5. Access and Correction

Under the Privacy Act, you have a right to seek access to information which Prezioso Photography holds about you (although there are some exceptions to this). You also have the right to ask us to correct information about you which is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date.

If you wish to exercise your right under the Privacy Act to seek access to or correct the personal information that Prezioso Photography holds about you, we ask that you contact Prezioso Photography by e-mail at enquiries@prezioso.com.au.

In the first instance, we will generally provide you with a summary of the information we hold about you. We will assume (unless you tell us otherwise) that your request relates to our current records about you. These current records will include personal information about you which is included in our computers, databases and in paper files, and which may be used by Prezioso Photography on a day to day basis.

To provide you with access to this personal information, Prezioso Photography will ordinarily provide you with a print-out of the relevant personal information from our databases, or with photocopies of records which are held only on paper files. If personal information about you (for example, your name & address details) is duplicated across different databases, we will generally provide you with one print-out of this information, rather than multiple print-outs. Ordinarily, Prezioso Photography will not charge you for the cost of providing this type of access to these records.

For legal and administrative reasons, Prezioso Photography may also store records containing personal information in its archives. You may seek access to the records held by Prezioso Photography which are not current records, but if you do so, we may charge you for the cost of providing access.

If you are of the view that personal information about you is not accurate, complete or up to date, please provide Prezioso Photography with your request for correction. Prezioso Photography's policy is to consider any requests for correction in a timely way.
