Privacy Policy
One Bau Group is committed to providing quality services to you, and this policy outlines our ongoing obligations to you in respect of how we manage your Personal Information.
We have adopted the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (the Privacy Act). These principles govern how we collect, use, disclose, store, secure, and dispose of your Personal Information. A copy of the Australian Privacy Principles may be obtained from the website of the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner at www.oaic.gov.au.
What is Personal Information and why do we collect it?
Personal Information is information or an opinion that identifies an individual. Examples of Personal Information we collect include names, addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers.
This Personal Information is obtained in various ways including interviews, correspondence, telephone calls, email, via our website www.onebaugroup.com.au, from media and publications, publicly available sources, cookies, and third parties. We do not guarantee the policies or practices of any authorised third parties.
We collect your Personal Information for the primary purpose of providing our services to you, communicating with you, and marketing. We may also use your Personal Information for secondary purposes closely related to the primary purpose, where you would reasonably expect such use or disclosure.
You may unsubscribe from our mailing or marketing lists at any time by contacting us in writing.
Where appropriate, we will explain why we are collecting Personal Information and how we plan to use it at the time it is collected.

It is required or authorised by law.

Security of Personal Information
Your Personal Information is stored in a manner that reasonably protects it from misuse, loss, and unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure.
