Privacy Policy

The personal information we collect depends on your dealings with us. It may include:

• name, firm, role, and contact details including email, telephone and postal address;
• information you provide in an enquiry or in correspondence;
• for investors: information required to assess eligibility and to establish and maintain an investment, including identification and verification information collected to meet obligations under the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (Cth), and information relating to wholesale client certification;
• for Approved Financiers and their principals: information required for admission and periodic review, including identification, beneficial ownership and licensing information;
• for borrowers, guarantors and their principals: information provided in or in support of a loan application, including identification, beneficial ownership and financial information;
• records of access to restricted parts of this website, including the date and time of a wholesale declaration, the basis of qualification indicated, the internet protocol address from which it was made and the browser identification string.

Where we collect sensitive information we will do so only with consent or as otherwise permitted by law.

We collect personal information directly from you where we can: through enquiry forms on this website, through correspondence, and through documents you provide. We may also collect it from third parties, including an Approved Financier that introduces a loan, your adviser or accountant, our service providers, identity verification providers, credit reporting bodies where applicable, valuers, and public registers including those maintained by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission and land titles registries.

We collect and use personal information to respond to enquiries; to assess and manage loan applications and facilities; to assess, admit and review Approved Financiers; to assess investor eligibility and to establish, administer and report on investments; to meet our legal and regulatory obligations, including anti-money laundering, counter-terrorism financing and taxation obligations; to maintain our records, including our Conflicts Register and our records of website access; to manage and improve our operations; and to send you information about Auremont where you have asked to receive it.

If you do not provide information we request, we may be unable to respond to your enquiry, assess an application, or permit an investment.

We may disclose personal information to:

• the licensee, trustee, Security Trustee, Fund Administrator and registry for the programme;
• our solicitors, accountants, auditors and other professional advisers;
• valuers, and other parties engaged in connection with a transaction;
• an Approved Financier, in connection with a loan it has introduced;
• our information technology and document storage providers;
• regulators, law enforcement agencies, courts and others where required or authorised by law.

Some of our service providers may store information outside Australia. Where that occurs we take reasonable steps to ensure the recipient handles the information consistently with the Australian Privacy Principles.

We do not sell personal information.

We hold personal information in electronic and, where relevant, physical form, and we take reasonable steps to protect it from misuse, interference and loss, and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. We retain information for as long as needed for the purpose for which it was collected and for as long as required by law, and we then take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it.

You may ask us for access to the personal information we hold about you, and ask us to correct it if it is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading. Contact us using the details below. We will respond within a reasonable period. In limited circumstances we may refuse access or correction, in which case we will tell you why in writing.
