Collection of Personal Information

Personal information is information which an individual's identity may be ascertained. The nature of such personal information generally comprises an individual's name and contact details (including address, phone, fax and e-mail). These personal information is collected for the purposes of arranging, conducting and promoting MarkSoc's production.

MarkSoc does not collect personal information unless it is necessary for the society to perform one or more of its functions and activities. On occasion, some of this personal information may be sensitive and MarkSoc will only collect it with your consent or when required to by law.

MarkSoc will generally collect personal information from you directly. For example, MarkSoc may collect personal information via telephone or letter, or when you attend a function, event or enter a competition.

Use & Disclosure of Personal Information

MarkSoc will only use and disclose your personal information for the purpose for which the personal information was initially collected. MarkSoc may also use that personal information for a purpose related to the initial purpose of collection if that other purpose would be within your reasonable expectations.

Personal information provided to MarkSoc may be shared with the University of New South Wales, where it will be kept strictly confidential and will only be disclosed on a need to know basis. On any other case, MarkSoc will not use or disclose your personal information for any other purposes without first obtaining your express or implied consent.
