PRIVACY POLICY STATEMENT

This Privacy Policy Statement is prepared in accordance with the National Privacy Principles (‘NPPs ‘) contained within the Commonwealth Privacy Act 1988 (‘Privacy Act’). The NPPs set out minimum standards for the way in which organisations deal with individuals’ personal information. Under the Privacy Act, personal information generally includes information from which an individual’s identity is apparent or is reasonably ascertainable.

Your Privacy is Important to Us
One Pacific Pty Ltd and any companies that are related to them (collectively referred to as ‘we’ or ‘us’) are bound by the NPPs and are committed to the protection of your personal information in accordance with the NPPs. This Privacy Policy Statement (‘Privacy Policy’) explains in general terms how we collect, store, use and disclose your personal information, and sets out your right to request access to information that we hold about you.

This Privacy Policy will apply to any personal information you provide to us when making an enquiry, making a travel, accommodation or activity booking, using our websites www.onepacific.com.au or any other websites operated by us, under any agreement or arrangement that we enter into with you, or otherwise in the course of our dealings with you. This Privacy Policy will also apply to any information that is provided to us by a travel agent or other third party in relation to your travel plans.

We only collect personal information, which is necessary in connection with our business purposes and to provide you with the services you require.

For travellers, the purposes for which we collect personal information include:

  1. To contact you, answer your queries and provide you with information in relation to travel options, accommodation and adventure activities; and
  2. When requested to do so, arrange and book travel, accommodation and adventure activities on your behalf, invoice you for confirmed travel arrangements, and to complete related transactions.

For accommodation owners and activity providers, the purposes for which we collect personal information include:

  1. To market and promote your property and/or the activities and services you provide to travelers; and
  2. To make bookings for travelers at your facilities and to provide travelers with your contact details.

The specific type of personal information collected and used by us varies according to the purpose for collection. However, in general this information includes:

  1. In relation to travelers: your name, addresses, contact details (e.g. telephone number, facsimile number and email address), flight and other travel details, credit card details, billing address, dietary requirements (if any), any health issues that may be relevant to your proposed travel or adventure activity arrangements, and information regarding past transactions or dealings that we have had with you, including information about any special requirements that you may have; and
  2. In relation to peroperty owners and activity providers: your name, address, contact details (e.g. telephone number, facsimile number and email address), and details about your property and/or the activities and services you provide to travelers, including cost and availability.

We collect most of the personal information we require directly from you by way of written forms, by telephone, in person, by our representatives, via our websites, or by written correspondence from time to time. We may also collect personal information about you from third parties, such as from people making travel bookings on your behalf, or from travel agents, booking agents, travel representatives, or homestead owners whom you have contacted regarding travel or accommodation arrangements.
It is important that we collect the information we require about you. Without this information, we may not be able to provide you with our travel and accommodation information and booking services.

Before providing us with personal information about another individual, you must first ensure that the other individual is aware of:

  1. The disclosure of their information to us and the purposes for which the information is collected and used by us; and
  2. The individual’s ability to request access to the personal information that we hold about them, and to advise us if they think the information is inaccurate, incomplete or out-of date.

The information that we collect about you may include some ‘sensitive information’ (e.g. Health information), which is relevant to your travel, and activity plans. Under the Privacy Act, we are required to obtain your consent to the collection and use of any sensitive information. We will assume that you have consented to the collection, use and disclosure by us of any sensitive information, which you provide to us for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, unless you tell us otherwise.

Use and Disclosure of Personal Information
We may use and disclose your personal information for the primary purpose for which the information was collected (see Collection of Personal Information), reasonably expected secondary purposes, where you have consented, and otherwise in accordance with the NPPs, including:

  1. To process and book your travel, accommodation and activity arrangements and to facilitate other transactions in relation to those arrangements (including without limitation disclosing your information to homestead owners, activity providers and other carriers and transport companies who will be providing you with goods or services in relation to your travel plans);
  2. Where required or authorised by law;
  3. Where disclosure is necessary to prevent a threat to life or health, to enforce the law, or to investigate a suspected unlawful activity;
  4. To provide information to agents, contractors and service providers that we engage to provide us with goods and services or to act on our behalf (the identity of which may change from time to time);
  5. To provide you with updates and other information from time to time about travel options, homestead details and availability, adventure activities that can be booked through our offices, the packages that we offer, and other information about the goods, services and activities offered by us or third parties.

We will only transfer personal information outside of Australia in accordance with the NPPs including:

  1. With your consent;
  2. Where we are under a contractual obligation (with you or another party) to do so, or there is some other benefit to the you; or
