We are committed to protecting your privacy and we comply with the data protection laws applicable to Australia. This Privacy Policy outlines how your personal information is treated.

What information do we collect?

When you request more information from a company that appears on our site, you are asked to fill out a registration form. The details submitted in this form will be stored on MFV Expo’s server in the USA and you will become a registered user of FranchiseExpo Australia.

How do we use your information?

When you click to request more information from a company (or similar wording) we will pass your registered details on to that company. This allows the company to contact you in order to pursue your interest in that company. We use the information collected from you to improve the service we offer on our website and use aggregated statistics to help companies to improve the effectiveness of their page(s) on our site.

We have a very strict privacy policy:

1. We will never sell your details to any unsolicited third party (only companies that you actively request more information from will receive your details)
2. We will only email you our monthly newsletter if you opt in (by ticking the relevant box at the time of registration) and only until you decide to opt out by changing your preferences (details of how to do this are in every email sent)
3. We will send you information about franchises that match your profile if, and only if, you opt in to receive such information and only until you decide to opt out.
4. We will occasionally send you information about franchise events, upcoming exhibitions, special offers on publications and other franchise related subjects if, and only if, you opt in to receive such information and only until you decide to opt out.
5. We will NEVER SELL YOUR DETAILS to any third party. If a third party wishes to communicate with you they send us the message and we send it on to you, thereby never releasing your details from our system and ensuring the maximum possible privacy for your personal information.

We may use your personal information in aggregate (and therefore anonymously) for market research purposes, to track activity on our site, to publish trends and/or to improve usefulness and content.

I would like to reiterate - we will never sell, trade or rent your personal information with any third parties. Compare this to the privacy policy of other franchise sites!

We follow strict security procedures in the storage and disclosure of information that you have given us, to prevent unauthorised access and to maintain the security and integrity of all data related to FranchiseExpo Australia.
