What information does INFORMATION BROKERS PTY LTD ACN 143 037 325 collect?

At different times, INFORMATION BROKERS PTY LTD ACN 143 037 325 may collect three types of information about you.

First, we use a feature of your browser called a "cookie" to assign identification to your computer. The cookie automatically identifies your computer - but not you - to our servers every time you visit our site. Cookies, by themselves, cannot be used to find out the identity of any user. Unless you specifically tell us, we will never know who you are, even though we assign your computer a cookie. You can turn the cookie's feature off by using your browser preference options - although you may not be able to utilise some services properly.

Second, we keep track of your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our Web site. Your IP address is also used to gather broad demographic information about you, such as your location and your Internet Service Provider. INFORMATION BROKERS PTY LTD ACN 143 037 325 may also collect aggregate information on how our users are utilising the site. This might include information regarding traffic patterns through the site and search queries.

Third, at specific times we may ask you to provide us with personal information in order for you to register for a service (e.g. INFORMATION BROKERS PTY LTD ACN 143 037 325 E-mail, Web Hosting) or to enter a competition. You may choose not to provide us with this information; however, this may limit our ability to provide you with a specific service or offer you personalised content. For example, INFORMATION BROKERS PTY LTD ACN 143 037 325 Product and / or Service Registration Form requests that you provide contact information (such as an e-mail address) and demographic information (such as post / zip code, your age and income level), as well as information regarding your interests.

You may "opt-out" of receiving mailings from us (see the delete/deactivate section below). Web Hosting registrations require similar contact information, demographic information and, if purchasing a service, credit card details. All transactions are protected through encryption and are never disclosed to a third party not directly involved in the transaction. Users may "opt-out" of receiving future mailings (see the delete/deactivate section below).
