Protecting Your Privacy!
Dinner
at Eight is committed to protecting your privacy.
We abide by the principles outlined in the Commonwealth
Privacy Act of 1988 concerning the protection of your
personal information. For clients to use our services
we have to collect a certain amount of personal information
about them. This information is only used to manage
our business relationship with the client and to meet
the provisions of the various laws and regulations
that apply to our business.
Dinner at Eight does not exchange, trade, rent
or sell any member’s personal information
with or to any third parties. We only provide a
member’s contact phone number to another member
with the express permission of that member. We do
not supply a member’s details to the restaurants
we use.
While Dinner at Eight makes all reasonable efforts
to ensure that each member’s personal information
is accurate, complete and up-to-date this information
is only as accurate as the information a member
provides to us. We impress upon each member the
importance of keeping us informed of any changes
to their personal information so that our records
are up-to-date.
As part of their conditions of employment all Dinner
at Eight staff must sign confidentiality agreements
that prevent them from divulging member’s
personal information to any third parties or contacting
member’s outside the day-to-day running of
the business.
We will be happy to answer any questions you may
have concerning privacy and the protection of your
personal information.
