We may disclose your personal information to our service entities and contract out some of our functions to external service providers (such as mailing houses, agencies, contractors, marketing service providers and event coordinators). We may disclose your personal information to these external service providers but only so that they can provide the services that we have contracted out to them.

Data Quality

NJ Phillips will take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information it collects, uses or discloses is accurate, complete and up to date.

Please contact us whenever your personal information changes or if you become aware that our records are incorrect. By contacting us, we can take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is correct before we use or disclose it again.

Data Security

At NJ Phillips, we take security very seriously. We take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is safe from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

When your personal information is no longer required for us to undertake the functions for which it was provided (for example, your warranty period has expired and you have informed us that you do not wish to receive any future marketing communication from us), NJ Phillips will destroy or permanently de-identify that personal information.

Openness

NJ Phillips is open about how we handle your personal information. Our Privacy Policy clearly expresses our policy on how we manage personal information.
