Inapari Alpacas Privacy Policy
Inapari Alpacas is committed to protecting your privacy while you interact with our content, our products and our on-line services. We provide a safe and secure environment for you and your children to investigate the ‘world of alpacas’.
Use of any anonymous information
Inapari Alpacas automatically gathers anonymous information to monitor the use of our on-line site. So the numbers and frequency of visitors to our web site and its various linked areas are recorded. We use this data in an aggregated form to monitor the use of the different areas of our site. It also helps us improve the site to best provide the service to the most numbers of viewers.
These days many children are interested in alpacas, their history in Australia and their care. We thus want to provide the best educational experience as possible to children and teachers, or those people considering entering the industry who may feel intimidated about taking on a new venture. We encourage you to participate in our on-line experience with your children as an aid for school projects.
Use of your personal information
Inapari Alpacas will only use the personal information you have chosen to provide to us for the purpose for which you provided it.
Inapari Alpacas will not use personal information for any other purpose without your consent.
What information do we gather
This Privacy Policy outlines the kind of information we may gather about you when you visit our site or use our on-line shop, how we use that information, whether we disclose it to anyone, and the choices you have regarding our use of, and your ability to correct, this information. Our policy allows you to choose how much information you provide to us and to control how we use whatever information you provide for us. Our goal is to provide you with a satisfying experience while allowing you to control your privacy and to give you a means of voicing any questions or concerns you may have.
This policy applies only to Inapari Alpacas and not to any other companies' or organisations' websites to which Inapari Alpacas is linked.
Please note that the Inapari Alpacas Shop has additional information about how it deals with privacy and personal information you provide when dealing with our on-line shop.
Collection of information
Information is collected from you to make it easier and more rewarding for you to use our services. Depending on the service you wish to use you may be asked to provide information such as your name, your email address or information about what you like and do not like about the site. It is entirely your choice whether to respond to these questions or not. In all cases we teat the information you provide confidentially and under no circumstances will this information be passed on to a third party.
Inapari Alpacas collects two types of information. The first type is anonymous information which we use to help improve the web site and to keep track of the number of visitors to the site. For instance, we collect information about how many visitors read this Privacy Policy in the last month, but we do not know their names, where they live or their date of birth. Therefore, they are effectively 'anonymous' to us. From time to time we may run a survey on-line at this site where the audience is invited to respond to a survey. The survey may ask for demographic information such as your age, gender and location postcode. The information is collected for research purposes again helping either to improve the web-site or to undertake an anonymous research project for the alpaca industry. Many of the people who access our on-line services are anonymous to us.
The second type of information we collect is personal information. We collect personal information that lets us know the specifics of who you are, such as your name, email address, or postal address. When you choose to provide this information we, in turn, can provide a range of personalised services that are not available to anonymous users. We hope that you will find it beneficial to provide individually identifiable information about yourself to us because it will make our services more valuable to you. However, when we collect personal information, that information is treated with respect and confidentiality and
it will not be passed on to any third party.
In order to provide some specific personal service to you we may specifically ask for personal information about you when you sign up to use one of our services. For example, your name, age, internet address or screen name, billing address, type of credit card and the card number may be needed, in order to provide that service or product to you. This information may also inform you of additional products and services which may be of interest you. You can choose not to receive such information when you are undertaking product or service registration on our website. We may also ask about your interests to help us to select services for you , but it is your choice whether to provide the information or request the service.
How much of your personal information you choose to disclose to Inapari Alpacas is up to you. The only way we know something about you personally is if you provide it to us. For example, if you take part in a discussion forum or enter a competitions on our websites then you elect to provide information to us.

Disclosure of Personal Information
There will be occasions where it will be necessary for the Inapari Alpacas to disclose your personal information to third parties. We may be required by law to disclose the information, or Inapari Alpacas may be required to disclose your personal information to third parties to provide the service you have requested. For example, if you purchase products online from the Inapari Alpacas Shop, then we will need to disclose your personal information to third parties in order to bill and deliver your products. However, the disclosure will only be made where it is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which you disclosed your personal information. We will not disclose personal information that you may give us, such as your name, address, email address or telephone number, to any person or organisation outside of Inapari Alpacas unless you authorise us to do so.

Interacting with Inapari Alpacas
There may be interactive features on our web site at Inapari Alpacas that you can contribute to. These may include: Guestbooks, Forums, Event Diaries, Reviews, Online Voting, Event bookings, Mailing Lists and Email.
When providing information to Inapari Alpacas, we ask that you use your discretion and exercise due caution when providing your personal information.
Note that if you post personal information in publicly accessible places, such as on a message board, or a survey this information becomes available to anyone with access to the internet. This information could then be collected and used by others. If you post personal information that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. We recommend that you refrain from posting any information that you do not want seen in such public areas of our site. For example, when participating in an Inapari survey on-line, or a guest book, your name will appear on the message board. A solution to this problem is to register in any public area with a pen name you select which is not your real name. Under no circumstances should you use the name of another living person.
