Personal information provided to First Light may be shared with related companies within First Light, where it will be kept strictly confidential and will only be disclosed on a need to know basis.

First Light will use and disclose your personal information for the purpose for which the personal information was initially collected.

First Light may also use that personal information for a purpose related to the initial purpose of collection if that other purpose would be within your reasonable expectations. Related purposes might include internal auditing and administration, adding your name to a contact list, guest list or invitation list or helping us to identify production and broadcast business activities or investment opportunities which may be of benefit or interest to you.

First Light will not use or disclose your personal information for any other purposes without first obtaining your express or implied consent. First Light may however be required to disclose your personal information without your consent if the disclosure is:

• required or authorised by law;
• required in order to investigate an unlawful activity;
• required by an enforcement body for investigative activities; or
• necessary to prevent a serious and imminent threat to a person’s life, health or safety, or to public health or safety

Generally, First Light will retain your personal information within Australia and not use or disclose it overseas. However, on some occasions the information may need to be transferred overseas in order to perform one of First Light’s functions or activities. In these circumstances, First Light will either obtain your express or implied consent or will take such steps as a reasonable to ensure that your personal information will receive protection similar to that which it would have if the information were in Australia.

Like most business organisations, First Light relies on third party suppliers who are contracted to conduct specialised activities such as insurance broking, supply of equipment, business services, security services and travel and hospitality services. While personal information may be provided to these suppliers in order to enable them to perform the agreed tasks, First Light will make every effort to ensure that the supplier handles the personal information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles and confidentiality principles. First Light will require all such suppliers to provide privacy undertakings and where necessary enter confidentiality agreements.

First Light may also need to provide your personal information to third parties where:

• First Light are (in limited circumstances) allowed or required to by law or where they have a public duty to do so. For example, a Court, a regulator (such as the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) or the Australian Tax Office (ATO) or the police can compel the disclosure of personal information; or
• You have expressly consented to your personal information being supplied to others. Usually such consent will be required in writing, however, in special circumstances you may be able to provide consent verbally; or
• It can be reasonably inferred from the circumstance that you consent to your personal information being disclosed. For example your consent will be implied for First Light to use and disclosure your information to inform you of products and services that First Light believes may interest you. However your implied consent may be withdrawn at any time.

We may sometimes have to transfer your personal information overseas, including but not limited to recipients located in the United States of America or the United Kingdom. We will only do so in accordance with the Australia Privacy Principles and Australian privacy law in general.
