SHARING INFORMATION

We do not disclose personal information we collect about you, except as described in this Global Privacy Notice. We may share personal information with service providers who perform services on our behalf based on our instructions, for example, credit card merchants, banks, website hosting and SEO companies. We do not authorize these service providers to use or disclose the information except as necessary to perform services on our behalf or comply with legal requirements.

Gemtec Opals reserves the right to transfer personal information we have about you in the event we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets.

INTEREST-BASED ADVERTISING

On our website, we may collect information about your online activities for use in providing you with advertising about products and services tailored to your individual interests. We also may obtain information for this purpose from third-party websites on which our ads are served. This section of our Global Privacy Notice provides details and explains how to exercise your choices.
You may see certain ads on other websites because we engage third-party ad buying networks (such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter). Through such buying networks, we can target our advertising to users. We can track your online activities over time automatically including through the use of third-party cookies, cookies, web server logs and pixels. The networks use this information to show you advertisements that may be tailored to your browsing history and interests. Data collection takes place both on our websites and affiliated third party websites. This process also helps us analyze our marketing effectiveness.

ONLINE TRACKING

When you use http://www.cliftonopal.com.au/ both we and certain third parties (for example our advertising partners and social media platforms) may collect personal information about your online activities, over time and across other websites. Certain web browsers allow you to instruct your browser to send Do Not Track (“DNT”) signals to websites you visit, informing those sites that you do not want your online activities to be tracked. When we recognize a relevant DNT signal, we aim to suppress the third-party tags that are used to recognize your computer once you navigate away from our site and which are used to present you with advertisements. Currently there is no uniform standard for DNT signal recognition, however we may update our policy as new technologies develop.

DATA TRANSFERS

We may transfer the personal information we collect within the Gemtec Group of companies.

HOW WE PROTECT PERSONAL INFORMATION

We maintain physical, technical and administrative safeguards designed to protect the personal information you provide against unintentional, illegal or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, release or use.

Internet transactions are conducted via a digitally signed, secure SSL server. Your credit card details are kept highly secure and are not transmitted via email. The page which collects your credit card details is high-grade encrypted before being sent over the internet.
SSL stands for Secure Socket Layer, securing the transfer of sensitive data such as credit card or login information between a web browser and a server. Having an SSL certificate enables the data to be encrypted so that it can only be read by the authorised server – even if the encrypted data is intercepted, it is unreadable.
