Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Aussie English collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Aussie English's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Aussie English's visitors use its website. From time to time, Aussie English may release non-personally identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Aussie English also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged-in users and for users leaving comments on TheAussieEnglishClassroom.com blogs/sites. Aussie English only discloses logged-in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site where the comment was left.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Aussie English's websites choose to interact with Aussie English in ways that require Aussie English to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Aussie English gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up at TheAussieEnglishClassroom.com to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Aussie English are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Aussie English collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with Aussie English. Aussie English does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

Aussie English may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. Aussie English may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Aussie English does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Aussie English discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Aussie English's behalf or to provide services available at Aussie English's websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Aussie English's websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Aussie English will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Aussie English discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Aussie English believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Aussie English, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Aussie English website and have supplied your email address, Aussie English may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with Aussie English and our products. If you send us a request (for example via email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Aussie English takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
