Privacy Policy
Grey Matta Solutions (commonly referred to as “GMS”) and its divisions (GMS Business, GMS Human Resources, GMS Recruitment, GMS Digital) are committed to protecting the privacy of the personal information that we collect from you, respecting your rights to privacy and complying with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Privacy Act).
This Privacy Policy details how we comply with our privacy obligations and how we collect and manage the personal information you provide to us. By submitting personal information to us, you agree to our use of your personal information as described herein. Your use of all websites owned or operated by or on behalf of GMS, including those available at or via http://www.greymattasolutions.com (collectively, the “GMS Site”), is subject to this Privacy Policy. You may not use the GMS Site if you do not agree to this policy.
1. What is your personal information?
When used in this policy, the term “personal information” has the meaning given to it in the Privacy Act. Personal information includes information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable from the information or opinion. In summary, personal information is any information about you that can be linked to you.

Sensitive information is a specific category of personal information. Such information includes membership of a profession or trade association or of a trade union, health information, criminal record and the like. We may need to collect, hold and disclose sensitive information about you in relation to the specific requirements of your placement with our clients or direct engagement by us or to provide you with services. If we do, we will get your specific consent to the collection and use of this information.
We may collect some information that is not personal information because it is not linked to you or any other identifiable person. This may include aggregated information about how users use the GMS Site, anonymous answers to surveys and other information that is not linked to your identity.
3. How do we collect and hold your personal information?

We may also collect personal information from third parties including:

9. How can I access, change, and/or delete information?
You may request access to any personal information we hold about you at any time by contacting us. Where we hold information that you are entitled to access, we will try to provide you with a suitable means of accessing it (for example, by emailing it to you). We will not charge for making the request or for making any corrections to your personal information. To do so, please contact your GMS representative or our Privacy Officer by the means set out in paragraph 12. We will then contact you to request sufficient information to allow us to confirm your identity. As soon as practicable after your request is received, we will give you access to your personal information.
There may be times when we cannot grant you access to the personal information we hold. For example, if access would interfere with the privacy of others or if it would result in a breach of confidentiality or law, we will not be required to grant you access. We will let you know if this is the case.
If you believe that the personal information we hold about you is incorrect, incomplete or inaccurate, you may request us to amend it by contacting our Privacy Officer. We will consider if the information requires amendment. If we do not agree that there are grounds for amendment then we will add a note to the personal information stating that you disagree with it. You may also have your personal information deleted. You should be aware that we are required by law to retain certain personal information (such as payroll records); such information will not be deleted. We will let you know if we cannot delete your personal information for legal or other reasons.
Of course, if your personal information has been deleted and you wish to apply for another position through us, you will need to repeat the application process.
10. Security
We take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is protected from misuse, loss and from unauthorized access, modification or disclosure. We may hold your information in either or both electronic or hard copy form.  Only authorized personnel will be provided with access to personal information. These parties are required to treat this information as confidential and deal with it in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Personal information is destroyed or de-identified when no longer needed.
If any personal information has been lost or subjected to unauthorised access, use, modification, disclosure or other misuse (Data Breach), GMS will take all necessary steps to immediately contain the Data Breach, rectify the Data Breach and prevent the Data Breach from occurring in the future.  Where the Data Breach is deemed eligible and likely to result in serious harm, GMS will take reasonable steps to notify you and provide you with relevant information in relation to the Data Breach.
As the GMS Site is linked to the internet and the internet is inherently insecure, we cannot provide any assurance regarding the security of transmission of information you communicate to us online. We cannot guarantee that the information you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted over the internet. Accordingly, any information which you transmit to us online is transmitted at your own risk.
