Australian Privacy Principles

The Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) apply to ‘APP entities’ and are contained within the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

Open and transparent management of personal information (APP 1)

This Privacy Policy states how we manage personal information, as Diolog aims to be as transparent as possible. 

Anonymity and pseudonymity (APP 2)

Personal information is used for identification purposes. 

Collection and solicited personal information (APP 3)

Personal information is collected and solicited through lawful and direct means. This means before any user engages with Diolog, they are provided with all the necessary privacy information in addition to a request for consent. 

Dealing with unsolicited personal information (APP 4)

Diolog has restricted access to any means by which any potentially unsolicited information could be provided. However, in the instance where unsolicited information is received, we will, as legally obligated, destroy and de-identify any unsolicited personal information if it may arise.

Notification of the collection of personal information (APP 5)

Where personal information is required, users are clearly notified and provided with necessary information as detailed in this Privacy Policy. 

Use or disclosure of personal information (APP 6)

Diolog only uses personal information required to perform our ‘primary purpose’ (functionality of software). Other reasonable secondary purposes may include disclosing information to employees or related bodies, third party service providers and existing or potential agents, business partners or advisors.  (Refer to the section above, Who do we disclose your personal information to, and why?)

Direct marketing (APP 7)

Personal information, such as your email address, may be used to send electronic marketing communications about Diolog and information we believe may interest you. If you receive electronic marketing communications from us, there is always the choice to opt out of receiving any further marketing communications. 

Cross-border disclosure of personal information (APP 8)

Diolog does not disclose any personal information overseas. We only host to Tier 1 providers with hosting in Australia. Diolog only provides our service to Australian listed companies and their investors.  

Adoption, use or disclosure of government related identifiers (APP 9)

Diolog does not adopt, use or disclose government related identifiers such as medicare numbers, Centrelink Reference numbers, State and Territory issued licences or Australian passport numbers. 

Quality of personal information (APP 10)

Diolog takes reasonable steps to ensure personal information is accurate and up-to-date. To ensure the quality of data, our multi-factor authentication process naturally plays a role in data maintenance. We have also embedded functionality to allow users to review and edit the information they provide if necessary.

Security of personal information (APP 11)

Communication data between the user and server is encrypted using SSL and TLS certificates. 

Data communication between the user and server is encrypted using SSL TLS certificates. The data is stored with MongoDB in their MongoDB Altas environment which is PCI compliant. Diolog is in the process of embedding comprehensive third party security software.

Access to personal information (APP 12)

Upon request, Diolog will gladly provide individual access to personal information which has been provided by that individual.

Correction of personal information (APP 13)

Diolog takes steps to ensure the personal information of users is correct and up to date. Users may request access or request a correction of the personal information held. Diolog will respond to requests to access or correct personal information in a reasonable time. We do however reserve the right to provide users with information Diolog holds in certain circumstances set out in the Privacy Act. 

How do you make a request or complaint? 

If you have a complaint about the way in which we have handled any privacy issue, or to request access, correction or deletion of your personal information, you should contact us. Our contact details are set out below.

We will consider any complaint and determine whether it requires further investigation. We will notify you of the outcome of this investigation and any subsequent internal investigation. We will action any request for access, correction or deletion in accordance with our legal obligations and within a reasonable time, or if unable to action your request, explain why.

If you are not satisfied we have handled a privacy issue, you may approach an independent advisor or contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (www.oaic.gov.au) for guidance on alternative courses of action which may be available.
