Disclosure to Overseas Recipients

Some of the third parties we use to assist us in providing our services or operating our business may be located outside Australia or may store or process information outside Australia.

As a result, personal information we collect may be disclosed to, or handled by, overseas recipients in certain circumstances.

The countries in which overseas recipients may be located will depend on the service providers and technology platforms we use from time to time. Where practicable, we will identify the relevant countries in accordance with our obligations under the Privacy Act and the Australian Privacy Principles.

Where we disclose personal information to an overseas recipient, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that the information is handled in accordance with applicable privacy requirements.

However, if you do not provide information that we reasonably require, we may be unable to respond to your enquiry, assess your circumstances or provide or arrange the services you have requested.
