This Privacy Policy describes how we will comply with our obligations under the Privacy Act 1988, including the Australian Privacy Principles.
This Privacy Policy describes the purposes for which we may collect, store, use and disclose your personal information. It generally applies whenever we receive personal information from you (directly or indirectly) when you use our products or services or when we do business with you.
COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Personal information is generally defined as information or an opinion that can identify a person. This information could include information such as your name, postal or email address, date of birth, image and financial details.
The type of personal information that we may collect from you will depend on the dealings you may have with us.
If it is reasonable or practical to do so, we collect your personal information from you directly when you enter into arrangements with us. Depending on the purposes for which we collect your personal information, in some instances we may collect your personal information from third parties.
We also have obligations to collect personal information under anti-money laundering and counter terrorism financing legislation and maintain records for the Queensland Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation.
USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
The general purposes for which we may collect and hold your personal information (and share that information with related companies) are:
- identify you;
- to manage and administer a contract with you on an ongoing basis;
- to promote safety and security on our site;
- to provide you with regular updates of the status of the Queen’s Wharf Brisbane project;
- to comply with any obligations that we may have under laws that apply to our business or to meet reasonable requests from regulatory bodies which regulate our business.
Destination Brisbane Consortium may use the information we collect about you to keep you informed about the project and to enable third parties with whom we have a relationship to engage with you regarding the project.
Information about the way and frequency with which you use our services may also be used by us for the purposes of quality control and to develop and improve the communication and engagement we are able to offer to you regarding the project.
If you elect not to provide personal information to us, we may not be able to provide you with some or all of the services you wish to obtain or that we would otherwise provide.
DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We may disclose your personal information where we are required or authorised to do so by or under law or where the disclosure is reasonably necessary to enforce the law or for enforcement related activities conducted by, or on behalf of, an enforcement body.
This may occur under the laws that apply to our business, for example, where a regulatory authority requests information from us. This includes obligations that we have under the following acts and associated legislative instruments:
- Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (Cth),
- The Casino Control Act 1982 (Qld)
and in connection with our obligations relating to the development of an integrated resort. We may also disclose personal information where required or authorised by law to or, to meet a reasonable request from, a range of regulatory and other bodies, including the Australian Taxation Office, Australian Securities and Investments Commission, Centrelink, Child Support Agency and the Australian Financial Security Authority.

SHARING INFORMATION WITH OTHER ORGANISATIONS
We will not sell your personal information to organisations outside Destination Brisbane Consortium.
We will generally only give another organisation access to your personal information when the other organisation is providing services to us that help us to operate our business or to provide a service to you.
We require these organisations to agree to our Privacy Policy, meet strict conditions on the use of personal information, and to comply with the Australian Privacy Principles in the use, storage and disclosure of your personal information.

We may also share your personal information with an organisation where we have obtained your consent.
MARKETING
