We comply with the National Privacy Principals (NPPs) as implemented under the Privacy Amendment (Private Sector) Act 2000 ('Privacy Act'), which came into effect on 21 December 2001. The Privacy Act established a national scheme for the handling of personal information by private sector organisations. The NPPs are the minimum privacy standards.

This Privacy Policy outlines how Petite Portions safeguards the privacy of your personal information in compliance with the privacy laws.

Acts and practices of ours which are directly related to the employee records of our current and former employees are exempt from the coverage of the NPPs and this Privacy Policy does not apply to them.

The type of personal information which we collect depends on the nature of your dealings with us. The personal information we collect from you usually includes your name, title, address and contact numbers.

Use and Disclosure of your Personal Information

Petite Portions endeavours to use and disclose personal information about you only for the primary purpose for which we have collected it. The primary purpose of collection may relate to the provision of our services considering your application for employment with us; obtaining services from you; or marketing our services to you.

Sometimes it may be necessary to use or disclose your personal information for a secondary purpose, which is related to the primary purpose of collection, such as generating bills and reminder notices or providing our newsletter to you.
