We understand that the privacy of your details, and the security of your transactions with us, is of paramount importance to you. Public Spectrum Channel has therefore adopted data protection policies concerning your privacy and security. Public Spectrum Privacy Policy sets out the rules we will abide by when dealing with personal information we collect from individuals in the course of our business. We have based our policy upon the Internet Industry of Australia’s (IIA) draft Privacy Code of Practice, which adopts internationally recognised Privacy protection standards (such as the ‘Safe Harbour’ principles required by most European countries). The IIA Code also covers the requirements of Australian Privacy legislation.
Should you wish to contact us concerning Privacy, please go to the contact page.
We may make alterations or additions to this policy from time to time. Should we do so, we will update the policy on our web site. We require that all our customers agree to abide by our Privacy policy as part of our terms of trade. This policy also applies to users of our web site who are not customers of Public Spectrum Channel.
Please note that we cannot and do not assume any responsibility for the privacy or security practices of any other web sites which you may be able to access through our website, or for our customers’ level of compliance with our code.
Public Spectrum Channel collects different information about you at different times. There are four broad categories of information that we collect from you:
We only use personal information for the purposes for which we collected it – purposes which are directly related to one of our events.
We do not give personal information about an individual to any government agencies, private sector organisations or anyone else unless one of the following applies:
You might provide personal information through your participation in chat sessions, message boards, email exchanges or newsgroups accessed via our web sites, or another service offered by Public Spectrum Channel. This information is public and immediately available to anyone who has access to such a website; it is not private. Public Spectrum Channel urges you to enter only information that you are comfortable to share with the public at large in this public domain. This Privacy Policy does not apply to such information.
You should never reveal your password to third parties. If you lose control of your password, you may lose control over your personal information and may be liable for actions taken on your behalf by third parties using your password or personal information. Therefore, if your password has been compromised for any reason, you should immediately change it.
If you collect personal information which you keep on servers provided by PSC as part of our service to you (including email), you alone are responsible for compliance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) in respect of that information. We take no responsibility for your dealings with personal information you collect.
From time to time, you may need to update your personal information. We keep this information in a secure environment which you can access through our website. To amend any of your personal information, you will be required to give your user name and password.
If you contact us via telephone, you will need to answer a few security questions before any personal information is revealed or amended.

Security of your Personal Information
Akolade has implemented security features in our database to protect your personal information from unauthorised access. We maintain our servers in a controlled, secure environment. Only staff who need to have access to your personal information to perform their job function are authorised to access the database. Constant changes to the Internet and technology mean that we cannot guarantee that data transmission will be 100% secure, or safe from attack by unauthorised intruders.
