Please read this Privacy Statement carefully to understand how your personal information will be treated by Inspire. By using this web site, you consent to the uses mentioned.

Collection and Use of Personal Information
You can browse this web site without telling us who you are or revealing any information that personally identifies you ("Personal Information"). When you submit a question to the Dalai Lama through this web site, however, we may request Personal Information such as your name, date of birth, e-mail address, gender and location.

Inspire does not collect information about anyone's ethnic origins, political or religious beliefs, sexual preferences or criminal record.

Inspire will use the Personal Information you give us to provide you with information about the event, to contact you if you are chosen to meet the Dalai Lama in person and to reply to your enquiries and requests for information. We may also use this information to provide you with updated information on new projects commenced by Inspire, to alert you to special events organised by Inspire and to conduct research, surveys or engage in other marketing purposes.

If you do not wish for Inspire to use your Personal Information for these purposes, please let us know by sending an email to conversations@inspire.org.au

Collection and Use of Non-Personal Information
This web site uses cookies to keep track of your visits and provide personalised features (such as your preferred style settings). Cookies do not identify individual users but they do identify your browser type and your internet service provider. Inspire collects this information on an aggregate basis and for usage statistics only.

Exceptional Circumstances
Inspire may disclose Personal Information when required or authorised to do so by law or when such action is necessary or appropriate (for example, if Inspire reasonably believes that someone is in imminent danger of serious harm). In these exceptional circumstances, we reserve the right to disclose Personal Information to the appropriate authority at our discretion and without your consent.

Protection of Personal Information
Inspire takes reasonable steps to protect your Personal Information from loss, misuse or alteration. As an additional safeguard, access to Personal Information is restricted only to the management and authorised employees of Inspire carrying out permitted business functions.
