Access, correction and retention of your personal information
You can request access to the personal information we hold about you by contacting our Privacy Officer using the details provided and we will generally provide you with access, subject to some exceptions permitted by law. Access to personal information may be refused in a number of circumstances, such as where:

  • providing access would have an unreasonable impact on the privacy of others;

  • the request is frivolous or vexatious;

  • the information relates to existing or anticipated legal proceedings and would not normally be accessible as part of those proceedings;

  • providing access would be unlawful;

  • denying access is required by law;

  • providing access would be likely to prejudice enforcement related activities conducted by an enforcement body;

  • giving access would reveal evaluative information in connection with a commercially sensitive decision-making process; or

  • access would pose a threat to the life, health or safety of any individual or to public health or safety.

 

If we deny or restrict access to the information you have requested, we will give you written reasons for this decision when we respond to your request. We may charge a reasonable fee to cover our costs of providing access to you and will advise you of any such fee payable before we provide you with access. We will retain your personal information for as long as it is required to achieve the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.

You agree that any information you give to us will be accurate, correct and up to date, and that when acting on behalf of a business or another person, you are authorised to give such information to us. Where you provide us with any personal information of a third party, you confirm that you have the necessary authorisations and consent to disclose that personal information to us for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We rely on the personal information we hold in conducting our business. Therefore, it is very important that the information we hold is accurate, complete and up-to-date. If you believe that your personal information is inaccurate, incomplete, out of date, and irrelevant or misleading, please update your details in the application and we will take reasonable steps to correct that information.

Security of information
Cleared is committed to protecting the security of your personal information and we take all reasonable precautions to secure and protect the integrity of personal information from misuse, interference and/or loss and unauthorised access, modification and/or disclosure. While we take reasonable efforts to guard your personal information, no security system is impenetrable and due to the inherent nature of the Internet as an open global communications vehicle, we cannot guarantee that information, during transmission through the internet or while stored on our systems or otherwise in our care, will be absolutely safe from intrusion by others such as hackers.

Overseas disclosure of Personal Information
Some of our service providers may be located overseas. As a result, Cleared may disclose your personal information to overseas recipients, including recipients located in the United States, Australia, Philippines and Ireland. For example, sometimes we use third party platforms to deliver or store information. These are sites hosted and managed by other organisations, and some of these sites are located overseas. Your personal information may be stored in a secure and encrypted form overseas (e.g. in data storage and cloud computing facilities operated by us (or by third parties on Cleared’s behalf).
