The only personal information that we receive from our web site is when you send back any forms filled in by you during online
purchases, the file received is then securely deleted, being over-written 7 times with sixteen zeros. 16 x 7 = 112 zeros.

This information is naturally collected by way of a normal business transaction and requirements by law as far as credit card
details are obtained, either by emails or faxed or phoned sales orders.

your credit card. We accept, Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Diners Card.

and never to be divulged to any persons outside our organisation, unless required by an act of law to do so.

  we will send you email regarding our products and services and anything that is new and innovative regarding our
  services or product range.
  We do not nor will we spam you. We do not believe in unsolicited materials being emailed to anyone, unless requested.

Spamming is now a " Federal offence " attracting very hefty fines against individuals or companies who engage in
this time wasting and unnecessary evil practice. You can also report spammers to a Federal authorities web site.

we may occasionally send you direct mail about products and services that we feel may be of interest to you.

  Unitech Electronics Pty. Ltd. and under confidentiality agreement will send you these direct mailings only if you

  options.

or services as well there is provision by way of a "tick" that you do not want to receive such mailings.

On our ordering page Unitech Electronics Pty. Ltd. you will be asked for your confidential details as required by credit
card services.

  We will also ask for your email address in order to update you.
  These services are limited to Unitech Electronics Pty. Ltd. sales.
  Unitech Electronics Pty. Ltd. does not sell or rent or supply customer or client information to anyone.

5. What are Unitech's policy on updates, correcting, or deleting my personally identifiable information ?

Please contact Unitech Electronics Pty. Ltd. +61 (0) 2 9820 3555 for further instructions about updating, correcting or
deleting your information.

  Please note, we are required by taxation law to hold all transactions for a period of 5 years minimum, these transactions
  will contain credit card information details for a maximum of five years, this hand written sales sheet information will
  remain locked away and safely stored within our premises under strict security.
  At the end of five years, this information is shredded into fine paper particles and recycled to our local pet shop as pet
  litter paper. : The forms are so shredded into small 5 mm diameter particles that it would be impossible to try to
  distinguish one sheet from hundreds of other pulverised 5 mm diameter paper confetti dots.

6. How does Unitech Electronics Pty. Ltd. protect my personal financial-related information ?

  Securely keeping your personal financial-related information private is vitally important to us.
  As mentioned (above), we do not keep any personal records on any computer system, this reduces computer espionage.
  Surprising to most, we still perform and process all sales inquiries "by hand" on company printed paper forms, nothing is
  entered into a separate non-online computer that is totally inaccessible via the internet.

As with all information and re-capping, Unitech Electronics Pty. Ltd. will never rent or sell your personal financial-related
information as well believe it to be immoral and this includes all information kept by Unitech Electronics Pty. Ltd.

7. What security precautions are in place to protect the loss, misuse, or alteration of my information ?

  Security with regards to stored sales documents that contain credit card details is paramount all documents are securely
  locked away along with all our own personal records and dealing over the five year period as required by Taxation laws.
  Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

  Bearing this "internet vulnerability" in mind, we strive to protect your personal information, Unitech Electronics Pty. Ltd.
  cannot ensure or warrant the security of your information you transmit to us or from our online products or services, and you
  do solely at your own risk.
  Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security by decoding it, printing the file then deleting
  that file permanently from our computer systems using a special 7 times " write-over the file " method, again using 7 time 16
  zeros.   To add to this we use a separate firewall and NOD32 virus checking software.

8. What else should I know about my privacy ?

  Please bear in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online - for example through an email, that your
  information can be possibly ( or very remotely ) be collected and used by others if you have a worm virus or a Trojan virus in
  your computer's hard drive. We recommend NOD32 as a very effective weapon against infiltrations and yes, it is not free.
  We use it. Find NOD 32 here, http://www.nod32.com.au . Their local Australian representative is located in Queensland.

Even the major "banks" do warn you of this factor when using their 128 bit encryption when doing computer online banking.

  In short, we are of the belief that if you post personal information online that could ( remotely possible ) expose your details
  as accessible to someone unscrupulous in the public arena, you may even receive unsolicited messages from other parties in
  return without yours or our permission.

  If this event does occur, we need to be notified immediately and pass on the relevant details to the Australian Federal Police
  or the Cyber Crimes section of the New South Wales Police for identifying who has committed the infiltration.
  Please Note: Banks don't email you. It is not their policy of sending you any account requests via email. These are criminals.

  Ultimately, you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your information and at Unitech Electronics Pty. Ltd, every
  effort is taken not to expose your information and of course our own business information over the internet.
  We take all precautions very seriously as should you, to ensure not only your private credit card details and as well our own
  confidential records are kept securely away from prying evil eyes.

Please note: Click here to see the Terms and Conditions page.

Please be careful and responsible whenever you're online.

9. What if I object to these terms and conditions ?

  Any comments you wish to add or you do not agree or object to our privacy policy statement, please feel free to discuss them
  during our business hours, on 02 9820 3555 or you may put your suggestions and comments in writing to us, marking the
  envelope clearly with your full name and return address and full land line phone contact details and a suitable time to call.

Current from July 17th 2004 as amended on June 10th 2007.
