Can Too Privacy Policy

The Can Too Foundation Privacy Policy

Introduction

The Can Too Foundation ABN 53 169 310 696 (Can Too) is committed to safeguarding personal privacy. It recognises that individuals have a right to control how their personal information is collected and used. 

Personal information is information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable, whether the information or opinion is true or not and whether the information or opinion is recorded in a material form or not. 

Personal information that is collected by Can Too can include your name, address, email address, phone number and/or health conditions. 

Providing personal information is an act of trust and it is taken seriously. Unless given consent to do otherwise, Can Too will only collect and use personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and other applicable privacy laws.

Your use of our website, registration into our programs or purchase of our products signifies implied agreement to this Privacy Policy.

We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time.  Visitors to this website are responsible for consulting this page on a regular basis to inform themselves of any amendments that may have been made.  The amended Privacy Policy will apply between us whether or not we have given you specific notice of any change.

Collecting Personal Information

Personal information may be collected through our website (e.g. through online forms), telephone enquiries, when you register for a program or when you contact us for information. 

Can Too will not collect or monitor any personal information about you without your consent. The only personal information we collect is what has been provided to us voluntarily. You are entirely free to decide not to provide your personal information to us.  However, in some circumstances, this may limit the services that Can Too is able to provide to you. 

When a person registers with Can Too for a program or when a product is purchased online (or over the telephone etc.), personal information may be requested (such as name and address). The personal information collected may vary depending on your particular interaction with Can Too but will be limited to the information necessary to record and manage our interaction with you or as permitted or required by law.

Our policy for collecting personal information from children 15 years or younger is to seek the permission of a parent or guardian for the collection of this information.

Cookies allow Can Too to record how many people are using different parts of the website. It is possible to set the browser to refuse Cookies, however this may limit the services provided by the Can Too website.
