Privacy Policy – LinkedIn Lead Forms
Necessity Housing
Necessity Housing collects, uses and protects personal information submitted through our LinkedIn advertisements, LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms, website forms, emails, phone calls and direct enquiries.
This policy explains how we handle personal information when someone submits their details to enquire about our Specialist Disability Accommodation, disability housing, property information, service partnerships, inspections, referrals or related opportunities.
1. Information we collect
When you submit a LinkedIn Lead Gen Form or contact us after seeing one of our advertisements, we may collect:

- phone number;
- organisation name;
- job title or role;
- suburb, state or location;
- enquiry details;
- information about the type of property, housing or service you are interested in;
- any other information you choose to provide.
We do not require you to provide sensitive personal information through a LinkedIn form. If you voluntarily provide information about disability, support needs, NDIS funding, health, accommodation requirements or a participant’s circumstances, we will only use that information for the purpose of responding to your enquiry and helping determine whether our housing options may be suitable.

LinkedIn may pre-fill some form fields using information from your LinkedIn profile. LinkedIn’s collection and handling of your information is governed by LinkedIn’s own privacy policy.
