1. Purpose and application

This New Zealand Privacy Addendum (“NZ Addendum”) supplements and forms part of the ANZUK Education Services PTY LTD Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”). 

This NZ Addendum applies only to personal information that is collected, held, used or disclosed in connection with our New Zealand operations, or that relates to individuals located in New Zealand, regardless of whether that information is processed in New Zealand, Australia, or another country. 

Where there is any inconsistency between this NZ Addendum and the Privacy Policy, this NZ Addendum prevails for New Zealand personal information. 

 

2. Compliance with the Privacy Act 2020 (NZ)

In addition to complying with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles, we manage New Zealand personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 2020 (NZ) and the Information Privacy Principles (IPPs) set out in that Act. 

Unless otherwise defined, terms used in this NZ Addendum have the same meaning as in the Privacy Policy.

4. Collection of personal information (NZ)

The kinds of personal information we collect about Workseekers, Clients and Referees in New Zealand, the purposes for collection, and the methods of collection are as described in Sections 2, 3 and 4 of the main Privacy Policy.  

When collecting personal information from individuals in New Zealand, we take reasonable steps to ensure that individuals are aware of: 

• the fact that the information is being collected; 

• the purpose for which the information is being collected; 

• the entities to whom the information may be disclosed (including overseas); 

• the individual’s rights of access and correction under the Privacy Act 2020 (NZ); 

• the consequences (if any) of not providing the information; and 

• how to contact our Privacy Officer. 

 

5. Use and disclosure (New Zealand)

We use and disclose New Zealand personal information only: 

• for the purpose for which it was collected; or 

• for a directly related purpose where the individual would reasonably expect the use or disclosure; or 

• where otherwise permitted or required by the Privacy Act 2020 (NZ). 

Our use and disclosure practices for Workseekers, Clients and Referees, including disclosures to related entities and contracted service providers, are otherwise as described in Section 6 of the Privacy Policy. 

 

6. Cross‑border disclosures from New Zealand 

Some personal information collected in New Zealand is disclosed to, stored in, or accessible from Australia, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada and other jurisdictions, as described in the Privacy Policy. 

Before disclosing New Zealand personal information outside New Zealand, we take reasonable steps to ensure that one or more of the following applies, as required by the Privacy Act 2020 (NZ): 

• the overseas recipient is subject to privacy laws that provide comparable safeguards to the Privacy Act 2020 (NZ); or 

• contractual arrangements are in place requiring the overseas recipient to protect the information in a way that is comparable to the New Zealand privacy principles; or 

• the individual has expressly authorised the disclosure after being informed that New Zealand privacy protections may not apply; or 

• the disclosure is otherwise permitted by the Privacy Act 2020 (NZ). 

 

7. Storage, security and retention (NZ) 

We hold New Zealand personal information in our Information Record System as described in Section 5 of the main Privacy Policy.  

We take reasonable steps to protect New Zealand personal information against: 

• loss; and 

• unauthorised access, use, modification or disclosure. 

Personal information is retained only for as long as it is required for the purposes for which it may lawfully be used, and is then securely destroyed or de‑identified, unless we are required by law to retain it. 

 

8. Access and correction rights (New Zealand)

Individuals located in New Zealand may request access to, or correction of, their personal information under the Privacy Act 2020 (NZ). 

Our access and correction processes, identity verification requirements, and reasons for refusal are consistent with those described in Section 7 of the main Privacy Policy, subject to the requirements and timeframes imposed by New Zealand law.  

If we refuse a request for access or correction, we will: 

• provide written reasons (unless an exception applies); and 

• advise the individual of their right to complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner (New Zealand). 

 

9. Privacy breaches (New Zealand)

In the event of a privacy breach involving New Zealand personal information, we will assess the breach and, where required by the Privacy Act 2020 (NZ): 

• notify the Office of the Privacy Commissioner (New Zealand) as soon as practicable; and 

• notify affected individuals where the breach has caused, or is likely to cause, serious harm. 

We will take reasonable steps to contain, investigate and prevent future breaches.
