RO Digital Pty Ltd (ABN 59 19 650 212 712) trading as RO Digital (collectively referred to as “RO”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is committed to protecting personal information in accordance with Australian privacy laws. This Privacy Policy sets out RO’s approach to handling personal information and includes information on how we collect, use, disclose and keep secure your personal information, whether provided to us via this website or other means.

We may, from time to time, review and update this Privacy Policy so please check this website periodically to stay informed of any updates. All personal information collected and held by us will be governed by the most recently updated Privacy Policy.

1. Collection of personal information by RO

We will only collect personal information from you that we reasonably require for one or more of our business functions or activities, and will do so by lawful and fair means. The kinds of personal information we may collect from you will depend on what type of interaction you have with us. However, it may include, among other things:

• Personal information you provide to us when you participate in a promotion, competition, promotional activity, survey, market research or customer behavioural activity, subscribe to our mailing list or interact or follow our social media pages like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. This information may include, for example, your name, postal address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, age and occupation;
• Personal information you provide to us when you place an order. This information may include, for example, your name, postal address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, age, IP address and credit card details;
• In some circumstances, we may collect personal information from third parties such as credit reporting agencies. Where we do, we will ensure that we act in accordance with relevant Australian laws.

We will not collect sensitive information about you (such as information about your racial or ethnic origins or political or religious beliefs) unless you have consented to such collection or the collection is required by law.

2. How we store your personal information

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from loss or unauthorised access. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed as totally secure. Accordingly, although we strive to protect such information, we do not warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our online services and you use these services at your own risk.

We may provide you with the opportunity to provide commentary through our sites in a public forum, such commenting on articles that we may provide. You must appreciate that this may be accessed by anyone. So you should avoid providing personal details and information at all times, and we’ll not be held responsible if someone should breach your privacy as a result of you disclosing it in a public forum.

We only keep your personal information for as long as it is required for the purpose for which it was collected or as otherwise required by law. We will take appropriate measures to destroy or permanently de-identify your personal information if we no longer need to retain it. These measures may vary depending on the type of information concerned, the way it was collected and how it was stored.

3. How your personal information will be used

We collect your personal information so that we can use it for our functions and activities and provide products and services to you, which include, among other things:

• processing orders you place with us, including providing you with confirmation of your orders, and providing you with our products and services, where applicable;
• administering and responding to your enquiry or feedback about our products and/or services;
• conducting, and allowing you to participate in, a promotion, competition, promotional activity, survey, market research or customer behavioural activity;
• promoting and marketing our current and future products and services to you, informing you of upcoming events and special promotions and offers and analysing our products and services so as to improve and develop new products and services;
• facilitating our business operations, including fulfilment of any legal and regulatory requirements, and enforcement of our agreements, terms of business, and terms of use;
• improving the operation or navigation of our websites;

We may also use your personal information for other purposes not listed above which will be made clear to you at the time we collect your personal information, or for such purposes as may be required or permitted by law.

4. Disclosure of personal information to third parties

We may disclose personal information we collect from you:

• to our related companies, suppliers, consultants (including lawyers and accountants), contractors or agents for the purposes set out in the section above entitled “How your personal information will be used” or for other purposes directly related to the purpose for which the personal information is collected. For example, your name and telephone number may be disclosed to our supplier to enable that supplier to respond to your request for information about a particular product it produces;
• to others that you have been informed of, at the time any personal information is collected from you;
• with your consent (express or implied) to others.

Such disclosure may include the transfer of your personal information between Australia and New Zealand. You consent to your personal information being disclosed to these overseas recipients.

5. Opting in or out

At the point we collect information from you, you may be asked to “opt in” to consent to us using or disclosing your personal information. You will generally be given the opportunity to “opt out” from receiving marketing communications from us. You may “opt out” from receiving these marketing communications by clicking on an unsubscribe link at the end of an email or by contacting us with this request.

6. Employment Applications

Generally, the type of personal information we collect about applicants is the information included in your application for employment, for example, your name, postal address, telephone number, email address, education details, employment history and other information relating to your work experience. In considering your application, we may also obtain personal information about you from third parties, for example, from your previous employers or nominated referees. We may also collect sensitive information about you such as information about your health (including any disability) or any criminal record you may have.
