We assure you we only collect personal information that is necessary for us to carry out the various functions and activities we undertake for the benefit of our customers. We take all possible steps to ensure that customer information is not disclosed or accessed by unauthorised parties.
Where information disclosure is necessary to fulfil our business commitments to you we may disclose information to persons involved in administering the services, our related entities and business partners.
Sensitive information is only disclosed as authorised or required by the Telecommunications Act 1997 (Cth) and other laws applicable to us.
We may also use your information so that we, our related entities and other business partners can promote and market products, services and special offers that we think will be of interest to you (which may include products, services and offers provided by a third party). This marketing may be carried out in a variety of ways (including by email, SMS/MMS, or social media or by customising on-line content and displaying advertising on websites) and may continue after you cease acquiring any products or services from us until you opt out. You may opt out by contacting us as detailed in “How to contact us” below.

In some cases, the organisations that we disclose your information, including credit information, to may be based outside Australia. All such information that is provided is used solely for the purpose of marketing and providing the group’s products within Activ8me.
Activ8me also uses 3rd party vendor re-marketing tracking cookies, including the Google Adwords tracking cookie. This means we will continue to show ads to you across the internet, specifically on the Google Content Network (GCN) and Google Display Network (GDN). As always we respect your privacy and are not collecting any identifiable information through the use of Google’s or any other 3rd party remarketing system.
The third-party vendors, including Google, whose services we use – will place cookies on web browsers in order to serve ads based on past visits to our website. Third party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to your website. This allows us to make special offers and continue to market our services to those who have shown interest in our service.
We collect, hold and use, information related to your commercial and consumer creditworthiness from Dun & Bradstreet (internet: www.dnb.com.au , email: pac.austral@dnb.com.au, telephone: 1300 734 806), a credit reporting body, for all purposes permitted by law. We also disclose information to them. This activity is conducted for the purpose of assessing your credit capacity, eligibility or history in connection with an application or an obligation as a guarantor, collecting payments from you, and managing our credit relationship. Creditworthiness information includes information that is both positive (like payment information) and negative (like defaults or serious credit infringements that we may disclose to credit reporting bodies if you fail to pay us).
Activ8me will take all reasonable steps to keep our customer’s personal information secure. Staff are trained to respect privacy and confidentiality of customer information. You can also help us keep your personal information secure by ensuring that any passwords that you use on our web sites are kept strictly confidential, and by always logging off if you are using a shared computer.
