Privacy Policy

Here at Healthy Ltd we understand that privacy and how we collect, use, disclose and protect your information is important to you. We are committed to ensuring the privacy of your information and to complying with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), which are contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Privacy Act). We use the term “personal information” in this Policy to mean information or an opinion (whether true or not) about an identified, or reasonably identifiable, individual.

1. WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?

The types of personal information which we collect will depend on the nature of your dealings with us. We may collect personal information from you when you:

• have business dealings with us, including as a client, supplier, contractor or advisor (or a potential client, supplier, contractor or advisor);
• register for a website or app hosted or developed by us, including a website or app we have developed behalf of a third party or client; or
• apply or register your interest for employment with us.

The personal information we will collect from you will usually include your name, title, address and e-mail address and contact numbers (telephone, mobile). If necessary for the purposes of providing services to you or for providing you with other information relating to our business, we may collect other personal information from you. However, we do not collect personal information that we do not need. While we seek to minimise the personal information we collect, if you do not provide us with the personal information we request, we may not be able to provide you with the services and other assistance you seek. Generally, we endeavour to collect personal information directly from the individuals concerned. However, if this is not practicable, we may collect personal information about individuals from third parties, including from publicly available sources. If we do, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that the individuals concerned are made aware of the collection of their information.

If you are a business contact (e.g. a contact person in one of our suppliers, or in a government agency or company with which we deal), we may collect standard information from you (e.g. your name, title and work contact details). We will not ask to collect sensitive information about you (such as details of your racial or ethnic origin, political affiliation, religious beliefs, sexual preferences, criminal convictions or health information).

2. HOW DO WE USE PERSONAL INFORMATION?

Our policy is only to use personal information collected from business contacts for the business purpose for which it was collected. We need to collect personal information so that we can provide our products and services, and conduct our business. We also collect personal information so that we can let you know about new ideas, initiatives or areas which may be of interest to you. If, at any time, you do not wish to receive these kinds of communications, please let us know.

3. WILL YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION BE GIVEN TO ANYONE ELSE?

We do not sell, rent or trade personal information about you to or with third parties. However, we may share your personal information with our related companies if this is required to provide you with a services or information which you have requested. Healthy may disclose personal information to external service providers who help us operate our business. Examples of our external service providers include third party data storage providers, organisations or consultants who provide production or promotional services on our behalf or on behalf of our clients, and research organisations and consultants who conduct research on our behalf. If we engage external service providers, we take steps to ensure that those external service providers:

• comply with the APPs when they handle personal information
• are authorised only to use personal information for the limited purposes specified in our agreement with them Where we engage external

information technology service providers, we ensure that wherever possible, our data is stored within Australia. Some of our vendors do however store data in overseas locations, including but not limited to the USA and Germany. Otherwise, we will only disclose personal information if this is required by law or permitted under the Privacy Act.

8. HOW DO WE HANDLE THE PERSONAL INFORMATION OF JOB APPLICANTS?

Healthy collects personal information about and from individuals who apply for employment with us. The information we collect includes the applicant’s:

• personal contact details (including phone, email and home address) and gender;
• educational and employment history,
• relevant qualifications and experience including information which they provide regarding clients with whom they’ve worked in the past;
• eligibility to work in Australia; and
• referees’ contact details.

In relation to job applicants, we may collect this information directly from the job applicant or indirectly from a third party, including from a recruitment agency. If necessary, we will also collect information about applicants from referees and from professional social networking sites like LinkedIn. If the applicant proceeds to the interview stage, we will collect information about the applicant’s performance during interview.

Healthy uses the personal information we collect about job applicants to assess their eligibility and suitability for employment with the firm. The personal information we collected about contractors or suppliers is used by Healthy to assess their suitability to work with us and/or our clients. Generally, our assessment of applicants’ or suppliers’ personal information will relate to a particular role or project. However, we may also retain and use applicants’ and suppliers’ personal information to assess their suitability for other roles with Healthy or other projects. In some cases our clients will request personal information regarding suppliers or job applicants who are being hired for a particular client project. However, we do not disclose the personal information we collect from applicants or suppliers to any other person or entity outside of our related group of companies, without their consent.
