Our Commitment

DMAG is committed to complying with the National Principles for the Fair Handling of Personal Information developed by the Australian Federal Privacy Commissioner. In addition, our employees, consultants and contractors are obliged to respect the confidentiality of any personal information held by DMAG.
You can also play an important role in keeping your personal information secure, by maintaining the confidentiality of your membership password. Please notify us immediately if there is any unauthorised use of your membership account by any other Internet user or any other breach of security.

What Information Do We Collect And How Will We Use It?

Certain personal information is requested on becoming a member, including your name, email address, postcode and date of birth.
Some of this information (including sensitive information) is essential for us to be able to accurately identify who is entitled to member-privileged services, and as such is mandatory. Other types of information are collected to help us profile who is using these services and what their interests are. Information of this type is optional and need only be filled in if you wish to do so.
We value your trust in www.DMAG.com.au. Your information will be held in the strictest confidence. The information we collect from your use of our site enables us to provide a better service that is tailored to your needs and helps us to identify the areas of our site that are popular and those that are not.
DMAG or its sponsor will not disclose any personal information about you except under the following circumstances:
(i) You would reasonably expect us to use the personal information for that purpose; and
(ii) That other purpose is related to the primary purpose; or
(iii) You consent to such use; or
(iv) When required by Law.
DMAG may share non-personal, aggregate information about our visitors and members with unrelated third parties, including sponsors and advertisers. DMAG will not share personally identifiable information about any visitor and / or member with unrelated third parties without obtaining the consent of such visitor and / or member.
DMAG will not sell or disclose your personal information to unrelated third parties without your consent. However, on particular pages where we ask for your personal information, we may explicitly tell you that the data we are collecting on that page might be shared with third parties, such as our sponsors or parties providing services to our visitors and / or members. In such cases, your act of disclosure of your personal information shall be deemed as your specific consent and shall override anything to the contrary in this policy statement and / or Terms and Conditions (link to Terms & Conditions).

An Introduction To Cookies

A "cookie" is a text file containing information about your website preferences which is stored by your browser on your hard disk. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer.
Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. The use of cookies is an industry standard and you will find most major websites use them.
DMAG does not use cookies or IP address tracking to retrieve personal information from your computer. DMAG however uses certain third-party advertising services to display advertising for our advertisers. These third-party services may place a cookie on your computer for the purposes of ad tracking and presentation. DMAG does not share personally identifiable information about visitors with any advertising service.

Checking And Updating Your Information

If you wish to update or change personal information collected in your membership account, please login and amend your details. All of your details and preferences will be displayed and may be updated live.

Chat Rooms And Discussion Forums

Please remember that any information you share in our chat rooms and discussion forums becomes public, so you should be careful about what you disclose.
By posting comments to these public areas you grant, or warrant that you expressly grant DMAG the royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive and fully sub-licensable right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, perform and display such any materials (in whole or part) worldwide and/or to incorporate it in other works in any form, media, or technology now known or later developed.
See our Terms & Conditions (link to Terms and Conditions) for further information.

Third Party Sites

Please note that this policy does not apply to use of third party sites that are available through and / or hyper linked to the DMAG website. DMAG provides links to third parties websites outside of the DMAG service. These linked sites are not under the control of DMAG, and we are not responsible for the conduct of companies linked to our website. Before disclosing your personal information on any other website, we advise you to examine the privacy policies / terms and conditions of using their websites.

Your Subscription To Promotional Emails

When you sign up for DMAG membership, you can request to receive promotional information from DMAG and / or other merchants directly. These merchants are organisations or companies whose products or services may be of interest to members of DMAG. If you sign up to receive the offers but later decide you don't want them, just email us at unsubscribe@DMAG.com.au (pop up email link). Please allow seven days for this request to be processed.

Privacy Of Credit Card Details

Online shopping provides easy access to many shopping opportunities from the comfort of your own home 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The team at DMAG wants to ensure that you can shop with complete confidence online and have selected online retailers that provide an added level of security called SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). This security is actually safer than using your credit card at a department store or over the phone.What Is SSL? Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology ensures information is safely encrypted (or scrambled). This means SSL encrypts your order including your credit card number prior to sending them to the online retailer. This sophisticated encryption process ensures that prying eyes are unable to decode your personal data when it travels from your computer to the online retailer and ensures your privacy & the integrity of your order.
SSL is the system that is used by all reputable online retailers. It is compatible with Netscape and Internet Explorer.
How Do I Know Online Retailers Are Using This Added Level Of Security?
Your web browser will display a special icon. A closed padlock or an unbroken key appears on the bottom of the screen to show that an online retailer is using this security measure. This icon is usually located in the bottom corner of the browser window on the checkout page.

Children's Privacy

The safety and wellbeing of children is very important to us. We ask that children under the age of 16 have a parent or guardian supervise their use of our site and assist them with sending any transmission over the Internet.
DMAG will make every reasonable effort to ensure that children's privacy and other rights are not compromised. However, it is ultimately the responsibility of parents to monitor their children's usage of the Internet.

Changes To The Privacy Statement

DMAG is committed to comply with any laws introduced to strengthen protection for your privacy. Our Privacy Statement will be reviewed and may be revised from time to time. DMAG reserves the right to change its privacy policy at any time and notify you by posting an updated version of the policy on this website. We encourage you to regularly review these policies.
