How We Safeguard Your Personal Information Outside New Zealand


From time to time, we may disclose your personal information to third parties located outside New Zealand in connection with the purpose we collect your personal information. We make sure that the overseas third party is:

If not, then we will take reasonable steps to ensure that the overseas third party is required to protect your personal information in a way that, overall, provides comparable safeguards to those required under the applicable privacy laws.
