Privacy Policy

Cell8 Pty Limited (Trading as Aspera Mobile) (ABN 41 155 492 863) (Cell8 or We/we or Our/our or Us/us) is committed to respecting the privacy of your personal information.

This Privacy Policy explains our policy for dealing with personal information that we collect through our website asperamobile.com , any related Cell8 website, mobile application and social media page (each, a Website) and the privacy of individuals who provide personal information by any other means to Cell8, including either physically or electronically (together, the Collection Channels).

You may contact us with any queries you may have in respect of this Privacy Policy or your personal information by contacting the Privacy Officer at Cell8 via email: [email protected]; mail: Cell8 Pty Ltd, Suite 2, 6 McIntosh Street, Chatswood NSW, Australia 2067; or telephone:1300656456

Personal information is important to Cell8

  1. Cell8 is committed to safeguarding personal privacy. It recognises that you have a right to control how your personal information is collected and used. Providing personal information is an act of trust and it is taken seriously. Unless given consent to do otherwise, Cell8 will only collect and use personal information as set out below.
  2. Throughout this Privacy Policy, we refer to your ‘personal information’, which means information which identifies you as an individual or which renders you reasonably identifiable. Your name, gender, date of birth, home address, home telephone number, mobile telephone number, email address and workplace contact details are examples of information which may constitute personal information. Personal information may also include information we may collect about your individual preferences.
  3. Cell8 has developed and implemented its Privacy Policy with respect to personal information to reflect world best practice on privacy policies. These principles meet and exceed the requirements of the Privacy Act 1988(Cth) (as amended) and the 13 Australian Privacy Principles.
  4. In order to keep up with changing legislation and best practice, we may revise this Privacy Policy at any time without notice. We will post any changes to this Privacy Policy on our website www.asperamobile.com, so we encourage you to check this Privacy Policy from time to time.
  5. In addition to the provisions of this Privacy Policy, there may also be specific and additional privacy and consent provisions that apply to certain Collection Channels. Because those specific and additional provisions also relate to your privacy protection, we recommend that you review them wherever they appear. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Privacy Policy and those other specific and additional provisions, the specific and additional provisions will prevail.

Collecting Personal Information

  1. Cell8 will not collect or monitor any personal information about you without your consent including as provided in this Privacy Policy. The only personal information collected by us is what has been provided to us or to third parties in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
  2. Personal information may be collected via our Collection Channels if you:
    1. sign-up and register to become a member of a Website;
    2. find a distributor of a product listed on a Website;
    3. subscribe to any Cell8 newsletters, updates, alerts, news and media release, launch or event information and information about our products or other information services;
    4. complete and submit any forms to us;
    5. contact us directly in person or via any medium including mail, telephone and commercial electronic messages (SMS (Short Message Service), MMS (Multimedia Message Service), IM (Instant Messaging) and email) including via the contact details listed on a Website;
    6. participate in any offers, promotions or marketing activities;  or
    7. interact with or browse a Website generally.
  3. Personal information that may be requested includes:
    1. contact information such as your full name, telephone number, mobile telephone number, current and valid email address, residential address and postcode:
    2. information regarding your experience with our products or services and more detailed contact preferences. This information is requested in order to tailor our subsequent communications to you and continuously improve our products and services; and
    3. the contact details of third parties. If you are asked to provide details about other people, please ensure that these individuals are happy for their details to be given to Cell8 and used for the purposes set out in this policy (which may include using their details for marketing purposes).
  4. Personal information is requested in order to facilitate or provide you with certain content, products or services, and information about such content, products or services (including the uploading, access to, and receipt of content on a Website), marketing materials, newsletters, electronic newsletters (e-newsletters), news and media release / launch information, and also to advise you of other Cell8 products, services, competitions, offers or events which may be of interest. No one is obligated to provide personal information. However, failure to do so may result in Cell8 being unable to facilitate or provide you with certain content, products or services, products or services information, upcoming competition, offer or event information or accept competition entries (as applicable).
  5. As with many commercial websites, we may also collect information which tells us about visitors to our Websites. For example, we may collect information about the date, time and duration of visits and which pages of a Website are most commonly accessed. This information is generally not linked to the identity of visitors, except where a Website is accessed via links in an email we have sent or where we are able to uniquely identify the device or user accessing a Website. By accessing a Website via links in an email we have sent and/or by accessing a Website generally, you consent to the collection of such information where it is personal information.
  6. Cell8 or www.asperamobile.com is neither intended for, nor directed to, persons who are under the age of thirteen (13) years old. Personal information will not be collected by any person who is known by Cell8 to be under the age of eighteen (18) without the consent of a parent or legal guardian. Persons under age eighteen (18) may only use our Websites with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian.

