Privacy Policy

I, Scott Morrison MP (I), know that privacy is important to you. This privacy policy reflects my respect for your privacy rights. This policy describes how I will deal with personally identifiable information that I collect through my website.

What is Personal Information?

When I talk about personal information, I mean information or an opinion about an individual where you can tell or reasonably work out who the information or opinion is about.

Collection

I will only collect personal information about you that is relevant to me. This may include general information such as your name, e-mail address, contact details and computer's IP address.

You can generally visit my website without revealing who you are or other personal information. Where reasonably possible, personal information is only collected when you knowingly provide it. For example, I may need to collect such information to provide you with information you have requested.

My purpose for collecting personal information should be clear when I collect it. If you are uncertain, please contact my office at the address below.

I may use technology to keep track of which email newsletters or sections of my website you visit for internal purposes, including to help me improve my website and other services.

Use and disclosure

I will only use your personal information as allowed by law. This means I may use it for the purpose it was collected, as disclosed to you at the time of collection, or as otherwise set out in this policy. If I want to use your information for any other purpose, I will first seek your consent unless I am not required to by law.

I generally only use or disclose your personal information to:

1. help me to improve my website and my parliamentary service;
2. provide you with information or other assistance you have requested;
3. tell you about any new developments, policies, opinions, activities or events I think may interest you;
4. other organisations that provide services to me, such as event organisers and other contractors (such as website developers and hosts); and
5. meet any legal requirements.

Any information submitted to appear on my website or in other Electronic Services, on bulletin boards or communicated in any chat areas, becomes public information. While we strive to protect and respect your privacy, I cannot guarantee the security of any information you submit through my website and you take full responsibility for the disclosure of such material.

If you believe personal information I hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, please advise me. I will generally take reasonable steps to correct your personal information where inaccuracies are identified. Security and integrity

I will take reasonable steps to keep your personal information secure, accurate, complete and up to date. If I no longer require your personal information, I will take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it. I do not take responsibility for the security of information that is outside my control such as when it is sent by post, courier, facsimile or over the Internet.

Changes to this policy

To keep up with regulatory, technical and other change, I may amend this policy from time to time by publishing the updated policy on my website. Please visit my website regularly to keep up to date with any changes.
