Privacy Policy Statement

This Privacy Policy applies to Clinpsych Psychology Services Pty Ltd trading as Human Psychology and Future Thinc (Clinpsych), a subsidiary of APM Human Services International Limited (APM).

Clinpsych’s collection, use, disclosure and storage of your personal information is regulated by the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), the Australian Privacy Principles and related legislation.

Updates to this Privacy Policy will be published on our website.

If you have any questions regarding this Policy or our privacy practices generally, please do not hesitate to contact our Privacy Officer at privacy@humanpsychology.com.au.

 

Purpose

The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to:

  • Give you an understanding of the kinds of personal information that we collect and hold.

What is personal information?

Personal information means information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable, whether the information or opinion is true or not, and whether the information or opinion is recorded in a material form or not. It includes your name, date of birth / age, gender and contact details as well as health information (which is also sensitive information). In this privacy policy, a reference to personal information includes sensitive / health information

 

Collection of personal information

Personal information collected by us will usually fall into one of the following categories:

  • Contact information (name, age, address, email address and telephone numbers).
  • Employment information (e.g. employment history, work performance, absences, workplace incidents, next of kin information).
  • Financial information (e.g. bank account details).
  • Sensitive information (e.g. information about your health, medical history, criminal history, religious beliefs, trade union activity).

  • you contact us by any method, such as face-to-face, over the telephone, through an online form or portal, through a paper form or by email; or
  • you submit information via our website or Wellbeing Gateway app or browser.

 

Sometimes we will collect personal information from a third party or a publicly available source, for example where we have your consent, where we are required by law to do so, or if it is unreasonable or impracticable to collect the personal information directly from you.

 

You may choose to deal with us anonymously or under a pseudonym. However, in some circumstances, anonymity or the use of a pseudonym may render us unable to provide the relevant service or reasonably conduct our business, and we may request that you identify yourself.

You may also choose not to provide us with your personal information. Depending on the circumstances in which you do so, however, we may be unable to provide you with our services as a result

 

Where we are collecting personal information from a child or young person, we will use our judgement to determine if that person has the capacity to consent. Where we are unsure, we will seek consent from a parent or guardian.

 

Why do we collect, use and store your personal information?
  • We collect, use and store your personal information to provide you with our services which include:
    • Psychological Assessments / Counselling.
    • Employee Assistance Programs.

    • Executive and Manager Assist Coaching.
    • Critical Incident Management.

Our services, functions and activities, as well as those of our contracted service providers, may change from time to time.

 

Protecting and storing your personal information

We understand the importance of keeping personal information secure and safe. Some of the ways we do this are:

  • Requiring employees and contractors to enter into confidentiality agreements;
  • Securing hard copy document storage (i.e. storing hard copy documents in locked filing cabinets);
  • Implementing security measures for access to computer systems to protect information from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure and loss, misuse and interference;
  • Ensuring data storage devices such as laptops, tablets and smart phones are password protected;
  • Providing discreet environments for confidential discussions;
  • Implementing access control for our buildings including waiting room / reception protocols and measures for securing the premises when unattended; and
  • Implementing security measures for our website(s).

 

Personal information may be stored in documentary form but will generally be stored electronically on our software or systems.

 

Who will we disclose your personal information to?

Like most businesses in Australia, we contract out some of our functions and rely on third party suppliers or contractors to help us conduct our business, for example to provide specialised services such as employment services, “cloud computing” technology and data storage services, data analytic and marketing services, legal advice, insurance broking, security services, business advisors and financial services. We may disclose personal information to these third parties in connection with their provision of goods or services to us.

We may also disclose your personal information to other related entities within our corporate group for our own business purposes.

We may disclose your personal information to government agencies, private sector organisations or other entities where required or permitted by law, which may include the following circumstances:

  • You have consented to such disclosure.
  • We believe that you would reasonably expect, or havebeen told, that information of that kind is usually passed to those individuals, bodies or agencies, and it is being disclosed for a purpose related (or directly related, in the case of sensitive information) to the reason we collected the information.
  • We are required or authorised to make such disclosure by law or the requirements of any professional bodies e.g. Australian Psychological Society or other relevant guidelines relating to managing risk of harm to self or others, and where we are required to do so in accordance with child safety / vulnerable persons obligations.
  • A permitted general situation or permitted health situation (as these terms are defined in the Privacy Act) exists in relation to the disclosure.
  • We believe it is reasonably necessary for enforcement related activities conducted by, or on behalf of, an enforcement body (e.g. police, ASIC, Immigration Department).

 

The persons to whom we disclose personal information are normally located in Australia, although personal information related to our staff and for our marketing activities may be disclosed to recipients outside Australia, including to recipients located in countries where APM has offices.  We may also use data hosting and cloud based service providers whose operations are located overseas.  In all instances where this occurs, we will act in accordance with the Privacy Act, this Privacy Policy and any requirements we have agreed to under our customer contracts.

We provide periodic reports to the organisations that have contracted us to provide services. There is no identifiable personal information contained within these reports, and all data sets are carefully examined and edited as appropriate to ensure that, where relevant for that service, your confidential access and privacy of our service is maintained.

We will not disclose any personal information to your employer arising from counselling sessions or EAP support unless required by law or we have your express consent.

 

Accuracy of Personal Information

We take steps to help ensure that all personal information we collect, use or disclose is accurate, complete and up to date. Please contact our Privacy Officer (details below) if you are aware that personal information that we hold about you does not meet this objective.

 

How can I access my personal information and contact Clinpsych?

You can request access to personal information that we hold about you.

The procedure for requesting and obtaining access is as follows:

  • All requests for access to personal information to be made in writing and addressed to our Privacy Officer (see contact details below). All requests should specify how the information is proposed to be accessed (photocopies, electronic copy, or visual sighting).

  • We will endeavour to acknowledge your request within 14 days of the request being made.
  • Access will usually be granted within 30 days of our acknowledgment. If the request cannot be processed within that time for whatever reason, we will let you know the anticipated timeframe for a response to be provided.
  • You will need to verify your identity and authority before access to personal information is granted.
  • We may charge a reasonable fee for access to personal information, which will be notified and required to be paid prior to the release of any information. Once the request has been processed by us, you will be notified of our response and proposal for suitable access (provision of photocopies, digital copies or visual sighting, where appropriate).
  • We may refuse to grant access to personal information if there is an exception to such disclosure which applies under relevant privacy legislation.
  • If, as a result of access being granted, you are aware that we hold personal information that you regard as being no longer accurate or correct, you may request the deletion or correction of such information.
  • Upon receipt of a request to correct or delete personal information, we will either make such corrections or deletions or provide written reasons as to why we declined to make such alterations.

  • Requests for access to personal information.
