What sort of personal information does Oldmac Toyota collect?
The type of personal information that we collect will depend on the circumstances of collection.

For vehicle purchases, we also collect information such as the vehicle make, model and colour, options and accessories supplied, price paid, trade-in details, vehicle identification number, registration details, driver's licence number, odometer reading, finance and insurance details and details of any roadside assistance services or extended warranty purchased. We may also collect details of other interactions that you have with us, together with any other information that you choose to provide us with.
The collection of sensitive information is restricted by the Privacy Act.

How does Oldmac Toyota collect personal information?
We will not usually seek to collect sensitive information (e.g data relating to race or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, political preference, criminal record, physical or mental health, or sexual orientation from you. However, you acknowledge that such information may be collected (including inadvertently such as via photographs or other records) by us. You acknowledge that information may be contained in documents or other records which you have provided to us.
If it is necessary for us to collect sensitive information, although you again acknowledge that we may collect such information inadvertently, we will obtain your explicit consent to collect and use such information.
Much of the personal information that we hold is collected when you purchase a vehicle or parts and accessories from us, when you trade-in a vehicle or when you have your vehicle repaired or serviced by us. We may also collect personal information in a number of other ways, for example when you:
• Contact us with a query (whether in person, or by phone, fax, social media, email, through the forms on the Oldmac Toyota website or through carsales.com.au or drive.com.au)
• Take a vehicle for a test drive or use one of our hire vehicles

• Restricted access to personal information to staff who need it to perform their day to day functions
• Conducting training to ensure that staff are aware that they must only access, use and disclose personal information for appropriate purposes

• Maintaining physical security over paper records
How long does Oldmac Toyota keep personal information?

Use of Commonwealth government identifiers
We will not use Commonwealth government identifiers ("Identifiers") (such as Medicare numbers) as our own identifier of individuals. We will only use or disclose Identifiers in the circumstances permitted by the Privacy Act.
Transfer of personal information overseas
If Oldmac Toyota transfers your personal information outside Australia, we will comply with requirements of the Privacy Act that relate to transborder data flows. Please note that some of the servers on which Toyota Australia's customer information is held are located overseas and owned by Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota Australia's Japanese parent company). As a result, personal information collected and held by Toyota Australia may be transferred overseas to be held on these servers.
If your personal information is to be provided to overseas entities, we will take all necessary steps to inform you (which you accept may be done by way of amendment of this policy) and ensure that the security of the information is maintained and that it is used consistent with this policy and our obligations under the Privacy Act.
Access to personal information by individuals
Please contact the Oldmac Toyota Customer Relations Manager (details provided at the end of this policy) if you would like to access or correct the personal information that we hold about you. We will generally provide you with access to your personal information. Depending on the amount of information requested, Oldmac Toyota may charge an access fee to cover the cost of retrieving the information and supplying it to you.
If you believe that any personal information which we have collected about you is inaccurate, incomplete or not up-to-date, we will take reasonable steps to correct it in accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act. In the event that we correct personal information that we have previously disclosed to a third party, you may request that we notify that third party of the correction. We will take steps as are reasonable in the circumstances to notify that third party of the correction where it is not impractical or unlawful to do so.
Access to personal information may be refused in a number of circumstances, such as where the information relates to anticipated legal proceedings or the request for access is frivolous or vexatious. If we deny or restrict your access, we will explain why. Similarly, in some limited circumstances we may not make requested corrections to personal information, in which case we will provide you with reasons for this decision.
Other circumstances in which access will be denied include:
• we reasonably believe that giving the information would pose a serious threat to the life, health or safety of an individual or to public health and safety;
• providing access would create an unreasonable impact on the privacy of others;
• access would be unlawful;
• denial of access is authorised or required by law;
• access would prejudice enforcement related activities of an enforcement body;
• access would reveal evaluative information of “a commercially sensitive”, decision making process, or information; or
• any other reason that is provided for in the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) set out under the Privacy Act.
Where possible, we will favour providing you with access to your personal information.
Job applicants and employees
Any personal information provided to Oldmac Toyota in connection with job applications may be used to consider the applicant for current and future employment and may be disclosed to our third party advisors to assist us in the selection and recruitment process.
If your application for employment is successful, Oldmac Toyota will rely on the exemption in the Privacy Act relating to employee records where applicable.
Credit Related Information
Where we provide services to you on credit (that is, where you will pay for those services after we start providing them to you), we may be a credit provider for the purposes of the Privacy Act.
We may collect, hold and use certain credit related information about you. We will generally only obtain this information from you. We do not collect or exchange information with credit reporting bodies and other credit providers.

We may disclose your credit related information to parties that provide credit related services to us such as debt collectors, credit management agencies, advisers and our agents. We may also disclose your credit related information to a third party that you or we request act as a guarantor in relation to any credit provided to you. Other circumstances where we may disclose your credit related information include using and disclosing credit related information that we hold about you in relation to any access or correction requests that you make to us, any complaint that you make, as required by law or the order of a court or tribunal and where you otherwise expressly consent to the use or disclosure.
How you can access and/or amend your credit related information
You may request access to any credit related information that we hold about you in accordance with this Privacy Policy and we will respond to the request within 10 days of the request being made.
If you request that we correct any credit related information that we hold about you, we will endeavour to respond to that request within 21 days (or such longer period as you may agree) and correct any credit related information that we hold about you that we are satisfied is inaccurate, out-of-date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading.
If we correct credit related information that we hold about you without you first making a correction request, we will take reasonable steps to notify that correction to you.
You may complain about any failure by us to comply with Part IIIA of the Privacy Act or the Credit Reporting Code. If your complaint relates to our failure to provide access to or to correct any credit related information that we hold about you, you may lodge a complaint directly with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.
