permissions that the Application seeks before you first use the app, and your use of the application

collect on servers in electronic databases which may be located overseas and managed by our related entities
and/or service providers.

information about you that we collect. The Personal Information and associated data stored on servers is

information requests in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles. We deal with all requests for
information as quickly as possible. Requests for a significant amount of personal information, or information
that is not currently in use, may require further time before a response can be given. We may charge you a fee
for access if a cost is incurred by us in order to retrieve your data, but in no case will we charge you a fee for
your application for access.
In some cases, we may refuse to give you access to data that we hold about you. This may include
circumstances where giving you access would:
• be unlawful (eg, where a record that contains data about you is subject to a claim for the legal
professional privilege by one of our contractual counterparties);
• have an unreasonable impact on another person’s privacy; or
• prejudice an investigation of unlawful activity.
• We may also refuse access where the data relates to existing or anticipated legal proceedings, and the
information would not be accessible by the process of discovery in those proceedings.
If we refuse to give you access, we will provide you with reasons for our refusal.

o Stop unauthorised transfers of your data to a third party;
o In some circumstances, have that information transferred to another organisation; and

• Where we rely upon your consent as our legal basis for collecting and processing your data, you may
withdraw that consent at any time.
• If you object to the processing of your data, or if you have provided your consent to the processing and
you later choose to withdraw it, we will respect that choice in accordance with our legal obligations.

• Such objection or withdrawal of consent could mean that we are unable to provide our services to you,
and could unduly prevent us from legitimately providing our services to other customers/clients’
subject to appropriate confidentiality protections; and
• Even after you have chosen to withdraw your consent, we may be able to continue to keep and process
your data to the extent required or otherwise permitted by law, in particular:
• To pursue our legitimate interests in a way that might reasonably be expected as part of running our
business and which does not materially impact on your rights, freedoms or interests; and
• In exercising and defending our legal rights and meeting our legal and regulatory obligations.

satisfying any legal, accounting or reporting requirements. At the end of any retention period, your data will
either be deleted completely or anonymised (for example, by aggregation with other data so that it can be
used in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis and business planning). In some circumstances, you can
ask us to delete your data.
