Purpose

UMNO is a digital platform where restaurants can post their daily specials to attract diners and minimize instances of food waste. This privacy policy fully outlines the ways in which UMNO procures, retains, uses, and discloses both personal and business information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).
We reserve the right to revise this Privacy Policy. Updated versions will appear on our website with the Effective Date noted.

Disclosure of personal information.

We may share information with:

• Successors in case of business sale or merger (subject to privacy obligations)

We do not sell or rent your information to unrelated third parties.

Overseas Disclosure & Data Storage

The information being passed may be stored, retained, or processed outside Australia (e.g., in servers located in the United States or Philippines). Steps are taken so that, as far as reasonably can be expected, all overseas recipients comply with these APPs and relevant standards of security once we have disclosed your information to them.

Data Security

We employ administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your data, such as:

• Secure cloud storage and encrypted transmissions
• Restricted access controls
• Regular security testing

Despite these efforts, no system is entirely immune—information transmitted online is at users’ own risk.

Access & Correction

Clients are permitted to access or correct their private or commercial information. For any changes to be effective, a verification of identity may be required.
We rely on you to provide correct and current information.

Complaints and Disputes

Should any question arise on how we handle your information, please contact our Privacy Officer. If you remain unsatisfied with our response, you may bring your complaint before the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).
