SPECIAL CONDITION: COVID-19 CONTACT TRACING‍

You acknowledge that there is currently a respiratory illness outbreak caused by a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) that is impacting various regions globally. Different States and Territories around Australia are managing the ongoing risks of COVID-19 by requiring businesses to collect Personal Information about their customers for the purpose of “contact tracing”. Contact tracing is the process of identifying people who may have come into contact with a positive case of COVID-19, and assists authorities with taking measures to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 (such as issuing directions to identified persons to get tested and/or self-isolate).

As a condition of entry into the our festivals and events, we may collect the following information from you in accordance with any applicable in force government direction or order for the purpose of contact tracing:

Your full legal name;
Your contact details (e.g. phone number and/or email address);
Your postcode.

We may also require you to provide confirmation that:

you do not have COVID-19, and are not awaiting test results for COVID-19 or otherwise have reason to suspect that you have contracted COVID-19;
you have not knowingly been in contact with a person who has tested positive for COVID-19 in the last fourteen (14) days;
you have not returned from international travel in the last fourteen (14) days;
you have not visited a COVID-19 ‘hotspot’ (as advertised on the relevant State or Territory’s health department website) in the past fourteen (14) days;
you are not experiencing cold or flu-like symptoms, including:

a cough
fever
shortness of breath
sore throat
sneezing and runny nose
temporary loss of smell.

This information will be collected from you directly, or from a parent or guardian where you are under the age of 18.

A direction or order may provide for the submission of contact tracing information to a government authority directly through an authorised mobile application or web check-in service (“Check-In Tool”). If you choose to use a Check-In Tool, your disclosure of Personal Information will be governed by the terms of the operator responsible for the Check-In Tool. We disclaim all liability in connection with your use of a Check-In Tool. If you have any concerns about the privacy practices of any Check-In Tool operator, we encourage you to reach out to them directly.

We will keep all Personal Information collected for the purpose of contact tracing separate from other data, and will restrict access to such information to our staff on a ‘need-to-know’ basis. We will only disclose Personal Information to relevant health authorities or other persons as required under any applicable direction or order. When we are no longer required to keep such information, we will take reasonable steps to anonymise or otherwise delete such information.

Types of information we collect
‍
“Personal Information” means information that can be used to personally identify you, such as your name, age or date of birth, telephone number, address, email address, photographs or videos where you are personally identifiable, and in some circumstances financial information such as your credit card, direct debit or Paypal account information. If the information we collect personally identifies you or you are reasonably identifiable from it, the information will be considered Personal Information.

“Sensitive Information” is a special type of Personal Information that relates to health information, political beliefs, ethnicity, membership of a professional or trade association, gender, sexual preferences, philosophical beliefs, or criminal record. We will not collect Sensitive Information except with your express consent, and then only if collection of such information is necessary for a particular activity or function.
