Personal information is defined as information about an individual whose identity is apparent or can reasonably be ascertained by the information.
No personal information is collected automatically through this site. All personal information collected and/or stored must be voluntarily provided by you, eg. through online forms and email for specific service delivery purposes.
Personal information about you will only be collected when you voluntarily participate in an activity that asks for information, such as:

- participating in a survey;
- registering to download an ACT Government tender or business opportunity;
- registering to be notified of future ACT Government tenders and business opportunities; and
- registering to become a prequalified supplier.
If you choose not to provide personal information when completing one or more of these activities, you may not be able to complete that activity. If you choose not to participate in these activities, your choice will in no way affect your ability to browse this website.
You may recommend changes to your personal information that you believe to be incorrect. The obligation to correct information is subject to any applicable limitation in a law that provides a right to require the collection or amendment of documents.
It is in the interest of users to register their details correctly, particularly relating to the Tender Download and Tender Notification facilities. These registered details are often used in notifying potential tenderers of any extension to the tender period, changes to the tender process, the issuing of addenda and/or notifying registered suppliers of new and current tenders / business opportunities.
The Territory will treat any information provided by a user within the terms of its relevant privacy responsibilities.
The Territory maintains appropriate safeguards to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of personally identifiable information submitted to this site and periodically reviews and updates security measures in line with current technology.

- is necessary to provide you with a service that you have requested;
- is required or authorised by law;
- is reasonably necessary for law enforcement in certain situations and for the protection of public revenue; or
- will prevent or lessen a serious and imminent threat to somebody’s health.
