If you have further questions relating to this policy please contact us using the contact information below.

We recognise the importance of your privacy, and that you have a right to control how your personal information is collected and used. This policy outlines how we handle your information, and how you can contact us in relation to the personal information about you that we hold.

  • Collection of personal information
    • We collect personal information from existing and potential customers, prospective employees and other individuals and use that information for the purposes identified in this privacy policy.
    • The types of personal information we will collect from you will depend on the circumstances in which that information is collected. It may include:
      • contact details (eg. your name, address, email, phone number);
      • information required for you to open an account with us or receive services from or do business with us. This information may include bank account details, credit or debit card numbers that you link to your account, financial information, and details about your investment activities and financial history;

      • information required as part of a recruitment process;
      • statistical information regarding the use of the Itrust Invest websites or Apps, including website users’ IP addresses and the dates and times of visits; and
      • information about investments that you make by cards linked to your account.
    • We usually collect personal information when you:
      • submit information to us (including via the Itrust Invest website), eg. when you register a user account, retrieve log-in information, or request a new password;
      • request a product provided by Itrust Invest;
      • submit information through the Itrust Invest website;

      • use the Itrust Invest website;
      • contact us (through the website, or by email or phone) or request that we contact you;
      • make investments using cards or accounts linked to your Itrust Invest account; or
      • participate in promotions or competitions run by or with the support of Itrust Invest.
    • You may choose to provide us with access to certain personal information stored by third parties such as social media sites. The information we may receive varies by site and is controlled by that site. By associating an account managed by a third party with your Itrust Invest account and authorising Itrust Invest to have access to this information, you agree that Itrust Invest may collect, store and use this information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

If you do not provide us with the information we request, our ability to supply you with products or services, or to otherwise fulfil the purpose for which you have provided your information may be limited.

We will collect personal information directly from you, but may also collect information about you from third parties. If we receive information about you from someone else, we will take reasonable steps to make you aware of the fact and circumstances of the collection.

  • Use and disclosure of personal information
    • We will only use and disclose your personal information in accordance with Privacy Laws and this Privacy Policy.
    • We may share your Personal Information with:
      • our affiliates and related companies;
      • the suppliers and service providers who help with our business operations including in relation to fraud prevention, identity verification, marketing, and technology services;
      • financial institutions that we use to provide you with services, or that we may partner with to create and offer a product or service;
      • companies who may invest in us;
      • law enforcement, government agencies or officials, or other third parties pursuant to a subpoena, court order, or other legal process or requirement applicable to Itrust Invest; when we need to do so to comply with law or credit card rules; or when we believe, in our sole discretion, that the disclosure of personal information is necessary to prevent financial loss, to report suspected illegal activity or to investigate suspected violations of our terms of use.
    • Our main purposes for collecting, holding, using and disclosing personal information are the following:
      • to supply products or services to our customers;
      • to obtain products and services from our suppliers;
      • to respond to enquiries from existing or prospective customers seeking information about our products or services;
      • to improve the products and services that we supply to you;
      • to carry out processes associated with the services we provide, including fraud screening, identity verification, electronic funds transfers and account monitoring;
      • to process and assess employment applications;
      • to enforce agreements between you and Itrust Invest;

      • for the purposes of conducting analysis about the deployment and use of our products and services and the technology that supports our products and services, in Australia or elsewhere;
      • to provide information to, and respond to queries from, shareholders or suppliers.
    • We generally explain at the time we collect personal information how we will use or disclose that information. We will only use or disclose personal information for a purpose other than for which it was collected if you have consented to such different use or disclosure or such use or disclosure is otherwise allowed by the Privacy Laws.
    • In carrying out our business, it may be necessary to share information about you with and between our related entities and organisations that provide services to us, including to third party retailers from whom you have made purchases as part of a promotion linked to your Itrust Invest.
    • We may aggregate information that we collect and use it for purposes outside the scope of this Privacy Policy. Any aggregated data used for those purposes will have all personally identifiable information removed.
  • Service providers
    • We use service providers to help us provide our products and services, and to carry out our business operations. This includes independent contractors and consultants, off-site security storage providers, and providers of electronic fund transfer services, account monitoring, account aggregation and identity verification services. You agree that we may provide your personal information to these service providers to use in connection with the supply of services to you and that they may provide us with your personal information to enable us to provide services to you.
    • We may also provide your personal information to third parties who offer goods or services that you may be interested in.
  • Disclosure of information outside the jurisdiction of collection
    • We may disclose personal information outside Australia but only to the extent it is necessary to perform our business functions or activities. In the conduct of our business we may transfer and disclose personal information to contracted service providers and organisations with whom we partner to provide services and whose data warehouses may be located outside Australia including the United States of America, Japan and Singapore. The privacy laws of those countries may not provide the same level of protection as the laws of Australia but this does not change our commitments to safeguard your privacy and we will comply with all applicable laws relating to the cross-border data disclosure.
    • Itrust Invest requires any overseas organisation which receives personal information held by iTrust to enter into a contractual arrangement protecting your personal information.
  • Direct marketing

These messages are an important part of the service that we provide to you and will be sent to you as long as you hold an account with us. Customers with an account cannot opt-out of receiving these messages.
    • We may provide your personal information to third parties who offer goods or services that you may be interested in. These third parties may contact you directly in relation to those goods or services.
