Introduction

Thank you for visiting the MOR website and reviewing our privacy policy. MOR is committed to safeguarding the privacy of everyone who shops or interacts with us online and in person.

MOR is also bound by the National Privacy Principles set out in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). MOR will only collect, use or disclose personal information about you in accordance with that Act. Please read the following policy to understand how MOR deals with the personal information that it collects about you.

Your access and use of this website is conditional on your acceptance of this privacy policy. Your continued use of this site indicates your consent to the collection and use by us of any personal information you provide whilst using the site, in the manner set out below. You should also read our Terms and Conditions for Use of Website which also govern your access and use of this website

We reserve the right to change this privacy policy at any time. If the policy is changed, details of the changes will be posted on this website but we will not separately notify you of these changes.

Personal Information

When we talk about personal information we are referring to the definition in the Privacy Act which states that:

“Personal information” means information or an opinion (including information or an opinion forming part of a database), whether true or not, and whether recorded in a material form or not, about a person whose identity is apparent, or can be reasonably ascertained, from the information or opinion.

What personal information does MOR collect?

MOR collects personal information from a wide variety of sources including this website. We only collect information that is necessary for one or more or our functions or activities, and we only keep it for as long as we may require it for a legitimate business purpose.

If you do nothing during your visit but browse through the website, read the pages or download information then our website will automatically record some information about your visit to the site. The type of information that will be collected includes the type of web browser and operating system that you are using, the date and time of visit to or site and the web pages that you accessed. If you linked to our site from another site then that information will also be recorded. We may use this information for statistical analysis but the system does not record personal information about individuals unless you volunteer it.

Among the personal information that MOR commonly collects is the following:

• Name, address and telephone numbers;
• Transaction records, including those relating to your purchases or other business dealings with us;
• Records of any queries or complaints that you may make;
• E-mail address where the individual has:
  • selected to register for information service via the Website or has contacted the MOR Consumer Enquiries Team by email;
  • otherwise contacted us by email; or
  • otherwise been requested to provide an email address;
  • provided an email address through promotions, competitions or customer surveys;
• Recordings of some telephone calls to Consumer Enquiries; and
• Any other information that an individual has provided to us as a result of any dealing, transaction or negotiation with us.

When we collect personal information from an individual, we ensure that we do so in a fair manner. We will also use our best efforts to let the individual know:

• how to contact us
• why we are collecting the information;
• the organisation or types of organization to which we usually disclose that kind of information;
• if we are required by law to collect that information; and
• the consequences for you if the information is not provided

Use of personal information

The National Privacy Principles require that, other than for certain specified exceptions, we only use your information for the purpose for which it was collected or a purpose related to that purpose. Some of the purposes for which we commonly use your information are as follows:

• provide you with news and information about our products and services or a third party business which we believe may be of interest to you;
•  to assist in providing our products and services to you;
• to assist with any calls that you make to MOR Consumer Enquiries;
• to communicate promotional offers and special events; and for our internal administrative, marketing, planning, product development and research requirements.

However, MOR may also use information for any other purpose for which the information was provided and for purposes reasonably related to that purpose.

Disclosure of your information

We may disclose personal information for the purposes for which it was collected, and also:

• to any person where necessary or desirable in connection with our provision of services to you, such as to regulatory authorities, or other partners or advisors (whether in Australia or overseas)
• to other members of the MOR group of companies (in which case, your personal information will be collected, used, disclosed, managed and stored in accordance with this policy).
• on a confidential basis to external service providers so that they can provide financial, administrative or other services in connection with the operation of our business,
• to our our agents, business partners or joint venture entities or partners;
• in connection with any sale of our business (or any part of it);
• as required by law subject to our professional obligations, as permitted under the National Privacy Principles; and
• with your consent.

You will generally be given the opportunity to “opt out” from receiving communications from us or from third parties that send communications to you – for example, by unsubscribing from e-newsletters and other marketing or promotional material sent by us. You can do so by either clicking on an unsubscribe link at the end of an email or by contacting us at [email protected].
