Collection of Personal Information
Personal information is generally defined as information or an opinion that can identify a person. The type of personal information that SCT collects from its customers will depend upon what dealings customers may have with SCT.

Sharing information with other organisations
SCT does not sell personal information to companies outside the SCT. The only circumstances in which external organisations may be given access to SCT's customer personal information are when SCT's contractors and service providers are assisting SCT in the operation of its business or to provide a customer service (for example, a company which helps maintain SCT's computer systems or sends out SCT's mail). SCT requires these organisations to agree to SCT's Privacy Policy and to strict conditions governing how this information may be used.

Marketing
SCT may send advertising mail to its customers where the advertising mail is related to the purpose for which the information was collected. If the customer no longer wishes to receive promotional information from SCT, the customer should advise the SCT Privacy Officer. Normally SCT's records would be amended within 30 days.
