Privacy Policy


We understand and appreciate that you may be concerned about your privacy, the confidentiality and security of information we may gain about you online.

We are committed to protecting your privacy and to complying with the Australian Privacy Principles in the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Privacy Act).

The purpose of the Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) is to outline the Personal Information collected by us and the use of such information. In this policy, “Personal Information” means information or opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable in accordance with section 6 of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

By using the Website and App (“Application”), you agree to accept this Privacy Policy. Where this Privacy Policy uses a word starting with a capital letter, that term will be defined in the Terms and Conditions or elsewhere in this Policy. If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy or the Terms and Conditions, you should not use the Scopesuite Services, Website or App.

  • location information;
  • history records of your communication and interaction with us;

as well as other similar Personal Information that is needed to register or subscribe you to our services or offers. If we ever ask for significantly different information, we will inform you. If you do not provide certain requested Personal Information to us, we may not be able to provide you with access to and use of the Website and App, provide you with access to our other Products and Services, or to fulfill one or more of our functions and activities applicable to you.

  • Non-identifiable information

Non-identifiable information is data that has not been labeled with individual identifiers or from which identifiers have been permanently removed, and by means of which no specific individual can be identified.

We will collect Personal Information from users and customers in a variety of ways, including via electronically, in person, from employers or RTOs, when accessing our website (www.scopesuite.com.au) and when we provide a service to you.

We collect Personal Information for the primary purpose of providing our Services, providing information to our clients and marketing. We may also use Personal Information for secondary purposes closely related to the primary purpose, in circumstances where you would reasonably expect such use or disclosure.

In some circumstances we may be provided with information by third parties. In such case, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that you are made aware of the information provided to us by the third party.

Storing the Personal Information

We protect your Personal Information by:

  • Restricting access to Personal Information

We have secured our Site using industry standard technology. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed as completely secure. Once any information is in our possession, we will take reasonable steps to protect that information from misuse, loss, unauthorized access, and modification or disclosure. While we strive to protect such information, we cannot guarantee 100% the security of any information (personal or other) you transmit to us. Therefore, we will not be liable for any breach of security or unintended loss or disclosure of information due to the Website being linked to the Internet.

The Purposes of Collecting, Holding, Using and Disclosing Personal Information

We only collect Personal Information to the extent necessary to fulfill one or more of our functions and activities and will do so only by fair and reasonable means. We collect your Personal Information so that we can carry out the following actions (“Purpose”):

We will only use your Personal Information for the purposes for which it was collected, and we will not otherwise disclose your Personal Information without gaining your consent except where such disclosure is required by law.
