2.3 We do not generally collect sensitive information. We may however do so to perform a specific function authorised by a third party organisation (for example, to perform a business process function that has been outsourced to us by a customer) provided that we will only do so if you have given your consent (either to us or to the third party) and it is reasonably necessary for the functions or activities of the collecting party.

10.6 If you ask us for access to, or correction of, personal information we hold about you, we will generally respond to your request within 30 days. Our ability to do so will depend on the scope and clarity of your request, whether the personal information can be readily located and assembled and whether consultation with you or other parties is required. For example, if we hold personal information on behalf of a third party organisation that has outsourced a business process function to us then we will need to consult with that third party before responding to your request. We may disclose your personal information to the third party organisation in order to deal with your request.
10.7 Where we hold personal information that you are entitled to access, we will provide you with access to the information in the manner requested by you, if it is reasonable and practicable to do so.

10.12 If we refuse your request, we will give you a written notice setting out:
- The reasons for the refusal (to the extent it is reasonable for us to do so); and

11.3 We may disclose your personal information in any of the following circumstances:
- To an overseas recipient if we have taken reasonable steps (for example, entered into a contract) to ensure that the recipient entity does not breach the Australian Privacy Principles in the Privacy Act in relation to your personal information.
