Introduction
The Internet provides access to volumes and varieties of information that was previously unheard of, however it also brings a whole new set of issues regarding personal privacy.

Synergistex (ABN 20 547 270 993) respects the privacy of every individual who uses our services.

This policy describes the standards and terms under which Synergistex protects such privacy. It has been prepared to assist you in understanding the manner in which your information is collected and managed, as well as the steps taken to guard it. This policy may change from time to time, so please check periodically to review this information.

Synergistex is committed to voluntarily supporting the privacy standards suggested by industry bodies, such as the Internet Industry Association Code of Conduct and the Australian Government's National Privacy Principles.

In essence, Synergistex is committed to providing a reliable and secure service whilst protecting the privacy of its members.

In order to provide the most efficient, user friendly and highest quality services it is necessary to gather certain information about our members.
