Apollo provides crowd funding [and recruitment] services (our “services”) including via our website at http://www.apolloleague.com (“website”).
We have created this privacy policy in order to demonstrate our commitment to thePrivacy Act 1988Cth(“Privacy Act”) and the Australian Privacy Principles, and specify how we may collect, hold, use or disclose Your Information.
We collect and hold Your Information, which may include your name, phone number, email, mailing address, place of birth, date of birth, citizenship, education and employment details (including occupation), age, sex, gender, previous business experience, and other information relevant to the supply of our services that is collected by us or that you choose to provide to us.
If you make any transaction through our website or otherwise purchase services or products from us, we may also collect your bank or credit card details for payment and details of your credit history and creditworthiness.
A person under the age of 18 years (“Minor”) cannot use our services unless they are supervised by a parent or guardian and that parent or guardian acts on behalf of the relevant Minor. Accordingly, we do not collect personal information from Minors and request that Minors do not submit such information to us.
We collect Your Information as part of providing and offering our services to you. This includes when you provide Your Information to us by: (i) registering to use our website; (ii) completing any forms on our website or as otherwise required by us (including, without limitation, when you fill out an application to be a director of a company or subscribe for shares in a company);(iii) making any requests or transactions through our website or otherwise by using our services; (iv) communicating with us in person, during phone calls, by email, or otherwise via customer enquiries or communications.
Generally, we collect Your Information directly from you, but we may also collect Your Information from other people or organisations if you have given your consent.
We only collect or hold Your Information where it is reasonably necessary for our business functions or activities.
In particular, we need Your Information to:
(a) set up your account (if any) on our website and to keep that account secure;
(b) provide you with our services (including by analysing Your Information, providing Your Information to companies seeking crowdfunding or other service providers, and processing transactions);
(c) keep and update internal records;
(d) communicate with you about our services;
(e) create and update our databases and other records;
(f) ensure compliance with our contractual and other legal obligations to you; and
(g) administer our relationship with you by responding to your enquiries,
(the “Main Purposes”).
If you do not provide us with Your Information we may not be able to carry out some or all of the Main Purposes.
By submitting Your Information to us, you consent to us using or disclosing Your Information for:
(a) the Main Purposes;
(b) any purpose related to the Main Purposes that could be reasonably anticipated at the time Your Information was collected (“Secondary Purpose”);
(c) any purpose to which you otherwise consent (including as disclosed to you in an information collection statement at the point where we collect Your Information); and
(d) any other purpose required or authorised by law (including the Privacy Act).
Secondary Purposes may include: improving our services; sending you direct marketing about our services, deals and promotions; conducting customer surveys; managing our relationship with you; monitoring how you interact with us on our website or other contact points; or helping you to complete an activity that you have chosen to undertake.
We may use certain non-personally identifiable information (such as anonymous usage data, IP addresses, browser or platform type etc.) to improve the quality of our services, and to create new features, promotions, functionality and services by storing, tracking, analysing and processing user preferences and trends as well as user activity and communications.
We will, if practicable, allow you to use a pseudonym or to not identify yourself (unless this is impractical or against the law (including the Privacy Act)).
In some instances, if you do not provide us with some of Your Information we may not be able to provide you with the relevant service, product or information. This may have an effect on whether we can begin or continue a relationship with you.
Generally speaking (and as described above under the heading “How do we use or disclose Your Information”) we will disclose Your Information for the Main Purposes. We may also disclose Your Information in other ways with your consent or to any other party where we are authorised or required to do so by law (including the Privacy Act).
We may disclose Your Information to our partners, suppliers, distributors and service providers in order to assist us in providing our services to you. Some of our service providers or the services they provide (like cloud storage services), may be based outside Australia, including in places like the United States of America. In order to protect Your Information, we take care where possible to work with service providers who we consider maintain acceptable standards of data security compliance, and we do our part to meet those standards as they apply to us. By providing us with Your Information, you consent to Your Information being used, stored and disclosed overseas (and acknowledge that no additional obligations that may apply to the overseas disclosure of personal information under the Privacy Act will apply).
We take all reasonable steps to keep Your Information secure and to ensure it is protected against misuse, loss, unauthorised access, modification or inappropriate disclosure. We may hold Your Information in both hard copy and electronic forms, but will store it in secure systems accessible only to authorised personnel.
When you visit our website, the server may attach a "cookie" to your computer's memory. A “cookie” assists us to store information about how you use our website and to make assumptions about what information may be of most interest to you. This information is generally not linked to your identity. We may use knowledge of your user experience to better understand what products or services may be of interest to you and to collect statistical information.
Our site may contain links to other websites, platforms or applications (including the websites of service providers such as lawyers, accountants, marketing and business experts, and the websites of those companies seeking crowdfunding). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of the owners of those websites, platforms, or applications. We recommend that you read the privacy policy of any website, platform, or application that asks you to provide Your Information.
We may need to change this privacy policy from time to time. When we do amend it, the changes will be effective immediately upon being made public on our website. We will use reasonable measures to notify you of any relevant changes to this privacy policy, but please be aware that it is your responsibility to review our privacy regularly and make sure you keep up to date with any changes.
You are responsible for ensuring that Your Information is accurate, current and complete and we encourage you to contact us to update Your Information if it changes at: [admin@apolloleague.com] or to amend Your Information via your account on our website (if any).
You may ask to access Your Information in accordance with the Privacy Act, including by asking us to provide you with a summary of Your Information that we hold subject to any limitations at law.
For your protection, we may require you to confirm your identity before access to Your Information is granted.
In most cases, we can provide you with a summary of Your Information free of charge. However, in some circumstances, reasonable costs may be charged to you in accessing Your Information in accordance with and subject to the Privacy Act or any other relevant law.
If you have a question or want to make a complaint about how we handle Your Information, please contact us using the details below. We will review any question, complaint or concern you may have and will respond to you after we have carefully considered it. We will, where reasonably possible, take steps to investigate and resolve complaints within 30 days. Please note, we may require further information from you in order to resolve any complaints. If we need more time, we will notify you about the reasons for the delay and seek to agree a longer period with you (if you do not agree, we may not be able to resolve your complaint). If we cannot resolve a complaint related to your privacy information, you may contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (“OAIC”) directly.
