  4. In the unlikely event that Digivizer is required to disclose personal information to law enforcement agencies, government agencies or external advisers, Digivizer will only do so in accordance with the Privacy Act or any other relevant Australian legislation.
  5. If a disclosure is not for a primary purpose, is not for a related secondary purpose, or upfront consent has not been obtained, Digivizer will not disclose personal information otherwise than in accordance with the exceptions set out at 3.1 to 3.4 above.
  6. Digivizer does not share its customer lists on a commercial basis with third parties and would only do so if we had the appropriate consent of any individuals involved.
