Privacy Collection Statement - Events

BDO collects personal information from you in order to confirm your registration to attend an event or presentation delivered by BDO or its partners. This information may be collected by any number of means, including you submitting your event registration via our website, sending us an email or via a request made over a phone call.

If BDO does not collect this personal information for such purposes, then BDO will be unable to process your request to attend an event or presentation, and be unable to send you direct marketing communications (unless you have otherwise consented to receive those communications). You may unsubscribe from receiving such communications at any time - please refer to BDO’s Opt-Out Information for more details.

When you submit an event registration request it is not feasible for BDO to deal with you using a pseudonym or for you to keep your identity secret.

In some instances we may collect personal information from you which is unsolicited.  To the extent reasonable, we will delete or de-identify any unsolicited personal information. 

BDO may share your information with its Related Bodies Corporate (as defined in the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)) throughout the BDO firm network; BDO’s third party service providers who assist BDO in providing its products and services to you (such as marketing service providers, IT service providers, contractors and sales consultants); and any other organisation covered in BDO’s Privacy Policy.

It is possible that BDO may disclose some of the information collected to its Related Bodies Corporate or service providers outside of Australia. You consent to your information being disclosed to a destination outside Australia for this purpose, including but not limited to: Israel, Mauritius, Netherlands, New Zealand, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States and you understand and acknowledge that Australian Privacy Principle 8.1 will not apply to such disclosures of your personal information.

Our Privacy Policy sets out how you can access and correct any of your personal information and how you may make a complaint if you consider that we have not complied with the Privacy Act when handling your personal information.
