Australian-Media.com.au Privacy Policy

We take the privacy of your personal information seriously. Because we gather certain types of information about our users, we want to help you understand the terms and conditions surrounding the collection and use of that information. This privacy statement discloses the types of information we gather about you and how we use it.

These privacy practices apply to Australian-Media.com.au and all of its sub-domains.

What information do you collect?

First and foremost, we do not collect any personally identifiable information from you unless you willingly provide it to us (eg: by creating an account on our site).

Our primary goal in collecting information about you is to provide you with the most useful content and services. The services and features that we offer on our site require you to provide us with certain information as a condition of usage, even if you browse our site as a "guest" (in which case the information collected will not be able to personally identify you).

The type of information that we collect from your visit to our site depends upon what you do during your visit.

We collect and store all of the information that your internet browser sends when it requests content from our server. This information includes your IP Address and PTR (reverse DNS) record, the current date and time, your username (only if you have registered an account on our site), your email address (only if you have registered an account on our site), and the complete URL of the page you visited on our site.

We use the information collected to measure the number of visitors to the different sections of our site, to help us make our site more useful to visitors and to assist us in identifying and resolving errors on our site (if applicable).

Will you share my information?

If you are just a casual user who visits our site and does nothing illegal, then the answer to this question is "absolutely not".

The only time that we will attempt to personally identify you and/or share any information we receive about you with any outside party is when we are required to by Australian law and/or in the event of a suspected attempt to misuse our site and/or server(s) with the intent to gain unauthorised access and/or to do physical damage to our site.

Does your site use cookies?

Your Internet browser has a feature called cookies, which allows us to store small amounts of data on your computer about your visit to any of our sites. You may not be able to use certain areas of our site if you do not have cookies enabled.

Cookies alone tell us nothing about who you are unless you specifically give us personally identifiable information, in which case we use the information to enhance your services in the ways described above.

We use cookies to store your AM account login information (with your password encrypted) to validate your login information with our servers. From time to time we also use cookies to store other temporary site-related information in order to make your visit to our site more user friendly.

We do not and cannot use cookies to track your browsing activity on other sites or to store any other personally identifiable information.

Do your advertisers collect information about me?

Some sections of our site contain advertisments which are supplied from a third-party provider. Australian-Media.com.au has no control over the content of these advertisments.

Our advertisers may use information (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services 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 this information collected and/or used by these companies, then click here.

How will I know if this privacy policy is changed?

Any modifications to this privacy policy will be mentioned on the front page of our site. If we are going to be using the information collected from users in a manner materially different from that stated in this privacy policy then we will, if possible, notify any affected users either on our site or by e-mail.

We do not guarantee you will receive a response, but be assured that all messages are reviewed and any action will be taken if necessary. We may also file your comments to improve the site, or we may simply choose to review and discard the information.
