1. Introduction

Kimberly-Clark Australia Pty Limited ("KCA") respects and upholds your rights to privacy protection under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Privacy Act 1993 (NZ) and is required to comply with the Australian National Privacy Principles and New Zealand Information Privacy Principles in respect of the collection, use, disclosure and handling of personal information.

Our Privacy Policy details the practices we have adopted to protect your privacy so that you can feel confident about how we manage the personal information you provide to us.

2. When and How We Collect Personal Information

Personal Information is any information that can be used to identify you. KCA may collect personal information from you from time to time such as your name and email address through this site.

If you wish to use KCA's services through this site, KCA will require certain personal information from you in order to provide the services.

3. How KCA Uses this Personal Information

The personal information you provide to KCA through this site will only be used by KCA and its related companies (noting that the site is hosted in the United States) for the purpose for which you have provided it. You can review the companies that form Kimberly-Clark at:  http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/55785/000005578512000021/kmb-123111xexx21.htm. We will always seek your consent to use your personal information, to advise you of any relevant information, special offers and promotions.

Your personal information is never shared, sold, rented or otherwise disclosed outside KCA or its related companies (except as required for any statutory or legal requirements).

4. Security of Information

KCA takes reasonable steps to ensure the security of all information it collects, including that the information is protected from misuse and loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

However no data transmission over the internet or information stored on servers accessible through the internet can be guaranteed to be fully secure.

5. Cookies

KCA is committed to providing a website tailored to suit our professional customers' needs.  Accordingly, we collect information from your use of the website through you actively submitting any personal details to this website, and also passively by means of "cookies".

A "cookie" is a small piece of data sent from a website and stored in a user's web browser while a user is browsing a website. When you access our site we use a cookie or cookies that identify your IP address and type of browser, and other anonymous information to help us administer this website, analyse use of the website, and provide users with a better website experience.

A "cookie" may also be used to track your personal use of this website.  This will only occur when you have (a) submitted any personal details to this website, or (b) when you open a link in any email correspondence sent to you by or on behalf of KCA or Kimberly-Clark which directs you to this website. By submitting such information or opening these links, you are taken to consent to this tracking.  The information will be used to provide you with better service in your use of the website, customise the website based on your preference and compile and analyse which areas of the website are of interest to you. We may also, from time to time, use the personal information we collect to inform you about our products, services, or promotions which we think may be of interest to you.  We will provide the opportunity for you to express a wish not to receive such communications.

Bookmark & Share: Please note that the 'Bookmark & Share' functionality on the website is run by a third party provider (AddThis).  If you use this 'Bookmark & Share' functionality, AddThis may also use a cookie or third party web beacon to collect certain anonymous information about your visit of our website. This does not obtain any personal information about you, but AddThis may use the information collected from your use of Bookmark & Share' functionality (and your visit to this or other websites) to provide your computer with advertisements about products and services in which you have the greatest interest.

Any cookies used on this website are readable only by KCA and cannot access, read or modify any other data on a computer, or your use of other websites.  However, if you would prefer that cookies not be used to identify your use or access to this website, you are able to set your browser to refuse cookies (the 'help' portion of your toolbar will generally direct you on how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies or fully disabling cookies), or to alert you when cookies are being sent to you.  Some parts of this website may then no longer be available.

6. Access and Correction of Personal Information

If your personal information changes (such as your address) or you wish to correct or update your personal information on file, we will endeavour to correct or  update your information.

If you believe for any reason that we are holding inaccurate or incomplete information about you, you may request us to correct it.
