This Privacy Policy sets out how and why Recstra Pty Ltd, ACN 602 936 998, (“Recstra”, “we” or “us”) collects, stores, uses and discloses your personal information and how you may access personal information about you and seek correction of such information.
We collect a variety of information from visitors to our website, some of which can be confidential. This document explains the types of information we collect, how we collect it, and what we do with that information (among other things).
By visiting our website, using any of our services or otherwise providing us with your personal information (or authorising it to be delivered to us by someone else), you agree to your personal information being handled as set out in this Privacy Policy.
Recstra may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, so please review it periodically for changes on our website at recstra.com.

Like most website operators, Recstra collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Recstra’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to understand better how Recstra’s visitors use its website. The data collected will also help us troubleshoot problems, analyse our resources and improve our services. There is nothing in that kind of information that could enable anyone to identify who you are.
Recstra also collects potentially personal information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users. Recstra only discloses logged in user IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personal information as described below.
In certain circumstances, we may be required or permitted by law, court or tribunal order to collect certain personal information about you.
Visitors to Recstra’s website choose to interact with Recstra in ways that require Recstra to gather personal information. The amount and type of information that Recstra gathers depend on the nature of the interaction. We collect personal information in several ways, including:
In each case, Recstra collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfil the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Recstra. Recstra does not disclose personal information other than as described below.

By providing personal information to us, you are expressly and voluntarily accepting the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy and agreeing to our processing of your personal information in ways set out in this Privacy Policy.
Where relevant you consent to Recstra posting and using any photographs, content and personal information, you might upload on our website or have otherwise provided permission to publish on our site, blog, in our marketing collateral or social media channels. These may use to deliver our services, the marketing of our services or for our functions and activities.

Electronic marketing is where we use your personal information to send you marketing information by email, SMS, MMS or other electronic means we may do so with your express or implied consent. You may give us your express consent by, for example, ticking a box on an electronic or signing in paper form where we seek your permission to send you electronic or other marketing information.
