2. What is personal information? 

2.1 Personal information is information or an opinion about you from which you can be reasonably identified.

3. Why does the Group collect personal information? 

3.1 The Group collects personal information so that it can administer your investment in the Company, provide facilities and services that you request and comply with its legal obligations.  If the Company or Group does not collect your personal information, it may not be able to provide you with these services.

4. What personal information does the Group collect?

4.1 In the course of administering your investment and providing you with associated products and services the Company and Group may collect and hold the following personal information about you:

  1. your name;
  2. address and other contact details;
  3. date of birth; 
  4. tax file number (TFN); and 
  5. banking details.

4.2 Generally, the Group will not collect sensitive information about you (such as your race or ethnic origin, political beliefs or religion).  If the Group needs sensitive information, it will ask your consent when it collects this information and comply with the Australian Privacy Principles contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

5. How does the Group collect your personal information?

Collecting information from you 

5.1 How the Group collects your personal information will largely depend on whose information it is collecting.  If it is reasonable and practicable to do so, the Group will collect personal information directly from you. 

5.2 Depending on how you choose to interact with the Group, the Group may collect your personal information when you contact the Group or its service providers by telephone, by email, through the Group’s websites or when you complete a form or document and provide it to the Group.  

Collecting information from third parties

5.3 The Group may also collect information about you from other people (e.g. a third party administrator) or independent sources. For example, the Group may collect personal information about you from its services providers, including the Company’s share registry (Automic Group).  However, the Group will only do so where it is not reasonable and practicable to collect the information from you directly. Where the Group has collected your information from a third party, such personal information will be held, used and disclosed by the Group in accordance with this Privacy Policy. 

5.4. When you provide the Group with personal information you consent to the use, disclosure and handling of your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and any subsequent amendments. 

Collecting information from visits to the Group’s websites

5.5 The Company and Group may collect information based on how you use their websites including through ‘cookies’, web beacons and other similar technologies.  Cookies are small text files that websites or apps may place on your computer or device and collect non identified/anonymous information about the users of its website such as the number of visitors, the number of pages viewed and the internet advertisements which bring visitors to the website.  

5.6 The Group uses cookies to provide you with a more consistent experience across our services and reserves the right to ask advertisers or other partners to serve ads or services to your devices, which may use cookies or similar technologies placed by us or the third party.  This information is collected to analyse and improve the Group’s websites, its marketing campaigns and to record statistics on web traffic. 

5.7 No attempt is made by the Group to use this information to personally identify you.  We record a variety of information from interactions with our online services including IP address, locations data (where available and not disabled by the user), dates, times, and other user activity.  In most cases we will not be able to reasonably identify an individual from the information collected.  However, if cookie information is linked with personal information we hold about you as set out above, this cookie information becomes personal information and will be treated in the same manner as the personal information to which it has been linked.

5.8 You can remove or reject cookies by adjusting the settings on your web browser.

Unsolicited information

5.9 If the Group receives personal information that it has not requested, or it determines that the personal information received is not reasonably necessary to provide its services, the Group will take reasonable steps to de-identify or destroy that personal information.
