THE PURPOSES FOR WHICH WE COLLECT, HOLD, USE AND DISCLOSE PERSONAL INFORMATION
Twin Towns Clubs & Resorts will collect your personal information in order to provide you with, or give you access to, a particular Twin Towns Clubs & Resorts product or service.

- When it is disclosed or used for a purpose related to the primary purpose of collection detailed and you would reasonably expect your personal information to be used or disclosed for such purposes.
- To relevant authorities if it reasonably believes that there is a threat to an individual's life, health or safety, or public health or safety; or
- If we have reason to suspect that unlawful activity has been or is being, engaged in; or

DATA BREACH RESPONSE PLAN
Twin Towns Clubs & Resorts (TTG) is committed to managing personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (the Act) and the TTG Privacy Policy.
The purpose of the Data Breach Response Plan is to set out procedures and lines of authority in the event that TTG experiences a data breach (or suspects that a data breach has occurred). The Plan is intended to enable TTG to contain, assess and respond to data breaches in a timely fashion and to mitigate potential harm to affected individuals.
The Privacy Amendment (Notifiable Data Breaches) Act 2017 (NDB Act) established a Notifiable Data Breaches (NDB) scheme requiring organisations covered by the Act to notify any individuals likely to be at risk of serious harm by a data breach. The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) must also be notified.
Accordingly, TTG needs to be prepared to act quickly in the event of a data breach (or suspected breach) and determine whether it is likely to result in serious harm and whether it constitutes an NDB.
Adherence to the Procedure and Response Plan will ensure that TTG can contain, assess and respond to data breaches expeditiously and mitigate potential harm to the person(s) affected.
The Procedure and Response Plan has been informed by:
- The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner's "Guide to developing a data breach response plan."
- The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner's "Data breach notification guide: a guide to handling personal information security breaches."
- NDB Act.
- The Act and Australian Privacy Principles (Schedule 1 of the Act).
