  • Under what circumstances Reef Catchments discloses personal information to third parties.

  • covers Reef Catchments’ treatment of any personally identifiable information that Reef Catchments obtains from third parties in the ordinary course of its operations.

Analytics, Internet Marketing, and Cookies

Reef Catchments uses Google webmaster tools and Google Analytics and, like many other organisations which operate online, Reef Catchments uses cookies which do not identify anything about customers personally, but do allow Reef Catchments to track generic information about the use of this website, such as which pages customers visit, and for how long customers visit these pages. You can view and manage cookies in your browser (though browsers for mobile devices may not offer this visibility).

These services place and leave a cookie in internet browsers, and may use web beacons to collect information for Reef Catchments use (i.e. if internet browser security settings are configured to allow this). These cookies do not identify anything about the customer personally, but do allow Reef Catchments to track generic information about use of this website, such as which pages customers visit, and for how long customers visit these pages.

Customers of Reef Catchments can learn more about the Google cookies. There is an internet industry group which runs the Network Advertising Initiative, which allows customers to stop using a range of network advertising beyond what Reef Catchments uses.

Reef Catchments may make changes to its privacy policy at any time. When changes occur  the organisation will publish the updated Privacy Policy on this page. Reef Catchments will not circulate it other than at this link on the Reef Catchments website. The customer is responsible to check the policy for updates.
