This policy sets out how we will collect, use, disclose and protect your personal information. This policy does not limit or exclude any of your rights under the Act.

We may change this policy by uploading a revised policy onto the website. The change will apply from the date that we upload the revised policy.


What personally identifiable information do you collect from me?
We do not collect private or personal information from this website, except where you willingly provide it.
If you contact us we may keep a record of that correspondence. We occasionally ask users to complete surveys that we use for research purposes. You may edit any personal information that we hold on you by contacting us. Your information can be updated, corrected or deleted at your request at any time.


Internet Use
While we take reasonable steps to maintain secure internet connections, if you provide us with personal information over the internet, the provision of that information is at your own risk.
If you post your personal information on the website's 'Share an Idea' area, you acknowledge and agree that the information you post may be publicly available.
If you follow a link on our website to another site (e.g. Facebook), the owner of that site will have its own privacy policy relating to your personal information. We suggest you review that site’s privacy policy before you provide personal information.


What are cookies and do you use them?
Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your device’s hard drive to enable our systems to recognise your browser. If you want to disable cookies, you may do so by changing the settings on your browser. However, if you do so, you may not be able to use all of the functions on the website.

We also use the technical information we collect to have a better understanding of the way people use our website, to improve the way it works and to personalise it to be more relevant and useful to your particular needs.

InCommon also uses analytics platforms and/or marketing services. These services may be linked to our websites through the use of social media buttons and pixels.
