Privacy Statement

Pulse Australia has sought to adhere to the Privacy Act 1988 and to the Guidelines for Federal and ACT Government World Wide Websites published by the Privacy Commissioner, and provides the following privacy statements.

Collecting Personal Information and Data

Personal information and data that in some way identifies you, the user, is collected during interactions with Pulse Australia web site in the following circumstances:

1. Computer Information

When a user looks at Pulse Australia web site, our server makes a record of your visit in a log. It is a necessary part of visiting any web site that the user's web browser provides the machine's identity (its IP address) to the web server so that the server can address the reply to the correct machine. In addition, your browser provides the following type of information:

the user’s operating system;
the user’s server address;
the user’s top level domain name;
the date and time of the visit to the site;
the pages accessed and the documents downloaded;
the referring web site;
the type of browser used.

2. Navigation and ClickStream Data

Browsing any web site generates a trail of pages visited and the time spent displaying each page, which is useful in the continual evaluation of the site. Pulse Australia’s service provider monitors the use of the pages you visit for statistical purposes and to help Pulse Australia improve the web site.

3. Cookies

Cookies are records kept of use of web sites. They can be either session or persistent based. Session cookies are short-lived and used only during a browsing session and expire when you quit the browser. Persistent cookies are stored on your computer, contain an expiration date and may be used to track your browsing behaviour upon return to the issuing web site.

Pulse Australia web site does not employ cookies to track user behaviour and therefore does not keep a history of your activity on this site.

It does, however, use a cookie to authenticate members who are logging in to access the restricted areas of the site. A cookie is then used for security purposes only once the member has been logged in. No cookies are used throughout the unrestricted areas of the site.

Use of Personal Information

Pulse Australia will only use personal information you provide for the purpose for which it is provided e.g. mailing a requested publication to you.

If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we ask for contact information such as name and email address. Out of respect for our users’ privacy we provide a way to opt-out of these communications.

Security

Please note that the Internet and the World Wide Web are not secure modes of communication. Wherever it is lawful and practical to do so, Pulse Australia will give you the option to interact anonymously with us. If you do not wish to use the Internet you can contact us to answer your enquires by:
