- membership of a political association;

- biometric information that is to be used for the purpose of automated biometric verification or biometric identification; or,

Sensitive information is afforded a higher level of privacy protection than other personal information.

Use of cookies
The Credenxia website uses "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server and subsequently tells the server that you have returned to the page. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. For example, if you personalize Credenxia pages, or register with Credenxia site or services, a cookie helps Credenxia to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies recording your personal information, such as contact details. When you return to the same Credenxia website, the information you provided previously can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Credenxia features that you customised.
You are able to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to experience all the interactive features of the Credenxia services or websites you visit.
How we use your information
We only use your Personal Information for the purpose for which it was provided to us, any related purposes, and as permitted or required by law. Such purposes include:
- Establishing your profile and account on the Site;
- Responding to your enquiries;
- Providing you with our products, our services, and the assistance you request of us;
- Maintaining and administering your account and processing payments you have authorised;
- To better understand our customers' needs and tailor our future products and services accordingly;
- Providing you with marketing information regarding other products and services (of ours or of a third party) which we believe may be of interest to you; or,
- Any other purposes identified at the time of collecting your information.
However, we will only use your sensitive information for the purposes for which it was initially collected or other related purpose or purposes to which you otherwise consent.
How we disclose your information
Where and if appropriate we will disclose your Personal Information to our related entities and third parties who are involved in providing our products and services to you. Some of these parties may be located overseas. We take reasonable care and acceptable steps to ensure that these third parties will not misuse or disclose your Personal Information.
By agreeing to this Privacy Policy you agree to the disclosure of your Personal Information to these entities outside of Australia, and you acknowledge that we are not required to take more than all reasonable steps to ensure the overseas recipient's compliance with all applicable Australian privacy laws in relation to this information and we will not be liable to you for any breach of the Australian privacy law by these overseas recipients and, on this basis, you consent to such disclosure.
We will only disclose your Personal Information for any other purpose with your consent.
Security of your information
We will always continue to take commercially acceptable steps (including those measures required by law) to ensure your personal information is protected from misuse, loss or unauthorised disclosure, use or modification.
We operate from secure premises and maintain high-level technology products to prevent unauthorised access to our computer systems. Our internal security products are regularly reviewed and kept up-to-date.
However, no data protection and security measures are completely secure. Despite all the measures we have put in place, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information, particularly in relation to transmissions over the internet. Accordingly, any information which you transmit to us is transmitted (in any form and by any means) at your own risk. You must also take care to ensure you protect yourself from any potential misuse or unwarranted disclosure of your Personal Information.
We may store some or all of your Personal Information on data storage systems located outside of Australia's borders. We will only do this if the facility has a suitable Privacy Policy, resides in a location with comparable privacy legislation, and has suitable security.
Accuracy, access and correction
We take reasonable steps to ensure all of your Personal Information that we collect and hold is accurate, complete and up to date. However, we rely on you to advise us of any changes to your information or corrections required to the information we hold about you.
Please let us know as soon as possible of any changes to your Personal Information or any other aspect of your profile, or if you believe the information we hold about you is not accurate, complete or up to date.
We will, on request, provide you with access to the information we hold about you (unless otherwise required or permitted by law). We will notify you of the basis of any denial to access your Personal Information. We will also advise you of any unsolicited or unauthorised request for access to your Personal Information.
