1. Purpose
This Online Privacy Policy relates to the processing of personally identifiable information (PII) as defined by the Privacy Act 1988 (Privacy Act) of Australia.
The policy sets out the different areas where user privacy is concerned and outlines our obligations to you when collecting, storing, and securing your data.
Although Identifly is not obliged to adhere to the requirements of the Privacy Act, we endeavour to uphold and work to the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).

At the time of completing the online requests for personal information you will be informed as to the purpose of data collection.
Results of surveys are tracked and stored in a database for future analysis and evaluation. This information is used to refine the services and future information sessions, blogs and training services.
We will retain personal information for up to 1 year (unless deletion is requested) after last contact with an individual for the purpose of offering services related to the original survey. Your details will not be passed on to any third parties.

Visa / Passport / Birth Certification – to verify your ‘right to work’ in Australia.
We may retain your application and contact details for up to 6 months as there may not be an immediate opportunity available for you. At this point we may contact you to request consent to further retain your details if we believe that you remain a good fit for the company.
3.3. Rights of Data Subject
You have a right under thePrivacy Act to contact us at any time in writing to hey@identifly.com.au to find out what information we have related to you. You may also request to have your personal information amended or deleted from our records. We will oblige your request unless there is a statutory requirement for us to retain the data for a specific period of time.
4. Information Security
We take Information Security seriously and endeavour to adequately protect information provided to us through the course of our services to prevent loss of Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability. We align with the ASD Essential 8 Maturity Model and we undertake periodic compliance audits.
The collection, use, storage and disposal of personal information is managed in accordance with best practice in Information Security.
There are inherent risks associated with the transmission of information over the internet, including via email. You should be aware of this when sending personal information to us via email, via our website or social media platforms.
We will only record your email and contact details when you send a message to us, subscribe to a newsletter, complete a survey, or provide a business card. We will only use this information for the purpose for which it was collected.
