If you apply for finance through us, we will share the personal information you give to us with one or more potential lenders.  If we do so, those lenders may use your information in order to:

• process your application for finance;
• assess your creditworthiness;
• verify your identity in accordance with anti-money laundering legislation;
• comply with any other legal obligations; and
• if your application is successful, provide you with an offer of finance.

In order to do those things, those lenders may disclose your personal information to, and collect personal information about you from, certain third parties, including:

• credit reporting agencies (credit reporters), from whom you authorise the lenders to collect information about your identity, current credit obligations and credit history;
• identity verification agencies;
• the New Zealand Transport Agency’s ‘Driver Check’ service;
• the Ministry of Justice, in order to obtain fines information;
• government agencies and regulators, or anyone else with whom a lender is required to share that information for the purposes of complying with all applicable laws; and
• any third-party service provider, including professional advisors and public registers.

If a lender discloses the fact that you have applied for finance to a credit reporter, you agree that the credit reporter may keep that information and disclose it to its customers (which may include disclosing it to other lenders from whom you apply for finance in the future).  You can ask credit reporters for a copy of any credit information they hold about you and to update it, if necessary.
