The kinds of personal information we collect, and hold may include your name, address, date of birth, employment details, telephone or mobile phone number and other contact information.


3. How we collect and hold your personal information

Where possible we will collect your personal information directly from you, for example if you enquire about our products and services or you enter into a contract with us. Sometimes we may collect your personal information from third parties. Those third parties include finance and insurance companies (in relation to your request for products or services) and service providers or individuals (where we conduct a credit, employment, or reference check).

We have security measures in place to protect your personal information whilst under our control. These measures include controls around access to our premises and systems, requiring our employees to comply with this policy and requiring third party service providers to keep the information we provide to them confidential. Personal information is de-identified, deleted or destroyed securely when no longer required by us.


4. Why we collect and hold your personal information

We will only collect and hold your personal information where it is reasonably necessary to enable us to carry on our business or provide products and services to you.

  • to vehicle and parts manufacturers, financiers, insurers, agencies and our contractors or third-party service providers in Australia in connection with the purposes set out above.
