489 912 318) (AFL) and each of the 18 AFL Clubs listed in paragraph 13 of this Privacy Policy (AFL Clubs). This Privacy Policy provides information about the personal information that the AFL and AFL Clubs collect and the ways in which the AFL and AFL Clubs may use, hold and disclose this personal information.</p> <p>The AFL may disclose your personal information to AFL Clubs, and AFL Clubs may disclose your personal information to the AFL. Each organisation will collect and use your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.</p> <p>When used in this document, depending on the context, "we," "our" and "us" refers to AFL and/or the AFL Clubs.</p> <p><strong>2 AFL and AFL Clubs Privacy Policy</strong></p> <p>Protecting personal information is fundamental to the AFL’s and AFL Clubs’ relationship with our supporters, employees, players and business partners. All personal information received in connection with an AFL or AFL Club product or service, or in the conduct of the AFL’s or AFL Clubs’ business, is therefore treated seriously, having regard to the AFL’s and the AFL Clubs’ legal obligations.</p> <p>Personal information is information that identifies you or could identify you. The AFL and AFL Clubs are subject to the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), including the Australian Privacy Principles.</p> <p><strong>3 Information Collected</strong></p> <p>Generally, the AFL and the AFL Clubs collect personal information directly from you via your use of the products and services on offer, use of AFL Online (defined in paragraph 9 of this Privacy Policy below), if you apply for a position with the AFL or any AFL Club and any registration you make to participate with or receive information from, the AFL or your AFL Club and any business relationship between you and us, including via email. The personal information which the AFL and AFL Clubs may collect and hold includes:</p> <ul> <li>your name, age, billing and/or shipping address, email address, gender, occupation, telephone number(s) and your AFL Club support;</li> <li>information about dealings with the AFL and AFL Clubs, including membership history, and subscriptions for AFL services;</li> <li>your AFL game attendance history where you purchase a ticket or use your AFL or AFL Club membership to obtain entry into a venue; and</li> <li>opinions and beliefs provided via surveys and questionnaires.</li> </ul> <p>In addition, you may also provide to us and we may collect and hold additional personal information, such as:</p> <ul> <li>your credit card information; and</li> <li>details of the items ordered or purchased from us.</li> </ul> <p>We also may collect additional non-personally identifiable information (for example, browser version, IP address), including that will provide information regarding the general use of AFL Online.</p> <p>By providing us with personal information, you consent to that information being collected, used, disclosed and stored in accordance with this Privacy Policy.</p> <p>If you do not give personal information to us, it may affect our ability to provide you with products and/or services.</p> <p>We may also collect information about you which is considered sensitive under applicable privacy and data protection laws. Generally, we will ask for your consent to handle your health or other sensitive information or, in certain circumstances, you will consent to our collection by providing your health or other sensitive information to us. </p> <p>Where we engage with you multiple times over a short period in relation to the same matter, we may not provide you with a separate notice about privacy each time we engage with you however we will provide you with an opportunity to opt–out of receiving communications about that matter within each of those communications.</p> <p><strong>4 Opt-Out/Unsubscribe</strong></p> <p>You can easily unsubscribe at any time you want to our communications by contacting us using the contact details specified in paragraph 12 of this Privacy Policy or by following the instructions contained in an e-mail.</p> <p>It may take some time to put an opt-out or an unsubscribe in effect so you may still receive communications from us for several weeks after your request is received.</p> <p>For the avoidance of doubt, by opting–out or unsubscribing yourself from a mailing list of an AFL or AFL Club product or service this will ensure your removal from that particular mailing list but will not guarantee your removal from other mailing lists that the AFL or an AFL Club may store your details in as a result of your engagement with a different service or product.</p> <p><strong>5 Information from Third Parties</strong></p> <p>During the course of business, the AFL and AFL Clubs may also collect personal information that is given to them by a third party (for example, a corporate partner of the AFL or AFL Clubs or information that is on a publicly maintained record). This information forms part of the personal information described in this Privacy Policy. The AFL and AFL Clubs will not intentionally solicit personal information that is unintentionally disclosed.</p> <p>We may also receive information about you from third parties in relation to other websites. For example, you may choose to participate in a third party application or feature as part of our services (such as logging in through Facebook Connect or Google+ or otherwise linking to the services from another website or interactive service) or on a third party website or service (such as a Facebook application or a similar application or feature) through which you allow us to collect (or the third party to share) information about you, including personal information. When you choose to participate, you may be opting to link your activity on AFL Online services with that third party website or service, which may then collect information about your visits to AFL Online and may publish that activity as you request to your "profile" or similar feature with that third party (such as if you choose to share content you find on AFL Online with your "connections" on the third party's website or service).</p> <p>The information we collect is subject to this Privacy Policy. However, the information collected and stored by the third party remains subject to the third party's privacy practices, including whether the third party continues to share information with us or with other third parties, the types of information shared, and your choices with regard to what is visible to others on that third party's website or service. The third party may allow you to remove the application or feature, in which case we will no longer collect information about you through the application or feature, but we may retain the information previously collected. In addition, we may receive information about you if other users of a third party website or service give us access to their profiles and you are one of their "connections" or information about you is otherwise accessible through your "connections'" web page, profile page, or similar page on a social networking or other third party website or interactive service.