address, telephone numbers, and date of birth;

handles;

- and other information We think is necessary.
How We collect and hold personal information
We must collect personal information only by lawful and fair means. We must collect your personal information from you unless it is unreasonable or impracticable to do so. For example, if We are unable to contact you and We then rely on publicly availableinformation to update your contact details or if, at your request, We exchange information with your legal or financial advisers or other representatives.
We might collect your information when you fill outa form with us (either in hard copy or via
our website), when We speak with you on thetelephone, use Our website or face to face. We
may also verify your information via electronicmeans, such as email.
If We receive personal information that We did notsolicit, then within a reasonable period afterreceiving the information, We must determinewhether or not We could have collected the
information under Australian Privacy Principle 3(collection of solicited personal information) if Wehad solicited the information and We may use ordisclose the personal information to make this
determination.
Then, if We determine that We could not havecollected the personal information and theinformation is not contained in a Commonwealthrecord, We must, as soon as practicable but only ifit is lawful and reasonable to do so, destroy theinformation or ensure that the information is deidentified. If however this does not apply in relationto the personal information, then Australian Privacy
Principles 5 to 13 apply in relation to the information as if We had collected the information by solicitation. We will do all that We can to ensure that the personal information that We collect, use and disclose is accurate, up-to-date, complete and relevant.

When We receive personal information from you directly, We will take reasonable steps to notify you how and why we collected your information, who We may disclose it to and outline how you can access it, seek correction of it or make a complaint. Sometimes We collect your personal information from third parties. You may not be aware that We have done so. If We collect information that can be used to identify you, We will take reasonable steps to notify you of that collection.
