Canberra Dramatics respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy applies to our web site, www.canberradramatics.org.au (herein known as the “Canberra Dramatics Site” or “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through the Site, how we use that information, and what choices you have.    
   
The Canberra Dramatics Site contains links to other web sites. This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of any companies or individuals that Canberra Dramatics does not control, or any web sites that you link to from the Canberra Dramatics Site. You should use caution and review the privacy policies of any sites that you visit from ours to learn more about their information practices.    
   
Please take a few moments to read this agreement. By accessing the Canberra Dramatics Site, you agree to accept the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy and are aware that our policies may evolve in the future as indicated below.    
   

What we collect:

   
In various places on the Canberra Dramatics Site, we collect "Personally Identifiable Information", such as your name, age, sex, postal address, telephone number, e-mail address, or other information that can be used to contact you or identify you as an individual. For example, we collect this information when you register for membership, audition or apply for a role in a production, sign up for e-mail newsletters and purchase products or services. From time to time in the future we may offer additional features, services, and promotional opportunities that would require you to submit Personally Identifiable Information to participate.    
   
We also collect “Anonymous Information” such as your IP address, the type of browser you use, the pages on our Site that you have visited, and the advertisements that you have clicked on. Your Personally Identifiable Information is linked to your Anonymous Information.    
   
Like many Internet sites, we also use “cookies” to collect information. A cookie is a small data file that we transfer to your computer and is stored on your hard drive. When you visit our Site(s) the cookie identifies your computer to us so that you do not have to re-register each time you visit. We may also use cookies to measure the traffic to our Site and the use of different services and features of the Site.    
   
We do not intend that minors will use our sites. We do not accept registrations from persons under the age of 13, neither do we solicit or knowingly collect information from persons younger than 13.    
   

How we use the information we collect:

   
We use Personally Identifiable Information that you provide to communicate with you, to process orders for products and services, to customise advertising and content available on the Canberra Dramatics Site, to conduct research for internal purposes and to use such information to improve our services and the Canberra Dramatics Site.    
   
If you so choose, we will also use it to send you information about products, events and services that may be of interest to you.    
   
We use information that is not personally identifiable to determine how people use our web site and its services. For example this data tells us information including how often users click on our advertisements, which files are downloaded most frequently, and which areas of our site are the most popular. Analysing this data helps us to improve the functionality of our site.    
   

How we share information:

   
Except as noted below, Canberra Dramatics does not share your Personally Identifiable Information with other organisations except in the following circumstances:    
-you give us your permission to share your information    
-we need to share your information in order to provide products or services you have requested    
-we are ordered by a state authority to provide your information for legal purposes    
When we supply personally identifiable information to any other organisation as outlined above, we require them to use it exclusively for the explicit purpose for which it was provided.    
   
We will disclose Personally Identifiable Information when required by law or under the good-faith belief that such disclosure is necessary in order to conform to applicable law, comply with subpoenas, court orders or legal process served on Canberra Dramatics, to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims, and to protect the property or interests of Canberra Dramatics, its agents and employees, personal safety, or the public. Under such circumstances, Canberra Dramatics may be prohibited by law, court order or other legal process from providing notice of the disclosure, and Canberra Dramatics reserves the right to not provide such notice in its sole discretion.    
   
When you see parts of our site with a prominent brand or name of another organisation, information you supply (or authorise for use) in that part of the site will be shared with the other company that is cooperating in providing the service. Please visit that company’s site to learn more about their information practices.    
   

What choices you have:

   
When you register for membership on the Canberra Dramatics Site, you have the option of ticking a box to tell us that you do not want us to send you our email newsletter. You may also opt out of an automatic logging process that associates your Personally Identifiable Information with your recent page views. We will keep track of your decisions in our database.    
   
Even if you choose not to receive information from us, we reserve the right to communicate with you on matters we consider especially important.    
   

Making changes:

   
You may review the Personally Identifiable Information we have on file by logging in and clicking the Profile and Settings tabs on your user page. Once there, there you may modify information that is incorrect and delete certain information from your profile. You can also change your permission for us to send you e-mail newsletters.    
   
To delete your Personally Identifiable Information, you must manually change your data fields to null values. Otherwise, your data is retained indefinitely. Please note that the public comments made by a user in a chat room or a forum cannot be deleted by the user. Moreover, since Anonymous Information is not identifiable as originating with you, it cannot be reviewed or changed by you.    
   
We may change this policy from time to time. While we will usually indicate major changes by notice on our site, please check this page periodically to see if there is a revised policy posted.

Updates:

   
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as our services change and expand. If we update this Privacy Policy, we will notify you about significant changes by sending a notice to the email address specified in your account or by posting a notice of such changes on the Canberra Dramatics Site. Unless otherwise provided, the revised terms will take effect on the date they are posted.
