Best Practice

Keeping your personal information safe is very important to us.  We follow accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it.

We are always working to improve the standards we use. However, despite everything we do we cannot guarantee the security of the transmission or storage of your personal information.

When we store information overseas or when we use a third party to store information overseas (e.g. Microsoft Azure Services), we will ensure that the third party complies with New Zealand privacy obligations.
