Green Pea Software Pty Ltd (GreenPea) is committed to providing you with the highest levels of customer service. This includes protecting your privacy. From 2004, we are bound by new sections of the Commonwealth Privacy Act 1988, which set out a number of principles concerning the protection of your personal information. This statement, called "Protecting Your Privacy", sets out important information about privacy protections:

GreenPea collects personal information in a number of ways, including:

• directly from you, such as when you provide information by email, by Web form, by phone or in documents such as a paper form;
• from third parties such as our related companies, credit reporting agencies or your representatives;
• from publicly available sources of information;
• from the organisations identified below under "When we disclose your personal information";
• from our own records of how you use our services

Your personal information may be used to:

• identify you;
• provide the services you require;
• administer and manage those services, including charging, billing and collecting debts;
• inform you of ways the services provided to you could be improved;
• research and develop our services;
• maintain and develop our business systems and infrastructure, including testing and upgrading of these systems

Your personal information is also collected to promote and market to you other services which we consider may be of interest to you. Before we do so, we will provide you with an opportunity to give us permission to send you marketing or promotional material (such as promotional email offers), via an opt-in mechanism. That is, we will send you such material only if you elect to receive it or if it is provided to you in response to your request. You may also notify us at any time that you do not wish to receive marketing or promotional material by advising the Privacy Officer in writing at the address below.

For the purposes set out above (under "How we use your personal information") we may disclose your personal information to organisations outside GreenPea. Where appropriate, these disclosures are subject to privacy and confidentiality protections. The organisations to which we usually disclose information include:

• outsourced service providers who manage the services we provide to you, including:
  • billing and debt-recovery functions;
  • information technology and consulting services;
  • installation, maintenance and repair services;
• your representatives (eg. your authorised representatives or legal advisers);
• credit reporting and fraud checking agencies;
• our professional advisers, including but not limited to our software developers, project managers, accountants, auditors and lawyers;
• government and regulatory authorities and other organisations, as required or authorised by law;
• our related companies.

GreenPea takes all reasonable precautions to ensure that the personal information we collect, use and disclose is accurate, complete and up-to-date. However, the accuracy of the information we hold depends to a large extent on the information you provide. That's why we recommend you:

• let us know if there are any errors in your personal information; and
• keep us up to date with changes to your personal information such as your name or address or contact details.

You have a right to access your personal information, subject to some exceptions allowed by law. If you would like to do so, please let us know by sending an email using the Contact Us page. You may be required to put your request in writing for security reasons. GreenPea reserves the right to charge a fee for searching for and providing access to your information.

We take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is stored securely. Credit card information is among the most important data we collect. For obvious reasons, please do not send credit card information through unsecured email.

Please be aware that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information over the Internet (for example: in discussion forums, via email, or in chat sites) that this information can be collected and used by others. In short, if you post personal information in publicly accessible online forums, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return.

If you have any questions in relation to privacy, please do not hesitate to contact us.
