Privacy Policy
Environmental Monitoring Solutions Pty Ltd (EMS) is concerned with the protection of your privacy. We comply with the Privacy Amendment (Enhancing Privacy Protection) Act 2012, in the way we handle personal information.
This policy explains how we handle personal information relating to individuals on our website, support, training and industry databases and the distribution of digital content to the same individuals. It deals with the collection, use and disclosure of personal information, as well as access to personal information and security issues. Nothing in this policy limits, contracts-out or diminishes any of our other obligations at law.
By using the website, you are consenting to this policy and to the collection, use and disclosure by EMS of your personal information as outlined in this policy.
Collection and use of your personal information
EMS automatically collects personal contact information if you provide it, information about your visit, including the pages you view, the links you click and other actions taken in connection with our websites, support, training and services. We also collect certain standard information your browser sends to every site you visit, such as your IP address, browser type and language, documents downloaded, access times and referring website addresses.
This information is used for internal reporting and website usage analysis. We use this non-identifying and aggregate information to better serve you and facilitate your use of our web site.
We collect the information through the use of various technologies, including one called “cookies”. A cookie is a piece of data that a site can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your computer as an anonymous tag that identifies your computer, but not you. Some EMS website pages use cookies or other technologies to better serve you when you return to the website. You can set your browser to notify you before you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it. You can also set your browser to turn off cookies. If you do so, however, some pages of the website may not work properly.
There are instances where we may acquire personal information from you through various registration forms, business cards or email messages to us. This may include, but is not limited to, your name, title, company, address, phone number, and e-mail address. You will be informed at each instance what information is required and what information is optional.
EMS uses the data collected from registration forms and e-mails to respond to your requests for information and to provide you with requested products or services. You will only receive information from EMS if you have indicated a desire to receive. We will provide you with the opportunity to opt-out to receiving such information.
Disclosure of your personal information
EMS will not publically disclose your personal information without your consent. However, in providing our products and services, or collecting and using your personal information, we reserve the right to disclose some of your personal information to our affiliates and third party organisations, including service providers who assist us in providing our products and services or maintaining the website. EMS takes reasonable steps to ensure that these organisations are bound by confidentiality and privacy obligations in relation to the protection of your personal information.
EMS will otherwise only release your personal information to third parties if such disclosure is required by law or is necessary to protect EMS’s rights or property. Personal information may be subject to disclosure pursuant to judicial or other government subpoenas, warrants, or orders.

This website may contain links to other websites. EMS is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of those other websites.
Security of personal information
We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information we hold from misuse, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. EMS does not accept any liability for inadvertent or unauthorised disclosures.
Access and correction
You have a right to access your personal information that we hold, with some exceptions as allowed by law. To obtain a copy of your personal information, write to our Head Office at the address below requesting the information and we will provide it to you. We reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee for the provision of this information.
EMS takes reasonable steps to make sure that the personal information we collect, use or disclose is accurate, complete and up-to-date. However, the accuracy of that information depends to a large extent on the information you provide. We recommend that you let us know if there are any errors in your personal information and keep us up-to-date with changes to your information.
If you are able to establish that the personal information we hold is not accurate, complete and up-to-date, we will take reasonable steps to correct the information so that it is accurate, complete and up-to-date.
