Privacy Policy

About this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Show Support Pty Ltd collects, holds, discloses and otherwise processes personal data and the steps that Show Support Pty Ltd takes to secure the personal data that it holds. In this Privacy Policy, “we”, “our” and “us” are all references to Show Support Pty Ltd ABN 42 112 726 833 of 152/10 Park Road, Hurstville NSW 2220 Australia.

We are committed to complying with our privacy obligations in accordance with all applicable data protection laws, including the Australian Privacy Principles contained in Schedule 1 to the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (the “Privacy Act”). We comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) to the extent it applies to the personal data that we collect, hold, disclose and otherwise process (“GDPR Data”).

If we decide to change this Privacy Policy, we will post the updated version on this webpage so that you will always know what personal data we gather, how we might use that information, and whether we will disclose it to anyone.

What is personal data?

In this Privacy Policy, “personal data” has the meaning given to the term “personal information” in the Privacy Act (except in relation to GDPR Data – in which case “personal data” has the meaning given to it in the GDPR)

The Privacy Act defines “personal information” as information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable (a) whether the information or opinion is true or not; and
(b) whether the information or opinion is recorded in a material form or not. Section 187LA of the Telecommunications (Interception and Access) Act 1979 extends the meaning of personal information to cover information kept under Part 5‑1A of that Act.

Article 4(1) of the GDPR defines “personal data” as any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

The types of personal information we collect

Our policy is to minimise the amount of personal data we collect. Accordingly, we only collect personal data that is adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary for the purpose for which it is to be processed and only where we are entitled by law to collect it. We may also use collected personal data for other related, directly related or compatible purposes (if and where permitted by applicable law).

We collect the following types of personal data:

β€’ Contact details, transaction, employment and payment data: We collect names, gender, job titles, next of kin name, telephone numbers, mobile phone numbers, email addresses, occupation, credit card details, ABNs, tax file numbers, bank account details, records of products and services supplied to a person, postal addresses, residential addresses, business addresses, information contained in resumes and employment records such as employment history, education, qualifications, medical certificates, academic transcripts, salary details, superannuation account detail, and criminal record personal data contained in comments and feedback and personal preferences. We also collect shift or times worked and scheduled for work, emergency contact details (that we use in case of an employee or contractor emergency or where we cannot get in contact with an employee or contractors), qualifications, skills, certifications and accreditations and photos of employees and contractors. We will process this personal data in order to administer our client, employment, contractor and business relationships, to answer questions about and to provide and manage our services, and to otherwise enforce our rights and comply with our obligations. As a labour provider company, it is also necessary for us to collect personal data from our employees and contractors so that we can arrange, manage and monitor their provision of services on our behalf to our clients.

β€’ Location data: We collect location data of employees and contractors when they are traveling to/from Show Support-managed events and while at such events or on breaks where they use smartphone applications that enable location tracking. Such location tracking may also include tracking of the times during which an employee or contractor was at a particular location while traveling to/from Show Support-managed events and while at such events or on breaks). Employees and contractors may disable location tracking via the settings on their smartphone operating systems.

β€’ β€’Computer and network usage data: Subject to applicable laws, we may carry out electronic surveillance of our employees and contractors when they use our computer equipment, smartphone devices and networks to monitor compliance with company policies (including our Corporate IT Systems and Social Media Policy). This surveillance includes tracking and monitoring, reviewing and logging emails sent and received, websites visited, content viewed and files uploaded/downloaded. It also includes IP addresses, server names, database names, network names, serial numbers of equipment used, WiFi passwords, computer names, application names, browser history, user access logs, usernames, passwords, technical support log tickets, bandwidth used, error messages, social media handles, FTP server addresses, usernames and passwords, hostnames, subnet masks, router names and server addresses.

