Privacy Policy
Introduction
Venus Packaging respects and upholds your rights under the Australian Privacy Principles contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (“Privacy Act”). This Privacy Policy lets you know what personal information of yours we hold, what we do with it, who we will disclose it to and how you can access the personal information we hold about you. You can also find out here how to change inaccurate personal information and how to opt out of receiving communications from us.
How does Venus Packaging collect and hold your personal information?
Where possible, Venus Packaging will generally collect your personal information directly from you. Venus Packaging may also collect personal information (such as your name and business contact details) from industry generated lead sources. We may also collect personal information from publically available sources, our website, direct sales and service enquiries or events with which you request further information.
What personal information about you does Venus Packaging collect and hold?
The information Venus Packaging collects will include supplier and customer contact details, such as your name, email address, telephone and fax number(s) and business address. Credit information may also be collected for establishing a customer account with us (but this will usually be corporate and commercial, rather than personal, information).
What does Venus Packaging do with your personal information?
We will only use and disclose your personal information for the purposes for which you provide it, being to provide our contracted services to you or receive products or services from you. Your information will normally be stored in our internal database and our domestic IT system. Some information may be stored by, or accessed by Venus Packaging’ operations (our related bodies corporate) located in the USA, Singapore, New Zealand, Taiwan, Hong Kong. This information is stored for the life of the contract of the customer/supplier and then once that ceases it is deleted.
Who will Venus Packaging disclose your personal information to?
Venus Packaging may disclose your personal information to our IT providers, lawyers, auditors, accountants, and in the case of contact details, to contracted marketing agents or our service providers.
In the event that your personal information is disclosed to an overseas recipient (that is not a related body corporate), we will also endeavour to take adequate measures to ensure that the personal information is handled by the overseas recipient in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and our instructions for the purposes described above. By providing Venus Packaging with your personal information, you consent to this disclosure of your personal information for purposes related to our provision of services to you or contractual relationship with you.

You may request access to personal information (including your credit information) we hold about you by contacting the Privacy Officer at the address below. Where we hold information that you are entitled to access, we will endeavour to provide you with a suitable range of choices as to how access is provided (eg, emailing or mailing it to you). A fee may be charged to cover the cost of retrieval.
If at any time you believe that personal information we hold about you is incorrect, incomplete or inaccurate, then you may request amendment of it and we will either amend the information or make a record of your comment, as we think appropriate.
Marketing
Where we have obtained your consent to do so, or in circumstances where you would reasonably expect that your personal information would be used or disclosed for this purpose, we may contact you from time to time with marketing material about our other products or services.
