Vircom Pty Ltd is committed to protecting the privacy of its visitors to its website - www.vircom.com.au.

We have written this Privacy Statement in order to describe and explain to visitors to our site our privacy and information collection practice. If you have any questions or concerns in connection with Vircom's privacy and information collection practice summarised in this Privacy Statement, please send an email, with the subject heading "Privacy Statement Question", stating your questions or concerns, to: privacy@vircom.com.au

What Information Is Collected?
To participate in certain activities and to obtain certain services offered on this web site, a visitor is asked to provide varying amounts of personal information. Some information is mandatory while other information is discretionary. We endeavour to limit our requests for personal information to information we believe is minimally necessary to achieve our stated collection purposes. Clients using our web based reporting products are provided with exclusive passwords and IDs to manage the use of those products and to ensure the secure transmission of those services.

How Does Vircom Use My Information?
Personal information is collected and used primarily for such purposes as, for example, facilitating purchases online, processing a visitor’s job resume, or considering partnership applications. In particular, a visitor’s shipping and invoice addresses are used for fulfilling purchase orders and for debiting the visitor's credit card. In addition to the primary purposes for which personal information is collected, we may use the personal information to contact a visitor to confirm information related to a purchase order or to advise a visitor if an item for purchase is on back order. We may also use a visitor’s email address or phone number: We do not sell, rent, share, or otherwise dispose of the personal information collected on our web site to third parties. We may, however, disclose your personal information when required by law or in the good-faith belief that such disclosure is necessary to comply with law. We use non-personal information such as demographic data to analyze and develop our marketing strategies. We use non-personal information to determine how you found out about us, what your interests are regarding our services, and how to further improve our site.

How Can I Opt-Out?
We provide a visitor with the opportunity to opt-out from receiving updates on new products, newsletters, and other promotional materials. The opt-out option may be exercised during the registration process by clicking on the "NO" button when asked if you wish to receive information in the future. If you have not exercised the opt-out option during the initial registration process, you can opt-out later by sending an email, with the subject heading "Privacy Statement Opt-Out," to privacy@vircom.com.au. In the email, you should request the opt-out option.

What Are Cookies and How Does Vircom Use Them?
A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. We use "cookie" technology for several purposes. First, we use it to track general information about our visitors. The information collected through cookies is non-personal information and we use this information for statistical and market research purposes. We also use cookies to establish a link between your computer and us.

Does Our Privacy Policy Apply to Linked Websites?
Our Privacy Statement applies solely to information collection practice on the Vircom website. This site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that Vircom has no control or influence over the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our visitors to be aware when they leave to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that they visit.

How Does Vircom Secure Data Transmission?
Different schemes are used to secure transmissions based on the type of data being managed and the level of security required by a visitor or a user. We use industry standard, SSL (secure socket layer) encryption and incorporate systems from SecureID where Public Key encryption is required for complete end to end security.

Changes to this Privacy Statement
From time to time we may need to change our Privacy Statement because of changes to our business, or in our attempts to serve your needs better. We will endeavour to post those changes on our homepage so our visitors are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
