What we collect and why

We collect personal and sensitive information (including health and disability information) to deliver NDIS supports, roster and pay workers, meet Practice Standards and worker-screening duties, manage incidents and complaints, and meet legal duties. We collect only what we need.

How we use and disclose it

We use information for the purpose we collected it, a related purpose you would reasonably expect, with consent, or where a law requires or authorises it. Usual recipients include treating practitioners you have authorised, the NDIA, the NDIS Commission, worker-screening agencies, insurers, auditors, and a court if required. We do not sell personal information.

Systems we use

We use VisualCare for care records, Microsoft 365 for email and files, Xero for accounts, Twilio for SMS, WordPress for this website, and rostering and notes software we operate. Our main phone line, (07) 3899 1759, runs on Cadiz3 (ECN Group). Calls to it are recorded and transcribed, and Cadiz3 keeps its recordings for 90 days unless we need one as part of a record. It puts every call through to our rostering line, 0468 032 653, which runs on Twilio. Calls to the rostering line are recorded and transcribed. If no one from our rostering team can take the call, you can leave a message, which is recorded and transcribed for the team. At times an AI assistant built on ElevenLabs answers instead, notes what the call is about and passes it to the team. A person makes every rostering decision. Texts, recordings and transcripts from the line are kept with our rostering records. We name those systems because we use them. Some of these providers, including Twilio and ElevenLabs, are based overseas, so we are likely to disclose some personal information to recipients outside Australia. This public statement does not list overseas countries of storage. We will add that list only when every relevant processor location has been verified.

How we contact you

We contact you on numbers and addresses we already hold, from a Parcare number or a @parcaresupports.com email, and we name the person calling. We do not ask for passwords, PINs, one-time codes, full NDIS numbers or bank details in a first contact. Check any message at How we contact you.

Access, correction and complaints

You can ask to see or correct information we hold. Write to the Director at privacy@parcaresupports.com. You can complain to us first at parcarelifestyle.com/complaint. You can also complain to the OAIC (1300 363 992, oaic.gov.au) without finishing our process, or to the NDIS Commission (1800 035 544) about NDIS services. A complaint does not change your supports. TIS 131 450. NRS 133 677.

What Our Clients Say

Hello my name is James Hart so just excuse my gmail account “name”. Ive been supported by Parcare for about a year and never had any predicaments with them. I have met 9 of the staff members with 2 of them being part of the office side of the business. Every Support Worker/Carer has been absolutely amazing, caring, polite, paying attention and giving me advise, educating me to slowing down and think before saying things, planning out what I want to achieve in my recovery, giving me external views on how I can accomplish it, making sure I am looking after myself and taking care of my son correctly and also just having general conversations with them. Parcare has been absolutely fantastic, they have always been so helpful, always reply to emails, take phone calls and if you cant get onto them please just leave a voice mail and they will get back to you as soon as they can as they are continually providing assistance to everyone and even after hours. I had a physical accident in 2021 and acquired an Extremely Severe Traumatic Brain Injury without Parcare and an Individual Support Worker/Carer Robert I wouldn’t be anywhere close to my current recovery. I couldn’t put down how much effort, help and assistance all of them have given me.

- Ella

Parcare have been absolutely incredible in supporting my daughter. From the very beginning, their passion, energy, and unwavering commitment to providing quality care have been second to none. The entire team operates with professionalism and heart, which has made a world of difference for our family. Their communication has been consistently clear, timely, and thorough keeping us informed and involved every step of the way. This has made the transition process smooth and reassuring for us as parents. Most importantly, my daughter has settled in beautifully thanks to the support she’s received. Her support workers have been exceptional kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in her wellbeing. They’ve taken the time to build a trusting relationship with her, and it’s been incredible to witness her growth and increased confidence. I can’t speak highly enough of Parcare and the work they do. They have created a truly supportive and nurturing environment, and I’m so grateful for the positive impact they’ve had on my daughter’s life.

My daughter has received service from Parcare for around 9 months now and both her and I could not be happier with the service they have provided her to and for her.

Solid service starts from the top and I have found management to be exceptional and supportive. Highly recommended from my daughter and I.
