We also collect anonymous non-personal information about how you use our website and “cookie” based information that makes your use of our website easier by recording your preferences so that when you return to our website the “cookie” re-loads that information into your web browser.
Why do we need to collect personal information?
We use your information to establish and enhance our relationship with users, to enable you to download information and materials from the Website, to provide you with access to all parts of the Website, and, if applicable, to confirm order details or process payments for orders.

General information about visits to our websites is collected by our computer servers, with small files (“cookies”) that our websites transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your web browser (if you allow the delivery of “cookies”). The “cookies” are used to follow the pattern of movements of users by letting us know which pages on our Website are visited, in what order and how often. This anonymous non-personal information that we collect and analyse is not personal information as described in the Privacy Act. When you access our website, a small file containing a unique identification (ID) number may be downloaded by your web browser and stored in the cache of your computer. The purpose of sending these files with a unique ID number is so that our Website can recognise your computer when you next visit our Website. The “cookies” that are shared with your computer can't be used to discover any personal information such as your name, address or email address they merely identify your computer to our websites when you visit us. We can also log the internet protocol address (IP address) of visitors to our website so that we can work out the countries in which the computers are located.
We may collect information using “cookies” and other tracking technologies for the following reasons:
1. to help us monitor the performance of our Website so that we can improve the operation of the Website and the services we offer;
2. to provide personalised services to each user of our Website to make their navigation through our website easier and more rewarding to the user; and
3. when we have permission from the user, to market the services we provide by sending emails that are personalised to what we understand are the interests of the user.
Even if you have given us permission to sent you emails, you can, at any time, decide not to receive further emails and will be able to “unsubscribe” from that service.
If you are unhappy about having a cookie sent to you, you can set your browser to refuse cookies or choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent.
How do we store your information?
We store user information on our networks in Australia and take reasonable steps to protect users’ Personal Information from interference or loss or unauthorised access, modification or disclosure, including: the implementation of physical, electronic, and managerial procedures, password access and firewalls.
