Your Election Solutions operating under the ABN 17 771 912 578, conducts a Website business which incorporates several Websites and domain names ("associated entities") that link to www.candidate.com.au (the "Website"). A full list of the associated entities can be requested by contacting us via the contact details displayed in the About Us page of the Website. The Website incorporates message boards, forums, email addresses, web pages and sub-domains ("features"). These features enable the public to voice their opinion about local, state and federal government issues and related elections. These features also enable candidates contesting an election to promote their campaign on the Website. When utilising our Website, associated entities and features (the "Group") you (the "user") are doing so conditional upon the user agreeing to be bound by this Privacy Policy. Please accordingly read our Privacy Policy carefully.

By accepting our Terms and Conditions and disclosing personal information to us in order to utilise the Group the user consents that we may;

- Collect, store and process personal information about the user.
- Create a database record about the user.
- Display to the public, in the area the user has specified, information the user has submitted.
- Contact the user regarding information that may be of interest to the user. (Unless the user has stated otherwise).
- Utilise information for training purposes.
- Verify information submitted by the user.

Personal information submitted by the user for administration purposes will not be made available to the public. There is no requirement for the user to divulge personal information when they access the Website or associated entities; however, in order to maintain a civil level of communication and adhere to the Terms and Conditions, this personal information may be required should the user wish to access the features.

Links have been incorporated in order to assist the user to access further useful information. Utilising the links provided is a personal choice. Third party sites operate under their own privacy policies.

Databases we build are designed for the operation of the Group.

Cookies are pieces of information a Website can transfer to an individual's computer hard drive. The information remains on the users computer until the user ends the browser session or closes down the computer. Most internet browsers are preset to accept cookies, but the user can choose if and how a cookie will be accepted by configuring the preferences and options in the browser.
Except for the requirements relating to the Terms and Conditions for the use of the Group we make no attempt to identify the user in any way when the user is in the public section of the Group. If the secure section of the Group is used (for example our online services) we may then use cookies to:
- determine whether the users computer has support for cookies turned on (this allows us to advise that the user needs to enable cookies to use a particular service);
- help identify the user during a secure session;
- time the session so the user will be logged off if the user is not using the service for a specified time period; and
- maintain an audit trail of the secure session

The continued use of the Group by the user indicates that the user acknowledges and agrees to any future changes of our Privacy Policy.

Issues relating to the Privacy Policy can be directed via an email to privacy@candidate.com.au or PO Box 772, Caboolture Qld 4510.
