IS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION TRANSFERRED OUTSIDE THE AUSTRALIA?
We are based in the Australia but sometimes your personal information may be transferred outside the Australia or to NZ & the European Economic Area. If it is processed within Europe or other parts of the European Economic Area (EEA) then it is protected by European data protection standards. Some countries outside the EEA do have adequate protection for personal information under laws that apply to us. We will make sure that suitable safeguards are in place before we transfer your personal information to countries outside the EEA which do not have adequate protection under laws that apply to us. We ensure your personal data is protected by requiring all our group companies to follow the same rules when processing your personal data.
Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:
• We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.
• Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.
All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers. Our servers are hosted in Australia and the information is encrypted.
Our service facilitates the transfer of currency to jurisdictions across the globe. The recipient pay-out partner will request information to verify the identity of the sender. Your personal information will therefore be transferred to the jurisdiction to which you choose to transfer the currency.
For more information about suitable safeguards and (as relevant) how to obtain a copy of them or to find out where they have been made available you can contact us using the details above.
Unfortunately, transmission of information via the internet cannot be considered completely secure. We do our utmost to protect your personal information; however we cannot guarantee the security of those transfers. Any transmission of your personal information is at your own risk.
Once we have received your personal information, we will use strict procedures and security controls to try to prevent unauthorized access.

Do we do any monitoring involving processing of your personal information?
In this section monitoring means any listening to, recording of, viewing of, intercepting of, or taking and keeping records (as the case may be) of calls, email, text messages, social media messages, in person face to face meetings and other communications.
Some of our monitoring may be to comply with regulatory rules, self-regulatory practices or procedures relevant to our business, to prevent or detect crime, in the interests of protecting the security of our communications systems and procedures, to have a record of what we have discussed with you and actions agreed with you, to protect you and to provide security for you (such as in relation to fraud risks on your account) and for quality control and staff training purposes.
Some of our monitoring may check for obscene or profane content in communications.
We may conduct short term carefully controlled monitoring of your activities on your account(s) where this is necessary for our legitimate interests or to comply with our legal obligations. For instance, where we suspect fraud, money laundering or other crimes.
Email exchanges, web chat, telephone calls and in person meetings between us and you in connection with your application and/or your account(s) may be recorded to make sure that we have a record of what has been discussed and what your instructions are. We may also record these types of calls for the quality control and staff training purposes.

For how long is your personal information retained by us?
Unless we explain otherwise to you, we will hold your personal information for up to 10 years, in accordance with local regulations as applicable, following the termination of our relationship in case of-

Queries from you:
• Legal claims by you; and/or
• Legal and/or regulatory requirements to which we are subject.
• If you would like further information about our data retention practices, please contact with us.

PROFILING AND OTHER AUTOMATED DECISION MAKING:
We may do this to decide what marketing communications are suitable for you, to analyses statistics and assess lending and insurance risks. We can do this activity based on our legitimate interests (and they are listed in the section about legal grounds above) only where the profiling and other automated decision making does not have a legal or other significant effect on you. In all other cases, we can do this activity only where it is necessary for entering into or performing the relevant contract, is authorized by laws that apply to us, or is based on your explicit consent. In those cases, you have the right to obtain human intervention to contest the decision (see ‘rights in relation to automated decision making which has a legal effect or otherwise significantly affects you’ below). Profiling for direct marketing can mean there is a separate right to object (see ‘rights to object’ below).

YOUR MARKETING PREFERENCES AND WHAT THIS MEANS:
We may use your home address, phone numbers, email address and social media (e.g. Facebook, Google and message facilities in other platforms to contact you to send you communications about offers or promotions that we believe are relevant for you based on your previous use. We will only do this if we have a legal ground which allows it under data protection laws – see above for our legal ground for marketing. You can opt out of our marketing at any time by contacting us or by following the instructions on how to do that in the marketing email or other communication.

DATA PRIVACY NOTICES FROM OTHER ORGANISATIONS:
We have mentioned that we share your personal information with receiver banks, partners who help us to complete your transactions and Credit Reference Agencies. They require us to pass on to your information about how they will use your personal information to perform their services or functions as data controllers in their own right. These notices are separate to our own.
In addition, when you log into your account via Facebook, Google, YouTube, Instagram, Twitter or LinkedIn your data will be processed by these policies and as such your personal information will also be subject to these third party privacy notices.
In circumstances where you use your Facebook or Google login credentials to create and/or log in to your account your personal information may be processed by Facebook or Google marketing tools. These tools identify individuals with reference to their particular interests or behaviors to those of our customers.

WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS UNDER DATA PROTECTION LAWS?
Here is a list of the rights that all individuals have under data protection laws. They do not apply in all circumstances. If you wish to exercise any of them, we will explain at that time if they are engaged or not. The right of data portability is only relevant from May 2018.
