Privacy

This statement sets out The Big Book Club's policies relating to the privacy of your personal information.

The Big Book Club is operated in compliance with the South Australian Government's Information Privacy Principles.

The Big Book Club web site collects the following information from users:

A record of your visit and logs the following information for statistical purposes - the user's IP address, the date and time of the visit to the site, the pages accessed and documents downloaded, the previous site visited and the type of browser used. No attempt will be made to identify users or their browsing activities except, in the unlikely event of an investigation, where a law enforcement agency may exercise a warrant to inspect our service provider's logs. This information is analysed at the end of each month to determine the site's usage statistics.
The Big Book Club retains the e-mail address of people who subscribe through the "Subscribe" facility, for the purpose of sending a subscription response, accessing "Chat" and sending Big Book Club news and updates. They are stored in a secure area within the Government's Message Services System and will not be used for any other purpose nor disclosed without your consent.

No personal details are provided to any other individual or organisation, and access to this information is restricted to members of The Big Book Club team.

Please note that The Big Book Club contains links to a large number of other web sites that are included on the basis of containing content, information or material related to The Big Book Club. When a user has clicked on a link to another site, they leave The Big Book Club site and are no longer protected by The Big Book Club Privacy conditions.

This privacy statement is periodically reviewed in line with the ongoing development of The Big Book Club Website.
