MessageXchange ABN 73 076 521 161 (“MessageXchange, eVision, we, or us”) is committed to respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy sets out how we collect, use, disclose and store your personal information.

We handle personal information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

By using the services available from our website www.messagexchange.com (“the Website”), or which we otherwise provide to you under the name “MessageXchange”, you consent to our collection, use and disclosure of your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy, the Terms of Use, and any other arrangements that apply between us.

We may change our Privacy Policy from time to time by publishing changes to it on the Website. We encourage you to check our Website periodically to ensure that you are aware of our current Privacy Policy.

What personal information do we collect?

Personal information includes information or an opinion about an individual that is reasonably identifiable. The information that we collect will depend on the specific Services that we are providing to you.

In general, though, we collect the following types of personal information:

  • your name;
  • information we need to contact you, such as your telephone number, mailing address, or email address;
  • the name of your company and your position;
  • your device ID, device-type, computer and connection information, statistics on page views, traffic to and from our site, ad data, IP address and standard web log information;
  • details of the Services that we have provided to you or that you have enquired about, including any additional information necessary to deliver the Services and respond to your enquiries;
  • any other information relating to you that you provide to us directly, including information provided through the Services or customer surveys; and
  • any other personal information that may be required in order to facilitate your dealings with us.

How do we collect personal information?

We may collect personal information when you:

  • register to use the Services;
  • contact our support team; or
  • interact with or use the Services (for instance, when you upload content to the Services).

We will only ask for your personal information from you directly. If you provide personal information to us about another person (for instance, personal information contained in content that you upload to the Website using the Services), you must ensure that:

  • the person to whom the personal information relates has authorised you to provide that personal information to us; and
  • you have informed that person about the contents of this Privacy Policy.

You can choose to deal with us anonymously or using a pseudonym, but it may mean that we are unable to provide the Services.

Why do we collect, use and disclose personal information?

We may collect, hold, use and disclose your personal information for the following purposes:

  • to enable you to access and use the Services;
  • to respond to your queries (for instance, to verify your identity when you contact us for support);
  • to send you support and administrative messages, reminders, technical notices, updates, security alerts, and other information that you request;
  • to send you marketing and promotional information or other information that may be of interest to you, such as information about an event, special offer or services offered by our business partners;
  • to understand your preferences, such as your language preferences;
  • to update and maintain the quality of the personal information that we have collected; and
  • to comply with our legal obligations, resolve any disputes that we may have with any of our users, and enforce our agreements with third parties.

We only keep your personal information for as long as it is required for the purposes above. Under some circumstances, we may be required to keep some of your personal information for a specified period of time as required by law, including legal obligations relating to corporations, money laundering, and financial reporting legislation.

To whom do we disclose your personal information?

We may disclose personal information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy to:

  • our employees and related bodies corporate;
  • third party suppliers and service providers (including providers for the operation of the Services or in connection with providing the Services to you);
  • professional advisers, dealers and agents;
  • our existing or potential agents, business partners or partners;
  • our sponsors or promoters of any competition that we conduct via our services;
  • anyone to whom our assets or businesses (or any part of them) are transferred;
  • specific third parties authorised by you to receive information held by us; and/or
  • other persons, including government agencies, regulatory bodies and law enforcement agencies, or as required, authorised or permitted by law.

Security of your personal information

We hold your personal information in electronic and/ or hard copy form. We engage a third party cloud provider to store your information securely.

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from misuse, interference and loss, as well as unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. We use a number of physical, administrative, personnel and technical measures to protect your personal information. However, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information. In particular, any electronic communications over the internet (including email, information that you provide to us using the Website, or content that you upload to the Services) are vulnerable to interception by third parties.

Website navigational information

MessageXchange uses information collected from cookies and other technologies to improve your user experience and the overall quality and security of our Services. For example, by saving your language preferences, we’ll be able to have our Services appear in the language you prefer. We may record certain information about your use of our Services, such as which pages you visit on our Website, the time and date of your visit and the internet protocol address assigned to your computer. Our automated systems analyse your content to provide you personally relevant product features, such as customized search results and tailored advertising.

MessageXchange also uses third party service providers (such as Google reCAPTCHA) to help us operate our Website. Third party providers may collect information about your device, such as the type of device and its operating system, your IP address, and the actions you take on our site. Where third party providers use cookies, their use of cookies and the collection of data, is governed by their own privacy policy.

We use Google reCAPTCHA to help protect our Website from bot attacks and when you use reCAPTCHA on our Website, certain information is collected and processed by Google in accordance with the reCAPTCHA Terms of Service and its privacy policy. You can view the reCAPTCHA Terms of Service at https://policies.google.com/terms/recaptcha and Google’s privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.

Standing alone, cookies do not personally identify you, they merely recognize your Web browser and its activities. Information we collect when you are signed into the Website may be associated with your MessageXchange’s Account. When information is associated with your MessageXchange’s Account, we treat it as personal information, and it is covered by this Privacy Policy.

You may set your browser to block all cookies. However, it is important to note that certain features of our Website may be limited or not available if some or all of your cookies are disabled. We may not, for example, remember your language preferences if you disable certain types of cookies.

Third-party plug-ins may collect information about your use of the Website. For example, when you load a page on the Website that has a social plug-in from a third-party site or service, such as a “Follow Us” button, you are also loading content from that third-party site. That site may request cookies directly from your browser. These interactions are subject to the privacy policy of the third-party site. In addition, certain cookies and other tracking mechanisms on our Website are used by third parties for targeted online marketing and other purposes. These technologies allow a third party to recognize your computer or mobile device each time you visit the Website, but do not allow access to personal information from your MessageXchange’s Account. We do not have access or control over these third-party technologies, and they are not covered by our Privacy Policy. If you prefer to prevent third parties from setting and accessing cookies on your computer, you may set your browser to block cookies.

We also use Google Analytics and you can find out more about this at “How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps”, (located at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.
