The types of information we collect
In general, when you visit our website you do not have to tell us who you are, or reveal any personally identifiable information to us. Unless you specifically agree to tell us, we will never know who you are, and you are able to interact with our website in a completely anonymous way.

When you visit our website our servers automatically record basic information about your usage, such as the type of internet browser and operating system you are using, the date, time and duration of your visit and the pages you visit. This information is anonymous and does not identify you as an individual, nor will we combine it with information that does identify you as an individual.

This information is collected and analysed to provide us with a greater understanding of how you use our website.

We specifically use personally identifiable information to fulfil your requests for any specific information. We may also use personally identifiable information to perform other functions including, demographic analysis of site usage (who is visiting our website and what they are interested in), customising advertising and content seen by our users, and improving our marketing and promotional efforts.

We will not intentionally disclose any personally identifiable information and we do not sell, trade or rent such information to third parties (such as advertisers or telemarketers).

Any personally identifiable information you provide will only be provided to third parties if:

    • You consent to such a disclosure
    • We are compelled or authorised to do so by law
    • We reasonably believe there is a threat to someone's life or health
    • Our website or business is sold to, or merged with another entity

The quality and security of the information we hold
Any information you provide to us is stored and held under generally accepted standards of technology and operational security in order to protect your personally identifiable information from loss, misuse, alteration, or destruction. Only authorised personnel are provided access to personally identifiable information and these personnel are required to treat this information as confidential.

Despite these precautions, we cannot guarantee absolutely that any and all unauthorised access to your personally identifiable information will be prevented.

Your access to the information we hold
If you would like to access, correct, update or de-activate any information you have submitted, please send a request to sales@brougham.com.au

We will modify or de-activate any information that could be used to identify you as soon as practicable after your request, unless we are required or authorised by law not to do so.

Once de-activated your data will not be accessible, however, due to system backups, your data may in some circumstances remain in our system for a short period of time after the de-activation of your details.

Your participation on our website
By using our website, you consent to the collection, use, and storage of your information by us in the manner described in this Privacy Policy and elsewhere on our website. We reserve the right to make changes to our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will alert you to any such changes by updating the Privacy section of our website, and encourage you to check this page from time to time.

Links to other websites
Our website may include links to other third party websites outside our network. We have no control of these sites and do not accept any responsibility for their activities, and we advise you to examine the terms and conditions of using their websites before disclosing any information to them.

Our policy on children's privacy protection
We understand the importance of protecting the privacy of children, especially in an online environment. Our website is not intentionally designed for or directed at minors 18 years of age or younger, and we do not intentionally collect or maintain information about anyone under the age of 18.