</p> <p><strong>6 Public Forums, Refer a Friend, and Customer Testimonials</strong></p> <p>The AFL and AFL Clubs may provide bulletin boards, blogs, or chat rooms on AFL Online or mobile applications. Any personal information you choose to submit in such a forum may be read, collected, or used by others who visit these forums, and may be used to send you unsolicited messages. The AFL and AFL Clubs are not responsible for the personal information you choose to submit in these forums.</p> <p><strong>7 Storage of Personal Information</strong></p> <p>Wherever reasonably practicable, the AFL and AFL Clubs will store personal information on data servers that are owned and controlled by the AFL and AFL Clubs and are located within the geographical borders of Australia. However, some of your personal information may be transferred, stored, processed, used or disclosed overseas by the AFL or AFL Clubs, or by the AFL's or AFL Clubs' third party service providers. In particular, at the date this Privacy Policy was most recently updated, your personal information may be disclosed to recipients in the USA, United Kingdom, Gibraltar, and other countries from time to time. </p> <p>This may happen if our service providers are located overseas, or if transactions, information, services or products have an overseas connection. Where such parties are located overseas, you may have rights to enforce such parties' compliance with applicable data protection laws, but you may not have recourse against those parties under the Australian Privacy Act <em>(Cth)</em> 1988 in relation to how those parties treat your personal information. </p> <p>You agree to the disclosure and use of such personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy, and consent to its disclosure overseas and its use by third parties, including our service providers, in the USA, Gibraltar, China and such other countries in which those parties or their computer systems may be located from time to time, where it may be used solely for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, without us being responsible for such use (or for any breach). Where the AFL and AFL Clubs use cloud computing services we will use our reasonable endeavours to ensure that such disclosures are in compliance with Australian privacy laws.</p> <p><strong>8 Use and Disclosure of Personal Information</strong></p> <p>The AFL and AFL Clubs collect, hold, use and disclose your personal information for purposes including, without limitation:</p> <ul> <li>to verify your identity;</li> <li>to improve AFL Online;</li> <li>to facilitate community competitions and programs;</li> <li>to provide, and to assist us with providing products and services to you, to manage and account for the products and services, and to improve the products and services;</li> <li>to manage AFL and AFL Club’s relationship(s) with you;</li> <li>to provide you with information about events, products and/or services that may interest you;</li> <li>to facilitate the internal business operations of the AFL and the AFL Clubs;</li> <li>to promote and market AFL events, products or services;</li> <li>to undertake research;</li> <li>to enable corporate partners and sponsors of the AFL, including AFL Clubs and the AFL’s digital rights partner Telstra, as well as their related bodies corporate, to market and promote their products and services to you;</li> <li>to provide to our third party service providers in connection with any of the above;</li> <li>to identify risk and implement appropriate controls to prevent or manage public health responses to pandemics or similar occurrences, including by providing personal information to relevant Government and health authorities, upon request, to assist with contact tracing and take reasonable precautions to ensure the health and safety of our employees, contractors, and others, and the security of our sites; and</li> <li>our sites and events.</li> </ul> <p>The AFL and AFL Clubs may also disclose personal information where it is otherwise permitted to do so by law.</p> <p>Where you provide your personal information directly to one AFL Club, although it may be disclosed to the AFL, that personal information will not ordinarily be shared with a different AFL Club. However, there may be some circumstances where this personal information is shared between AFL Clubs. For example, if in a transaction you purchase merchandise relating to two AFL Clubs, that transaction may be disclosed to both AFL Clubs.</p> <p>You consent to the AFL and AFL Clubs using your personal information for sending you information, including promotional material, about the AFL or AFL Clubs, or the AFL or AFL Clubs' products and services, as well as the products and services of selected third parties, now and in the future. You also consent to us contacting you with such information by means of direct mail, email, SMS, MMS messages, social media and via telephone. </p> <p><strong><em>Sharing Information With Third Parties</em></strong></p> <p>We engage third parties to perform services in connection with the operation of our business. Examples of these services include payment processing and authorisation, fraud protection and credit risk reduction, product customisation, order fulfilment and shipping, marketing and promotional material distribution, website evaluation, data analysis and, where applicable, data cleansing.</p> <p>We may need to share personal information with these third parties so that they can perform these services, however, we limit the personal information that we give to them and authorise them to use this information only for the purpose of performing those services.</p> <p>We may share aggregated demographic information about our user base with our agents, including agencies or third party vendors so that they can provide marketing analysis and consult on advertising strategies. This information does not identify individual users. We also may share non-personal information, such as the number of users who visited AFL Online during a specific time period or who purchased a specific product through the website, with our marketing partners, advertisers and others from time to time. This information generally is shared in an aggregated form.</p> <p>The AFL and AFL Clubs do not otherwise disclose personal information without your permission, unless the disclosure is:</p> <ul> <li>in accordance with this Privacy Policy or any agreement you enter into with us; or</li> <li>required or authorised by law, including without limitation the Australian Privacy Principles under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).</li> </ul> <p><strong>9 Accessing AFL Online</strong></p> <p>“AFL Online” refers to the AFL website with its top-level domain located at http://www.afl.com.au/, all related sub-domains and any other AFL website (including any AFL Club website) which provides an AFL and AFL Club product, AFL and AFL Club service or AFL-related product or service including related mobile applications.
