We are committed to protecting your privacy in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). This policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you use our website and related services.

Information We Collect and How It is Used

To process your financial services referral request, Truck Cover Australia may collect your name, phone number, email address, postcode, and other details relevant to the type of service you are requesting.

This information is used to match you with a suitable financial services provider or lender. Truck Cover Australia, on behalf of Clark Family Pty Ltd, provides this information to one (and only one) of our trusted network of third-party partners (brokers, lenders, and insurers) so that they can contact you directly and provide the services you have requested.

We may also receive information from our broker, insurer, and lender partners, including updates or outcomes of your application, via secure electronic systems or APIs. This information is used solely for customer service, quality assurance, and compliance reporting.

Where lawful and practicable, you may interact with us anonymously or using a pseudonym. However, if you do not provide the personal information we request, we may not be able to assist you with your referral or process your inquiry. There is no charge to you for using our referral service, although brokers or other third parties we refer you to may have their own fees or charges, which you should confirm with them.

Disclosure of Personal Information

We may disclose your personal information to third-party providers, brokers, lenders, or service partners. Some of these recipients may be located outside Australia. Where we transfer your personal information overseas, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that these recipients handle your information in accordance with the APPs and maintain confidentiality and data security. Please contact us if you would like further information about the countries where your personal information is likely to be disclosed.

We require all third-party partners to comply with strict privacy and confidentiality obligations and to use your personal information only for the purpose of responding to your inquiry or providing the services you have requested.

Please note: Once you are referred to a third-party provider, their own privacy policy and terms will apply to any information you provide directly to them.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

You may request access to the personal information we hold about you at any time. We will not charge any fee for making a request but may charge you reasonable costs incurred in providing access (e.g., photocopying or postage).

You may also request correction of your personal information if you believe it is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, or misleading. We will respond to all access and correction requests within a reasonable timeframe.

To make a request, please contact us. We may ask you to submit your request in writing for security reasons.

Complaints and Dispute Resolution

If you have any concerns about how your personal information has been handled, please contact us so that we can investigate and resolve your concern promptly.

If you are not satisfied with our response, you may refer your complaint to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC):

Retention of Personal Information

We retain your personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and to meet any legal, regulatory, or reporting obligations. When your information is no longer required for these purposes, we will take reasonable steps to securely destroy or de-identify it.