β€’ Website analytics data: We collect and process personal data known as analytics data for analytical purposes, designed to measure and monitor how our websites are being used and to highlight any areas for improvement, optimisation and enhancement of our websites, including user location, IP addresses, cookie data, information about devices accessing our websites (IP address, the type of device used to access our websites and the operating system), the amount of time a user spent on our website and in which parts of it, and the path they navigated through it. We will process this personal data in order to monitor and detect unauthorised use of our websites, and to establish how our websites are used and to highlight areas for potential improvement of our websites. We often aggregate this data with other data. However, where the aggregated data is classified as personal information (or in the case of GDPR Data, personal data) we treat it in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

β€’ Cookies and other Tracking Technologies: We use cookies and other tracking technologies (such as traffic analytics) on our websites for website functionality, performance and advertising purposes. We will not place such tracking technologies on your computer, smartphone or electronic device without your consent, unless they are required in order for us to provide the functionality supplied by our websites.

Such cookies may be installed by us or by our third contractors. Cookies enable us to remember and recognise you to better facilitate your user satisfaction when you visit our websites by helping us tailor and improve the information we present to you.

You should consider the privacy policies of any relevant third party websites and platforms prior to sending your personal data to them.

You may interact with social media platforms via social media widgets and tools such as the Facebook Like button and the Facebook pixel that may be installed on our websites.

If you refuse to provide us with personal data
If you do not provide us with your personal data, you can only have limited interaction with us. For example, you can browse our website without providing us with personal information, such as the pages that generally describe the services that we make available, and our Contact Us page. However, when you submit a form on our website, or become a client or otherwise enter into a business relationship with us, we need to collect personal data from you in order to identify who you are, so that we can provide you with services, and for the other purposes described in this Privacy Policy. You have the option of not identifying yourself or using a pseudonym when contacting us to enquire about our services, but not if you wish to actually obtain our services. It is not practical for us to provide you with our services if you refuse to provide us with personal data.

Spam email
We do not send “junk” or unsolicited e-mail in contravention of the Spam Act 2003 (Cth). We will, however, use e-mail in some cases to respond to inquiries, confirm purchases, or contact clients. These transaction-based e-mails are automatically generated. Anytime a client or visitor receives e-mail it does not want from us they can request that we not send further e-mail by contacting us via email at: privacy@showsupport.com.au or using any ‘unsubscribe’ tool contained in any communication we send. Upon receipt of any such request, we will ensure that they cease to receive automated emails from us.

Offshore data transfers
We may transfer your personal data to our contractors and service providers who assist us with providing our products and services to you, and to assist us with the operation of our business generally, where we consider it necessary for them to provide that assistance.

Provided that we comply with applicable law, including the provisions of Australian Privacy Principle 8 (Cross-border disclosure of personal information), and the GDPR – in relation to GDPR Data, we may transfer your personal data to our offshore contractors and service providers as well, who may be located outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA). At present, we do not transfer personal data out of Australia.

We will only engage new third parties to process GDPR Data that you instruct us to process as a processor on your behalf if you have authorised us to do so pursuant to a specific or general written authorisation and otherwise in compliance with the requirements of the GDPR.

Retention and de-identification of personal data</strong

It is our policy to retain personal data in a form which permits identification of any person only as long as is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data was collected; and for any other related, directly related or compatible purposes if and where permitted by applicable law. We will only process personal data that you provide to us for the minimum length of time permitted by applicable law and only thereafter for the purposes of deleting or returning that personal data to you (except where we also need to retain the data in order to comply with our legal obligations, or to retain the data to protect your or any other person’s vital interests). Where you require personal data to be returned, it will be returned to you at that time, and we will thereafter delete all then remaining existing copies of that personal data in our possession or control as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, unless applicable law requires us to retain the personal data in which case we will notify you of that requirement and only use such retained data for the purposes of complying with those applicable laws.

Where the personal data is not GDPR Data and is personal information for the purposes of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), instead of destroying the personal information we may take such steps as are reasonable in the circumstances to de-identify the personal information that we hold about an individual where we no longer need it for any purpose for which it may be used in accordance with this Privacy Policy if the information is not contained in a Commonwealth record and we are not required by Australian law (or a court or tribunal order) to retain it.

β€’ The right of access
β€’ The right to rectification
