This policy was last reviewed and updated on 21 December 2022.

Knight Shutters & Improvements values and respects the privacy of the people we deal with. Knight Shutters & Improvements is committed to protecting your privacy and complying with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Privacy Act) and other applicable privacy laws and regulations. This Privacy Policy (Policy) describes how we collect, hold, use, and disclose your personal information and how we maintain the quality and security of your personal information.

What is personal information?

“Personal information” means any information or opinion, whether true or not and whether recorded in a material form or not, about an identified individual or an individual who is reasonably identifiable. In general terms, this includes information or an opinion that personally identifies you either directly (e.g., your name) or indirectly.

The personal information we collect about you depends on the nature of your dealings with us or what you choose to share with us.
The personal information we collect about you may include:
● Name
● Mailing or street address
● Date of birth
● Email address
● Phone number

You do not have to provide us with your personal information. Where possible, we will give you the option to interact with us anonymously or by using a pseudonym. However, if you choose to deal with us in this way or choose not to provide us with your personal information, we may not be able to provide you with our services or otherwise interact with you.

We collect your personal information directly from you when you:
● Interact with us over the phone.
● Interact with us in person.
● Interact with us online.
● Participate in surveys or questionnaires.
● Attend a Knight Shutters & Improvements event.
● Subscribe to our mailing list.
● Apply for a position with us as an employee, contractor, or volunteer.

We may also collect your personal information from third parties or through publicly available sources, for example, from friends/family or someone known to you who refers you to us. We collect your personal information from these third parties so that we may contact you to offer the service that you may have shown interest in or for your family/friend to refer us to you.

We use personal information for many purposes in connection with our functions and activities, including the following purposes:
● Provide you with information or services that you request from us.
● Deliver to you a more personalised experience and service offering.
● Improve the quality of the services we offer.
● Internal administrative purposes.
● Marketing and research purposes.

We may disclose your personal information to third parties in accordance with this policy in circumstances where you would reasonably expect us to disclose your information. For example, we may disclose your personal information to:
● Our third-party service providers (for example, our IT providers).
● Our marketing providers.
● Our professional services advisors.

Some of the third-party service providers we disclose personal information to may be based in or have servers located outside of Australia, including in the USA, UK, India, etc.

Where we disclose your personal information to third parties overseas, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that data security and appropriate privacy practices are maintained. We will only disclose to overseas third parties if:

  • You have given us your consent to disclose personal information to that third party, or

  • We reasonably believe that

  • The overseas recipient is subject to a law or binding scheme that is, overall, substantially similar to the APPs and

  • The law or binding scheme can be enforced or

  • The disclosure is required or authorised by an Australian law or court/tribunal order.

Knight Shutters & Improvements will take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information that we hold about you is kept confidential and secure, including by:
● Having robust physical security of our premises and databases/records
● Taking measures to restrict access to only personnel who need that personal information
to effectively provide services to you
● Having technological measures in place (for example, antivirus software, firewalls)
