We take reasonable steps to protect personal information against loss, unauthorised access, misuse, alteration or disclosure.



Information may be stored using secure third-party systems and cloud service providers. Some providers may store or process information outside New Zealand. Where applicable, we take reasonable steps to ensure personal information continues to receive appropriate protection.



No method of online storage or transmission is completely secure, but we use safeguards that are reasonable for the nature of the information we hold.



How long we keep information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably required for the purpose for which it was collected, or as required for legal, tax, accounting, insurance, safety or dispute-resolution purposes.



When information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to securely delete it or remove identifying details.
