If not, it should destroy or deidentify it. \n\n**APP 5 — Notification of the Collection of Personal Information**\n\nWhen collecting personal information, organisations must tell you what they’re collecting, why, how it will be used, and other relevant details. \n\n**APP 6 — Use or Disclosure of Personal Information**\n\nPersonal information can only be used or shared for the purpose it was collected unless an exception applies. \n\n**APP 7 — Direct Marketing**\n\nOrganisations can use or share personal information for marketing only if certain conditions are met, and individuals must be allowed to opt out. \n\n**APP 8 — Cross****border Disclosure of Personal Information**\n\nBefore sending personal information overseas, organisations must take steps to make sure it will be protected. \n\n**APP 9 — Adoption, Use or Disclosure of Government****related Identifiers**\n\nOrganisations generally can’t use government identifiers (like Medicare or tax file numbers) as their own identifiers except in limited circumstances. \n\n**APP 10 — Quality of Personal Information**\n\nOrganisations must ensure any personal information they collect, use, or disclose is accurate, up to date, complete, and relevant. \n\n**APP 11 — Security of Personal Information**\n\nOrganisations must protect personal information from misuse, loss, or unauthorised access, and destroy or deidentify it when it’s no longer needed. \n\n**APP 12 — Access to Personal Information**\n\nYou have the right to access your personal information, and organisations must provide access unless a specific exception applies. \n\n**APP 13 — Correction of Personal Information**\n\nIf your personal information is incorrect, organisations must take reasonable steps to fix it\n\n \n\n**Appendix** **2** **-** **Technical Information**\n\n**Logging Practices**\n\nWhen you use the ChangeFest website, we automatically collect your **IP address**.\nAn IP address is a unique number assigned to your device when it connects to the internet. Most internet connections use a “dynamic” IP address, which means the number changes regularly. However, some broadband connections use a “static” IP address that stays the same. In those cases, the IP address may be linked to your specific device and could be considered personal information.\n\nWe also collect information about:\n\n• The website you visited just before coming to the ChangeFest site\n\n• The search terms you used to find us\n\n• Which pages you visit on our site and how long you spend on them\n\n• Your searches on our website (these remain anonymous and confidential)\n\nWe use this information only to understand what content is most useful to visitors and to help improve the website.\n\nIn addition, we may collect certain technical details your device sends automatically as part of standard website traffic analysis, such as:\n\n• Your browser or device type and version\n\n• Your operating system\n\n• The date and time you accessed the website\n\n• How much data was transferred\n\n \n\n**External Links**\n\nOur website contains links to external sites created and maintained by other organisations. These links are provided for your convenience.\n\nWhen you click one of these links, you leave the ChangeFest website. This means our privacy policy no longer applies. We strongly recommend reading the privacy policy of any external site before sharing your personal information.\n\n \n\n**Cookies and Web Beacons**\n\nOur website uses **cookies** and **web beacons** (small files or tags placed on your device) to help us understand how people use our website over time.\n\nWe use:\n\n• **Session cookies** — active only while your browser is open\n\n• **Persistent cookies** — remain on your device and recognise you when you return\n\n• **Web beacons** – only used if you have signed up for a marketing and open them \n\nThese tools help us:\n\n• Identify returning visitors\n\n• Make the website easier for you to use\n\n• Understand how people navigate the site\n\n• Balance traffic across our servers\n\nWe may also use **tracking cookies**, **third****party cookies**, and similar technologies to support features like social media sharing or to understand how you engage with our emails. \n\n**Do Not Track (DNT)**\n\nSome browsers allow you to send a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal to websites to request that your browsing is not tracked.
