Direct Marketing Materials

We may send you direct marketing communications and information about our products and services that we consider may be of interest to you. These communications may be sent in various forms, including mail, SMS, fax and email, in accordance with applicable marketing laws, such as the Spam Act 2003 (Cth). If you indicate a preference for a method of communication, we will endeavour to use that method whenever practical to do so. In addition, at any time you may opt-out of receiving marketing communications from us by contacting us (see the details below) or by using opt-out facilities provided in the marketing communications and we will then ensure that your name is removed from our mailing list.

Cookies

In some cases we may also collect your personal information through the use of cookies. When you access our website, we may send a “cookie” (which is a small summary file containing a unique ID number) to your computer. This enables us to recognise your computer and greet you each time you visit our website without bothering you with a request to register. It also enables us to keep track of products or services you view so that, if you consent, we can send you news about those products or services. We also use cookies to measure traffic patterns, to determine which areas of our website have been visited and to measure transaction patterns in the aggregate. We use this to research our users’ habits so that we can improve our online products and services. Our cookies do not collect personal information. If you do not wish to receive cookies, you can set your browser so that your computer does not accept them.

We may log IP addresses (that is, the electronic addresses of computers connected to the internet) to analyse trends, administer the website, track users movements, and gather broad demographic information.

Data quality, access and correction

You may request access to personal information we hold about you by making a written request. We will respond to your request within a reasonable period. We may charge you a reasonable fee for processing your request (but not for making a request for access).

We may decline a request for access to personal information in circumstances prescribed by the Privacy Act, and if we do, we will provide you with a written notice that sets out the reasons for the refusal (unless it would be unreasonable to provide those reasons).

If, upon receiving access to your personal information, or at any other time, you believe the personal information we hold about you is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date, please notify us immediately. We take reasonable steps to correct the information so that it is accurate, complete and up to date. If we refuse to correct your personal information, we will provide you with a written notice that sets out the reasons for our refusal (unless it would be unreasonable to provide those reasons) and provide you with a statement regarding the mechanisms available to you to make a complaint.

How do you make a privacy related complaint?

Any complaint will be investigated by the Privacy Officer and you will be notified of the making of a decision in relation to your complaint as soon as is practicable after it has been made, usually within 30 days.

  • anyone else to whom you authorise us to disclose it; and

  • anyone else where authorised by law.

Data security

As an information technology company, YesIT employs best practise systems and procedures to ensure the integrity and security of personal information held by the company. YesIT also employs physical and administrative safeguards. We hold personal information in either paper-based records, in secure access controlled premises or in electronic form in databases and email files which require logins and passwords. YesIT personnel are also contractually bound by confidentiality obligations.

Despite the high level of information security employed within YesIT and its commitment to your privacy, the company is unable to provide an absolute assurance that personal information will remain secure at all times. YesIT therefore does not accept any responsibility for incidences of unauthorised access to personal information, which is provided at your own risk. Likewise YesIT does not guarantee the security or privacy compliance of any websites that are accessible through links provided on any of its websites.

YesIT will delete from its systems any of your personal information held by the company on your request except where YesIT is required by law to retain the information.

We will use your personal information to engage in marketing unless you tell us otherwise. You can contact us to update your marketing preferences at any time.

Changes to our privacy policy

We may change this privacy policy from time to time. Any updated versions of this privacy policy will be posted on our website. Please review it regularly.
