We may use persistent cookies (which remain on your computer even after you close your browser) to store information that may speed up your use of our website for any of your future visits to the website. We may also use session cookies (which no longer remain after you end your browsing session) to help manage the display and presentation of information on the website. You may refuse to use cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. However, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use the full functionality of the website.
3. WHY DO WE COLLECT, HOLD, AND USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
We may use personal information for the primary purpose for which it is collected (e.g. provision of our services, including administration of our services) or for secondary purposes which are related (or directly related to the case of sensitive information) to the primary purpose.
We collect, hold and use your personal information so that we can:
(a) comply with our legal obligations and assist government and law enforcement agencies or regulators;
(b) communicate with, and comply with our legal obligations to, our shareholders, and to process payments to them;

Where appropriate, we will confirm your express consent before collecting such information.
If you do not provide us with your personal information, we may not be able to provide you with our services, communicate with you or respond to your enquiries.
4. HOW DO WE COLLECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
We will collect your personal information directly from you whenever you interact with us.
We may collect information from third parties – for instance, information regarding shareholders is collected from our share registrar, and information about job applicants is collected in the manner set out above.
5. HOW DO WE STORE AND HOLD PERSONAL INFORMATION?
We store most information about you in computer systems and databases operated by either us or our external service providers.
We implement and maintain processes and security measures to protect personal information which we hold from misuse, interference or loss, and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. Processes including taking steps to restrict access to databases, maintaining firewalls, encrypting data, using secure servers in controlled facilities and only allowing access by those entrusted with authority and computer network passwords. We also require all employees to comply with information security policies and attend training. In addition, we monitor and regularly review our practices against industry best practice.
We will also take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify personal information once we no longer require it for the purposes for which it was collected or for any secondary purpose permitted under the APPs.
However, the internet is not a secure environment and no computer system is perfectly secure. Although all care is taken, we cannot guarantee the security of information provided to us. This means that there is always a risk that your personal information may be accessed or used without authorisation.
6. WHO DO WE DISCLOSE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION TO, AND WHY?
We may transfer or disclose your personal information to our related companies.
We may disclose personal information to external service providers (including IT service providers, auditors, legal advisors, mail houses and our share registrar) so that they may perform services for us or on our behalf.
We may also disclose your personal information to others outside our group of companies where:
(a) we are required or authorised by law to do so;
(b) you may have expressly consented to the disclosure or the consent may be reasonably inferred from the circumstances; or
(c) we are otherwise permitted to disclose the information under the Privacy Act.
If the ownership or control of all or part of our assets or business changes, we may transfer your personal information to the prospective or new owner.
7. DO WE DISCLOSE PERSONAL INFORMATION TO OVERSEAS RECIPIENTS?
We may disclose your personal information to related bodies corporate which are located outside Australia. The related bodies corporate are located in Ireland and the United States of America.
The Company may also use overseas facilities to process or back up its information. As a result, we may transfer your personal information to our overseas facilities for storage (predominantly located in the United States). However, this does not change any of our commitments to safeguard your privacy.
8. DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION FOR MARKETING?
We will use your personal information to offer you products and services we believe may interest you, but we will not do so if you tell us not to.
Where you receive electronic marketing communications from us, you may opt out of receiving further marketing communications by following the opt-out instructions provided in the communication.
9. ACCESS TO AND CORRECTION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
You may access or request correction of the personal information that we hold about you by contacting us. Our contact details are set out below. We may need to verify your identify before giving you access to your personal information. There are some circumstances in which we are not required to give you access to your personal information (for example, where a legal exemption applies).
There is no charge for requesting access to your personal information, but we may require you to meet our reasonable costs in providing you with access (such as photocopying costs or costs for time spent on collating large amounts of material).
We will respond to your requests to access or correct personal information in a reasonable time and will take all reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we hold about you remains accurate and up to date.
10. YOUR RIGHTS UNDER THE EU GDPR
