Personal Information Collected and Processing Purposes

The scenarios where Salvagnini Australia collects personal information, as well as the types of personal information collected, purposes of processing, and retention periods, are largely consistent with those of Salvagnini Italia S.p.A. Please refer to “Types of Data Collected” and “Data Processing Activities Purposes” in the Global Privacy Policy for further information.

As of the date of this Annex, Salvagnini Australia does not collect or process any categories of sensitive information.

Under APP 3.2 of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), the collection of non-sensitive personal information does not require the consent of the individual; it is lawful provided it is reasonably necessary for one or more of Salvagnini Australia’s functions or activities. Accordingly, personal information collected via the Contact Us, Resources and Products forms for the purpose of responding to enquiries and sending requested materials does not require consent.

Where Salvagnini Australia uses personal information for direct marketing purposes (i.e., sending promotional communications about products and services), individuals are given the opportunity to provide express consent via a separate opt-in checkbox at the point of collection. This is consistent with APP 7 of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the requirements of the Spam Act 2003 (Cth) in relation to commercial electronic messages. You may withdraw consent at any time by clicking the “Unsubscribe” link in any email received from us.

 Moreover, Salvagnini Australia also automatically collects navigation data (including IP addresses, browser type, URI addresses and related technical data) and uses cookies and similar technologies when any user browses the Australian website. The types of data collected and the purposes are the same as described in the “Navigation data” and “Cookie” sections of the Global Privacy Policy. For Cookie details please also refer to the Cookie Policy. Under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), navigation data and cookie data constitute “personal information” only where they can identify or reasonably identify an individual (s.6(1)). Where such data is aggregated or de-identified for statistical purposes, it no longer constitutes personal information and the APPs do not apply to its further use or retention.
 

Disclosure and Provision to Third Parties and Outsourcing of Business

As of the date of this Annex, Salvagnini Australia does not provide personal information to any unrelated third parties within Australia for the purposes of those third parties’ own business.

Where Salvagnini Australia engages third-party service providers to process personal information on its behalf, it takes reasonable contractual steps to ensure those providers do not use or disclose the personal information in a manner inconsistent with the APPs. Salvagnini Australia remains accountable for the handling of personal information by such providers.
 

Cross-border Data Transfer

Salvagnini Australia may share data with its overseas affiliate for the purpose of global cooperation. Details on Cross-border Data Transfer are as shown in the following table.

Basis for cross-border disclosure Salvagnini Australia reasonably believes that Salvagnini Italia S.p.A., as an entity within the European Union subject to the GDPR, is subject to a law that provides a level of protection for personal information that is, overall, substantially similar to the protection provided by the APPs. Intra-group contractual arrangements further support Salvagnini Australia in taking reasonable steps, in accordance with APP 8.1, to ensure that Salvagnini Italia S.p.A. does not breach the APPs in relation to the disclosed information. Salvagnini Australia acknowledges that if the overseas recipient breaches the APPs, Salvagnini Australia will be taken to have breached the APPs itself (section 16C of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth)).
