42. Usually we will be able to provide you with access to your personal information upon receipt of your written request, by email sent to marketing@stylecraft.com.au, and confirmation of your identity. There are some limited circumstances in which we may not be able to provide you with access to your personal information when requested. Such circumstances might include where access would pose a serious threat to the life, health or safety of another person or where such access would unreasonably impact on the privacy of others.
43. Where you request access to your personal information, we will respond to any such request in accordance with the Act.
44. We may recover from you our reasonable costs of supplying you with access to your personal information but we will not charge you for any request you might make to access your information.
