  • Business details (if applicable);

  • To comply with legal obligations, court orders, or government requests;

  • With your consent, or as otherwise required by law.

b) If you believe any information is incorrect, outdated, or incomplete, please contact us, and we will take reasonable steps to correct it.

9. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
a) We may, but likely won't, update this Privacy Policy from time to time.

Changes will be posted on our website, and continued use of our services constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

11. GPS LOCATION SERVICES

RPCs’ equipment, vehicles and tools (Equipment) may contain
on-board devices (such as a GPS Device) which enable the Equipment to be connected to the internet and to send commands to and receive certain information from the Equipment, including geolocation data from a global positioning system and other data including but not limited to speed, battery voltage and ignition status of such Equipment.

By hiring any Equipment from us you expressly agree to RPC using a GPS Device on such Equipment during the rental period, and to us collecting, using and retaining information from the GPS Device, and that RPC is the owner of that data.
Information from the GPS Device may be used:

  • to notify us that the Equipment requires maintenance or servicing;

  • to provide information to the police or other authorities in the event that the Equipment is stolen, is not returned at the end of the hire period or is being used unlawfully;

  • in the event of an accident or incident relating to the Equipment during the hire period, e.g. to verify the location of the Equipment at the time of the alleged accident or incident;

  • to identify the exact location of the Equipment in the event of a reported breakdown and to provide that location to breakdown responders;

  • to identify whether the Equipment is being used in an area prohibited under the hire contract conditions or in a manner that does not comply with manufacturer’s specifications or the terms of hire; and

  • for any other purpose permitted under the Privacy Act or any other law.
