Storage & Security of Personal Information

ZaaBiz takes all reasonable steps to ensure the security of our system.

As part of your membership with ZaaBiz, we collect personal information so that you may take full advantage of ZaaBiz’s services. ZaaBiz allows you to access your information at any time to keep it accurate and up to date. Any information which we hold for you is stored on secure servers that are protected in controlled facilities.

In addition, our employees and the contractors who provide services related to our information systems are obliged to respect the confidentiality of any personal information held by ZaaBiz. However, ZaaBiz will not be held responsible for events arising from unauthorised access of your personal information.

Please consider that you can also play an important role in keeping your personal information secure. Always maintain the confidentiality of any password and accounts used on the ZaaBiz site. Please notify us immediately if there is any unauthorised use of your account by any other Internet user or any other breach of security by emailing to [email protected].

Should you require assistance with updating your account or removing your details from the platform, this can be requested by emailing [email protected] . If you make an access request, ZaaBiz will ask you to verify your identity and specify what information you require.

Children

Children are not eligible to use our service and we ask that minors (under the age of 18) not submit any personal information to us or use ZaaBiz services.

Information Collection

ZaaBiz collects information on our members collectively including which sections of the site are most frequently visited, how often and for how long. This data is always used as aggregated, non-personal information. ZaaBiz utilises this information to improve and enhance our services by monitoring the areas on the site which are most popular to you. This aggregated information may be shared with ZaaBiz partners to provide them with an overview of how ZaaBiz visitors use the site. This is done for the purposes of providing you with the best online networking experiences.

IP Addresses

We may also collect other information about your visits to the ZaaBiz web site, such as the Internet Protocol (IP) address through which you access the Internet; the date and time you access the site; the pages that you access while at the site and the internet address of the web site from which you linked directly to our site.  This information is used to help improve the sites, analyse trends, and administer the sites.

Third Party Measurement

In order to better understand our users, ZaaBiz utilises a third party measurement company, Google Analytics, to assess the traffic on our sites. A tracking code is used to collect information on the usage of the ZaaBiz site, examples being:

The number of page views (or page impressions) that occur on ZaaBiz;

The number of unique visitors to ZaaBiz;

How long these unique visitors (on average) spend on ZaaBiz when they do visit; and

the most common entry and exit points into ZaaBiz.

This aggregate, non-personal information is collated and provided to ZaaBiz to assist in analysing the usage of the site. This data is also made accessible by ZaaBiz to media organisations and research companies, for the purpose of conducting industry comparisons with other Internet websites.

Email communications from ZaaBiz

ZaaBiz also provides you with selected information about news and networking-related topics in our email newsletter ZaaBiz News Update. This free service is sent to our members that have applied for it in their respective member section. ZaaBiz may also make you aware of additional products and services which form part of your relationship with ZaaBiz to further improve your networking capabilities.

ZaaBiz Partners

ZaaBiz may provide links to third party sites. The information provided by these third party sites is not within the control of ZaaBiz and we cannot accept responsibility for the conduct of these companies. ZaaBiz asks all partners to comply with Australian federal privacy policy with regard to their own information handling practices. You may also directly contact these third parties to request access to any personal information that you have sent as part of a potential application with them.

Trans-border data flows

Being a global networking platform we sometimes transfer information to persons outside Australia (e.g. a group with members located in Europe or the USA). By linking yourself to such a group and therefore giving them access to your personal information, you consent to such disclosures. In addition, we believe that the recipients of such information are subject to a law, binding scheme or contract which effectively upholds principles for fair handling of the information that are substantially similar to the National Privacy Principles in Australia.

Privacy & Site Changes

From time to time, ZaaBiz may review and update its privacy statement. Revised versions will be updated on the website.

Feedback

ZaaBiz welcomes ideas and feedback about all aspects of the site. ZaaBiz stores feedback that users send to us. This feedback will be used to administer and refine our membership services.

Contact Us

If you have any questions about this privacy statement, the practices of this site, or your dealings with ZaaBiz, you can contact us by email to [email protected] .
