SWC and your privacy
At Small World Concept, we respect your right to privacy and we understand that, as a visitor to DoAUSTRALIA.com, you prefer to control your own personal information and preferences. For this reason, we want to present information on DoAUSTRALIA.com that is tailored to your own information preferences. Also for this reason, we may ask you, on occasion, to register or to provide personal information and preferences when you visit certain areas of DoAUSTRALIA.com, request new information, or subscribe to a newsletter.
We will use the personal information you share with us to ensure the content, services, and advertising that we provide on DoAUSTRALIA.com (and related SWC owned sites) are always tailored to your current, designated preferences.
If, for example, you provide SWC with your name or alias, mailing address, or telephone number, SWC and its partners may use your postal address and phone number to alert you to web updates, special offers, updated information, classes, and new services. If you provide your e-mail address (as an alternative to, or in addition to, your mailing address and phone number), SWC may contact you via e-mail. Unlike postal addresses and phone numbers, SWC never releases e-mail addresses to its partners.
If you do not want SWC, our partners, or selected third parties to contact you, you may "opt out" of this preference at any time, whether you're online or contacting SWC directly. As part of your preference flexibility, you'll always have the option to "opt [back] in" and have SWC contact you based on your previous or new preferences.
If you choose not to register or provide personal information, you can still visit most of SWC's Web sites; however, you will not have access to areas that require personal identification.
SWC membership and the usage of automatically logged information
SWC offers free membership to all DoAUSTRALIA.com visitors. In order to establish membership, visitors are requested to provide both personal information and preferences. This information is stored and protected by your user-established Member ID and Password.
Acceptance of this option allows SWC to place a log file (cookie) that contains only enough information to identify you upon return visits, thereby eliminating the need to continually ask you for the same generic information. This cookie contains no personal information, with the exception of your name or alias that you previously provided.
No information, other than that found in the log file, will be accessed by any SWC system. Access to all user-provided information always requires both your established Member ID and Password.
How SWC will protect your personal information
SWC will always protect the personal information that you share with us. SWC stores information internally in a controlled, secure environment. If, for example, you make a purchase online, we route all transactions through SSL (Secure Socket Layers) and will process your credit card number only to secure your current payment. The SSL transaction does not retain your credit card number subsequent to the transaction at hand and will not use the number for marketing purposes.
If SWC requests general demographic information (such as your county, district, education, etc.), information shared with third parties is absolutely limited to reporting purposes only. No phone numbers, e-mail or postal addresses are shared with any entities for demographic reports.
SWC may occasionally present a special contest or promotion that is sponsored by another company. To qualify for entry, we may ask you to provide personal information. If we plan to share that information with the sponsor(s), we will provide an up-front statement to that effect.
Contact us/How to update your personal information and preferences
You can help SWC maintain the accuracy of your personal information by notifying us when you change your name, address, title, phone number, e-mail address, or your respective content preferences. If at any time you wish to update your information or preferences, or you prefer to stop receiving communication from SWC or our partners, feel free to contact us at any time. SWC contacts include:
