1. Collection
Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will only collect personal information which is necessary for the operation of its business.

Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will only collect such information by lawful and fair means and not in an unreasonably intrusive way.

At or before the time (or, if that is not practicable, as soon as practicable after) Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited collects personal information about an individual from the individual, Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will take reasonable steps to ensure that the individual is aware of:

a) the identity of the organisation and how to contact it; and

c) the purposes for which the information is collected; and
d) the organisations (or the types of organisations) to which Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited usually discloses information of that kind; and
e) any law that requires the particular information to be collected; and
f) the main consequences (if any) for the individual if all or part of the information is not provided.

If it is reasonable and practicable to do so, Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will only collect personal information about an individual only from that individual.

If Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited collects personal information about an individual from someone else, it will take reasonable steps to ensure that the individual is or has been made aware of the matters listed above except to the extent that making the individual aware of the matters would pose a serious threat to the life or health of any individual.

(ii) the individual would reasonably expect Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited to use or disclose the information for the secondary purpose; or
b) the individual has consented to the use or disclosure; or

(ii) Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will not charge the individual for giving effect to a request by the individual to Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited not to receive direct marketing communications; and
(iii) the individual has not made a request to Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited not to receive direct marketing communications; and
(iv) in each direct marketing communication with the individual, Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited draws to the individual’s attention, or prominently displays a notice, that he or she may express a wish not to receive any further direct marketing communications; and
(v) each written direct marketing communication by Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited with the individual (up to and including the communication that involves the use) sets out Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited’s business address and telephone number and, if the communication with the individual is made by fax, telex or other electronic means, a number or address which Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited can be directly contacted electronically; or
d) if the information is health information and the use or disclosure is necessary for research, or the compilation or analysis of statistics, relevant to public health or public safety:
(i) it is impractical for Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited to seek the individual’s consent before the use or disclosure; and
(ii) the use or disclosure is conducted in accordance with guidelines approved by the Commissioner under section 95A for the purposes of this subparagraph; and
(iii) in the case of disclosure – Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited reasonably believes that the recipient of the health information will not disclose the health information, or personal information derived from the health information; or

(i) a serious and imminent threat to an individual’s life, health or safety; or
(ii) a serious threat to public health or public safety; or
f) Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited has reason to suspect that unlawful activity has been, is being or may be engaged in, and uses or discloses the personal information as a necessary part of its investigation of the matter or in reporting its concerns to relevant persons or authorities; or
g) the use or disclosure is required or authorised by or under law; or
h) Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited reasonably believes that the use or disclosure is reasonably necessary for one or more of the following by or on behalf of an enforcement body:
(i) the prevention, detection, investigation, prosecution or punishment of criminal offences, breaches of a law imposing a penalty or sanction or breaches of a prescribed law;
(ii) the enforcement of laws relating to the confiscation of the proceeds of crime;
(iii) the protection of the public revenue;
(iv) the prevention, detection, investigation or remedying of seriously improper conduct or prescribed conduct;
(v) the preparation for, or conduct of, proceedings before any court or tribunal, or implementation of the orders of a court or tribunal.
If Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited uses or discloses personal information under paragraph (h), it must make a written note of the use or disclosure.
The above operates in relation to personal information that Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited has collected from a related body corporate as if Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited’s primary purpose of collection of the information were the primary purpose for which the related body corporate collected the information.
3. Data quality
Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will take reasonable steps to make sure that the personal information it collects, uses or discloses is accurate, complete and up-to-date.
4. Data security
Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will take reasonable steps to protect the personal information it holds from misuse and loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will take reasonable steps to destroy or permanently de-identify personal information if it is no longer needed for any purpose for which the information may be used or disclosed under National Privacy Principles.
5. Openness
Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will set out in a document clearly expressed policies on its management of personal information. Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will make the document available to anyone who asks for it.