Passive Information Collection

  1. As you navigate through our Websites, certain information can be passively collected (that is, gathered without your actively providing the information) using various technologies, such as cookies, Internet tags or web beacons, and navigational data collection (log files, server logs, clickstream). In certain circumstances, this information may be considered anonymous information, or personal information under the Privacy Act 1988(Cth). This is dependent on the device used and the method by which an individual connects to the Internet. Your Internet browser automatically transmits to the Website you are browsing some of this anonymous information or personal information, such as the URL of the website you just came from and the Internet Protocol (IP) address and the browser version your computer is currently using. Our Websites may also collect anonymous information or personal information from your computer through cookies and Internet tags or web beacons. You may set your browser to notify you when a cookie is sent or to refuse cookies altogether, but certain features of a Website might not work without cookies and this may limit the services provided by a Website. Cookies and other technical methods may involve the transmission of information either directly to us or to another party authorised by us to collect information on our behalf.
  2. Our Websites may use and combine such passively collected anonymous information or personal information from various third party sources, including as described in paragraph 12, to provide better service to Website visitors and users, customise a Website based on your preferences, compile and analyse statistics and trends, and otherwise administer and improve a Website for your use. We may combine your visitor session information or other information collected through tracking technologies with personally identifiable information from time to time in order to understand and measure your online experiences and to determine what products, promotions and services are likely to be of interest to you. By accessing a Website, you consent to information about you being collected, compiled and used in this way.
  3. “Cookies” are pieces of information that a Website transfers to a computer’s hard disk for record keeping purposes. Most web browsers are set to accept cookies. Cell8 may use cookies to make use of a Website and services as convenient as possible. Cookies do not themselves personally identify users, although they do identify a user’s browser. Cookies allow Cell8 to monitor the items you may want to access as you move through a Website, and record how many people are using the different parts of a Website.
  4. “Session” cookies are temporary bits of information that are used to improve navigation, block visitors from providing information where inappropriate (a Website “remembers” previous entries of age or country of origin that were outside the specified parameters and blocks subsequent changes), and collect aggregate statistical information on a Website. They are erased once you exit your web browser or otherwise turn off your computer.
  5. “Persistent” cookies are more permanent bits of information that are placed on the hard drive of your computer and stay there unless you delete the cookie. Persistent cookies store information on your computer for a number of purposes, such as retrieving certain information you have previously provided (such as passwords), helping to determine what areas of a Website visitors find most valuable, and customising a Website based on your preferences on an ongoing basis. Persistent cookies placed by a Website on your computer may hold personally identifiable information, but only if you have registered or have otherwise consented to the retention of personally identifiable information you have provided at the Website. Otherwise, a Website’s server only knows that an unidentified visitor with your cookie has returned to the Website.
  6. You can set your browser to accept all cookies, to reject all cookies, or to notify you whenever a cookie is offered so that you can decide each time whether to accept it. To learn more about cookies and how to specify your preferences, please search for “cookie” in the “Help” portion of your browser.
  7. A Website may use IP addresses. An IP address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider so you can access the Internet and is generally considered to be non-personally identifiable information, because in most cases an IP address is dynamic (changing each time you connect to the Internet), rather than static (unique to a particular user’s computer). The IP address can be used to diagnose problems with a server, report aggregate information, determine the fastest route for your computer to use in connecting to a Website, and administer and improve the Website.
  8. “Internet tags” (also known as single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, invisible GIFs, and 1-by-1 GIFs) are smaller than cookies and tell a Website server information such as the IP address and browser type related to the visitor’s computer. Tags may be placed both on online advertisements that bring people to a Website and on different pages of a Website. Such tags indicate how many times a page is opened and which information is consulted.
  9. “Navigational data” (log files, server logs, and clickstream data) are used for system management, to improve the content of a Website and the user experience, market research purposes, and to communicate information to visitors.
  10. We may also use these technologies in HTML emails that we send to our visitors for a number of purposes including: to determine whether our visitors have opened or forwarded those emails and/or clicked on links in those emails; to customise the display of banner advertisements and other messages after a visitor has closed an email; and to determine whether a visitor has made an enquiry or a purchase in response to a particular email.

Using and disclosing your personal information

  1. Personal information collected will be used for the following primary purposes:
    1. For the purposes for which it was collected (as advised in this Privacy Policy and on a privacy collection statement on a particular Collection Channel).

Also, in order to operate a Website or deliver a service, personal information may also be shared with Cell8 group companies, selected service providers and/or other trusted third parties, but only so that they can perform their relevant function and not for any other purpose.
  3. Cell8 recognises the trust with which you provide personal information, and except as stated in this Privacy Policy, such information will not be used or disclosed for any other purposes without consent, except in exceptional cases when disclosure may be required by law or is necessary to protect the rights or property of Cell8, any Cell8 group company, or any member of the public, or to lessen a serious threat to a person’s health or safety.
