Privacy Policy
Bod Australia Pty Ltd (ABN 89 601 225 441) (“Bod Australia” “Bod Pharmaceuticals” “website” “we”, “us”), respects individual privacy and the rights of individuals to control their personal information. Bod Australia and our third party contractors are bound by the Australian privacy laws, including the APPs set out in the Privacy Act 1968 (Cth) in respect of the collection, use, disclosure and handling of your personal information and to the extent applicable, the European Union (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) where we collect, use or disclose personal data relating to identifiable UK, EU or Californian residents. This Privacy Policy describes how we manage any personal information we have about you. By accessing or using this website and providing your personal information to us, you agree to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information in the manner described in this Privacy Policy.
Types of Information Collected and Stored
Under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), “personal information” means “information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable”. The information/opinion does not have to be recorded in writing or be true.
Bod Australia collects and processes personal information about you that is reasonably necessary for us to perform our functions and activities, including providing information on our website. If you do not provide this personal information, it may limit the services we can provide to you, and we will be unable to process your information requests. The types of personal information that we collect includes:
- your name;
- postcode;
- mobile phone number;
- email address; and
- images (of you or otherwise) that are uploaded to our websites or social media channels and electronic newsletters that we distribute.
We will not collect sensitive information about you without your specific consent or in the circumstances permitted in the Australian privacy legislation, such as personal information about your health, race, political opinion etc. We will store information collected about you securely and access will only be allowed to those authorised and then only for the purpose for which it was collected and in the case of sensitive information for the purpose for which you have provided consent. Collection and processing of personal information may occasionally be carried out by our third-party contractors; we will take reasonable measures to ensure that any such third-party contractors are aware of and comply with this Privacy Policy. We will take reasonable steps to ensure that all personal information is kept secure in accordance with reasonable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures.
Except if your information is required to be retained under an Australian law, or a court/tribunal order, we will hold your information until you notify us that you no longer wish to be contacted by us or, for EU, UK or Californian residents, until you request that we erase your data.
Why We Collect and How We Use Your Personal Information
We will use or disclose your personal information only for the purpose for which you provide it to us or otherwise as described in this Privacy Policy or as permitted by the APPs. We will not use or disclose personal information about you for any secondary purpose, unless you consent to that use or disclosure; or you would reasonably expect the use or disclosure in the circumstances related to the primary purpose for which we have collected the information. The purposes for which we may use or disclose your personal information include without limitation:
to provide you with any services or goods that you may request, including information, follow-up services or materials;
- use of your details to be sent to a third party (such as a clinic, prescriber or doctor).
- to respond to any query or complaint that you may make;
- for any other purposes required or authorised by law or a court/tribunal order;
- to make product and purchase recommendations or offers to you;
- to review, assess and improve our services;
- to carry out direct marketing and social media marketing activities (including posting); and
- to help us analyse and predict consumer behaviour (but only where the information is aggregated and anonymous).
Security
We will take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold from:
- misuse, interference and loss; and
- unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
We make every effort to follow industry standard security measures for personal information under our control. Only authorised staff and consultants have access (on a restricted basis) to the personal information we collect. We regularly review developments in security and encryption technologies. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed as totally secure. Accordingly, although we endeavour to protect information you transmit to us, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of that information, and you transmit it at your own risk. You may be able to configure your browser to advise you whether the information you are sending us will be secure (encrypted) or not secure (unencrypted). Once we receive your transmission, we take reasonable steps to protect the information on our own systems. For more information, you might like to refer to the OAIC Guide to Information Security, at:
https://www.oaic.gov.au/
Destruction and De-identification of Personal Information
We will take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify personal information if:
- we no longer need to use or disclose the information in any of the ways we are entitled to use or disclose it under the APPs or applicable privacy laws; or
- we are not legally required to keep the information.
