Tutti Arts, the organisation who publishes Disjunction, is committed to protecting the privacy of our participants, subscribers, volunteers, collaborators and employees. We are committed to protecting the personal information you give to us.
Privacy Act
The Australian government’s Privacy Act 1988(Cth) includes 10 National Privacy Principles that apply to private sector organisations. This law tells us what information we can collect about you, how we use it, how we store it and who we can give that information to. For more information about the Privacy Act you can phone the Office of the Privacy Commissioner on 1300 363 992 or visit their website www.privacy.gov.au
What personal information do we collect and why?
When you supply your email address and opt to communicate with us, we may use this information to contact you about Disjunction (newsletters, new stories, active discussions etc). If you don’t want to receive information at any time, you can phone or email us and we will remove you from the database.
How do we collect information?
We collect both anonymous/de-identified and personal information in a number of ways, including:
- when you visit Disjunction’s website;
- when you enter your details to participate in online discussions;
- when you contribute to Disjunction as an author or artist case study.
Keeping your information secure
All information given to us is stored securely, whether it’s held on our database or in hard copy. Any personal information you provide to us can only be accessed by authorised staff members.
Confidentiality
Tutti Arts staff sign a confidentiality clause as part of their contracts. This means that they cannot disclose any personal information that you reveal to them (including information given during the course of a conversation) without your express permission.
Disclosing information
We do not give any other individual or organisation access to our database or mailing lists without your approval.
In some instances, contractors may have access to your personal details (for example, as part an outside company maintaining this website). Tutti Arts will ensure that those contractors are also bound by the same privacy requirements of its employees.
How to access your personal information
If you would like to access the information we hold about you, you’ll need to contact Tutti Arts in writing. We will endeavour to give you access to your information within 10 working days. In order to maintain the confidentiality of your personal information, we will ask for specific identification before we can give you access.
If the information we hold is incorrect or not up to date we will make changes as soon as possible.
In the unlikely event that we are unable to provide you with access to your personal information for legal reasons, we will provide you with reasons for denying access.
