By providing personal information to the Company and having access to this Policy, either directly or through a business partner or service provider who sells the Products, an individual consents to the Company collecting, holding, using and disclosing personal information in accordance with this Policy.

The Company collects the personal information of individuals directly from those individuals when selling Products to those individuals, as well as from business partners or service providers who sell or who are involved with selling the Products.
The Company also collects personal information directly from an individual when the individual makes an inquiry about a Product.
Personal information received by the Company is held electronically on the information technology systems of the Company and may only be accessed by its authorised employees and contractors who require access in connection with the purposes described in this Policy.
Some personal information is held by the Company's contracted claims administrator in hard copy such as files created when a claim or complaint is made, which are accessible to the claims and complaint handling employees of the claims administrator, their managers and the organisation which is contracted by the Company to store and secure that information. Other hard copy personal information may be held for internal Company purposes and administration of the Company's business.

Personal information will be collected, held, used and disclosed for the purposes of: providing the Product for an individual; handling inquiries about the Product; security checks to verify the identity of an individual; administering the information technology systems used by the Company; as required by law or a court or tribunal order; and any related, secondary or ancillary purposes.
The Company will hold personal information for as long as necessary in order to meet the purposes described in this Policy and as required by law. For example, personal information in connection with Products will be held for the life of the Product which includes the period when claims may be notified or made after the Product expires.
The Company may disclose personal information to its business partners and third party service providers including the claims administrator to perform activities in connection with the purposes described in this Policy.
An individual will need to ensure that the personal information which is provided is accurate, complete and up-to-date at the time it is provided and must notify the Company of any changes.

An individual may see and have a copy of their personal information that the Company holds.
If an individual is able to establish that their personal information is not accurate, complete and up-to-date, then on request the Company will take reasonable steps to correct it.
If the Company is unable to agree whether personal information is accurate, complete or up-to-date, then an individual may ask the Company to place with the information a statement claiming that particular information is not accurate, complete or up-to-date.
