Keypath Education Australia Pty Ltd Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”)

 

Last updated:  January 11 2024

 

Victoria University (“University”) partners with Keypath Education Australia Pty Ltd (who we refer to, together with our related bodies corporate[1], as “Keypath”, “Keypath Group”, “us”, “we”, or “our”, depending on the context) to deliver certain online courses offered by the University.  We provide Services such as course design, development, recruitment and marketing, as well as student support for the duration of a student’s enrolment (“Services”).  The performance of these Services requires the collection and use of Personal Information (as defined under ‘What we mean by “Personal Information”’ below) and the sharing of that information by and between Keypath and the University.  Keypath and the University respect your privacy and take seriously the privacy and security of Personal Information.

 

This Privacy Policy explains:

  • what Personal Information we collect, how we collect that Personal Information, and how we use that Personal Information;
  • when and with whom we may share the Personal Information we collect; and
  • your choices and rights regarding your Personal Information.

 

This Privacy Policy applies to the Personal Information we collect, including through any sites (such as websites, apps or social network sites) that link to this Privacy Policy (referred to collectively as “Site”), as well as through any other contact you have with Keypath including through, or on behalf of the University, in connection with the Keypath-supported online educational courses they offer (referred to generally as a “Course” or the “Courses”). 

 

In addition, the University’s Privacy Policy will also be applicable to any dealings with your Personal Information by the University.

 

We will always deal with your Personal Information in accordance with all relevant laws, including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy and would prefer that we do not collect, use, or share your Personal Information as we describe, then you should not submit any Personal Information to us, including through a Site, or otherwise provide us with any of your Personal Information.

 

Unless otherwise required by law, and where practicable, you can choose to remain anonymous or to use a pseudonym when communicating with us. Please note that if we are unable to collect Personal Information from or about you, it may be difficult or impossible for you to access Services through a Site, for us to be able to respond to your requests or enquiries, or for us to engage in other dealings with you. For example, you may not be able to enrol in or complete a Course. However, it is your choice whether you want to interact with us and the University, enrol in Courses, and/or participate in online learning through the University and your interactions with us and the Site.

 

COLLECTION AND USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

A. What We Mean By “Personal Information”.

“Personal Information” is information or an opinion, in any form and whether true or not, about an identified individual or an individual who is reasonably identifiable. Different states, countries, and laws define Personal Information (or similar terms, such as “personally identifiable information” and “personal data”) differently, but Personal Information generally includes information such as your name, mailing address, e-mail address, and phone number. It may also include the internet protocol (IP) address of your computer or mobile device, if that IP address can be linked to you from specific information we handle, or other information (such as other Personal Information accessible to us, or geo-location information) that can be used to ultimately identify you.

 

B. The Kinds of Personal Information That We Collect and Hold, and How We Collect It.

The kinds of Personal Information we collect and hold about you depends on the nature of your dealings with us and the circumstances of collection. For example:

 

  • we may collect your name, telephone number, email address and other information you choose to provide to us, if you decide to contact us through a “Contact Us”, “Request More Information”, or similar links on a Site, or if you otherwise request information about the University or about the Courses, units and other services we and they offer, including via subsequent telephone, electronic voice, or text communications with our representatives;
  • if you apply for enrolment in a Course, or if you sign up to receive newsletters or other materials, we may collect your name, email address, and any other information you include with your submission, or that we or the University require to make a determination on your suitability for enrolment in the Course; and
  • if you participate in a Course, we will obtain Personal Information from you so that we and the University are able to provide you with the services that you have signed up to receive, as well as to seek your feedback as to your experience in regard to the Course and the services received.

 

If you deal with us in some other capacity, we may collect your name and contact details and any other information you choose to provide to us. Other categories and examples of the types of Personal Information we collect are set out under “The Purposes For Which We Collect, Hold, Use and Disclose Personal Information” below.

 

We may collect sensitive information (such as health information) in limited circumstances (as described in more detail below under "The Purposes For Which We Collect, Hold, Use and Disclose Personal Information”), and we will only collect sensitive information about you as required to deliver the Services (unless we are otherwise required or authorised by or under law to do so).   

 

If you are or have been our employee, the handling of your Personal Information may be exempt from the Australian Privacy Principles if it is directly related to your employment relationship with us.

 

In addition, a Site may automatically collect certain information from you when you visit it, such as your IP address or other unique identifier of your computer or other device, and information about the browsing history and website, app or social media interactions associated with that device. This device and online activity information may be considered Personal Information where it could be used to ultimately identify you (for example, where information held is able to be linked with other accessible information that could ultimately identify you). However, we will not use this type of automatically collected information to identify or to contact you, unless and until you voluntarily provide other Personal Information to us in the manner outlined above (such as via a “Request More Information” form). More information about how we use this information on an anonymous, de-identified and/or aggregate basis is described below under “How We Collect and Use Non-Personal Information”.

