Caféstudy is owned and operated by Edentify Pty Ltd
Edentify Pty Limited ("Edentify") is committed to observing the Australian Privacy Principles as set out in the Privacy Amendment (Enhancing Privacy Protection) Act 2012, which amends the Privacy Act 1988.
Edentify has adopted all principles set forth in the Australian Privacy Principles that govern the collection, use, disclosure, quality, security, access and correction of information that personally identifies an individual ("Personal Information"). This Policy Statement applies to all Personal Information that Edentify may collect, use and disclose, whether that information is manually or digitally processed.
Edentify recommends that you keep this Policy Statement for future reference.
1. What Personal Information does Edentify hold and disclose?
All Personal Information collected is required and used for Edentify's business purposes only.
Edentify gathers and stores Personal Information when an individual registers to become a member of Caféstudy, redeems their points and registers to Caféstudy Chat. Your participation to surveys, forums and mobile polls is voluntary.
At registration we ask members to provide Personal Information. This information is used for targeting purposes, so the member will receive appropriate online research invitations.
All data collected from surveys, forums and mobile polls is stored and can be accessed by Edentify employees, Edentify contractors and Edentify clients. The Personal Information we collect is not shared with any unaffiliated third party, unless it is necessary to respond to your questions, provide the service you have requested or to comply with applicable law. We will never sell your Personal Information to any third party not affiliated with Edentify without your prior consent, except in connection with the sale, merger, in whole or part, of Edentify, its assets or the division responsible with such services.
Any Personal Information that you transmit or include within our online forums may be viewed and used by others. We are unable to control such uses of your Personal Information and by participating in online forums you assume the risk that such Personal Information provided by you may be viewed and used by third parties.
Edentify does not actively seek to collect sensitive information (for example health information, or information about racial or ethnic origin or criminal record) unless it becomes necessary for its business purposes. If Edentify does have to collect sensitive information, it will do so in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles.
2. Data Security
Edentify utilises reasonable and appropriate protections to ensure that Personal Information in its care is not misused or lost or accessed without proper authorisation. Access to Personal Information stored on Edentify servers is restricted to those employees, clients or contractors who require such access to perform a legitimate business purpose relating to the Services, maintenance, internal security or other related issues.
All Edentify employees and contractors, as a prerequisite for employment, are required to sign a strict and detailed confidentiality agreement in relation to the Personal Information that they will have access to.
3. Children’s Privacy
Edentify do not knowingly collect any information from any child under 14 years of age without permission from his/her parents or legal guardian.
4. Correction of Personal Information
Edentify takes reasonable steps to ensure that all Personal Information that it holds is accurate, complete and up to date.
Individuals should promptly notify Edentify if any Personal Information that we hold about them is incorrect or out of date.
5. Access to Personal Information
Members can access and update, amend or delete Personal Information at any time using their personal log in details.
Individuals seeking access to their Personal Information should contact Edentify directly. Edentify will process all requests for access within a reasonable time. In certain circumstances, we are permitted by the Australian Privacy Principles to deny requests for access or limit the access we provide. If we refuse or limit access to your Personal Information, we will tell you the reason why.
6. Changes to Privacy Policy, Opt-Out Process
