Privacy Policy

Preamble

The Assembly of the Uniting Church in Australia (UCA) is the national council of the UCA and operates the Songs that Unite Service. The Privacy Policy of the Songs that Unite Service is the same as the Privacy Policy of the Uniting Church in Australia Assembly.

Purpose and Scope

This privacy policy outlines how personal information is handled and managed; so as to be compliant with the Privacy Amendment (Private Sector) Act No 155 of 2000.

The Primary Privacy Policy

The policy should be read together with the National Privacy Principles (NPPs) set out in the Privacy Act. A copy of the NPPs is available on the Australian Privacy Commissioner's Website. (http://www.privacy.gov.au/).

The Primary Privacy Policy is covered in the following dot-points:

  •  The Assembly will comply with the NPPs. If there is any inconsistency between this policy and the NPPs, then the NPPs prevail;
  • The Service will only use personal information for the primary purpose for which it is collected.
  • The Service will only use personal information about an individual for a secondary purpose (i.e. something beyond the scope of the primary purpose) if that individual has consented or the use is otherwise permitted by the NPPs;
  • The Service will take reasonable steps to keep personal information secure and will, subject to the NPPs, comply with any request from a person to correct or remove his or her information. The Assembly has a Privacy Officer who is responsible for storing, correcting and giving people access to personal information collected about them. The Assembly may charge fees for access to personal information;
  • The operating procedures (whether or not they are formalised in a manual) of the Service will comply with this policy and the NPPs; and
  • The Assembly's Privacy Officer is empowered to receive and deal with any complaint that the Assembly has not complied with this policy or the NPPs.

PACKAGES

WHY

We at Songs that Unite know that ministry dollars need to stretch a long way so you are invited to save up to 30% on the purchase price of the songs that you download by purchasing a package – bronze, silver or gold.

Using a package is also convenient and efficient. With a package you don't need to enter credit card details every time you purchase from the shop and if you are buying on behalf of your church you don't have to keep running back every week with a receipt for one or two songs in order to get your money back.

HOW

When you purchase a package the information about whether it is bronze, silver or gold is stored in your client information. Your unique log in allows the site will know which (if any) package you have purchased and to take it into account when you make a purchase.

The way the package works is that package holders receive a discount off the nominated price of the products in the music shop. Bronze package holders receive a 20% discount; silver 25% and gold 30%. These discounts are calculated in real time and displayed in your shopping cart. When the purchase is confirmed the discounted price is taken from the credit balance that remains on your package.

Package prices are:

Bronze
$100 which allows you to spend the value of your package with a 20% discount applied to the list price of any item.

Silver
$200 which allows you to spend the value of your package with a 25% discount applied to the list price of any item.

Gold
$300 which allows you to spend the value of your package with a 30% discount applied to the list price of any item.

Purchasing a package is simple – just click on the bronze, silver or gold package product button in the shop, go to the checkout and purchase it using an approved credit card. When you need to top up your credit just purchase another package and this amount will be added to your balance.

Please note that you cannot purchase a package and songs in the same transaction. First purchase the package (including renewals) and then enter the shopping process again to purchase your songs.

If you need to top up your funds by purchasing a new package and you decide to change packages then the purchases made with the remaining balance plus the new deposit will all be subject to the same discount provisions of the last package that you purchased. For example if you have been using the Bronze package and decide that you are buying enough songs to make the Silver package worthwhile and you have $20 left on the Bronze package and top it up with $200 for a Silver package then the whole $220 will receive a 25% discount on subsequent purchases.

Please note that balances in packages are not subject to refund. Account balances must be spent on products available through the Songs That Unite web shop.
