We may also disclose your personal information where you have consented to us doing so. Your consent to the disclosure of your personal information may be given explicitly such as in writing or verbally or may be implied from your conduct such as when you discuss details of the relationship you have with us publicly with the media. Generally however we do not disclose your personal information to a party outside Cooee X Press Pty Ltd, unless that party is contracted to Cooee X Press Pty Ltd to provide products, administrative services or activities on our behalf and that party is bound by the same privacy rules we follow.

You may request access to any of the personal information we hold about you. In most cases, a summary of personal information such as your name and address details, contact telephone numbers and the products and services you have with us are freely available to you by contacting us.

Can my request for access to my personal information be denied?
Cooee X Press Pty Ltd is not always required to provide you with access to your personal information upon your request. We may refuse you access to personal information in a number of circumstances such as where the information may relate to existing or anticipated legal proceedings with you, where denying access is required or authorised by law, or where the request for access is regarded as frivolous or vexatious. If we deny your request for access to, or refuse your request to correct your personal information, we will explain why.
What is a Commonwealth identifier?
A Commonwealth identifier is a Commonwealth Government or Commonwealth Government agency designated identification number such as your Tax File Number (TFN) or Medicare number. Cooee X Press Pty Ltd does not use Commonwealth identifiers as a means of identifying the personal information that we may have collected about you. We only use Commonwealth identifiers as a means by which you may prove your identity, say when required by law such as when we supply your TFN to the Australian Taxation Office.
Do I have to be identified at all?
Generally it is not possible for us to do business with you unless we have identified you and in some cases, such as when you wish to apply for an account, the law requires that you identify yourself to us. Wherever it is lawful and practicable to do so, we may offer you the opportunity to deal with us anonymously. For example, when making an inquiry about current products, services or enquiring as to availability of products or services we offer.
Does my personal information leave Australia?
Cooee X Press Pty Ltd does not send personal information outside Australia unless it is authorised to do so by law.
Access to our services via the Internet.

Security of your personal information online.
Generally e-mail is not a secure way to communicate therefore you should not send your personal information to us via e-mail unless you are using our secure information service or one of our online forms on our Web site. Cooee X Press Pty Ltd maintains current technology and procedures in respect to its online transactions. These measures are continually updated to maintain this security.
