Privacy & Credit Reporting Policy
We take our obligations to protect personal information seriously. We are committed to respecting the privacy and protecting the personal information of our users and customers. We are bound by the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (“APPs”) (together, the “Privacy Act”), as well as the Credit Reporting Privacy Code.
We sometimes handle personal information relying on exemptions under these laws, for example in relation to employee records. Any permitted handling of personal information under such exemptions will take priority over this privacy policy to the extent there is any inconsistency.
This policy provides information as to the kind of personal information that we collect and the ways we use it. In this privacy policy, the terms “we”, “us”, “our” and “FinTech Services Australia” are references to FinTech Services (Aust) Pty Ltd, ACN 607 930 996.
FinTech Services Australia is not a credit provider but can assist you in dealing with credit providers and credit reporting bodies . For example, FinTech Services Australia can help you get your credit score from a credit reporting body without leaving a ‘footprint’ of the check on your credit history such as an “inquiry” notification.
FinTech Services Australia can then provide that credit score to FAIR GO FINANCE or to a credit assistance provider which can then refer your details to another appropriate credit provider.
The ways in which FAIR GO FINANCE manages personal and credit related information is detailed in the FAIR GO FINANCE Privacy & Credit Reporting Policy, which may be found at https://www.fairgofinance.com.au/legal-and-compliance. “FAIR GO FINANCE” refers to Fair Go Finance Pty Ltd, ACN 134 369 574, and in the context of the provision of credit facilities, means Fair Go Finance Pty Ltd, Australian Credit Licence number 387995, ACN 134 369 574.
The term “Website” means the websites under the domain name https://fintechservicesaustralia.com.au/ and unless the context requires otherwise, includes any other sites operated by us where this privacy policy is accessible. The term “you”, “your” and “user” refers to you as the user of the Website or our services.
Our contact details are contained in section 7 below.
