At FlashID we understand and
respect your concerns about privacy and our commitment is twofold.
First, the data placed in your Emergency
Identification Document (EID) and saved on your flashID device is owned,
determined and controlled by you, or a third party designated by you, if
appropriate.
Your personal information is not saved on any
database and you determine what is, and is not, included in the EID.
Second, as to our website,
we take our legal responsibilities seriously.
Consequently we collect and use personal information only in accordance with
this Privacy Policy which explains what information flashID
may collect, how this information may be used, and how it relates to the
operation of the website.
This Privacy Policy is subject to the Terms and
Conditions posted elsewhere on this website and has been drafted in accordance
with the
Australian National Privacy
Principles in the
Privacy Amendment (Private Sector) Act 2000 and the
Privacy Act of 1988. In New Zealand
we are bound by the
Privacy Act 1993.
You may contact us at any time to inspect your
own personal information that we are holding. Our contact details for this
purpose are at the foot of this notice.
What we collect from you, and how we use it
We need to collect personal information from you
for purposes of registration and communication, and we are at pains to ensure
that we ask only for essential information, without which we cannot provide you
with our full range of services.
Information is collected on the understanding
that you are providing information relating only to yourself, and not to any
third party.
FlashID collects and stores personal information in several ways at different
parts of our website. This information may include your legal name, email
address, age and gender. Apart from disclosure
requirements of the above Acts of Parliament, we do not disclose your personal
information to any other party unless you grant specific approval where and if
this is requested on any of our information forms.
However, we reserve the right to aggregate non-specific information for
statistical and other marketing purposes.
Data
security
FlashID
will take all reasonable steps and security methods to protect the personal
information it holds from misuse and loss and from unauthorised access,
modification or disclosure. Where
appropriate, we use passwords and other techniques to protect you and your
privacy.
Opting out
From time to time you may receive information
about flashID products, services and other items we believe
to be of interest. However, you may contact us at any time to request that your
name be removed from our distribution list.
Cookies
In order to maintain the highest possible standards of personalised service to
our members, we may use devices known as cookies
to store and sometimes track information about you, as well as reducing
the time required for you to submit your requests and for us to respond to such
requests. A cookie is a small amount of data that is transferred to your
computer's hard drive. All portions of the website that prompt you to log in or
that may be customised require that you accept cookies. No other company has
access to cookies placed on your computer by FlashID and
cookies will not be used by us to retrieve any information about you other than
what you have provided.
Although you may configure your web browser not to accept cookies, the features
of our website may not function properly if you do not accept cookies
Updating information
While FlashID has
responsibilities to you, you also have responsibilities. Specifically
these include maintaining and updating, as applicable, your Emergency
Identification Document with current, accurate and complete information.

The FlashID website contains
links to other websites and advertising. The privacy policies of those websites
