IMPORTANT NOTICE TO INTENDING PURCHASERS OF NEW VARIETIES
Prior to ordering any variety of fruiting cultivar for commercial purposes you need to know of and accept the following:
- The cultivar that you wish to order may have been obtained from outside Australia and Graham's Factree may not know how it will perform or whether it will succumb to any virus or disease. Graham's Factree makes no representations about these matters.
- The cultivar and the understock on which it has been worked may not have been fully evaluated and consequently Graham's Factree is not able to make any representations about the cultivar and the understock on which it has been worked, its performance, or in relation to any other matter at all.
- You acknowledge that you understand the risk which you take if you purchase a new variety and by placing an order you do so entirely at your own risk.
- Because the cultivar may not have been fully evaluated it may in the future succumb to viruses or disease or understock / scion incompatibility.
- If you purchase the cultivar for use in the course of your business, you are not a consumer for the purposes of Part 5 Division 2 of the Trade Practices Act. In which case you will not be entitled to protection as a consumer under Part 5 of Division 2 of the Trade Practices Act.

How we hold your information
Depending on the circumstances, we may hold your information in either hardcopy or electronic form, or both.
How we use or disclose your information
The use to which we can put personal information depends on the reason for which it was collected. Factree may use personal information for its primary purpose of collection (ie. the supply of goods to the person) or for any related secondary purpose that we could reasonably be expected to use the personal information for.
We use your personal information:
- To provide you with our products and services;
- To administer our customer relationship with you;
- For internal purposes such as procedural assessments, risk management, product and service reviews, staff training, accounting and billing; and
- To identify, and inform you of products and services that may be of interest to you including direct marketing to you.
If you are one of our suppliers, we may use your information to facilitate our business relationship with you, for example, to assess goods or services that you supply.
Generally, we will only use or disclose your personal information for a purpose that is related to the product or service that we are providing to you or that we have previously provided to you. This may include disclosures to organisations that provide us with professional advice and / or services, such as solicitors, accountants and business advisors, associations relative to intellectual property rights protection and to contractors to whom we out-source certain functions, such as mailing houses, electronic network administrators, intellectual property rights protection associates and debt collection agencies. However, where possible, we take contractual measures, and in all other circumstances, take all reasonable measures, with our contractors to ensure that they comply with the privacy standards set out in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). We may also disclose information where it is expressly permitted under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), for example, where it is with your consent or where we are legally required to do so, such as under a court order or taxation laws.
In some instances, Factree may use personal information for promotional or direct marketing purposes. However, a person may at any time request us not to use their personal information for sending direct marketing material to that person. Such a request can be made to Factree in writing, by email or by telephone at the contact details nominated below relative to opting out and / or direct marketing. There is no fee for making such a request.

(i) necessary to protect or enforce any of Factree’s legal rights or interest or to defend any claims;
(ii) necessary to prevent or lessen a serious threat to a person’s health or safety;
(iii) required or authorised by law; or
(iv) permitted by another exception in the Privacy Act.
How we secure your information
Factree respects the privacy of personal information and we will take all reasonable steps to keep it strictly confidential. All stored information is protected from unauthorised access through the use of secure passwords and user log-ons or other security procedures.
Your right to lodge a complaint
If you are not satisfied with how we have handled your personal information, or want to complain that there has been a breach of an Australian Privacy Principle or any APP code which applies you are entitled to lodge a complaint with the Federal Privacy Commissioner. Information regarding how to lodge a complaint is available from the Commissioner’s website at www.oaic.gov.au or by ringing the Commissioner’s information line on 1300 363 992. However, before investigating a complaint, the Commissioner is legally required to be satisfied that you have first expressed your concern to us to afford us an opportunity to resolve the complaint directly, unless it is inappropriate for you to do so. You may lodge a complaint with our Privacy Officer either by mail at Factree Pty Ltd c/- 160 Thonemans Road, Hoddles Creek, Victoria 3139, or by email to [email protected]. We will inform you of who will handle your complaint and you may contact our Privacy Officer to enquire about its stage of progress at any time. We will do our utmost to ensure that your complaint is resolved to your satisfaction.
Your right of access
A person may request access to personal information about them that is held by Factree. Such request must be made in writing to the Privacy Officer either by mail at Factree Pty Ltd c/- 160 Thonemans Road, Hoddles Creek, Victoria 3139, or by email to [email protected].
Our Privacy Officer, once satisfied that your identity is verified, will deal with your request as soon as reasonably possible. Factree may charge a small fee for providing access if it requires a significant amount of time to locate your information or to collate or present it in an appropriate form.
A request to access personal information may be rejected if:
(a) the request is frivolous or vexatious;
(b) providing access would have an unreasonable impact on the privacy of another person;
(c) where it relates to legal proceedings between us through which the information would not otherwise be available and / or providing access would prejudice any of Factree’s legal rights;
(d) where it would be prejudicial to negotiations that Factree may be having with the relevant party / person;
(e) where we are required by law to withhold the information;
(f) where it would reveal information relating to our commercially sensitive decision making processes; or
(g) there are other legal grounds to deny the request.
If we are unable to provide you with access, we will state why this is so and consider whether the use of an intermediary would be appropriate to provide you with an explanation of your personal information.
You may correct your information
If your personal information is inaccurate, out-of-date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading, you may request we correct the information and we will consider your request. In the unlikely event that we disagree about the accuracy of the information and are unable to change it, you may provide us with a statement indicating that you dispute its accuracy and we will associate the statement with your information in such a manner that it will be brought to the attention of each person who uses the information.
