Privacy Policy

WHY YOUR PRIVACY IS SO IMPORTANT TO US

Womanly Ways is a provider of sanitary care products. In the course of our normal operations, we may collect and use personal and sensitive information about our clients to ensure delivery of appropriate, timely and quality services. This imposes responsibilities on our employees to ensure that the privacy of confidential information is safeguarded. 

Disclosure of this information to Womanly Ways places us in a position of trust within the community and as such we seek to protect the privacy of individuals in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 and the National Privacy Principles within the Privacy Amendment (Private Sector) Act 2000. This Act lays down strict privacy safeguards which organisations such as Womanly Ways must observe in dealing with personal information. 

This policy statement is intended to inform our clients of the purposes for which data will be used and the safeguards preventing non-authorised use of, or access to, confidential information.

All personnel acting on behalf of Womanly Ways are subject to the Privacy Act and must explain the primary purpose for collecting information from individuals. In most cases this is transactional information required to ensure delivery of products. 

LOOKING AFTER YOUR RIGHTS

The Privacy Act prohibits any person from accessing, using or disclosing any personal information in the possession of Womanly Ways, except if that person is performing their duties. 

To enable Womanly Ways to provide our products and services to clients we may require:

  • Name and address of client

  • Personal and demographic details

  • The frequency and type of products client’s may require

  • Payment preferences and relevant transactional information

Personal information will only be collected where it is necessary for the client’s primary purpose of being involved with Womanly Ways, and where possible will be collected directly from the client. 

Womanly Ways will make every effort to keep personal information up to date and accurate. This may mean that at times our staff will review the personal information held and request verification to its accuracy. 

Individuals may contact Womanly Ways by telephone (07) 3386 0864, to request access to aspects of their own personal information that Womanly Ways might hold. To notify Womanly Ways of any changes or corrections to personal information we request this to be provided in writing. 

ENSURING CONFIDENTIALITY

People using Womanly Ways services are assured their confidential personal information will only be used for the purpose for which they have provided it. It will not be provided to any person or agency without the consent of the client or their legally designated representative. 

Womanly Ways will only use or disclose client's personal records when it directly relates to their care or welfare, and only then with the consent of the client involved or as required by law. 

Information about clients contained in computer files will be stored in a password-protected file ensuring the information is accessible only to approved personnel. 

When practical, any person has the option of not identifying themselves when they communicate with Womanly Ways. 

ACCESS TO RECORDS

Authorised staff of Womanly Ways may have access to your records for the purpose for which the information was provided, or any purpose allowed by the Privacy Act. 

No one else, other than the client, will be permitted access to records without the consent of the client. Having given consent, the client may withdraw it at any time. 

A request to access a client’s records must be made in writing, indicating why access is being sought. This request will be evaluated as per the requirements and conditions of the Privacy Act. There may be instances where access is denied to certain records or aspects of records in accordance with the Privacy Act. 

Womanly Ways is keen to ensure it adheres to the National Privacy Principles and protects the individual’s right to privacy. The Manager should be contacted to lodge any concerns, complaints or suggestions. A response to a complaint, concern or suggestion will be provided in a timely manner. Where a complaint requires investigation, the findings of the investigation will be discussed with the complainant.
