PRIVACY POLICY

Our commitment to your privacy

The privacy of individuals, including our staff and our clients, is of utmost importance to PCT Agcloud Pty Ltd. This includes information or opinions about you that we collect and record which reasonably could be used to identify you. We adhere to the National Privacy Principles and the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

When this Privacy Policy mentions “we,” “us,”, “our,” or “PCT Agcloud” it refers to PCT Agcloud Pty Ltd ABN 55 616 420 985.

This document sets out our policies for managing personal information across our business operations in Australia. We have a Privacy Officer, whose contact details are below.

We want you to know how we may collect, use, share, and keep information about you and the choices that are available to you. When we provide products or services to you, we may also give you additional details about how we will use your personal information.

This Privacy Policy applies to PCT Agcloud websites and portals, and online services that may run on smart phones, tablets, and other mobile devices (“apps”) and together the (“PCT Agcloud Platform”). It does not apply to those websites that have their own online privacy statements.

Not all the information described in the Privacy Policy is ‘Personal Information’ under the Privacy Act – some of the Online Information we collect does not identify you (for example, some information we collect using cookies or information that is aggregated or de-identified).

Our websites and apps are not intended for children under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly solicit data online from, or communicate online to, children under 18 years of age.

Since we may change this Privacy Policy, we recommend that you check the current version available from time to time. If we make changes to this Privacy Policy, we will update the Effective Date at the top of this page.

You acknowledge that for the purposes of this Privacy Policy, PCT Agcloud is the Data Controller for Personal Data which may be stored.

Types of personal information we collect

The types of information we collect depends on which product or service you use and how you interact with us.

We generally do not collect sensitive information (such as relating to ethnic origin, religious or philosophical beliefs, membership of a political or trade association, sexual preferences

or health), and would not do so without your consent. PCT Agcloud does not collect information in a way that is unfair or unlawful. The collection of information will not intrude unreasonably on the personal affairs of the individual concerned.

We also use, store, and process information about you to provide, understand, improve, and develop the PCT Agcloud Platform, and to create and maintain a trusted and safer environment. We may also use and disclose your information for purposes related to those mentioned above, including:

to provide requested services to you, and bill you for our services and collect overdue payments;

to enable you to access and use the payment and delivery services;
to provide customer service;
to send you service or support messages, such as updates, security alerts, and account notifications;
for our research and development of new products and services;
for training, quality control and verification purposes (including monitoring and recording your telephone conversations with us from time to time);

for record keeping, data analytics and auditing;
to detect and prevent fraud, spam, abuse, security incidents, and other harmful activity;

How we collect information

Generally, we collect personal information directly from you, in response to our direct mail, e-mail, forms that you complete and submit to us, or when you have other dealings with us. We may collect that information over the telephone or internet, in person (when you visit us at an PCT Agcloud office) and when you write to us.

We may also collect personal information through third parties such as:

a third party business that provides commercial financial information;
market research organisations;
other credit providers;
persons authorised by you (such as lawyers or accountants);
referees (if you give us the name of someone who can give a reference about you); and
publicly available sources of information.

We only collect your information from external sources if it is impractical to collect it directly from you, or when we are permitted to do so.

We (and our Service Providers) also collect information through Cookies and Similar Technologies. Most Cookies and Similar Technologies will only collect De-Identified Information such as how you arrive at our website or your general location. However, certain Cookies and Similar Technologies do collect Personal Information. For example, if you click Remember Me when you log in to our website, a cookie will store your username.

We (and our Service Providers) may collect information using Cookies and Similar Technologies about:

the device you use to access our websites or apps (for example, we may collect information about the operating system or the browser version and the type of computer or mobile device);
the IP Address and information related to that IP Address (such as domain information, your internet provider and general geographic location);
browsing history on our websites or apps (such as what you search for, the pages you view, how long you stay, and how often you come back);
how you search for our websites or apps, and from which website or app you came from;
which ads or online content from us you view, access, or click on;
whether you open our electronic communications and which parts you click on (for example, which links you use); and
the location of your mobile device (for example, to help prevent fraud or when you register to receive location-based content on our mobile websites or apps).

We (and our Service Providers) may also collect information made publicly available through third-party platforms (such as online social media platforms), through online databases or directories, or that is otherwise legitimately obtained.

What happens if I do not provide information that has been requested?

It is your choice whether to provide your personal information or not. However, if you don’t, we might be unable to fulfil your request for a specific product or service or be able to identify you to protect you against fraud.

How we store information

We store personal information in a combination of secure computer storage facilities and paper based files and other record formats. We have taken a number of steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. We use generally accepted technology and security so that we are satisfied that your information is transmitted safely to us through the internet or other electronic means.

We will take reasonable steps to securely destroy or permanently de-identify personal information when we no longer need it.

We are continuously implementing and updating administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your information against unauthorized access, loss, destruction, or alteration. However, the internet and mobile devices are not a 100% secure environment so we can’t guarantee the security of the transmission or storage of your information.

When we may disclose your personal information

By continuing to use this to use the PCT Agcloud Platform, you agree and consent to the use, disclosure and storage of your personal information under this policy.

