This statement outlines LCP Global’s policy on how it uses and manages personal information provided to or collected by it. LCP Global Pty Ltd is committed to protecting the privacy of your personal information.
LCP Global is bound by the Australian Privacy Principles contained in the Commonwealth Privacy Act and is compliant with the Privacy Amendment (Enhancing Privacy Protection) Act 2012. In relation to health records, LCP Global is also bound by the Victorian Health Privacy Principles which are contained in the Health Records Act 2001 (and other state legislation).
LCP Global may, from time to time, review and update this Privacy Policy to take account of new laws and technology, changes to LCP Global operations and practices and to make sure it remains appropriate to the changing LCP Global environment.
The type of information LCP Global collects and holds includes (but is not limited to) personal information, including sensitive information, about:
you before, during and after your use of the LCP Leadership Accelerator™ virtual coaching program;
LCP Global Pty Ltd will only collect information that is necessary for the performance and primary function of delivering the products and services requested, and do so by lawful and fair means and not in an unreasonably intrusive way.
LCP Global Pty Ltd will generally collect personal information held about an individual via use of the LCP Leadership Accelerator™ and its related programs. On occasions people other than you may provide personal information – for instance, your employer. You do have the right to seek to deal with us anonymously or using a pseudonym, but in almost every circumstance it will not be practical for us to deal with you or provide any services (including leadership journals and reports related to the LCP Leadership Accelerator program) to you except for the most general responses to general enquiries, unless you identify yourself.
In some circumstances LCP Global may be provided with personal information about an individual from a third party, for example, a report provided by a medical professional or a reference from another organization.
Under the Privacy Act, the Australian Privacy Principles do not apply to an employee record. As a result, this Privacy Policy does not apply to LCP Global’s treatment of an employee record, where the treatment is directly related to a current or former employment relationship between LCP Global Pty Ltd and employee. However, LCP Global Pty Ltd must provide access and ensure compliance with the Health Privacy Principles under the Victorian Health Records Act 2001 and other state legislation.
LCP Global Pty Ltd will use personal information it collects from you for the primary purpose of collection, and for such other secondary purposes that are related to the primary purpose of collection and reasonably expected, or to which you have consented.
Before any of your personal information is used for reporting to your corporate employer or for research purposes, it will be de-identified and edited to ensure your identity cannot be directly or indirectly established at any time. We abide by the principles of the Australian Market & Social Research Society’s Code of Professional Behaviour (www.amsrs.com.au).
Personal information you provide to us during completion of the LCP Leadership Accelerator and in relation to other products and services you have purchased from LCP Global Pty Ltd will be used to:

If we use your personal information obtained from elsewhere we will still send you direct marketing information where you have consented and which will also contain an opt out. We will always obtain your consent to use sensitive information as the basis for any of our marketing. We never sell or distribute your personal information to direct marketing companies.
