Galvanizers. In this policy we explain how and why we collect
your personal information, how we use it, and what controls you
have over our use of it.
- Hartway Galvanizers is committed to complying with Commonwealth
legislation governing privacy of personal information by businesses
and to protecting and safeguarding your privacy when you deal
with us.
Collection of information
- Some information provided to us by clients, customers, contractors
and other third parties might be considered private or personal.
Without these details we would not be able to carry on our business
and provide our services to you. We will only collect such personal
information if it is necessary for one of our functions or activities.
- In particular, personal information is collected from people
in the following situations by Hartway Galvanizers:
- If you contact Hartway Galvanizers, we may keep
a record of that correspondence.
- When you submit your e-mail address to our web
site mailing list.
- At or before the time the personal information is collected
by us we will take reasonable steps to ensure that you are made
aware of who we are, the fact that you are able to gain access
to the information held about you, the purpose of the collection,
the type(s) of organisations to which we usually disclose the
information collected about you, any laws requiring the collection
of the information and the main consequences for you if all or
part of the information is not collected.
Use of information collected and disclosure of personal
information to others
- We may use or disclose personal information held about an individual
for the primary purpose for which it is collected (eg. provision
of our services, including administration of our services, notification
to you about changes to our services, record-keeping following
termination of our services to you and technical maintenance).
We may also use such information for a purpose related to the
primary purpose of collection and where it would reasonably be
expected by you that we would use the information in such a way.
This information is only disclosed to persons outside our business
in the circumstances set out in this policy or as otherwise notified
to you at the time of collection of the information.
- In addition we are permitted to use or disclose personal information
held about you:
Where you have consented to the use or disclosure;

is necessary to lessen or prevent a serious, immediate threat
to someone's health or safety or the public's health or safety;

has been, is being or may be engaged in and the use or disclosure
is a necessary part of our investigation or in reporting the
matter to the relevant authorities;
- Where such use or disclosure is required under
or authorised by law (for example, to comply with a subpoena,
a warrant or other order of a court or legal process);
- Where we reasonably believe that the use or disclosure
is reasonably necessary for prevention, investigation, prosecution
and punishment of crimes or wrongdoings or the preparation
for, conduct of, proceedings before any court or tribunal
or the implementation of the orders of a court or tribunal
by or on behalf of an enforcement body.
