Privacy Policy

Effective date: 1 August 2022

Fix'd Group Pty Limited and affiliates and affiliates (collectively, "Fix'd", "we", "us" or "our") respect your privacy and are committed to processing your personal information in accordance with applicable law.

This Privacy Policy ("Policy") applies to all websites, applications, and other services operated or furnished by Fix'd Group Pty Ltd linking to or posting this Policy (our "Services").

This Policy explains how we collect, use, maintain and disclose information collected about you, including when you visit or use our Services, or otherwise interact with us.

If you use our Services as part of an entity or organisation that has an agreement with Fix'd Group (such as your employer), the terms of that organisation's contract for your use of our Services may restrict our collection or use of your personal information further to what is described in this Policy.

Please read this Policy carefully to understand how we will collect, use, maintain and disclose your personal information. This Policy also describes your choices regarding use, access and correction of your personal information. By using our Services, you acknowledge and agree to the processing of your personal information as set out in this Policy.

Changes to this Policy

This Policy may be updated from time to time for reasons such as operational or regulatory changes. If we make any changes, we will notify you by posting the revised Policy on this page, revising the "Effective Date" at the top of this Policy and, in some cases, we may provide you with additional notice (such as adding a notice to our Services prior to the change becoming effective, or by sending you an email notification). We encourage you to periodically review our Policy for the latest information on our privacy practices and the ways you can help protect your privacy.

For the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (the "GDPR") and other applicable laws globally, the Fix'd entity that is responsible for your personal information (the "data controller") is the Fix'd entity in the jurisdiction where your personal information is collected.

Should there be no Fix'd entity in the jurisdiction where your personal information is collected, Fix'd Group Pty Ltd located at Level 5, 31 Brownlee Street Pinkenbah QLD 4008 is deemed to be the data controller responsible for your personal information.

What personal information do we collect?

When you use or access our Services or otherwise interact with us, we may collect a variety of information about you and others, as described below. Such information includes, but is not limited to, information about you which is in a form that permits us to identify you either on its own or in combination with other available information (your "personal information").

Information you provide to us. We collect information that you provide to us, or that someone on your behalf (such as your employer or account administrator) provides to us. For example, when you contact us about our Services, complete our "Request Demo" (or similar) online form, request our marketing materials, create a user account on our Services, access and use our Services, send an email via our Services, request customer support or technical assistance, attend an event, apply for a job with us, or communicate with us by phone, email, via third-party social media sites or otherwise. The types of information may include:

Contact data, such as your name, employer, job title, department, username or similar identifier, postal address, email address and telephone numbers.
Credentials, such as passwords, password hints or similar security information used for authentication and account access.
Marketing data, such as your preferences in receiving marketing from us, or information about your use of our products or services.
Event data, such as your contact data and a record of your participation in our events as an attendee or presenter.
Financial data, such as invoice information, bank account and payment card details to process payments.
Authentication data, such as information to complete know-your-client and/or anti-money laundering checks and property transactions; and
Candidate data, such as employment history, qualifications, academic qualifications and education records, and any other information that you provide to us when applying for a job with us, for example in your curriculum vitae, a covering letter, on an application form or during an interview, or that we have received from a recruitment agency or background check provider.

Fix'd will take all reasonable precautions to ensure the personal information it has collected remains correct and accurate. You can choose not to provide your personal information to Fix'd, however it may mean that we are unable to provide you with the Service required.

Information we collect automatically. When you use or access our Services, we may also collect certain information through automated means, including but not limited to some or all of the following:

Device data, such as information about your computer and about your visits to and use of our Services, including your IP address, inferred geographical location, browser type and version, operating system, and referral source. We also may collect any telephone number from which you contact us.

We may allow selected third parties to place cookies through the website to provide us with better insights into the use of the website or user demographics or to provide relevant advertising to you. These third parties may collect information about a user's online activities over time and across different websites when he or she uses our website.

These may include confidential or proprietary information about a company, or personal information relating to individuals. Fix'd will not access these documents or view their content in the normal course, unless instructed by the relevant customer or where required as part of our Services, such as to provide maintenance services or troubleshooting, etc. We process any personal information contained therein as a "service provider" or "data processor" (as defined by applicable law) on behalf of, and pursuant to the instructions of, our customers.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may also collect information about you from third party suppliers and government database services. We will process such information in line with this Policy and applicable law.

When Fix'd is acting as a data processor or service provider, Fix'd will process personal information in compliance with the instructions of its customers, who act as data controllers in respect of such data and will be responsible for ensuring that the personal information is appropriate and only processed for limited purposes.

Who do we disclose personal information to?

Any other third party where you have provided your consent.

We may disclose personal information to public authorities and other third parties, to comply with the law, applicable regulations, governmental and quasi-governmental requests, court orders or subpoenas, to enforce other agreements you may have with Fix'd, to protect our rights, property or safety or the rights, property or safety of our users or others (e.g., to a reporting agency for fraud protection) or as otherwise permitted by applicable law.

We may also share aggregated or anonymous information that cannot identify you with third parties. For example, we may share the number of visitors to our Services and what features were used.

We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal information and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal information for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal information for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

Children

Our Services are not directed to individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 18. If you become aware that an individual has provided us with personal information, please contact us using the contact details contained in the "Contact us" section at the beginning of this Policy. If we become aware that an individual under the age of 18 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information.

Security

We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. To prevent unauthorised access or disclosure we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures designed to safeguard and secure personal information we process. Some examples of the measures we take to help protect your personal information include:

the use of suitable password protection measures and access privileges to monitor and control access to our IT systems;
imposing restrictions on physical access to paper files;
requiring any third parties engaged by Fix'd to provide appropriate assurances to handle personal information in a manner consistent with applicable law; and
taking reasonable steps to securely destroy or de-identify personal information after we no longer need it for our business or to comply with the law.

