Information that we collect

We collect personal information (such as your name, contact details, your university and major) that you choose to give us by completing a form on our website or as part of entering a draw for a prize at an event or expo.

You may request to have this information removed from our database by using the Unsubscribe link in any of the subsequent communications you receive from us, or by emailing opportunity@psc.wa.gov.au.

How we collect this information

We will always ask you for this information and be clear as to what we plan to do with it. Providing us with the requested information is voluntary.

If you choose to provide your information, you will normally complete an online form. The form is a function of the Vision6 email marketing platform. Vision6 is an Australian company and your data is stored on their Australian based servers.

You may also choose to have a staff member of the Public Sector Commission to submit your information on your behalf, which would result in it being stored in Vision6 in the same way.

Use and disclosure

The personal information you provide us through Vision6 will be used only for the following purposes:

  • To send you information and stories (such as a video or social media post) about people currently working in the WA public sector
  • To send you information describing the benefits and other aspects of WA public sector jobs and careers
  • To notify you when different WA public sector jobs programs open for applications
  • To notify you when the Public Sector Commission or other public sector agency is exhibiting at an event or expo

Your personal information will at all times be dealt with in accordance with the applicable legislation in Western Australia and consistent with any legal obligation (including the State Records Act 2000).

We will not provide your information to any other organisation or individual unless:

  • where required or permitted by a law of Western Australia (for example under the Freedom of Information Act 1992)
  • if we are required by law to do so (for example by a court or tribunal order, or a law of the Commonwealth).
