Buxton Pratt Website Privacy Policy

As the operator of its website, Buxton Pratt Consulting needs to obtain and retain information about those who are using its website. Buxton Pratt Consulting recognises the importance, however, of protecting that information. We know you may be concerned about what we do with that information. You have our assurance that we will not disclose the information, and will use reasonable endeavours to prevent the disclosure of the information, except to the extent:

  • indicated at the time at which you provided the information to us;
  • expressly permitted under any agreement with you;
  • required for performance by us of services for you;
  • required for the ordinary operation of our website or our business (eg. to send you information you have requested about our HR services);
  • required or authorised under compulsion of law or provided in co-operation with any governmental authority; or
  • where it is already publicly available or is disclosed by Buxton Pratt Consulting in a manner that does not readily permit identification of information relating to you.

Subject to the above overriding prohibition on disclosure, Buxton Pratt Consulting may use the information as it sees fit for the purposes of its business.

1. How we handle email messages

Buxton Pratt Consulting may retain the content of any email message that you send us. Any personal information contained in your message will only be used or disclosed in ways set out in this Privacy Policy. Your message content may be monitored by our service providers or Buxton Pratt Consulting officers for trouble shooting, compliance auditing and maintenance purposes or where email abuse is suspected.

2. Website Security

We use a number of mechanisms to protect the security and integrity of personal information that you have provided to us via the Buxton Pratt Consulting’s website, however as the website is linked to the internet and the internet is inherently insecure, Buxton Pratt Consulting cannot provide any definitive assurance regarding security of the information. So while we strive to protect such information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us and you do so at your own risk. Buxton Pratt Consulting will not be liable in any way in relation to any breach of security or unintended loss or disclosure of information due to the website being linked to the internet.

Once your personal information comes into our possession, we will take reasonable steps to protect that information from misuse and loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

3. Links to other Websites

Buxton Pratt Consulting’s website may contain links to websites operated by third parties. Buxton Pratt Consulting is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of Third Party Websites. Third Party Websites are responsible for informing you about their own privacy practices.

4. Miscellaneous

This website privacy policy is subject to amendment at any time. Any amendment will be made on a prospective basis, ie. all information received or retained before the time of any amendment will remain subject to the policy applicable before the amendment. This website privacy policy is separate from our policy regarding personal information (for the purposes of the Privacy Act 1988) and does not override any rights you have under that Act.
