Hepburn Community Wind Park Co-operative Pty Ltd (“Hepburn Wind”) respects your right to privacy and is bound by the National Privacy Principles contained in the Privacy Act (1988). Those Principles regulate most of our activities with respect to personal information collected, stored, used and disclosed by us.

As the operator of its website, Hepburn Wind needs to obtain and retain information about those who are using its website. We know you may be concerned about what we do with that information. You have our assurance that we will not disclose the information, and will use reasonable endeavours to prevent the disclosure of the information, except to the extent:

  • indicated at the time of supply of the information to us;
  • expressly permitted under any agreement with you;
  • required for performance by us of services for you;
  • required for the ordinary operation of our website or our business (eg to send you information about our services).
  • Subject to the above overriding prohibition on disclosure, Hepburn Wind may use the information as it sees fit for the purposes of its business.

The following disclaimers also apply:

From time to time the Hepburn Wind website may contain links to other websites. Hepburn Wind is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of those websites.

Although Hepburn Wind has implemented substantial security measures in relation to the information, as the website is linked to the internet and the internet is inherently insecure, Hepburn Wind cannot provide any absolute assurance regarding security of the information.

Hepburn Wind will not be liable in any way in relation to any breach of security or unintended loss or disclosure of information due to the website being linked to the internet.

If you would like to contact us or access this information you can do so by contacting us via info@heburnwind.com.au. You can also correct this information if it is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date.

This website privacy policy is subject to amendment at any time. Any amendment will be made on a prospective basis, i.e. all information received or retained before the time of any amendment will remain subject to the policy applicable before the amendment. Changes will be notified by publishing them on our website.

This website privacy policy is separate from our policy regarding personal information (for the purposes of the Privacy Act 1988) and does not override any rights you have under that Act.
