To enable South Haven to deliver the best possible service to you, its clients, suppliers, service providers, contractors and customers, it is necessary for South Haven to collect personal information (i.e. information that can identify a person) about individuals. The type of personal information that is collected will be determined by nature of the relationship between South Haven and an individual.

At the time personal information is collected, South Haven will take reasonable steps to inform individuals about the purpose for which the information is collected, the customers’ right to access the information and other matters contemplated in the Australian Privacy Principles regulating collection of personal information.

What is Personal Information?
Personal information is information about a person whose identity is apparent from the information, and includes identifiers such as the individuals name, email address, postal address, phone number, gender, social media information and profile, (collectively, “Personal Information”).

How do we collect your Personal Information?
Personal information can be collected by South Haven in a number of ways, including email, via any of our online services or mobile services, in person, by phone or by fax or via video and camera surveillance systems for security purposes.
