Overview

We are the Achieve Foundation Limited (ABN 76059432610) (we, us and our) and we run the Rocket Careers program. Our job is to help make your job search and training experience as easy and safe as possible. To do this, we need to collect and use some of your personal information.
This information is important, and we care about protecting your privacy.
This document is our Privacy Policy and explains how we collect and manage your personal information.
By using our services, visiting our platforms or speaking with us over the phone, via email, in person or in any other way, this Privacy Policy will apply to you.

Information we collect

Personal information is information that can identify you. We usually collect things like:

  • your name, address, email and phone number; and
  • your work history or other information relating to work, such as references and employment objectives.

We also collect sensitive information, including your health and disability information.
We only collect what we need to help you find work or training, follow the law and run our service.

How we collect your personal information

Most of the time, we collect your personal information straight from you when:

  • you contact us by phone, letter, in-person or e-mail; or
  • you sign up or apply for work on our website, event registrations or job board.

From time to time, we may also collect your personal information through other ways and we will ask your permission before we do so. This may be through a privacy collection notice.
We may also collect personal information about you from other people if we need it to run our service. Other people may include people we work with, customers or other people, such as employers and people you have nominated as referees, credit agencies or government agencies.
If you just have a general question, you don’t have to tell us your real name. But if you’re applying for a job or need our help, we’ll need your real details, including how to contact you.

Collection of personal information through cookies

Our website uses cookies (small files saved on your device) to remember your settings and see how people use our website. You can turn off cookies in your browser, but some parts of the website might not work.
When you visit our websites, we may automatically collect personal information like:

  • your IP address;
  • when you visit and what pages you look at; and
  • the browser you are using.

We look at this information to help us make our website and services better.

How we collect your sensitive information

Sensitive information includes things like your health, disability or criminal record. We may collect this if you say it’s okay or if the law says we must.

How we use your personal information

We use your personal information to:

  • help you find jobs or training opportunities;
  • send you newsletters with information about our services and potential opportunities if you want them;
  • make our services better, keep records and run our business; and
  • do what the law asks us to do.

If you don’t want to receive our newsletters, you can let us know by email or post and we will stop sending them.
We will keep your personal information private and we won’t use it for anything else unless you say it’s okay or the law says we must.

How we disclose your personal information

Sometimes, we need to share your personal information with other service providers who help us run our services.
We may share your personal information with:

  • service providers who provide employment services;
  • skills, training and educational organisations;
  • people who provide career support; and
  • other organisations who can help you in your job search and training goals.

We may also have to share your information if a court or law enforcement asks us or the law says we must or permits us.
Some of the service providers and people mentioned above with whom we share your personal information may have offices located outside Australia. At this time, it is not practical for us to list the countries where those offices are located.

Security of your personal information

Your personal information may be stored in hardcopy or electronic form. We take reasonable steps to keep your personal information safe in whatever form it is held. Only staff who need it can access it. Your personal information may be stored in hardcopy or electronically. We often update our security measures for new technologies.

When you leave our website, you should read the privacy policies of each website you visit. This Privacy Policy only applies to the information we collect on this website.

Accessing and correcting your personal information

You can ask us what personal information we have about you. You can also ask us to fix anything that’s incorrect about you. If you would like to do this, just email or write to us. We may ask for your ID in order to process your request.
If we say we are unable to provide you access, we’ll explain why we can’t do this under the law.