 

C. The Purposes For Which We Collect, Hold, Use and Disclose Personal Information.

We routinely collect Personal Information for the purpose of providing our Services, in order for the University to provide its services to you in relation to a Course, and for our other business functions and activities, including:

2. Personal Information We Obtain From Third Parties

As noted above, we collect some Personal Information from third parties, including Personal Information that has been provided to us from the University, in order that we can perform our Services in relation to the Course.

 

3. Certain Generally Applicable Uses of Personal Information

The Personal Information we collect directly from you and from third parties may be used for additional purposes related to the operation of our business and our provision of Services, including:

  • our and the University’s internal record-keeping;
  • to enable us or the University to contact you by e-mail, text or phone for any of the above stated reasons;
  • where necessary as part of any restructuring of the Keypath Group;
  • for compliance with legal, regulatory, and other good governance obligations;
  • to convert Personal Information into pseudonymous and/or de-identified data, and to use it (normally on an aggregated statistical basis) for research and analysis;
  • to gain insight that enables us and the University to measure the effectiveness of our Services; and
  • to learn about potential and current students, their interests, needs, and resources applicable to the Courses so that we can improve the Courses and provide you and others with better and targeted service offerings by tailoring our marketing messages to your and their specific interests, needs, and abilities.  This may include by undertaking remarketing or other targeted marketing activity or building a ‘lookalike audience’ on social media platforms to better direct our marketing messaging.

 

When we use your Personal Information for our business purposes, those business purposes include working with the University to make Courses available, responding to your, other students’ and potential students’ queries or complaints, marketing the University’s products and services, improving and developing new products and services, and ensuring the productivity, functionality, and security of the Site.

 

D. How Long We Keep Personal Information.

We will keep your Personal Information as long as we have a business need to do so and/or as necessary to meet the purpose for which the information was collected and used, unless a longer period is required by law or by contract. For example, we will keep Personal Information for at least as long as you continue to be enroled in any Course, and, if any Site allows you to create an account, we will keep the Personal Information associated with your account for as long as you maintain it. Business needs for which Personal Information may be retained include legal, tax, accounting, risk management, and other business purposes.

 

All applicant, enrolment, and student details will be kept for at least as long as we continue to provide Services to the University, unless we agree otherwise with the University. Once we cease to have a relationship with the University, our practice is to de-identify (or otherwise destroy) all Personal Information we have collected in the course of that relationship.

 

It is important to note that some Personal Information that we collect may be made public. For example, with your consent, we may use your image and testimonials in promotional materials for the University. In these circumstances, your information will be able to be seen and republished for as long as the marketing materials continue to be posted online, or as long as the hard copies remain in existence. In addition, we or the University may make available services that enable you to post information on a Site in public forums and on message boards. In these cases, once posted, the information will be able to be seen and republished by others for as long as that web page remains active. Even if web pages, apps or platforms are deleted, they may continue to be accessed if they are archived or cached. Therefore, you should think carefully before giving your consent to the use of your name, image, and comments in any materials and, if applicable, before posting anything in any public area of a Site.

 

How We Collect and Use Non-Personal Information.

A. What Is Non-Personal Information?

Non-Personal Information refers to information that is not and cannot be used to identify a specific individual, or is Personal Information that has been de-identified so that it is no longer about an identifiable individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable. This may include information about the statistical characteristics of the visitors to a Site or persons who enrol in Courses. While this information may define how you fit into a particular group of people, it is not unique to you, and it cannot be used to specifically identify you. This section describes how we collect and use non-Personal Information.

 

B. The Non-Personal Information We Collect and Why.

When you visit a Site or interact with us electronically (such as through email), we may automatically collect standard internet and website log information, and details of patterns about how you behave. This information includes your internet service provider name, your operating system, your browser type and browser language, the IP address of your computer or other device (unless such IP address can be used to identify you), your access times, whether you opened email correspondence from us, any links that you visit from those emails, the website that referred you to a Site, the specific web pages you visit and the date and time of those visits, and links clicked as you visit a Site.

 

We use this information to evaluate our Services, a Site (including to find out which parts of a Site are popular or may need improvement), to inform and evaluate marketing efforts, and to enhance your and others’ experiences with us, the University and a Site. 

 

C. Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies.

A Site, such as the Course website, utilizes “cookies”, which are anonymous identifiers and other tracking technologies such as web beacons, and which enable us to distinguish you from other users and provide you with information that is customized for you, including to show you promotions on other third-party platforms. For more information, see the “Cookies Policy” section of this Privacy Policy. 

 

D. Analytics Services.

A Site, such as the Course website, may use analytics tools and Services to collect information about your use of the Site, such as how often you visit the Site, what pages you visit, and what other sites you used prior to visiting the Site. We use the information we collect from these analytics Services to maintain and improve the Site and our and the University’s Services, to provide a better user experience, and to inform and evaluate our marketing efforts. The analytics Services we use include Google Analytics, Facebook Ads, and others. 

E. Sharing Non-Personal Information.

We may use or disclose non-personal, aggregate, anonymous information to third parties (such as the third party service providers we engage in order to improve the Site and our and the University’s Services), and to market research firms.

