If we ask you to provide information that personally identifies you, our request to do so will be specific. If you register to purchase items from our website, we will ask for personal information such as your name, e-mail address, postal address, phone number or credit card information. If we want you to provide additional information, we will explain why we need the additional information and how it will be used at the time of the request.

Website Usage Information: Our web server automatically collects and aggregates information about your visit to www.hmpartners.com.au, including your IP address, service provider, browser type, domain names of referring websites, operating system, pages accessed on our website, and the date and time of your access.

Tracking Cookies: A cookie is a small text file containing a unique identifier that is placed on your computer's hard drive when you visit a website. We use session-based and persistent first-party cookies to improve your access and ease of use of our website. The non-personal information collected from our use of first-party cookies is not linked to your personal information. Cookies do not damage your system or files in any way.

We keep the personal information collected through our website as long as it is required to service your request, or until you request its deletion. We retain aggregated information collected about your visit to our website (i.e., browser type, domain name, pages visited) until we have completed our review and analysis of this information.
