We are committed to protecting your privacy in all your dealings with us: when you contact us, visit our websites, respond to one of our surveys or promotions, subscribe to our websites, buy something from us or share your experiences with us.

We only collect personal information that is needed for or directly related to the functions and activities of the association.

  • We never share information about you with any other organisation beyond what is necessary to deliver the goods or services you have requested from us.
  • You are welcome to review the information we hold about you.
  • You have the right to opt out of individually addressed promotional mailings. We deal with complaints about privacy breaches promptly.

We only collect personal information about you if it is:

  • necessary to supply you with what you request or give you the access you need – for example, if you want to:
    • Join one of our regular groups or attend events;
    • Contribute to financially support the ministry of St Barnabas Church Broadway;
    • Attend worship with us regularly;

We will only collect information by lawful and fair means and we will take steps to ensure that the information we collect does not intrude to an unreasonable extent on your personal affairs.

        When we ask you for information, we will tell you:

  • who we are and how to contact us.
  • what information we need and why we’re collecting it.
  • how you can get access to the personal information you give us if you want to check or change it.
  • any law that requires us to collect it; and
  • the main consequences (if any) if all or part of the information is not provided.

We will usually collect personal information directly from you.

Sensitive information

Sensitive information is information that identifies an individual’s racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, membership of a political association, religious beliefs or affiliations, philosophical beliefs, membership of a professional or trade association, membership of a trade union, sexual preferences or practices, criminal record or health information.

St Barnabas Church Broadway does not collect sensitive information about you unless you specifically choose to volunteer it to us, for example in a letter to us about your experiences or concerns.

Anonymity

Wherever it is lawful and practicable we will give you the option of not identifying yourself when contacting or dealing with St Barnabas Church Broadway. So, for example, you can visit the free parts of our websites, respond to surveys, or ask us questions without identifying yourself. You can give anonymously to the ministry of St Barnabas Church Broadway. However, if you want to give a gift to St Barnabas School Building Fund, register for an event, or purchase goods and services from St Barnabas Church Broadway or ask a question about the personal information we hold about you, you will need to give us certain personal information.

Intrusion detection

For site security purposes and to ensure that this service remains available to all users, we employ systems to monitor traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change information, or otherwise cause damage. In the event of a police investigation, and pursuant to any required legal process, information from these systems may be used to help identify an individual.

Information you may choose to provide

If you take part in an online, mail or phone survey the information we collect is usually anonymous and is only used in aggregated form unless we specifically tell you otherwise at the time we collect it. You may always choose not to participate. All information gathered in this way is kept strictly confidential.

We may also collect general demographic data so we can check aggregated results against ABS statistics to ensure they’re representative, but the identification is no more specific than your postcode and is never used on an individual basis.

Where you give us information about your experiences with products or services this may be interesting to others when we publish articles on those topics. If we wish to use your experience and you’ve provided it to us in a private communication (letter, fax, email, phone call, survey) we will always ask your permission before we publish it. You always have the right to refuse or to request anonymity.

How your personal information is used and disclosed

We will not use or disclose or permit the use or disclosure of personal information that could be used to identify an individual except in the following circumstances:

When you register for an event or purchase something from us or respond to one of our promotions we will use the information you provide to deliver any information, goods and/or services you have requested.

  • tell you about related products or services that St Barnabas Church, Broadway provides. For example we may send you notices about upcoming events of the St Barnabas Church, Broadway.

We may use information about you that was collected by another organisation to send you promotional offers on St Barnabas Church, Broadway events and fund raising appeals.
