This page outlines Mater's policy towards on-line information privacy.
Mater Misericordiae Health Services Brisbane Limited ACN 096 708 922 (Mater) acknowledges and respects the privacy of individuals. This statement discloses our collection, use and disclosure of personal information practices in relation to Mater Web sites.
The Mater Web site may have links to other Web sites. Once you leave Mater's domain (exceptional.org.au) and go to another site you are subject to the privacy policy of the new site.
When you access a Mater Web site Mater may record your server address, domain name, the date and time of your visit, the pages viewed, the information downloaded and the frequency of visits.
Mater may also record information about the types of browsers that are being used to visit Mater sites. Mater uses this information for Web site and system administration, including monitoring to prevent security breaches, to assist Mater in further development and to improve the functionality of the site.
Mater does not sell or trade in personal information, or allow third parties to use that personal information for their own purposes. The exception to this is where Mater may be required by law to disclose certain information.
Mater will take reasonable steps to ensure that all information Mater collects, uses or discloses is accurate, complete, up to date, stored in a secure environment and accessed only by authorised persons. Mater aims to achieve best industry practice in the security of personal information which Mater holds.
It is Mater's policy to destroy personal information once there is no longer a legal or business need for Mater to retain such information.
Mater will provide access to personal information upon request by an individual, unless a request is unreasonable and the National Privacy Principles would permit us to decline that access (e.g. where granting access would infringe another persons privacy or where the request for access is frivolous or vexatious).
If you believe that the information Mater holds about you is incorrect, or if you have concerns about how Mater is handling your personal information, or you want to organise access to the information Mater holds about you, please contact the Webmaster.
