identify you, to improve our products or to provide services or technologies to
you.
We will not use or disclose personal information about you for a purpose (the

the individual would reasonably expect
northerntaxis.com.au to use or disclose the information
for the secondary purpose; or
-
the individual has consented to the use or disclosure; or
-
if the information is not sensitive information and the use of the information is for
the secondary purpose of direct marketing:
-
it is impractical for northerntaxis.com.au to seek the
individual’s consent before that particular use; and
-
northerntaxis.com.au will not charge the individual for
giving effect to a request by the individual to
northerntaxis.com.au not to receive direct marketing
communications; and
-
the individual has not made a request to

communications; and
-
in each direct marketing communication with the individual,
northerntaxis.com.au draws to the individual’s attention,
or prominently displays a notice, that he or she may express a wish not to
receive any further direct marketing communications; and
-
each written direct marketing communication by
northerntaxis.com.au with the individual (up to and
including the communication that involves the use) sets out
northerntaxis.com.au’s business address and telephone
number and, if the communication with the individual is made by fax, telex or
other electronic means, a number or address which
northerntaxis.com.au can be directly contacted
electronically.
The above operates in relation to personal information that
northerntaxis.com.au has collected from a related body
corporate as if northerntaxis.com.au’s primary purpose
of collection of the information were the primary purpose for which the related
body corporate collected the information.
