Your Privacy is Important to us

This Privacy Policy is Richard Noble and Company’s (Richard Noble) online privacy policy and it applies to all personal information collected by Richard Noble through one of its websites. In this policy, we explain how and why we collect your personal information, how we use it, and what controls you have over it.

Richard Noble is committed to complying with legislation governing privacy and to protecting and safeguarding your privacy when you deal with us.

Collection of information

Some information provided to us might be considered private or personal in nature. Without these details we would not be able to carry out our business and provide our services to you. We will only collect such personal information if it is necessary for one of our services or activities.

In particular, personal information is collected in the following situations by Richard Noble:

  • If you contact Richard Noble, we may keep a record of that correspondence;
  • When you submit your personal details through either our online contact form, by email or through the online registration to one of our mailing lists.

At or before the time the personal information is collected by us we will take reasonable steps to ensure that you are made aware of who we are, the fact that you are able to gain access to the information held about you, the purpose of the collection, the type(s) of organisations to which we may disclose the information, any laws requiring the collection of the information, and the main consequences for you if all or part of the information is not collected.

At any time you may opt-out of receiving marketing communications from us by either contacting us by email (info@rnoble.com.au), by text message, or by using the opt-out facilities provided in the marketing communications. If you opt-out your name will be removed from the mailing list.

Use of information collected and disclosure of personal information to others

We may use or disclose personal information held about an individual for the primary purpose for which it is collected (eg. provision of our services, including administration of our services, notification to you about changes to our services, record-keeping and compliance). We may use such information for a purpose related to the primary purpose of collection and where it would reasonably be expected by you that we would use the information in such a way. This information is only disclosed to persons outside our business in the circumstances set out in this policy or as otherwise notified to you at the time of collection.

In addition, we may use or disclose personal information held about you:

  • Where you have consented to the use or disclosure;
  • Where we reasonably believe that the use or disclosure is necessary to lessen or prevent a serious, immediate threat to someone’s health or safety or the public’s health or safety;
  • Where we reasonably suspect that unlawful activity has been, is being or may be engaged in and the use or disclosure is a necessary part of our investigation or in reporting the matter to the relevant authorities;
  • Where such use or disclosure is required under or authorised by law (for example, to comply with a subpoena, a warrant or other order of a court or legal process);
  • Where we reasonably believe that the use or disclosure is reasonably necessary for prevention, investigation, prosecution and punishment of crimes or wrongdoings or the preparation for, conduct of, proceedings before any court or tribunal or the implementation of the orders of a court or tribunal by or on behalf of an enforcement body.