Generally, we may disclose personal information about you in the following circumstances:

to comply with our legal obligations (we notify you any time we are required to produce
information in this way unless we are prohibited by court order or law or there is

suspicion of fraud and/or criminal activity);

where we suspect that unlawful activity has been or may be engaged in and the personal information is a necessary part of our investigation or reporting of the matter;
where we are satisfied on reasonable grounds that disclosure is necessary to lessen or prevent a serious threat to the life, health, safety or welfare of an individual or to public health, safety or welfare;
the disclosure is necessary for research or the compilation or analysis of statistics in the public interest, but does not involve the publication of the personal information in a form which would identify an individual;
financial advisers, brokers and other parties authorised by us;
other areas and organisations within thePCT Agcloud group that provide financial and other services, for reasonable business purposes;
anyone authorised by you or to whom you have provided your consent (either expressly or impliedly).

Disclosure outside of Australia

Personal information that we collect may be stored, disclosed, or processed in and transferred between any of the countries in which we operate to enable the use of the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

When you provide your personal information to us, you consent to the disclosure, storage, and processing of your personal information outside of Australia and acknowledge that, in doing so, we will not be accountable under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Privacy Act) for the treatment of that personal information by the overseas recipients. However, we will take steps that are reasonable in the circumstances to ensure that any overseas recipient will deal with such personal information in a way that is substantially similar to the way in which the relevant Australian Privacy Principles in the Privacy Act protects such personal information.

With Your Consent

We may share your information at your direction or as described at the time of sharing, such as when you authorize a third party application or website to access your PCT Agcloud Account.

Service Providers

We use a variety of third party service providers to help us provide services related to the PCT Agcloud Platform. Service providers may be located inside or outside of Australia. For example, service providers may help us: (i) verify or authenticate your identification, (ii) check information against public databases, (iii) assist us with background checks, fraud prevention, and risk assessment, or (iv) provide customer service, advertising, or payments services. These providers have limited access to your information to perform these tasks on our behalf, and are contractually obligated to use it consistent with this Privacy Policy.

Safety and Compliance with Law

PCT Agcloud may disclose your information to courts, law enforcement or governmental authorities, or authorized third parties, if and to the extent we are required to do so by law or if such disclosure is reasonably necessary: (i) to comply with legal process and to respond to claims asserted against PCT Agcloud, (ii) to respond to verified requests relating to a criminal investigation or alleged or suspected illegal activity or any other activity that may expose us, you, or any other of our users to legal liability, (iii) to enforce and administer our Terms of Service or other agreements with Members, (iv) for fraud investigation and prevention, risk assessment, customer support, product development and debugging purposes, or (v) to protect the rights, property or personal safety of PCT Agcloud, its employees, its Members, or members of the public.

Aggregated Data

We may also share aggregated information (information about our users that we combine together so that it no longer identifies or references an individual user) and non-personally identifiable information for industry and market analysis, demographic profiling, marketing and advertising, and other business purposes.

Aggregated Information or De-identified Information does not identify you individually; it helps us to analyse patterns among groups of people. We may share Aggregated Information or De-identified Information in several ways, for example:

for the same reasons as we might share Personal Information;
with Business Partners to help develop and market programs, products or services and present targeted content including Targeted Advertising;
with Business Partners to conduct analysis and research about customers, website and app users; or
with Third-Party Ad-Servers to place ads (including ads of our Business Partners) on various websites and apps, and to analyse the effectiveness of those ads.

Analyzing your Communications

We may review, scan, or analyze your communications on the PCT Agcloud Platform for fraud prevention, risk assessment, regulatory compliance, investigation, product development, research, and customer support purposes. For example, as part of our fraud prevention efforts, we scan and analyze messages to mask contact information and references to other websites. In some cases, we may also scan, review, or analyze messages to debug, improve, and expand product offerings. We use automated methods where reasonably possible. However, occasionally we may need to manually review some communications, such as for fraud investigations and customer support, or to assess and improve the functionality of these automated tools. We will not review, scan, or analyze your communications to send third party marketing messages to you, and we will not sell reviews or analyses of these communications.

Linking Third Party Accounts

You may link your PCT Agcloud Account with your account at a third party social networking service. Your contacts on these third party services are referred to as “Friends.” When you create this link:

some of the information you provide to us from the linking of your accounts may be published on your PCT Agcloud Account profile;
your activities on the PCT Agcloud Platform may be displayed to your Friends on the PCT Agcloud Platform and/or that third party site;
a link to your public profile on that third party social networking service may be included in your PCT Agcloud public profile;
other PCT Agcloud users may be able to see any common Friends that you may have with them, or that you are a Friend of their Friend if applicable;
other PCT Agcloud users may be able to see any schools, hometowns or other groups you have in common with them as listed on your linked social networking service;
the information you provide to us from the linking of your accounts may be stored, processed and transmitted for fraud prevention and risk assessment purposes; and
the publication and display of information that you provide to PCT Agcloud through this linkage is subject to your settings and authorizations on the PCT Agcloud Platform and the third party site.

Third party partners & integrations

The PCT Agcloud Platform may contain links to third party websites or services, such as third party integrations, co-branded services, or third party-branded services (“Third Party Partners”). PCT Agcloud doesn’t own or control these Third Party Partners and when you interact with them, you may be providing information directly to the Third Party Partner, PCT Agcloud, or both. These Third Party Partners will have their own rules about the collection, use, and disclosure of information. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of the other websites you visit.

Will my personal information be used for direct marketing?

We use and disclose your personal information to keep you informed about the range of financial products and services offered by us.
