Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through Peter Dutton public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others. Note: Peter Dutton does not read any of your private online communications.

Peter Dutton encourages you to review the privacy statements of websites you choose to link to from Peter Dutton so that you can understand how those websites collect, use and share your information. Peter Dutton is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on websites outside of the Peter Dutton and Peter Dutton family of websites.

Peter Dutton may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition, Peter Dutton may share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries. All such third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services to Peter Dutton, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.

Peter Dutton does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race, religion, or political affiliations, without your explicit consent.

Peter Dutton keeps track of the websites and pages our customers visit within Peter Dutton, in order to determine what Peter Dutton services are the most popular. This data is used to deliver customised content and advertising within Peter Dutton to customers whose behaviour indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

Peter Dutton websites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on Peter Dutton or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Peter Dutton ; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Peter Dutton or the public.

Use of Cookies

The Peter Dutton website uses “cookies” to help you personalise your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalise Peter Dutton pages, or register with Peter Dutton site or services, a cookie helps Peter Dutton to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Peter Dutton website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Peter Dutton features that you customised.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Peter Dutton services or websites you visit.

Security of your Personal Information

Peter Dutton secures your personal information from unauthorised access, use or disclosure. Peter Dutton secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorised access, use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other websites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

Changes to this Statement

Peter Dutton will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect company and customer feedback. Peter Dutton encourages you to periodically review this statement to be informed of how Peter Dutton is protecting your information.
