This web site is owned and operated by All Things Indian and will be referred to as "We", "our" and
"us" in this Internet Privacy Policy. By using this site, you agree to
the Internet Privacy Policy of this web site ("the web site"), which is
set out on this web site page. The Internet Privacy Policy relates to
the collection and use of personal information you may supply to us
through your conduct on the web site.
We reserve the right, at our discretion, to modify or remove portions
of this Internet Privacy Policy at any time. This Internet Privacy
Policy is in addition to any other terms and conditions applicable to
the web site. We do not make any representations about third party web
sites that may be linked to the web site.
We recognise the importance of protecting the privacy
of information collected about visitors to our web site, in particular
information that is capable of identifying an individual ("personal
information"). This Internet Privacy Policy governs the manner in which
your personal information, obtained through the web site, will be dealt
with. This Internet Privacy Policy should be reviewed periodically so
that you are updated on any changes. We welcome your comments and
feedback.
Personal Information
Personal
information about visitors to our site is collected only when knowingly
and voluntarily submitted. For example, we may need to collect such
information to provide you with further services or to answer or
forward any requests or enquiries. It is our intention that this policy
will protect your personal information from being dealt with in any way
that is inconsistent with applicable privacy laws in Australia.
Use of Information
Personal
information that visitors submit to our site is used only for the
purpose for which it is submitted or for such other secondary purposes
that are related to the primary purpose, unless we disclose other uses
in this Internet Privacy Policy or at the time of collection. Copies of
correspondence sent from the web site, that may contain personal
information, are stored as archives for record-keeping and back-up
purposes only.
Disclosure
Apart from where
you have consented or disclosure is necessary to achieve the purpose
for which it was submitted, personal information may be disclosed in
special situations where we have reason to believe that doing so is
necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against anyone
damaging, injuring, or interfering (intentionally or unintentionally)
with our rights or property, users, or anyone else who could be harmed
by such activities. Also, we may disclose personal information when we
believe in good faith that the law requires disclosure.
We may engage third parties to provide you with goods
or services on our behalf. In that circumstance, we may disclose your
personal information to those third parties in order to meet your
request for goods or services.
Security
We strive to ensure
the security, integrity and privacy of personal information submitted
to our sites, and we review and update our security measures in light
of current technologies. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the
Internet can be guaranteed to be totally secure.
However, we will endeavour to take all reasonable
steps to protect the personal information you may transmit to us or
from our online products and services. Once we do receive your
transmission, we will also make our best efforts to ensure its security
on our systems.
In addition, our employees and the contractors who
provide services related to our information systems are obliged to
respect the confidentiality of any personal information held by us.
However, we will not be held responsible for events arising from
unauthorised access to your personal information.
Cookies
Cookies are data
that a Web site transfers to an individual's hard drive for
record-keeping purposes. Cookies, which are industry standard and are
used by most Web sites, including those operated by us, can facilitate
a user's ongoing access to and use of a site. They allow us to
customise the web site to your needs. If you do not want information
collected through the use of Cookies, there is a simple procedure in
most browsers that allows you to deny or accept the Cookie feature. But
you should note that Cookies may be necessary to provide you with some
features of our on-line services.
Access to Information
We
will endeavour to take all reasonable steps to keep secure any
information which we hold about you, and to keep this information
accurate and up to date. If, at any time, you discover that information
held about you is incorrect, you may contact us to have the information
corrected.
In addition, our employees and the contractors who
provide services related to our information systems are obliged to
respect the confidentiality of any personal information held by us.

other website, we advise you to examine the terms and conditions of
using that Web site and its privacy statement.
