Information we collect

In order to provide services and support for you, we may collect identifiable personal information such as your name, address, business name, phone and email address. 

Additional information such as details about your motor vehicle, boat, caravan, motorbike, jet ski or other assets or equipment you own and for which you are looking to organise an extended warranty will be collected when you provide this information to us. 

We may also collect your preferences for various services we provide. This information will normally be collected to provide specific services or fulfill a specific request for you.

We may also collect credit card or bank account details to enable us to process one or more payments from you. We typically do not store this information ourselves as it is provided directly to our third party payment processors who have their own privacy and security management policies. 

We collect information on website activity, such as the number of visitors, the number of pages viewed, navigation patterns, what systems users have and the date and time of visits. This information is collected for statistical purposes only and cannot be used to identify you.

We may place a cookie on your computer through your web browser. A cookie is a small data file that is sent from our webserver and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Some cookies may be linked to your personal information and can identify you when you visit and re-visit our website. The purpose of this type of cookie is to enable our systems to recognise your browser and provide you with a better, faster and simpler interaction with our website. You may choose to reject the cookie, which will still allow you to visit the website, but may limit your experience and access on the site.

Certain visitors to our websites choose to interact with us in ways that require us to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that we gather depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we may ask visitors who sign up to our email mailing list or create an account with us to provide a username, password and email address. Those who engage in transactions with us may be asked to provide additional information, including the personal financial information required for us to process those transactions. In each case, we only collect information necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Warranteeze.

Use and disclosure of personal information

Your personal information will only be used for the purpose or purposes for which it was collected.

Your personal information will be accessed and used by our team including our staff, website developer partner, other industry partners and relevant suppliers to assist our business to provide you with the services you have specifically requested.

We may disclose your personal information to third parties such as our warranty provider partner or our payment processor to process payment transactions with you; our mailing house provider to enable information you request to be sent to you; or our debt collection provider to follow you up in the event of non-payment of invoices.

Other than as stated above, your personal information will not be shared, sold or given to any third parties without your consent, unless required or authorised under exemptions set out in Australian Privacy legislation.

From time to time, we may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, by publishing a report on trends in the usage of our website.

We do not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. As a visitor, you can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, however this may prevent you from engaging in certain website-related activities.

We will not rent or sell your personal information to any third party. We periodically conduct direct marketing campaigns to promote our services. In all such campaigns, we provide recipients with details on how to opt-out of future campaigns.

Cross-border disclosure of personal information
