Huntsman Security is the operating name of Tier-3 Pty Limited, an Australian company and its subsidiary in the United Kingdom, Tier-3 Security Limited.

This policy outlines Huntsman Security’s ongoing obligations regarding management of your personal information. Personal information is information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is directly or indirectly identifiable from that information or opinion, whether the information or opinion is true or not and whether the information or opinion is recorded in a material form or not.

1. Collecting Personal Information

We collect your personal information so that we can carry out our usual business activities related to the development and commercialisation of Huntsman Security’s proprietary software.

The personal information we may collect from you is:

  • business contact information, such as your name, job title, employer name, work email address, work street address and work telephone number;
  • website usage and other technical data such as details of your visits to our websites or information collected through cookies;
  • recruitment related data such as a curriculum vitae, education and employment history (job applicants only); and
  • personal data related to our employment relationship with you (employees only).

Your personal information is normally collected directly from you as follows:

  • via our website if you complete an online form to register for an event, to register to receive informational content or to request information on our products and services; or
  • in person in the sale and provision of our products or services, when engaging with you pursuant to another business relationship or if we meet at an industry or other event, or
  • in person during the job recruitment process or employment relationship.

We may also collect your personal information from a third party, such as a public website or a supplier of lead generation services, or a professional recruiter.

If you complete a form on our website to receive our informational materials, we may ask you questions about your business. Such questions are designed to help us to tailor information to your needs and provide you with useful information about cyber security.

You may unsubscribe from our mailing lists at any time by using the ‘unsubscribe’ option located at the end of each email.

The consequences of not providing your personal information could be varied, depending on your relationship with Huntsman Security. For example, if you wish to register for a Huntsman Security seminar, without your personal information, Huntsman Security will not be able to register your attendance at the seminar. If you do not want to provide Huntsman Security with your personal information, you can contact Huntsman Security’s Privacy Officer to discuss the specific consequences of not doing so.

2. Use of Personal Information

Our use or processing of your personal information may be on the basis of your consent or on the basis that the use or processing is necessary for Huntsman Security’s legitimate business interests, depending on our relationship with you.

If you have specifically opted in to receiving marketing communications from us, our processing of your personal information for marketing purposes is based on that consent.

Otherwise, our processing of your personal information for all purposes, is that it is necessary for:

  • compliance with a legal obligation to which Huntsman Security is subject; or
  • Huntsman Security’s legitimate business interests.

These legitimate interests may be any or all of the following, depending on our relationship with you:

  • to undertake or manage our business relationship with your employer as a potential customer, customer, supplier or business partner;
  • to promote our company and products, and to send cyber security industry relevant informational content;
  • to undertake a recruitment process or to manage the employment relationship;
  • to comply with a legal action or law enforcement directive, or to protect Huntsman Security’s legal rights and/or property; and
  • internal purposes such as accounting, planning, record keeping and reporting.

3. Disclosure to and Processing of Personal Information by Third Parties

Huntsman Security does not disclose your personal information to third parties without your consent other than in the following circumstances:

  • to those we contract directly to provide services to us, for example, the provider of a Customer Relationship Management solution and automated marketing platform, payroll service providers (employees only), the provider of an electronic signing solution and, on occasion, a lead generation service provider;
  • as described in our Cookie Policy;
  • to our business partners or a related company where your interests are better served by them;
  • if legal action or a law enforcement directive requires that we must do so; or
  • it is deemed necessary by us to protect Huntsman Security’s legal rights and/or property.

If your personal information was collected by Huntsman Security in the United Kingdom, your information may be provided to Huntsman Security in Australia for office support functions including marketing and legal functions, record keeping and accounting purposes.

Your personal information may be transferred to an international recipient such as our CRM and marketing platform provider(s).

Huntsman Security will only use third party processors of your personal information where those processors ensure the protection of your rights in accordance with applicable law.

a. Privacy Notice

When we collect your personal information from you or from a third party, we are required to provide you with certain information as required by applicable law (‘Privacy Notice’). We will provide the Privacy Notice free of charge.
