Your privacy is our policy

At Australian Doctors International we want your on-line experience to be enjoyable and we take care to respect your privacy when you visit our web site.

Generally, we use the information we collect about you for two purposes: to process your donation and to create a better, more personalised experience for you. Our electronic commerce and privacy standards are derived from the world's best business practices and we abide by the following principles:

Information collection & use

• We only collect supporter information that is necessary for what we do. For example, when you donate online, we need to have your name, email address, mailing address, credit card number and expiration date. This enables us to process your donation and to send you a receipt either electronically or through the mail.
• We always tell you who we are and what we intend to do with your information when we receive it. We strive to be open - we will let you know what sort of personal information we hold, how we collect it, how we use and disclose it, if you want to know.
• We also ensure that your personal details are accurate, complete and up-to-date when we use or collect them through our verification process.
• We only collect personal information by lawful and fair means. This means we are never unreasonably intrusive when it comes to dealing with our supporters. From time to time, we may also collect non-personal information from our supporters. This helps us in our ongoing efforts to improve our web site and the on-line experience for our visitors. We also monitor our supporters' usage of our web site to make improvements and provide other items you might want to know about.We respect your preferences.
• We may also use the information we collect to keep you abreast of changes in our web site, to inform you about ADI news items or new services we are offering to the community. If you would rather not receive this information, then please contact us.
• We always provide supporters with an opportunity to opt-out of receiving future information via email. If you don't wish to receive new information, just email us at and we will delete your details from all internal lists. We only use or disclose information about our supporters in ways they would expect. This means we only use information to process your donation or to improve our web site. In terms of disclosure, there is only one instance where your name and address might leave our system. From time to time, we might pass your contact details only to a distribution centre to send information to you. Please be reassured: we take steps to protect our supporters' privacy when we use outside distribution centres. 
• We welcome your questions and comments about privacy.
