Generally, personal information will be collected directly from you, although information may be obtained from agents or other service providers that collect your information on our behalf.

If reasonable we will advise you upon collection of any personal information from a third-party.

The type of information collected may include (but is not limited to) details about customers, clients, contractors, suppliers, partners, employees, subscribers, job applicants, tenants, those attending exhibitions, client functions, mail outs and internet enquiries.

If you elect not to provide the information requested, chose to not identify yourself, or provide inaccurate information, we may be unable to provide you with our services.
