We at Show Group Enterprises Pty Ltd recognise the importance of protecting your personal information. This privacy policy explains how Show Group Enterprises Pty Ltd (see ‘About Show Group’ below) protects your privacy and summarises how it collects, uses and discloses personal information about you.
We are bound to comply with the Australian Privacy Principles in Australia’s Privacy Act 1988 (Privacy Act) and other laws which protect your privacy.

We sometimes handle personal information relying on exemptions under these laws (for example in relation to employee records), and this privacy policy may not always apply in those circumstances.
This policy applies to personal information we hold about you in Australia only. Because Show Group Enterprises Pty Ltd operates in many countries, your personal information will also be held in and accessible by Show Group staff located in other countries. For more information about the privacy policies of other members of Show Group Enterprises Pty Ltd, please contact us.
This policy does not apply to our handling of personal information about staff and job applicants. Please contact us if you would like further detail about how we handle that information.
In this policy we also explain how you can contact us if you have a query about any personal information that Show Group Enterprises Pty Ltd may be holding about you. We recommend that you take the time to read this privacy policy and retain it for future reference.
