HOW DO WE STOREPERSONAL INFORMATION?

• Mostly, we store all personal information either electronically or physically in New Zealand. Sometimes, your information is stored or transferred overseas so we can continue providing our services to you in the most efficient manner.  Personal information that we store is held in locations managed either by us, or by third parties.  Electronic personal information is stored securely on cloud based servers.  Your electronic information is only available to Opmetrix and its agents.

• We are required under a number of different New Zealand or Australian laws to store information. We are required to keep some personal information for 7 years,

• The company that independently manages our servers actively monitors them to ensure that your information is safe and assists us in preventing cybersecurity breaches.

• Staff members provide the same level of security for personal information, when out of the offices, as if the information was in the offices. For example, if working from home, the staff member must not allow that personal information to be accessed or accessible by family members.

• If we have a reason to believe that there has been a breach of the privacy of personal information, we will assess the degree of harm likely to flow from that breach and take appropriate steps to minimise that harm. If, in our assessment, we consider that the breach is likely to cause serious harm, we will notify the Privacy Commissioner as soon as practicable after becoming aware of that privacy breach.

We will do so within a reasonable time.  You can also give someone else authority to access the personal information we hold on you on your behalf.  Persons who have legal authority can access personal information.  For example, directors of companies can access information relating to that company.

• We do not usually charge a fee for providing you access to your personal information. However, there may be some situations in which a fee may apply.

• If you wish to change personal information we hold about you that is out of date or inaccurate at any time please contact us. After notice from you, we will take reasonable steps to correct any of your information which is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date where appropriate. If you wish to have your personal information deleted, please let us know and we will delete that information wherever practicable.
