SECURITY & PRIVACY POLICY

This site is owned and operated by the Australian-Italian Leaders of Tomorrow (ALTO). The privacy of visitors to our site is of primary importance to us. We receive certain information from and about our visitors. Here are our undertakings regarding the security and privacy of that information.

FOUR TYPES OF INFORMATION

We receive four types of information about our visitors:

  • Personal information may be submitted voluntarily by visitors and our members (such as by signing up for a membership);
  • Visitors may, at their own option, provide contact details to receive our electronic newsletters, or voluntarily participate in polls and surveys;
  • Information which is collected from publicly available sources, and
  • Geographical and other aggregated statistical information which is received from our ISP. No individual visitor’s identity is divulged. No individual or personal information is involved.

COLLECTING INFORMATION

ALTO collects, holds and uses personal information for a number of purposes including:

  • to facilitate networking events;
  • to provide technology services and solutions;
  • to respond to requests or queries;
  • to maintain contact with clients and wider networks;
  • to keep our clients and contacts informed of our developments;
  • to notify of seminars and other professional and social events;
  • for administrative purposes;
  • for recruitment purposes;
  • for referral purposes;
  • when engaging service providers, contractors or suppliers relating to the operation of ALTO;
  • to conduct surveys and to seek feedback;
  • to meet any regulatory obligations; and
  • for any other purposes of a business-related nature

DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES

Your privacy is important to us. We do not disclose personal information to third parties for the purpose of allowing them to send marketing material to you. However, we may share non-personal, de-identified or aggregated information to them for research or promotional purposes.

We may use personal information for new, unanticipated uses not previously disclosed in our privacy notice. If our information practices change at some time in the future we will use them for these new purposes only, and data collected from the time of the policy change forward will adhere to our updated practices.

SECURITY

ModelOff operates secure data networks protected by industry standard firewall and password protection systems. Credit card details are transmitted using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encrypted protocol. The SSL padlock icon is displayed bottom right corner of the appropriate pages, verifying you are operating in a secure environment.

ACCESSING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

A person may request to access personal information about them held by ALTO, subject to exceptions permitted by law. We may apply an administrative charge for providing access to your personal information in response to a request. Such a request must be made in writing to the address below. ALTO will grant a person access to their personal information as soon as possible, subject to the circumstances of the request.

A request to access personal information will be rejected if:

  1. the request is frivolous or vexatious;
  2. providing access would have an unreasonable impact on the privacy of another person;
  3. providing access would pose a serious and imminent threat to the life or health of any person;
  4. providing access would prejudice ALTO’s legal rights; or
  5. there are other legal grounds to deny the request.