 

COOKIES POLICY

A. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small amounts of data that are stored on your browser, device, or the page you are viewing when you visit a website. Some cookies are deleted once you close your browser or application (session cookies), while other cookies are retained even after you exit so that you can be recognized when you return (persistent cookies). Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user, but Personal Information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.

 

B. How We Use Cookies.

We use both session and persistent cookies on a Site. The cookies we use are generally divided into the following categories:

  • Mandatory cookies: These are cookies that are required for the effective navigation of all areas of the Site.
  • Functional cookies: These are cookies that remember choices that you make when you visit the Site such as language options. They help to make your visit more personal and assist your navigation of a Site.
  • Analytics/Marketing cookies: These are cookies that automatically collect information about your use of a Site, such as the pages you visit, and the links you followed. These help us recognize previous visitors to the Site, understand how many people are using the Site, and how they navigate through it. As mentioned above, we use analytics Services to analyze user behavior, so these third parties will place these types of cookies on the Site, please see ‘Third Party Cookies’ below for further information.

 

C. Your Choices About Cookies.

Web browsers may automatically accept cookies, but you can usually change your settings to prevent that, such as by having your device warn you each time a cookie is being sent or choosing to turn off all cookies. On a Site, you will be able to disable all cookies other than mandatory cookies. This can be done through your web browser settings, and because each browser is different, you should look at your browser’s “Help” menu to learn how to modify your cookie settings. There are also online resources that may help you learn more how to opt out of targeted behavioral advertising from many major third-party network advertisers.

 

If you do disable cookies from your browser you may not be able to access certain sections of a Site that use mandatory cookies, and this may make your experiences on the Site less efficient.

 

D. Third Party Cookies

We may allow third parties to use analytics/marketing cookies on a Site in order for those third parties to provide their Services to us. These Services may include the provision of website analytics (for example, from Google Analytics) and marketing and promotional Services (such as those provided by Google Ads and Facebook). These third parties may use the information gathered by those cookies to assist us with personalizing content, providing a better user experience and for targeted advertising.

 

E. Do Not Track Requests.

Currently, certain browsers, including Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari and Microsoft Edge, offer a “do not track” (DNT) option. This option, using a technology known as a DNT header, sends a signal to websites visited by the user about the user’s DNT preference, if any, set on the browser. However, we do not currently commit to responding to browsers’ DNT signals. We cannot make this commitment because no common industry standard for DNT has been adopted by industry groups, technology companies, or regulators.

 

HOW WE MAY SHARE INFORMATION

A. Sharing Information with the University.

We collect, use, and process your Personal Information on behalf of the University, and accordingly, it will be shared with the University for all purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy, including to process applications and enrolment materials and to fulfill our contractual relationship with the University. In addition, we may also collect and share your Personal Information with the University so that we can collaborate with them for the purpose of undertaking research, and to develop, deploy, and deliver additional Courses and online programs, and to facilitate flexible online learning.

 

Please note that we have no control over how the University uses Personal Information and other information we share with them. You are reminded that the University has its own Privacy Policy, and their collection and use of your Personal Information is subject to the terms of that policy.

C. Sharing Information to Recipients Outside Australia.

Other companies in the Keypath Group and some of our service providers are located outside of Australia. As a result, Personal Information collected and held by us may be disclosed to recipients in other countries, including recipients located in the United States, the United Kingdom, Malaysia, Singapore, Israel, Japan and Canada.

 

SOCIAL NETWORK PLATFORMS, SHARING FEATURES AND THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES

We, or a Site may offer social network and similar sharing features, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube buttons, which let you share information related to a Site, the University, and/or the Course(s) you enrol in, through your preferred social network site. In addition, a Site may include links to other third party websites.

 

Further, if you provide your Personal Information to us via a social network (for example, by completing a “Contact Us”, “Request More Information”, or similar form in-app), your Personal Information will be collected by us (via our account on the relevant social network), and by the social network. 

 

The social network sites, and the third parties’ use of any data that may be collected by those sites, are not governed by this Privacy Policy. You should always review the privacy policies of any site you visit before submitting your Personal Information.

 

If you permit a connection between a Site and your social network page(s) or another third-party site, or you otherwise provide us with Personal Information via a social network platform, we (and the social network itself) may be able to identify you, and associate the information we (and they) receive with information we (and they) already have about you. In addition, depending on how you use those features and your settings with the social network or other third-party site, the information you share may be available to others, including your friends and/or the public. For more information about how your information may be shared through those social networks and other third-party sites once it is provided to them, you should review the privacy policies of those social networks and other third party sites.

 

 

How We Hold Your Personal Information and Our Security Measures.

We use a variety of industry-standard security measures to maintain the safety of your Personal Information, including measures designed to secure your Personal Information from accidental loss and from unauthorised access, use, alteration and disclosure. We store the Personal Information you provide on secure (password- and firewall-protected) servers.

 

Unfortunately, no electronic data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we believe that we use reasonable measures to protect Personal Information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information transmitted or otherwise provided to us or received from us.

 

If any portion of a Site allows you to create an account, it will be your responsibility to keep your account and password confidential. We will never ask for your password (except, if applicable, when you create your account and log into the Site).
