Privacy

For convenience, in this privacy policy, "we" means Biennale of Sydney Ltd and "you" means the person reading this policy.

Biennale of Sydney complies with The Privacy Act 1988 (Commonwealth of Australia) which generally covers the collection, use and disclosure, quality and security of personal information in many public and private sector organisations in Australia. The Act gives you rights to access and correct personal information about you. You also have the right to make a complaint if you think your personal information has been mishandled. The ten National Privacy Principles (NPP) http://www.privacy.gov.au in the Act set out how your personal information is protected and your rights as to how most private sector organisations handle your personal information. Where any information in this privacy policy varies from the NPP, the NPP will prevail.
