We are committed to respecting your privacy. Our Privacy Policy sets out how we collect, use, store and disclose your personal information. Where applicable, we are bound by the Australian Privacy Principles contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Privacy Act) and the Health Records and Information Privacy Act 2002 (NSW).

In this Privacy Policy, we describe the key ways in which we typically handle personal information and sensitive information in the ordinary course of our business.

What personal information do we collect?

The types of personal information we collect will depend on how and why you engage with us, and may include the following types of personal information:

The types of personal information we collect about you will also depend on how you choose to interact with us and what you tell us during those interactions. We generally keep records of interactions, whether they are by email, phone, using forms through our website, in person or through social media.

Our website may use cookies to collect data about your device ID, device type, geo-location information, computer and connection information, statistics on page views, traffic to and from the sites, ad data, IP address and standard web log information as described in the “Using our website and cookies” section of this Privacy Policy.

How do we collect personal information?

We may collect these types of personal information either directly from you, or from third parties. We may collect this information when you:

In some cases, specific collection notices or informed consent forms provided at the time of a clinical trial or research study will override or supplement this general Privacy Policy.

In some circumstances, we may collect personal information about you from third parties. For example, we may receive an application for employment from a recruiter you have engaged or we may receive a referral in relation to the provision of consulting services. Also, if you are a patient of a hospital or medical clinic with which we work, or a participant in a clinical trial or research program we run or with which we are affiliated, it is possible that a hospital or clinic may choose to provide some of your personal information to us. Where it is lawful and practicable, we will take reasonable steps to notify you that we have received your information from a third party, unless doing so would be unreasonable or impracticable in the circumstances.

Why do we collect, use and disclose personal information?

We generally use your personal information for the primary purpose for which we collected it. We generally collect, hold, use and disclose your personal information for one or more of the following purposes:

We may also disclose your personal information to a trusted third party who also holds other information about you. This third party may combine that information in order to enable it and us to develop de-identified or aggregated data consumer insights so that we can better understand your preferences and interests, personalise your experience and enhance the products and services that you receive.

Do we use your personal information for direct marketing?

We may use your personal information, including your contact details, to provide you with information we think will interest you about our business, research, products or services, where we have your express or inferred consent. This may include emails, SMS, mail or other forms of communication, in accordance with the Spam Act and the Privacy Act. You may opt-out of receiving marketing materials from us by contacting us using the details set out below or by using the opt-out facilities provided (eg an unsubscribe link).

When might we disclose your personal information?

We may disclose your personal information to third parties where this disclosure is for one of the primary purposes for which we collected it.

In the ordinary course of our business, we may disclose personal information for the purposes described in this privacy policy to:

Disclosure of personal information outside Australia

We may disclose personal information outside of Australia to our Scientific Advisory Board members, consultants and other third party suppliers, including information technology and communications services providers such as cloud providers. Some of the IT systems we use store personal information outside Australia in countries such as the USA. Some of our Scientific Advisory Board members and consultants are also located in the USA.

To the extent permitted by law, including the Privacy Act, when you provide your personal information to us, you consent to the disclosure of your information outside of Australia and acknowledge that we are not required to ensure that overseas recipients handle that personal information in compliance with Australian Privacy Law. We will, however, take reasonable steps to ensure that any overseas recipient will deal with such personal information in a way that is consistent with the Australian Privacy Principles.
