Collection of information

Armourguard collects the personal information it needs to provide the products and services it offers. Armourguard also collects personal information about its customers and suppliers, or employees or officers of its customers and suppliers, so that it can complete business transactions, purchase or deliver products and services, administer accounts, provide customer support and meet regulatory requirements. Armourguard may also use this personal information to deliver information about its business and promotional material about its products and services to its customers and suppliers.

Use and disclouse

Armourguard will generally use and disclose information it holds about an individual for the purpose for which it was collected and for other related purposes for which the individual would reasonably expect it to use the information or to which the individual has agreed. That agreement might be written, verbal or implied from the conduct of the individual. If Armourguard engages anyone to do something on its behalf (for example, mailing houses, suppliers of internet support services, auditors, debt collection agencies, process servers or lawyers]) then Armourguard and the service provider may exchange information for the purposes for which the service provider has been engaged. We also use personal information for planning, product development and research purposes. Armourguard shares personal information with its related companies both in and outside New Zealand. Armourguard may also use or disclose information where it is required or permitted by law to do so or where the use or disclosure is in the public interest.

Armourguard does not disclose your information to organisations outside Armourguard and its related companies for the purposes of allowing them to direct market their products to you. If the law requires us to provide you with information about our products or services, we will provide that information to you even if you have elected not to receive information about our products and services generally.

Ensuring your personal information is up to date

We rely on the personal information we hold about you in conducting our business. Therefore, it is important that the information we hold about you is accurate, complete and up-to-date. We take reasonable steps to ensure that the information we hold about you is accurate complete and up-to-date whenever we collect or use it.

• External and internal premises security.
• Restricting access to personal information to staff who need it to perform their day-to-day functions.
• Maintaining technology products to prevent unauthorised computer access including identifiers and passwords.
• Maintaining physical security over paper records.

Access and correction

Generally Armourguard allows individuals access to the information it holds about them as soon as reasonably practical after they have made a request for access. In some instances Armourguard will refuse to give an individual access to information. If it does so it will provide that individual with the reason it has refused access. Armourguard will correct information it has about an individual if it discovers, or the individual is able to show, the information is incorrect. If an individual seeks a correction and Armourguard disagrees that the information is incorrect Armourguard will provide the individual with its reasons for taking that view and will attach a statement to the information advising that the individual considers the relevant part of the information to be incorrect. Armourguard may charge a fee for informing an individual what information it has about them. This fee will be charged to cover Armourguard reasonable costs in locating and supplying the information.

Armourguard will from time to time review and revise its Internet practices and communicate any updates on its website. Minor changes may be made at any time without notice. If we make a major change in the way that we use, disclose or protect internet registration information, we will highlight the change.
