Privacy Policy

We respect your privacy

Arrow Print (Arrow) is committed to the protection of your personal privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines how Arrow handles your personal information and safeguards your individual privacy. Arrow abides by the Australian Privacy Principles (APP) as set out in Schedule 1 to the Privacy Act 1988 and the SPAM ACT 2003. You can obtain a copy of the APP from the Office of Australian Information Commissioner’s web site at oaic.gov.au and a copy of the SPAM ACT from the Australian Communications & Media Authority web site at acma.gov.au.

Kind of information we hold about you

Personal information collected by Arrow generally consists of your name, address, contact details (including telephone numbers, e-Mail address), your gender, your date of birth, your employment details (including your company, job title, industry you work in, products/services you sell, other contacts within your organisation), your interests, our communication history and preferences in terms of how you wish to receive information from Arrow.

This information is collected for the purposes of sending relevant correspondences to you and building long-term client-agency relationships.

Arrow may collect your personal information when you make an inquiry about our services. Arrow may also collect personal information about you from a third party for the purpose of offering our services to you and your organisation.

Arrow also collects information on web site activity to enhance your usage and continually improve our site. This includes information such as the number of users who visit the web site, the date and time of visits, the number of pages viewed, navigation patterns, what country and what systems have used the site and, when entering the Arrow web site from another web site, the address of that web site. “Cookies” are commonly used by web sites on the Internet to achieve these objectives. They are usually placed on your hard drive to recognise and identify your computer. The cookie does not contain any information that personally identifies you and we do not use cookies in order to obtain such information. Your browser should allow you to refuse cookies if you so desire.

This information on its own does not identify an individual but it does provide Arrow with statistics that it can use to analyse and improve our web site and our communications. Arrow makes all reasonable efforts to give notice via e-Mail to parents of children under the age of 13 when information (e.g. e-Mail addresses or any other information) is collected from their child. Before entering a contest/competition/promotion online, Arrow requires children under the age of 13 to ask a parent for permission.

Children under 13 years of age are required to enter a parent’s e-Mail address as well. This is done so that Arrow may contact a parent via e-Mail to notify him/her that the child has entered a contest/ competition/promotion and to provide the option of removing the child’s e-Mail address from the list of entries. Arrow will not use a parent’s e-mail address for any other purpose.

Arrow Print does not collect information about your political beliefs, your religious beliefs, health information or sexual preferences.

Handling of our clients’ databases

As a database marketing company, Arrow will be engaged by its clients to perform various services that might involve the handling of personal information. Arrow will seek from its clients assurances that all such personal information has been collected lawfully and in compliance with the National Privacy Principles and that all required consents have been obtained for the intended use of that personal information.

Use and disclosure of your personal information

Arrow undertakes not to sell, rent or trade your personal information. Arrow Print will not disclose personal information about you, unless the disclosure is:

  • required by law
  • is authorised by law, or
  • you have consented to our disclosing of the information.

Your personal information is collected for the purposes of sending relevant correspondences to you and building long-term client-agency relationships.

We also require our staff and service providers to respect the confidentiality of your personal information.

Due to the nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that your personal information will always be secured during transmission or from unauthorised access during storage. However Arrow will always endeavour to protect your personal information from misuse, loss or unauthorised access, and once we receive your transmission, we will undertake our best effort to ensure its security.

  • the request for access is frivolous or vexatious
