Privacy Policy

MINERS DATA is committed to keeping your personal information secure. Please read the information below to become familiar with our policies regarding your information and MINERS DATA website.

Openness and Transparency

1. We are committed to protecting your privacy and respecting and upholding your rights under the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Privacy Act).
2. We ensure that we will take all necessary and reasonable steps to comply with the APPs and to deal with inquiries or complaints from individuals about compliance with the APPs.
3. By accessing and using our website, products, and services, you agree to and consent to the collection, use, storage and disclosure of personal information by us as set out in this Privacy Policy.

Our Approach to your data / information ownership and use

1. We believe that any data and information you provide us access to, or is provided to us with your consent, will always remain yours.
2. While you interact with us or ask us to provide you with services, you also acknowledge and agree to let us use and access the data and information you provide.
3. We will use this to provide you the services, but also for internal testing and product development.
4. We’ll treat your data and information in accordance with your instructions, especially with respect to selling it, sharing it, or moving it.
5. In some cases, we may treat your data or in ways that we reasonably infer you have consented to – e.g., if you’ve asked us to provide you with a specialised dashboard service, we may need to provide third-parties with access to your data or information to make this happen.
6. The Privacy Policy below gives more details about different aspects of our approach, but if you have any questions regarding our approach or treatment of your data and information, please reach out at support@minersdata.com.

Personal information

1. Under Australian Privacy laws, our obligations attach to your “personal information” rather than data more broadly.
2. Different data sets you provide us access to (e.g., financial records), or that we build up over time, will include various bits of personal information, though sometimes you will also provide us with personal information directly (e.g., if you send us an email with your name and contact details in it).
3. Personal information is information or an opinion about an individual whose identity is apparent, or can be reasonably ascertained, from that information or opinion (whether true or not, and whether recorded in a material form or not).
4. The type of personal information we collect from you includes, without limitation, the following:
1. your full name.
2. address.
3. email address.
4. telephone number(s).
5. date of birth.
6. ABN, GST and other registration information.
7. Associated profile information, such as information relating to any third-parties profile details you connect to your Miners Data services, or otherwise provide us with.
8. Statistical information, which is generated by your use of Miners Data products or services such as (but not limited to) your preferences, habits, trends, and usage patterns.
9. any personal information that is provided over third-parties platforms either by yourself directly or through unsolicited third-parties. 

Collection

1. We will collect personal information (including any incidental sensitive information) only by lawful and fair means and not in an unreasonably intrusive way.
2. Generally, we will collect personal information directly from you, or from an agent or service provider who is acting with your consent.
3. Our practice is to only collect personal information to the extent necessary to provide our constantly evolving products and services, and to carry out our administrative functions or as required by law.
4. We may also collect person information from you when you register an account, ask us to provide you with services, communicate with us, visit our websites or platforms, provide us with feedback or complete online surveys.
5. We may also collect personal information about you from third-parties where you have consented to them providing us with the information.
6. We require individuals to provide accurate, up-to-date, and complete personal information at the time it is collected.
7. If you use a pseudonym when dealing with us or you do not provide identifiable information to us, we may not be able to provide you with any or all of our services as requested.
8. If you wish to remain anonymous, please do not use our website or subscribe to our products or services.

3. where legally appropriate, our external business advisors, auditors, lawyers, insurers and financiers.

Access and management

1. Subject to some exceptions provided by law, you may request access to your personal information in our customer account database, or seek correction of it, by contacting us at support@minersdata.com.
2. Should we decline you access to your personal information, we will provide a written explanation setting out our reasons for doing so.
3. We may charge a reasonable fee that is not excessive to cover the charges of retrieving your personal information from our customer account database.

7. If we no longer need your personal information for any of the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, or as otherwise required by law, we will take such steps as are reasonable in the circumstances to destroy your personal information or to de-identify it.

Direct marketing

1. Where we have your express or implied consent, or where we are otherwise permitted by law, we may use your personal information to send you information about products and services we believe are suited to you and your interests or we may invite you to attend special events.
2. At any time, you may opt out of receiving direct marketing communications from us.
3. Unless you opt out, your consent to receive direct marketing communications from us and to the handling of your personal information as detailed above, will continue.  
4. You can opt out by following the unsubscribe instructions included in the relevant marketing communication, or by contacting us in writing at support@minersdata.com.

Cross-border disclosure

1. We may disclose your personal information to third-parties Recipients located in or outside of Australia to provide our website, products and services to you.  
2. When entering a transaction with us you consent to your personal information being disclosed or transferred to such Recipients and you acknowledge and agree that we have no obligation to take such steps as are reasonable in the circumstances to ensure that the information that is transferred or disclosed to the Recipients will be treated in a manner that is consistent with the APPs.
3. You also agree that insofar as the law allows, we have no liability to you or anyone else for any breach by the Recipient of the APPs.
