This Privacy Policy outlines our practices relating to the collection of information collected through all our services, website, widgets, competitions, customer surveys (collectively, the 'Services').

What information do we collect?

We will only collect personal information that is necessary for us to provide you with the Services that we offer. If you choose not to provide certain personal information then we may not be able to provide the Services to you.

The following are the main types of personal information we collect and the main purpose for which that information is collected:

Personal information we collect

The primary purpose for which we collect your personal information is to provide the services you request. This includes:

This information, in most cases, will be your email address but may also be your name, phone number, postcode and information associated to your request. This information also includes other information that you may provide as part of your ongoing relationship with Mozo.

If you authorise us to obtain your credit score we will ask you for additional identity information for the purpose of obtaining that score from a credit agency. This is typically your full name, address, date of birth, sex, and driver’s licence number.

Public information, post and commentary

How do we use your information?

We use the information we collect about you in order to provide the Services to you. These uses include:

Where we ask for personal information we clearly outline the purpose for which the information is collected and how we will use your information and to whom it may be disclosed.

We use third party service providers in order to provide the Services to you and in doing so may make your information available to certain third party service providers. These services include website hosting, mailing list providers, CRM software, accounting software, web analytics software, ad serving and online marketing software. These providers may be located in a range of different countries including Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States. We take all steps which are reasonable in the circumstances to ensure that these organisations both inside and outside of Australia deal with personal information according to this Privacy Policy and do not breach the Australian Privacy Principles in relation to the information.

We may also use the information provided by you on an anonymous basis where your personal information is not identifiable and we may use this for any purpose or share it with third parties. We mainly use your information on this basis in relation to our market research services, measuring the way that our Services are being used and the publishing of customer reviews information on the site. We may also provide this information to third parties to allow them to serve relevant advertisements to you.
