TLU Australia Pty Ltd ACN 626 790 752
General TLU Australia Pty Ltd ACN 626 790 752 and its related entities (referred to in this document as ‘we’, ‘us’ or ‘our’) operate the thelegupaustralia.com.au website and other online platforms (Site’).
We are committed to protecting the personal information we collect from you when you use our Site. The Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (‘Privacy Act’), and the Australian Privacy Principles (‘APP’) govern the way in which we must manage your personal information and this policy sets out how we collect, use, disclose and otherwise manage personal information about you.
We will not share or use your personal information, except as described in this Policy or unless you have otherwise provided us with your consent to do so.
Collection Types of information collected
To assist us in providing you with access to the Site and the services provided via our Site (‘Services’), we may collect and hold personal information. Personal information is information or an opinion about you or that reasonably identifies you, whether the information or opinion is true or not, and whether the information or opinion is recorded in a material form or not (‘Personal Information’).
During the course of conducting our business and/or providing the Services, we will collect information which may include the following types of Personal Information:
• your name;
• date of birth;
• contact details (including address, email address, phone number);
• proof of identification documentation including but not limited to your driver’s licence; and
• financial information (such as credit card or bank account numbers)
The type of information we collect and hold about you depends on your relationship with us, your interaction with our Site and the account you hold with us.
This is not an exhaustive list. We may need to collect additional information about you from time to time to provide products or services to you.
You might also need to provide us with Personal Information about other individuals (e.g. your authorised representatives). If so, we rely on you to inform those individuals that you are providing their Personal Information to us and to advise them about this policy.
Purpose of collection
The type of Personal Information that we collect and hold about you depends on your interaction with us. Generally, we will collect, use and hold your Personal Information for the purposes of:
• providing you with the Services;
• issuing tax invoices for the Services we may provide to you from time to time;
• providing you with information about other services that we, our related entities and other organisations that we have affiliations with, offer that may be of interest to you;
• facilitating our internal business operations, including the fulfilment of any legal requirements; and
• analysing our services and customer needs with a view to developing new or improved services.
Method of collection
Personal Information will generally be collected directly from you through the use of any of our standard forms (such as when you enter into an agreement with us, contact us with a query or request, submit your details through our Site or by email). We may also collect information other than directly from you where it is unreasonable or impractical to not do so, for example:
• from third parties such as our related entities, business partners, or your representatives;
• from publicly available sources of information;
• from our records of how you use our services; and
• from the third parties we list in the section of this policy with the heading ‘Use and disclosure’.
We will usually notify you in advance when we indirectly collect information, or where that is not possible, as soon as reasonably practicable after the information has been collected.
If you choose not to provide certain information about you, we may not be able to provide you with the products or services you require, or the level of service on which we pride ourselves.
If the Personal Information you provide to us is incomplete or inaccurate, we may be unable to provide you, or someone else you know, with the products or services you, or they, are seeking.

How we use your information for Direct Marketing We may also use your information so that we, our related entities, and other business partners can promote and market products, services and special offers that we think will be of interest to you (which may include products, services and offers provided by a third party). This marketing may be carried out in a variety of ways (including by email, SMS/MMS, or social media) and may continue after you cease acquiring any products or services from us until you opt-out by contacting us using the contact details set out in the Contact section of this policy.
How we hold your Personal Information The security of your Personal Information is of paramount importance to us.

The security of your Personal Information is important to us. We take all reasonable measures to ensure that your Personal Information is stored safely to protect it from misuse, loss, interference, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
If we no longer need your Personal Information for the purposes for which it was collected or for purposes which are directly related to one or more of our functions and activities, we will take reasonable steps to securely destroy it or permanently remove all identifying features from that information. This obligation is subject to any legal requirement or Court order to retain the information.
Data breach notification We accept our obligation to keep Personal Information safe. Should personal data systems be breached or data is misused or lost, then we will take all reasonable and practicable means to contact individuals whose Personal Information is involved. We will advise such individuals of the extent of the data breach (if known) and advise individuals of the most appropriate means of regaining control of their Personal Information. If appropriate, we will also report any eligible data breach to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner in accordance with the Privacy Act.
How you can access your Personal Information You may access the Personal Information we hold about you, upon making a written request. We will respond to your request within a reasonable period. We take all reasonable steps to ensure that the Personal Information we hold, use and disclose is accurate, complete and up to date.
We may decline a request for access to Personal Information in circumstances prescribed by the Privacy Act, and if we do, we will give you a written notice that sets out the reasons for the refusal (unless it would be unreasonable to provide those reasons).

We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from Minors.
