Personal Information Personal information is information about you whether fact or opinion from which your identity could reasonably be ascertained. Use and Disclosure of Personal Information Seaton Training requests you to provide personal information for the purpose of allowing Seaton Training to provide recreational boat operator training and assessment services to you and for the Director, Transport Safety to manage or administer accredited training providers and undertake the functions relating to Marine Licences, or as required by law in regard to the Director’s statutory obligations.
 
Seaton Training is required to protect and handle your personal information in accordance with the Privacy and Data Protection Act 2014 (Vic).
 
Personal information that is collected by Seaton Training may also be used and disclosed to government agencies, departments and organisations (for example, Transport Safety Victoria or VicRoads), and to contractors whose duties require them to use it, in connection with managing or administering accredited training providers and undertaking functions relating to recreational boat operator licenses.  Such agencies, departments and organisations are required to protect and handle your personal information in accordance with the Privacy and Data Protection Act 2014 (Vic) or interstate privacy legislation.
 
Your personal information will not be used for training other persons.  All persons and companies referred to in any examples in training materials provided by your accredited training provider are purely fictitious and any resemblance to existing persons or companies is purely coincidental.
