The Grainger Wind Symphony Inc. Privacy Policy

The Grainger Wind Symphony Inc. is bound to comply with the Information Privacy Principles contained in the Victorian Information Privacy Act 2000 ("Privacy Act") from 1 September 2002.

We may collect information (like their e-mail addresses, IP addresses, names, instruments played, phone numbers, etc.) either directly (for example, with forms) or indirectly (for example, with web server logs.) Unless you object, this information may be used:

• to send news, information about our activities and general promotional material which we believe may be useful to you;
• to monitor who is accessing the web site or using services offered on the web site;
• to profile the type of people accessing the web site; and
• within the group to contact fellow musicians.

If you do not wish to have your personal information used in this manner or for any other specific purpose, you can e-mail us accordingly.

We utilise "cookies" on our web site which enable us to monitor traffic patterns and to serve you more efficiently if you revisit the site. A cookie does not identify you personally but it does identify your computer. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie and this will provide you with an opportunity to either accept or reject it in each instance. Some portions require the use of cookies to assist your navigation.

We will not sell or otherwise provide your personal information to a third party, or make any other use of your personal information without your consent. For the removal of doubt, personal information will not be used for any purpose which a reasonable person in your position would not expect. Players within the group are not deemed as third parties.

If you request us not to use personal information in a particular manner or at all, we will adopt all reasonable measures to observe your request but we may still use or disclose that information if:

• we subsequently notify you of the intended use or disclosure and you do not object to that use or disclosure;
• we believe that the use or disclosure is reasonably necessary to assist a law enforcement agency or an agency responsible for government or public security in the performance of their functions; or
• we are required by law to disclose the information.
• We will preserve the content of any e-mail you send us if we believe we have the legal requirement to do so.

Your e-mail message content may be monitored by us for trouble-shooting or maintenance purposes or if any form of e-mail abuse is suspected.

We reserve the right to block certain IP addresses, email addresses etc. from accessing our networks.

Personal information which we collect may be aggregated for analysis but in such circumstances we would ensure that individuals would remain anonymous.

All personal information which we collect (including your contact details) is kept confidential to the best of our ability. You will appreciate, however, that we cannot guarantee the security of transmission.

We reserve the right to take and use individual and group photographs at public and private events. These may be used for marketing, publicity, or other forms of communications.

We consider it is the responsibility of parents to monitor their children's use of our web site. Nevertheless it is our policy not to require personal information from persons known to be under the age of 18 years or offer to send any promotional material to persons in that category.

You are entitled to have access to any personal information relating to you which you have previously supplied to us over the this web site. You are entitled to edit or delete such information unless we are required by law to retain it.

We do not control the material delivered to Bulletin Boards, and we have no obligation to monitor them. The messages do not necessarily reflect our views. In no event shall we assume or have any responsibility or liability for any materials posted on Bulletin Boards or for any claims, damages or losses resulting from their use and/or appearance on this Web Site. We reserve the right to edit, refuse to post or to remove any information or materials, in whole or in part, that in our sole discretion are objectionable.
