Privacy Policy - Coast to Country Hearing Solutions

Our Commitment to Your Privacy 

Coast to Country Hearing Solutions values your privacy and is dedicated to ensuring that your Personal Information is managed transparently and securely. This policy outlines how we handle the Personal Information we collect and maintain, in line with the Commonwealth Privacy Act 1988 (including amendments) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).

The APPs guide how we gather, utilize, share, store, and protect your Personal Information. They also provide you with rights to access and correct your Personal Information in certain situations.


Who Should Read This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to you if you are:

  • Accessing or receiving our hearing-related services;
  • A person whose Personal Information is collected or stored by us;
  • A contractor, consultant, supplier, or vendor working with us; or
  • Applying for employment with Coast to Country Hearing Solutions.

What Information We Collect

Due to the nature of our services, we routinely collect various types of Personal Information. This may include:

  • Personal Details: Your name, address, date of birth, phone numbers (landline and mobile), email addresses, gender, Pensioner numbers, Department of Veterans’ Affairs numbers, and financial details.
  • Sensitive Information: Health information related to your hearing, health history, and identifiers related to cultural and linguistic backgrounds, which help us provide tailored services.

For the purposes of this policy, Personal Information encompasses both standard Personal Information and Sensitive Information.


Why We Collect Your Personal Information

We collect your Personal Information primarily to understand your hearing needs and to deliver our services effectively. This information allows us to provide high-quality hearing services and manage other activities such as marketing, research, and service development.

If you choose not to provide certain Personal Information, we may not be able to deliver our services to the expected standard.

  • The purposes for which the information is being collected.
  • The consequences (if any) for you if we do not collect the information.

  • Third-party suppliers (e.g., hearing aid manufacturers);
  • Government agencies (e.g., Department of Health, Services Australia);
  • Healthcare professionals, legal advisors, or family members (if authorized).

If your Personal Information may be shared with overseas entities, we will provide you with details of those entities and the countries in which they are located, if practicable, and seek your consent when required.


How We Protect and Store Your Information

We prioritize the security and confidentiality of your Personal Information. It is stored in electronic formats, and we implement various measures to protect it from unauthorized access, misuse, or loss. These measures include:

  • Securely storing digital records in line with Australian standards;
