Through these varied operations, WRS from time to time gathers information from Customers and other parties with whom we deal for a variety of reasons including, in particular, to enable us to improve the nature of the services we provide. WRS understands individuals’ concerns regarding confidentiality and takes seriously its obligations in respect of all information it gathers. To safeguard that information, WRS has implemented a program to ensure compliance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the National Privacy Principles (“NPPs”). This Privacy Policy outlines how WRS deals with Personal Information.
2. Why WRS Collects Personal Information2.1 Nature of InformationThe information WRS collects in most cases relates to productions but can relate to suppliers and other parties we deal with (for the purposes of this Privacy Policy all such people are described as (“Customers”). Information is gathered for a range of purposes, including the provision of ongoing Customer support. WRS treats all such information which is collected and identifiable as relating to an individual as Personal Information. It is this information which is described as “Personal Information” for the purposes of this Privacy Policy. 2.2 Collection of InformationIn accordance with the NPPs, where practical, Customers of WRS may deal with WRS on an anonymous basis. However, as a provider of a wide range of services, WRS frequently finds that it is necessary to collect Personal Information during the course of transactions. Personal Information may be collected about Customers via the following means: 2.3 Information Given to CustomersWhen Personal Information is collected from a Customer, they are advised at the time of collection or as soon as practical after its collection as to:(a) WRS’S contact details; (b) the purpose of collection; (c) the fact that the Customer can gain access to the Personal Information; (d) the types of organisations to which their Personal Information may be disclosed; (e) any law that requires the Personal Information to be collected; and (f) the key consequences if all or some of the information cannot be collected. Where WRS collects Personal Information about a Customer from a third party, and the Customer has not previously consented to that third party providing the information to WRS, WRS will, where reasonable and practical, provide the Customer with the following information about that third party: (g) the third party’s contact details; (h) the purpose of collection; (i) the fact that the Customer can gain access to the Personal Information; (j) the types of organisations to which their Personal Information may be disclosed by that third party; (k) any law that requires the Personal Information to be collected; and (l) the key consequences if all or some of the information cannot be collected. 2.4 Sensitive InformationWRS will not ask a Customer for information revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, or details of health, disability or sexual activity or orientation, unless:(a) the Customer provides their consent; (b) the collection of that information is specifically authorised by law; (c) the collection is necessary to lessen a serious or imminent threat to the health or safety of a person; or (d) the collection of the information is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of a legal claim. 2.5 Customer ConsentWherever practical, WRS will obtain the express consent of Customers to the collection of Personal Information. In some situations, WRS will interpret a Customer’s actions as indicating that a Customer consents to the collection of Personal Information. This may occur where the Customer has provided Personal Information for a particular purpose and that purpose cannot be achieved without WRS making use of the Customer’s Personal Information.2.6 What Happens if Personal Information is Not ProvidedWhere relevant, WRS will endeavour to make Customers aware that WRS may not be able to provide a proper service to them if Personal Information is not provided upon request.
3. Maintenance and Management of Personal Information3.1 Who May View Personal InformationIn general, only officers, employees or contractors of WRS may view Personal Information.WRS will only grant access to parties other than WRS’S officers, employees and contractors to view Personal Information where WRS believes that access is necessary to achieve the purpose for which the Personal Information was collected. WRS will only disclose Personal Information to parties other than WRS’S officers, employees and contractors if: (a) that disclosure is required to give effect to the purposes for which WRS collected the Personal Information; (b) the Customer has consent to that disclosure; (c) WRS believes that the disclosure may lessen a risk of harm to the health or safety of any person; (d) WRS believes an unlawful activity is being undertaken and the Personal Information is disclosed as part of WRS’S investigation into this activity; (e) WRS is required by law to disclose the Personal Information; or (f) the disclosure is required for the enforcement of a criminal law or a law imposing a pecuniary penalty or for the protection of public revenue. 3.2 International TransfersIf Personal Information is transferred overseas, WRS will wherever practical obtain the relevant Customer’s written consent before doing so. If obtaining the Customer’s consent is not practical, then the information may still be transferred if, as part of the agreement for the transfer of that information, the other organisation agrees to comply with WRS’S privacy obligations to that Customer.3.3 IdentificationWRS does not use any prohibited identifiers (such as a tax file number) to identify its Customers.3.4 Storage and SecurityPersonal Information may be stored in either hard copy form or on computer or both. Hard copy Personal Information is wherever practical. Personal Information stored on computer is wherever practical, password protected.Where possible and practical, WRS will endeavour to comply with recognised Australian and international standards relating to information security. WRS regularly deletes and de-identifies Personal Information if the information is no longer needed by WRS. 3.5 Updating Personal InformationWRS regularly monitors the quality and accuracy of Personal Information that it maintains and where practical, updates that information on a regular basis. Customers can update their Personal Information at any time by contacting WRS’S Privacy Officer.
4. MinorsWRS has adopted the position proposed by the Privacy Commissioner that a young person is able to give their consent when he or she has a sufficient understanding and maturity to understand what is being proposed. When obtaining personal information from minors, WRS staff will make an objective determination before collecting that information as to whether the persons involved would be able to provide informed consent to the use of their personal information.
5. Access to Personal InformationCustomers may access their Personal Information by contacting WRS’S Privacy Officer. Access is generally granted within 30 days of that request. WRS may impose a reasonable charge for access.
6. WRS may Withhold Access to Personal Information6.1 When Access can be WithheldAccess to Personal Information may be withheld in a number of circumstances. These include where:(a) providing access would pose a serious and imminent threat to the life or health of a person; (b) providing access would have an unreasonable impact on the privacy of others; (c) the information is subject to confidentiality where the person who provided the information to WRS did so expressly on the condition that it remains confidential; (d) the request is vexatious or frivolous; (e) the information relates to current or anticipated legal proceedings between WRS and the person and the information would not be required to be discovered to a court; (f) WRS is in commercial negotiations with the person and the information would reveal WRS’S intentions; (g) providing access would be unlawful or WRS is required by a law to withhold access; or (h) providing access could prejudice the investigation or detection by WRS or by a government body of an unlawful activity or some serious or improper misconduct. Where WRS does withhold Personal Information, WRS may instead choose to give the Customer a summary of that information. 6.2 Written ReasonsIf WRS does withhold Personal Information, WRS will provide written reasons.6.3 Third Party IntermediaryIf WRS withholds access to Personal Information, WRS will consider whether the provision of access to an independent third party will meet WRS’S and the relevant Customer’s needs.