However, the internet is not in itself a secure environment and we cannot give an absolute assurance that personal information submitted online will be secure at all times. Transmission of information over the internet is at your own risk and you should only enter, or instruct the entering of, information to the Service within a secure environment.

We recommend you take every precaution in protecting your personal information when you are on the Internet. For example, change your passwords at least once a year. Passwords should not include your name, date of birth or other personal data. A combination of upper and lower-case letters, numbers and symbols is recommended for less than 12 characters long passwords. Make sure you use a current antivirus and an up-to-date operating system and Internet browser. It is your responsibility to keep your password to our Services safe. You should notify us as soon as possible using the "Contact us" section at the beginning of this Policy if you become aware of any misuse of your password, and immediately change your password within the Services.

Storage of personal information

We will store your personal information in a form which permits your identification for no longer than is necessary for the purpose for which such personal information is processed. Please note, however, that we may retain and use your personal information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements and rights, or if it is not technically and/or reasonably feasible to remove it. Consistent with these requirements, and to the extent required or permitted (as the case may be) by applicable law, we will try to delete your personal information quickly upon request.

When Fix'd is acting as a data processor or service provider, when the provision of our Services to a customer cease, we will, as agreed with the customer, return or securely delete personal information processed on behalf of that customer, unless we are required to retain the personal information by applicable law.

Where we process your personal information on behalf of a Fix'd customer as a service provider or data processor, we will retain such information in line with our customer's instructions and our contractual obligations. You may have the right to ask the controller of your personal information to delete, block or correct such personal information in line with applicable data protection law.

Links to other websites or third party applications

Our websites may contain links to other websites of interest. You should note that we do not have any control over that other website. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites and such sites are not governed by this Policy. You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.

You are responsible for any transfers of data (including personal information) to third-party applications that you initiate within our Services. Fix'd has no control over, and takes no responsibility for, the privacy practices or content of these applications. You are responsible for checking the privacy policy of any such applications so that you can be informed of how they will handle personal information.

Your rights in relation to your personal information

You can always opt not to disclose information to us, but keep in mind some information may be needed to create a user account or to take advantage of some of the features of our Services, and other information about you may be collected automatically in connection with your use of our Services.

For personal information that we process on behalf of our customers, we are not responsible for and have no control over the privacy and data security practices of those customers, which may differ from those explained in this Policy. Except where the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (the "Australian Privacy Act") applies, the data protection rights listed below do not apply to Fix'd where we process personal information as a service provider or processor on behalf of a customer. If we process your personal information as a service provider or processor on behalf of a customer, and you wish to exercise any data protection rights you may have under applicable data protection laws, please inquire with the customer directly. Where the Australian Privacy Act applies to your personal information, you will have certain data protection rights regardless of whether Fix'd is a data controller or data processor.

Marketing communications. You can opt-out of receiving certain marketing communications from us at any time, by clicking the unsubscribe link in the email communications we send, or by contacting us using the details contained in the "Contact us" section at the beginning of this Policy. We may continue to send you non-promotional communications, such as service-related emails, billing information, and certain product updates via email.

Data protection rights. In certain circumstances you may have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal information that we hold about you - specifically:

Request access to your personal information. You may have the right to request information regarding our processing of your personal information and access to the personal information which we hold about you;
Request correction of your personal information. You may have the right to request that we correct your personal information if it is inaccurate or incomplete;
Request erasure of your personal information. You may have the right to request the deletion of your personal information in certain circumstances.
Request restriction of processing your personal information. Your may have the right to object to, and requesting that we restrict, our processing of your personal information in certain circumstances.
Request transfer of your personal information. You may have the right to request transfer of your personal information directly to a third party where this is technically feasible.

These rights may differ depending on where you live or where your personal information is collected or held. For example, where the Australian Privacy Act applies, you will have the right to request access to and/or correction of your personal information, but not the other rights listed above.

We will grant your request to exercise the above-mentioned rights to the extent required or permitted (as the case may be) by applicable law and in accordance with the timeframes (if any) prescribed by that applicable law. You can submit a request to exercise the above-mentioned rights, or raise a question, comment or complaint, by contacting us using the contact details contained in the "Contact us" section at the beginning of this Policy. We reserve the right to request the provision of additional information necessary to confirm the identity of the enquirer. Subject to applicable law, you may also have a right to make a complaint to the authority responsible for data protection in your country.

Subject to applicable laws, you may exercise the above data subject rights through a legal representative or delegated person, in which case we will verify whether the requesting party is a duly authorised representative. We may reject such request if there is justifiable reason for rejection under applicable laws.

How to make a complaint

If you believe that we have not complied with our obligations under this Policy or applicable data protection law, we ask that you contact us in the first instance to see if we can resolve the issue. We will investigate the complaint and determine whether a breach has occurred and what action, if any, to take. We will take any privacy complaint seriously and will aim to resolve any such complaint in a timely and efficient manner. However, you may have the right to make a complaint to an authority responsible for data protection in your country (or the country in which your information is collected and/or held). For example, if you are a resident of:

Australia, or your personal information is collected or held by us in Australia when we do business in Australia, we suggest you contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner at www.oaic.gov.au to make a formal compliant or for guidance on alternative courses of action which may be available to you. We are subject to the operation of the Australian Privacy Act in respect of personal information collected, used and disclosed in Australia, and will handle such personal information in accordance with this Policy so as to ensure we meet our obligations under the Australian Privacy Act.
New Zealand, you have a right to make a compliant to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner (New Zealand) at www.privacy.org.nz.
