This Privacy Policy applies to the services offered on LynxPartner Online at www.lynxtech.com.au Web site operated by Lynx Technologies Pty Ltd (ABN 69 181 852 646). Please read this Privacy Policy carefully before using the Lynx Technologies Web site. Usage of the Web site is conditional upon you agreeing to be bound by this Privacy Policy.

Lynx Technologies recognises the importance of your privacy, and that you have a right to control how your personal information is collected and used. This Privacy Policy is intended to comply with the Privacy Act 1988.

Why do we collect information?
We will collect personal information in the process of conducting business. That personal information may be obtained directly from you, via another contact in your organisation or through a third party who we believe has informed you that your details may be provided to us. We will only store your personal details if they are relevant to your organisation conducting business with us. We do not normally obtain or store information that is deemed by the Privacy Act to be "Sensitive Information".

We store personal information to ensure that we can maintain contact with the organisations with which we do business. This contact may be verbal, electronic or written. The reason for the contact may be to inform, request assistance or to maintain a relationship.

Lynx Technologies will not collect any personal information about you without your consent. We only collect personal information that you tell us about yourself and information about how you use our Web site: eg by registering, when we ask for information such as your email address, name, address, company, account number and phone number. If you contact us, we may keep a record of that contact. Lynx Technologies also uses cookies to make your use of our Web site and services as convenient as possible. If you do not wish to receive any cookies you may set your browser to refuse cookies. This may mean you will not be able to use Lynx Technologies' online services.

Communicating with you
We may contact you at the email or other address which you provide to us in order to provide you with updated information about our Web site, contact you in relation to your account or an order which you have placed or provide you with other information about our products and services. If you do not wish to receive this, you may remove your name from our list by visiting our Web site and following the instructions, or e-mail us at privacy@lynxtech.com.au.

Using and disclosing your personal information
Lynx Technologies will not use or disclose any information, unless requested by the operator of your company account, as required by law or if we believe it necessary to provide you with a service you have requested. We may also do so to implement our terms of service, protect the rights, property or personal safety of another user, any member of the public or Lynx Technologies, or if our assets and operations are transferred to another party as a going concern. We may also send you information and product updates which you have requested. Therefore we may sometimes share your personal information with a service partner, subject to confidentiality provisions, but will not otherwise disclose it to other companies without your consent.

The information we keep about you
If at any time you want to know exactly what personal information we hold about you, you can access your record by contacting us at privacy@lynxtech.com.au. If your personal information is inaccurate or out of date, you can e-mail us at privacy@lynxtech.com.au and we will amend it. If you wish to have your personal information deleted, we will take all reasonable and legal steps to delete it.

Storage and security of your personal information
Lynx Technologies will endeavour to take all reasonable steps to keep secure any information which we hold about you, and to keep this information accurate and up to date. Lynx Technologies will not be held responsible for events arising from unauthorised access to your personal information. Lynx Technologies may use overseas facilities to process or back up its information and as a result, may transfer your personal information to our overseas facilities for storage. Please notify us immediately if there is any unauthorised use of your account by any other Internet user or any other breach of security. For the purposes of viewing our Web site you will have a user name and password. You are responsible for the security and confidentiality of your password and log-in information.

Future changes
