Acorn Consulting Group is committed to treating the Personal Information we collect in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPS) in The Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). This policy sets out how Acorn Consulting handles Personal Information. This privacy policy does not apply to personal information collected by Acorn Consulting that is exempt under the Privacy Act, for example employee records.

We collect Personal Information either directly from you or via our website.

We collect Personal Information from the following:
Examples of information that is collected are names, address, date of birth, gender, material status, occupation, your contact details and the details of other persons that you might give to us. It also includes information from conversations and material provided by third parties.
