Our approach to privacy

Creighton Investigations respects your privacy. We have developed our own privacy principles, which embody the National Privacy Principles in the Privacy Act 1988(Privacy Act).

Collecting your information

We collect personal information when we provide our services to you, or a client requires us to collect information on their behalf. Generally, if appropriate, we will tell you why we are collecting personal information and how we plan to use it, or these things will be obvious when we collect the information.

If you are a client we usually collect personal information such as your business contact details, job title or position and your expertise and interests. We may collect other information in the course of providing investigative services to you or your employer, or to someone else.

Collecting information using this website

We generally only collect personal information from this website when it is provided voluntarily by you - for example, when you fill in an online inquiry form. When you visit this website or download information from it, our Internet Service Provider (ISP) makes a record of you visit and records the following information:

* Your Internet address;
* Your domain name, if applicable; and
* The date and time of you visit to the website.

Our ISP also collects information such as the pages our users access, the documents they download, links from other sites they follow to reach our site, and the type of browser they use.
However, this information is anonymous and is only used for statistical and website developmental purposes.
