You consent to us collecting, holding, using and disclosing your personal information in accordance with this policy.
Personal information is any information or an opinion about an identified individual or an individual who can be reasonably identified from the information or opinion. Information or an opinion may be personal information regardless of whether it is true.

We may use personal information for the primary purpose for which it is collected (for example, provision of our services, including administration of our services) or for secondary purposes which are related (or directly related in the case of sensitive information) to the primary purpose.
We collect, hold and use your personal information so that we can:

If you do not provide us with your personal information, we may not be able to provide you with our services, communicate with you or respond to your enquiries.
We will collect your personal information directly from you whenever you interact with us.
We may also collect information from third parties.
We store most information about you in computer systems and databases operated by either us or our external service providers.
We implement and maintain processes and security measures to protect personal information which we hold from misuse, interference or loss, and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. This includes taking steps to restrict access to databases, maintaining firewalls, encrypting data, using secure servers in controlled facilities and only allowing access by those entrusted with authority and computer network passwords. We also require all employees to comply with information security policies and attend training. In addition, we monitor and regularly review our practices against industry best practice.
We will also take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify personal information once we no longer require it for the purposes for which it was collected or for any secondary purpose permitted under the APPs.
However, the internet is not a secure environment and no computer system is perfectly secure. Although all care is taken, we cannot guarantee the security of information provided to us. This means that there is always a risk that your personal information may be accessed or used without authorisation.
We may transfer or disclose your personal information to our related companies.
We may disclose personal information to external service providers (including IT service providers, auditors, legal advisors, geological and investment learning models, mail houses and our share registrar) so that they may perform services for us or on our behalf.
We may also disclose your personal information to others outside our group of companies where:
If the ownership or control of all or part of our assets or business changes, we may transfer your personal information to the prospective or new owner.
We may disclose your personal information to recipients which are located outside Australia.
The Company may also use overseas facilities to process or back up its information. As a result, we may transfer your personal information to our overseas facilities for storage. However, this does not change any of our commitments to safeguard your privacy.
We will use your personal information to offer you products and services we believe may interest you, but we will not do so if you tell us not to. These products and services may be offered by us, our related companies, our other business partners or our service providers.
Where you receive electronic marketing communications from us, you may opt out of receiving further marketing communications by following the opt-out instructions provided in the communication.
You may access or request correction of the personal information that we hold about you by contacting us. Our contact details are set out below. We may need to verify your identity before giving you access to your personal information. There are some circumstances in which we are not required to give you access to your personal information (for example, where a legal exemption applies).
There is no charge for requesting access to your personal information, but we may require you to meet our reasonable costs in providing you with access (such as photocopying costs or costs for time spent on collating large amounts of material).
We will respond to your requests to access or correct personal information in a reasonable time and will take all reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we hold about you remains accurate and up to date.
We welcomed the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) of the European Union (EU) as an important step forward in streamlining data protection globally. Although we do not operate an establishment within the EU and do not target any offering of services towards clients in the EU specifically, we intend to comply with the data handling regime laid out in the GDPR in respect of any personal information of data subjects in the EU that we may obtain.
Under the GDPR, as a data subject you have the right to:
We have processes in place to deal with Data Subject Rights requests. Our actions and responsibilities will depend on whether we are the controller or processor of the personal data at issue. Depending on our role as either a controller or processor, the process for enabling Data Subject Rights may differ, and are always subject to applicable law. We offer a self-service option in some situations that directly allows you to access, correct, or delete the personal data that you may have provided. Please refer to the Contact Details section of this policy if you would like to make a Data Subject Rights request or have a specific need for assistance with a Data Subject Rights request.
If you have a question about our policy or wish to make a complaint about the way in which we have handled any privacy issue, including your request for access or correction of your personal information, you should contact us in writing. Our contact details are set out below.
We will consider your complaint promptly and determine whether it requires further investigation. We will notify you of the outcome of this investigation and any subsequent internal investigation.
It is our intention to resolve any complaints to your satisfaction. However, if you remain unsatisfied with the way in which we have handled a privacy issue, you may approach an independent advisor or contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) for guidance on alternative courses of action which may be available.
If you have any questions, comments, requests or concerns, please contact us at hello@canetoad.ai.
From time to time, we may change our policy on how we handle personal information or the types of personal information which we hold. Any changes to our policy will be published on our website.
