PURPOSES FOR WHICH WE COLLECT, USE AND DISCLOSE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

IDENTIFYING YOU FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE AML ACT
We may provide your name, residential address and date of birth to a credit reporting body for the purpose of verifying your identity
in accordance with the requirements of the AML Act which is not a credit check. As part of providing that information to the credit
reporting body, we may request the credit reporting body to provide an assessment of whether the personal information held matches
(in whole or part) personal information held by the credit reporting body.
The credit reporting body may prepare and provide an assessment to us and may use the names, residential addresses and dates
of birth held by the credit reporting body, for the purpose of preparing such an assessment. Although you agree to us making this
request and disclosure of your personal information for this purpose, if you don’t wish to proceed with electronically verifying your
identity, you should not continue with the digital application form and instead contact us for an alternate method of application.
