What is personal information?

Personal information is any information or opinion about you that identifies you, or from which your identity can be reasonably determined.

Kinds of information that we collect

The kinds of personal information we may collect include your name, contact details and possibly financial information, including your credit card information or bank account details and other information you give us (such as information relating to an enquiry you make).

We may also collect additional personal details about you, including your birth date, occupation, gender, marital status and number of children, shirt size, frequent flyer no., information about your interests (such as sports, music, movies, cars), memberships, dietary preferences, information about your home, pets, social media usernames and publicly available information from social media websites or information about your building activities (such as whether you are a home owner, renovator, builder, or architect).

How do we collect your personal information?

We may collect personal information from our customers, prospective employees, contractors, trading partners and existing or possible consumers of our products and services.

We collect personal information through application forms or our online contact form. We may also obtain personal information when you use our website or the website of other companies, for example, companies that sell or distribute our products.

Where it is reasonable and practicable to do so, Gliderol collects personal information directly from an individual.

On occasions, your personal information may be collected from third parties, for example, from companies that sell or distribute our products, organisations that provide information on construction projects, tenders, fit-outs and contracts available in the market, credit reporting agencies, medical practitioners, previous employers and those other entities to whom we disclose information as set out below.

  • to provide you with the products and services you request, provide you with new or technical and other information in relation to those products and services and otherwise conduct our business with you;
  • unless you ask us not to, to send you promotional offers and other direct marketing material about products and services we believe may be of interest to you by mail, phone, fax email, or SMS.  If you do not want us to use or disclose your personal information for this purpose, you can request us not to do so through any method notified to you in the communication that we send to you or by sending your request to us through the following methods:
