1. Your Personal Information
Marquee Projects recognises that your privacy is very important to you and that you have a right to control your personal information. We know that providing personal information is an act of trust and we take our responsibility for your information seriously.
Unless you give us explicit consent to act otherwise, the following policy will govern how Marquee Projects handles your personal information and safeguards your privacy. By using Marquee Project’s products and services, you consent to Marquee Projects using your personal information as set out in this Privacy Policy.
1.1 What does “personal information” mean?
Personal information is any information about you that identifies you or by which your identity may be reasonably determined. By collecting this personal information we are able to:
- Contact you when and where necessary;
- Ensure that you attain the best possible service; and
- Identify you and protect you from any unauthorised access to your personal information.
If you choose not to provide personal information to us, we may not be able to provide you with access to parts of the website or to certain content, products and services available on or from our website.

Personal information which we may collect and hold includes:-
- Your name, date of birth and address including email address;
- Your phone number and mobile phone number;
- Other personal information necessary for the services we offer to you.
Marquee Projects may record anonymous information which tells us about visitors to our website but not the identity of those visitors.

We may also use “cookies” that are small pieces of information that allow an organisation to track websites browsed by you. You may be able to adjust your browser to disable cookies. However, if you do disable cookies, you may not be able to interact with our website or take advantage of the improved functionality that cookies enable.
1.3 How Marquee Projects collects and holds personal information
Marquee Projects will collect your personal information directly from you where possible. In some instances, we will collect your personal information from an associate of yours, in which case we will obtain your consent.
As a general rule, we do not collect sensitive information. Sensitive information is a type of personal information and can include, but is not limited to, information about an individual’s health, opinions and beliefs. However, if we do collect sensitive information, it will usually be for the purposes of providing our services and we will seek your consent to collect it.
In the course of providing the requested services, we may collect and hold personal information relating to an associate of yours where it is impractical or unreasonable to seek the same information directly from the associate. You must take reasonable steps to ensure that you are authorised to disclose that information to Marquee Projects.

We will tell you why we are collecting information when we collect it and how we plan to use it or these things will be obvious when we collect the information. Personal information is used only for the purpose for which it is submitted or for such other secondary purposes that are related to that purpose, unless we disclose other uses in this Privacy Policy or at the time of collection.
Marquee Projects collects and holds your personal information in order to fulfil a service for you, whether it is the provision of our services, providing you with upcoming news from Marquee Projects that may interest you, or updating you in relation to further developments.
We may use personally identifiable information in a summative form to improve our services and make them more responsive to the needs of our customers. This statistical compilation and analysis of information may also be used by us or provided to others as a summary report for marketing, advertising or research purposes.
We will not sell, transfer, assign or rent your personal information. In order to operate the website and to deliver to you the service which you have requested, we may sometimes share your personal information to an affiliate or subsidiary which is necessary to deliver your requested items or services to you. We will not otherwise disclose your personal information to other companies without your consent.
1.5 Who would Marquee Projects disclose your personal information to?

We may also disclose your personal information where you have consented to us doing so in providing you with our services or where disclosure is necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was submitted.
We may need to disclose or transfer your personal information if Marquee Projects is acquired by or merged with another entity.
Marquee Projects will, at all times, attempt to ensure that we do not disclose your personal information to a third party where consent for such disclosure has not been given. In all cases where we may be required to disclose information we will attempt to obtain your direct consent for such disclosure.
