with you, and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with services). In this case, we may have to cancel a service you have with us but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.

You have a right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority.  The supervisory authority in Australia is the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner – oaic.gov.au.  If you do have any concerns about how we have handled your personal data we would kindly ask that you contact us in the first instance before you speak to the OAIC so that we have an opportunity to put things right.