On request by a person, Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will take reasonable steps to let the person know, generally, what sort of personal information it holds, for what purposes, and how it collects, holds, uses and discloses that information.
6. Access and correction
If Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited holds personal information about an individual, it will provide the individual with access to the information on request by the individual, except to the extent that:

a) in the case of personal information other than health information – providing access would pose a serious and imminent threat to the life or health of any individual; or
b) in the case of health information – providing access would pose a serious threat to the life or health of any individual; or
c) providing access would have an unreasonable impact upon the privacy of other individuals; or
d) the request for access is frivolous or vexatious; or
e) the information relates to existing or anticipated legal proceedings between Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited and the individual, and the information would not be accessible by the process of discovery in those proceedings; or
f) providing access would reveal the intentions of Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited in relation to negotiations with the individual in such a way as to prejudice those negotiations; or
g) providing access would be unlawful; or
h) denying access is required or authorised by or under law; or
i) providing access would be likely to prejudice an investigation of possible unlawful activity; or
j) providing access would be likely to prejudice:
(i) the prevention, detection, investigation, prosecution or punishment of criminal offences, breaches of a law imposing a penalty or sanction or breaches of a prescribed law; or
(ii) the enforcement of laws relating to the confiscation of the proceeds of crime; or
(iii) the protection of the public revenue; or
(iv) the prevention, detection, investigation or remedying of seriously improper conduct or prescribed conduct; or
(v) the preparation for, or conduct of, proceedings before any court or tribunal, or implementation of its orders;
by or on behalf of an enforcement body; or
k) an enforcement body performing a lawful security function asks Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited not to provide access to the information on the basis that providing access would be likely to cause damage to the security of Australia.

However, where providing access would reveal evaluative information generated within Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited in connection with a commercially sensitive decision-making process, Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited may give the individual an explanation for the commercially sensitive decision rather than direct access to the information.

If Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited is not required to provide the individual with access to the information because of one or more of paragraphs above, Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited must, if reasonable, consider whether the use of mutually agreed intermediaries would allow sufficient access to meet the needs of both parties.

If Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited charges for providing access to personal information, those charges:

a) must not be excessive; and
b) must not apply to lodging a request for access.

If Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited holds personal information about an individual and the individual is able to establish that the information is not accurate, complete and up-to-date, Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will take reasonable steps to correct the information so that it is accurate, complete and up-to-date.

If the individual and Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited disagree about whether the information is accurate, complete and up-to-date, and the individual asks Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited to associate with the information a statement claiming that the information is not accurate, complete or up-to-date, Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will take reasonable steps to do so.

Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will provide reasons for denial of access or a refusal to correct personal information.
7. Identifiers
Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will not adopt as its own identifier of an individual an identifier of the individual that has been assigned by:

a) an agency; or
b) an agent of an agency acting in its capacity as agent; or
c) a contracted service provider for the Commonwealth contract acting in its capacity as contracted service provider for that contract.
However, the above does not apply to the adoption by a prescribed organisation of a prescribed identifier in prescribed circumstances.
Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited will not use or disclose an identifier assigned to an individual by an agency, or by an agent or contracted service provider mentioned above, unless:
a) the use or disclosure is necessary for the organisation to fulfil its obligations to the agency; or
b) one or more of paragraphs under heading 2, numbers e) to h) (inclusive) apply to the use or disclosure; or
c) the use or disclosure is by a prescribed organisation of a prescribed identifier in prescribed circumstances.

In this clause: “identifier” includes a number assigned by an organisation to an individual to identify uniquely the individual for the purposes of the organisation’s operations. However, an individual’s telephone number or ABN is not an “identifier”.
9. Transborder data flows
Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited may transfer personal information about an individual to someone (other than to Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited or the individual) who is in a foreign country only if:

a) Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited reasonably believes that the recipient of the information is subject to a law, binding scheme or contract which effectively upholds principles for fair handling of the information that are substantially similar to the National Privacy Principles; or
b) the individual consents to the transfer; or
c) the transfer is necessary for the performance of a contract between the individual and Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited, or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures taken in response to the individual’s request; or

f) Hunter Taxi Radio Network Proprietary Limited has taken reasonable steps to ensure that the information which it has transferred will not be held, used or disclosed by the recipient of the information inconsistently with the National Privacy Principles.
