We have adopted the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (the Privacy Act). The NPPs govern the way in which we collect, use, disclose, store, secure and dispose of your personal information.

Scope Of This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy covers the "personal information" we collect through our site. "personal information" is information that identifies you personally, either alone or in combination with other information available to us. Examples of personal information include your name, address, email address, and other information you provide when you use our website or mobile application (app).
This personal information is obtained in many ways including correspondence, by telephone and facsimile, by email, via our website www.cropsmart.com.au, via our app, from your website and from other publicly available sources and from third parties. We don’t guarantee website links or policies of authorised third parties. As is true of most websites and mobile apps, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information may include internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We use this information to analyse trends, to administer our website, to track visitors’ and users’ movements around the website and to gather non-identifiable, demographic information about our user base as a whole. We may link this automatically collected data to Personal Information provided by visitors and users so that we can better gauge our visitors’ and users’ needs and provide specific information to best serve them, and to the extent that this automatically collected data includes, or is linked to, personal information, we will treat the data in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We collect your personal information for the primary purpose of providing our services to you, providing information to our clients and marketing. We may also use your personal information for secondary purposes closely related to the primary purpose, in circumstances where you would reasonably expect such use or disclosure. You may unsubscribe from our mailing/marketing lists at any time by contacting us in writing.
When we collect personal information we will, where appropriate and where possible, explain to you why we are collecting the information and how we plan to use it.
