Privacy Policy The Australasian Chapter of the International Erosion Control Association (IECA (Aust) believes that your privacy is an extremely important right that you have as an individual and as an organisation. We are totally committed to ensuring your personal information provided to us is treated professionally and is protected from unauthorised access. "Personal information" means any information we hold about you from which your identity can be determined. Collection of Information IECA (Aust) will only collect necessary personal information directly from you unless doing so is impractical or unreasonable. At or before collection we will take reasonable steps to ensure that you are aware of the reason and purpose for collecting your personal information and to the extent to which that information may be disclosed. IECA (Aust) needs to collect personal information from you so that we can set up and administer our database. Generally the information that we collect comprises name, address, contact details (incl. phone, fax, email, mobile) and other relevant information. Use and Disclosure Personal Information will only be used for the purpose it was given. It will be used for other purposes only if consent to the purpose is expressed or implied. The use/disclosure is related to the main purpose of collection and you would reasonably expect it to be so used in such way, or it is required by law or some other compulsion to disclose such information as is permitted in the National Privacy Principle 2. Quality and Security IECA (Aust) will make every reasonable effort to ensure the security of your personal information held with us and that this information is complete, accurate and up to date whenever we collect or use it. If you find that the personal information is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date, please contact us immediately and it will be updated. Your information will be destroyed or de-identified immediately it is no longer required. Access IECA (Aust) will, upon your request, give you access to your personal information held by us. IECA (Aust) will deal with your request to provide access to your personal information within a reasonable amount of time.
