Privacy Policy
This statement sets out our policies relating to the privacy of your personal information:

Briefly, this web site is operated in compliance with the Australian Government's Information Privacy Principles which are outlined at www.privacy.gov.au and we try to comply with these principles at all times.

  1. Our web site collects the following information from our online visitors: a record of each visit that logs a visitor's IP address, the date and time of their visit, the pages accessed and/or documents downloaded, their country of origin and the type of browser used (ie exactly the same type of information routinely collected by all web servers around the world). No attempt is or will be made to identify individual users or their browsing activities except in the unlikely event of an investigation where a law enforcement agency exercises a warrant to inspect our service provider's logs. We analyse the information collected by our web server at the end of each month purely to determine our web site's overall usage statistics.

  2. We retain the e-mail addresses of people who send emails to us through this web site for the simple purpose of sending them a response. These email addresses are stored in a secure area of our office network (ie not on the website) and are not used for any other purpose. Nor will they be disclosed to any third party without the consent of the person who originally emailed us.

  3. People who submit email addresses, web sites or other information for linking on this web site are agreeing to have them published on our web site by doing so. We will, however, remove or modify any submitted email address, web site URL or other supplied information on request.

Visitors should also note that this web site contains links to a number of other web sites that are included on the basis of containing content related to our own site's operations and/or as a service to our online visitors. When you click on a link to go to another site, you leave our own web site and are no longer protected by our Privacy Policy.

Information submitted to South Burnett.Health via our service registration form, email or other means will be placed on our website in the relevant category/categories as judged by us to be appropriate. By submitting a registration form, emailing us or contacting us by other means you consent to the publication of your information on our website.

South Burnett Health has no control over the subsequent use or disclosure of this information once it has been published on the web. Our website also contains information already in the public domain.

If you wish to have your information removed or amended in any way, please contact us - either by phoning us on (07) 4162-3899 during business hours or by email.

This privacy statement is periodically reviewed in line with the ongoing development of our web site and/or changes to Australian privacy laws.

 

Anti-Spam Policy
This statement sets out our policies relating to spam (ie unsolicited commercial email):

Our web site is operated in compliance with the Australian Spam Act 2003, which may be viewed online at a variety of locations.

In a nutshell, we don't send out any spam emails. Nor do we do business with any individual or company who does. And we encourage all our visitors to do likewise.

We also use anti-spam filtering on our emails and we report any Australian who spams us to the proper authorities on receipt of their spam. Again, we encourage our visitors to do likewise in countries which have equivalent legislation to Australia. Or to request their legislators enact similar laws in countries which don't yet have anti-spam legislation; or to toughen existing laws up to Australian anti-spam standards where those laws are weak.

History
South Burnett Health grew from data that was originally collected by the Southern Queensland Rural Division of General Practice in early 2007.

This organisation believed that easy public access to up-to-date information about all the health services that were available in the South Burnett via the Internet was a worthwhile goal which would help many people in the region. And the South Burnett Online network agreed.

In general - for a variety of reasons - most Australian health systems have been very backward in the adoption of the Internet. And (in particular) providing simple, easily-accessible information about basic health services to the public (eg: the contact details for local GPs, hospitals and other services) is one area where all levels of Government have failed badly.

South Burnett Health was designed to address this, and the first version of this website appeared online in 2007 and ran through until early 2009 when the SQRDGP changed to RHealth and also changed their direction.

However a second version of the site was relaunched in November 2010 using the South Burnett Online network's central databases to remove data redundancy and eliminate the need for medical professionals or health service providers to list (or update) their details on our network more than once.

This is the version of the site you're viewing now.
