Privacy Statement

SearchWA Communications is committed to respecting and protecting your personal privacy.

Our Privacy Statement and the control you have regarding the information you give us are explained below.


What Does the SearchWA Communications Privacy Statement Cover?

This Privacy Statement applies to sites that have URLs (for example, www. _____.com.au) ending in searchwa.com.au. Inclusion of the SearchWA logo at the top of a web page does not necessarily mean that this Privacy Statement applies.


What Information Does SearchWA Communications Collect From You?

You can visit our site and use most of our services without having to tell us who you are or reveal any personally identifiable information to us. It is only when you use certain SearchWA services or enter contests that you will be asked to provide us with personally identifiable information.

Whenever you visit SearchWA, our web server logs automatically receive and record anonymous information from your web browser including your IP Address, SearchWA cookie information, the SearchWA page(s) you request, and any search terms you query. SearchWA uses this anonymous information to customize your experience on our site, to improve our services, and to show you more relevant advertising messages. Normally we do not attempt to link this information to a specific person, with certain important exceptions.

SearchWA uses personally identifiable information for three main purposes: to fulfil your requests for certain services, to personalise the advertising and content you see on our pages, and to tell you about new services.


Do Any Third Parties Receive or Collect Your Information Through SearchWA?

SearchWA Communications is a "for profit" commercial enterprise and, as such, engages Google and other third-party advertising companies to serve advertisements into our pages when you visit our website. These companies may use information about your visits (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number) to this and other websites in order to provide you with advertisements about goods and services that these third party advertising companies believe will be of interest to you. If you would like more information about this practice and would like to know your options in relation to not having information about your visits to our site used by these companies, please click here.

SearchWA Communications will not share personally identifiable information with other companies or individuals unless:
We have your express permission to share the information or we are required by law or in good-faith belief that such action is necessary to identify persons who may be violating the law of South Australia or the rights of third parties.

Except as above, SearchWA Communications will not sell or disclose your personally identifiable information to anyone.

What Security Measures Are in Place to Protect Your Information?

SearchWA Communications operates a secure data network protected by industry standard firewall and password protection. We have security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse or alteration of user data. Only certain employees have access to the information you provide us. They have access only for customer care, software maintenance, and web traffic analysis and are bound by the statements in this Privacy Statement.

How Will You Be Notified if SearchWA Communications Changes This Privacy Statement?

SearchWA Communications updates this policy from time to time so please review it periodically.
