2. What personal information do we collect?

When you use our apps or websites or visit our venues, we collect the information about you that we need to run our business.

We may collect your personal information where you agree and when we reasonably need it to carry out our functions and activities, manage our business, or comply with the law.

When you are a professional contact, we may collect information about you if you are a representative of a partner, contractor, subcontractor, or third-party provider.

What if you don't want to give us your personal information?

We give people the option of not identifying themselves, where it is lawful and practical.

However, in some cases, if you don't give us your personal information, we may not be able to respond to your request or give you the service you want. For example:

We’re required by law to check proof of age in some cases, such as when you wish to buy alcohol or tobacco products.
You’ll need to identify yourself to sign up for our membership programs.
You’ll need to identify yourself to make an order for pick up or delivery.

When you visit our apps and websites, we may use methods such as ‘cookies’ and pixel tracking to collect anonymised information and statistics such as your IP address, general location, and which pages you visit, and to help show you relevant content on our sites and other sites. We may share this information with our advertising partners. You can read more in our Cookies Statement.

Direct marketing

Where you have created an account with us, we may use your personal information to send you marketing messages. This may include contacting you in various ways, including by mail, email, SMS or phone.

You can opt out of receiving marketing messages at any time:

For emails and SMS messages, you can use the unsubscribe option included in the message. In limited circumstances, our cybersecurity controls may block you from accessing our sites in order to unsubscribe. If this happens, please send an email to privacysupport@edg.com.au with the brand and channel(s) (i.e. email or SMS) that you wish to unsubscribe from and we will ensure that your request is actioned as soon as possible.
For phone calls, you can tell the caller that you no longer wish to receive calls or other marketing messages.

Retention

We aim to keep your personal information for as long as we need it to do our work and comply with the law. When we no longer need it, we work to destroy or de-identify it.

Third parties

We partner with other organisations or hire other companies to help us do our work (‘third parties’). These third parties may collect your personal information on our behalf and provide it to us. We may also share your personal information with these third parties. These third parties may include:

information technology and data storage providers
partners or related organisations
research and statistical analysis providers.

We may also collect personal information from partners and combine different sets of data to add to the personal information we hold. An example of this is a history of a member’s transactions from use of the same payment card for purchases at one or more of our businesses.

When we work with third parties, we require them to handle your personal information safely and in a way that meets Australian privacy laws.

4. Transfer of personal information outside Australia

We sometimes disclose or store personal information outside of Australia. When we do this, we take steps to keep it safe.

In some cases, we may disclose personal information outside Australia – for example, to a third-party technology service provider or partner. When we do this, we require them to handle your personal information safely, and in a way that meets Australian privacy laws.

5. Personal rights

What are your rights?

You have the right to access the personal information that we hold about you and ask us to update or correct it if it is not accurate.

There are some exceptions to these rights. For example, we can’t give you access to personal information about other people, or if it contains commercially sensitive information.

We’ll agree to your request if it’s reasonable and lawful for us to do so. If we don’t agree, or we only partially agree, we’ll:

write to you to explain our decision (except if it’s unreasonable to do so), and
give you information on your options, including how to make a complaint.

Is there a fee?

If it will take a long time for us to satisfy your request, we may charge a fee, depending on the complexity and size of your request, to cover the time we spend finding and putting together the personal information you want. If there is a fee, we will let you know how much it will likely be, so you can choose if you want to go ahead.

How long will it take?

We’ll respond to your request within 30 days. We will let you know if we think it will take us more than 30 days to meet your request.

Before we manage your request, we will need to confirm your identity to protect your information.
