You can request access to any personal information we hold about you, and we'll provide this within 30 days unless exceptional circumstances apply. If you believe any information is inaccurate, you can request corrections at no cost.

Data Portability

Where technically feasible, we can provide your personal information in a structured format that allows you to transfer it to another service provider. This particularly applies to investment portfolio data and transaction histories.

Withdrawal of Consent

For activities requiring your consent (such as marketing communications), you can withdraw this consent at any time. However, we may still need to retain certain information to fulfill our regulatory obligations.

Complaint Process

  • Contact our Privacy Officer directly using the details provided below
  • We'll acknowledge your complaint within 5 business days
  • Investigation and resolution typically occurs within 30 days
  • If unsatisfied with our response, you can escalate to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner

Protecting your financial information is fundamental to our operations. We employ multiple layers of security to safeguard your data against unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse.

Technical Safeguards

  • SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmission and storage
  • Multi-factor authentication for account access
  • Regular security audits and penetration testing
