Name and Address
The site includes forms where name and address is requested. In these cases personal details are required to enable subsequent contact with you and/or to enable authentication of the information provided.

We will not collect or solicit personal information via this site which would be unlawful, unnecessary or unrelated to the functions or activities of CAFHNA NSW Inc. or unfair or unreasonably intrusive.

Because there are risks associated with using the Internet as a transmission medium, when we use electronic forms to collect information we will also provide you with other options for providing the information - for example, a paper form and mailing address and a telephone contact.

We will not sell, rent, trade or otherwise disclose personally identifying information you provide us to anyone outside of CAFHNA NSW Inc. except for the purpose for which the information is gathered or if required by law.

We provide a secure environment and a reliable system but you should be aware there are inherent risks associated with the transmission of information via the Internet. For those who do not wish to use the Internet, CAFHNA provides alternative ways of obtaining and providing information.

Keeping your Personal Information up-to-date
If we have accurate personal information about you, it enables us to provide you with the best possible service. We take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is accurate, complete and up-to-date whenever we collect or use it. If you find that current personal information we hold about you is inaccurate, incomplete or out-of-date, please contact us immediately and we will correct it.
