This Web Privacy Statement outlines how ACL deals with personal information related to our website. Users of our website are entitled to expect that any information collected will be treated within the terms of the Australian privacy responsibilities and obligations.

When you look at ACL’s website, our computers record your visit and log the following information for statistical purposes:
Some sections of ACL’s website use standard industry technologies, for example 'cookies', to do this.
The anonymous information collected during each visit is collated for analysis. It is then evaluated and published in reports that show ACL’s usage patterns and identify popular areas of the website. This helps us to improve and develop the website and its services.
For security reasons, ACL uses software programs to monitor network traffic and identify unauthorised attempts to upload or change information, or otherwise cause damage.
No attempt will be made to identify individual users or their browsing activities except for when, in the unlikely event of an investigation, a law enforcement agency may exercise a warrant to inspect ACL logs.
Apart from an occasion when it may be required to do so by law, ACL will not disclose your personal information to a third party, other than a contractor responsible for statistical analysis or web development, and then for those purposes only, unless you have authorised it to do so.
ACL will gather more extensive information than stated above in the following circumstances:
ACL reserves the right to make disclosures to relevant authorities where the use of our website raises concern that an offence is being, or has been, committed.
