Consumer Data Right Policy Overview
This Consumer Data Right (CDR) Policy (the Policy) explains how Adatree Pty Ltd
(Adatree) can collect, use, hold and disclose your data that you consent to sharing
with us. This ensures transparency and trust between all parties, as well as ensuring
the quality, integrity and security of your personal information under applicable CDR
legislation and Privacy Laws.
Please refer to the Privacy Policy on our website for information on our management
of your personal information. -
What is the CDR?
The CDR (Consumer Data Right) gives you control about the data that you share
with other banks and financial institutions. This is often referred to as Open Banking.
It helps you send your data to other companies with your full consent, knowledge
and control in a secure way. The intention is that you can help find the best products,
prices, suitable and to help switch to new products and services.
Open Banking will allow you to ask that your data be sent to other banks, financial
institutions and authorised organisations when you want to. You control who holds
your data and how it is used. -
Your rights as a consumer regarding your data
As a consumer you have control over who you can share your data with. Any data
recipient is accredited by the ACCC and is subject to ongoing processes, internal
dispute resolution, information security, service-level agreements, audit and other
requirements by the Data Accreditation Body.
You may choose to share your data that is held by an existing data holder (for
example, a banking institution) with an accredited data recipient (for example,
another banking institution or a fintech).
Adatree is able to use or disclose (by sale or otherwise) the de-identified redundant
data without seeking further consent from you. -
Granting and managing consent
Should you choose, you can consent to share your data with a data recipient.
You have rights to choose the following about sharing:
- which data types (for example, profile, payments, transaction or product
information); - how long you will share your data for, whether one-off share or ongoing
sharing; - whether you opt in to receiving direct marketing related to the data shared;
and - election of deletion of redundant data, if an alternative de-identification of data is offered.
Consent may only last for a maximum of twelve (12) months, until the time that you
withdraw consent, re-grant consent or the consent expires.You may view and manage your consent in the consent dashboard of either of the organisations that receive or send your data.
- which data types (for example, profile, payments, transaction or product
-
Withdrawing consentYou may withdraw your consent at any time. You can withdraw your consent in multiple ways, including:
- Through the data recipient consent dashboard;
- Through the data holder consent dashboard; or
- In writing to either party.
The consent revocation must be completed within two business days if notified in
writing. If revocation occurs through the consent dashboard, the dashboard will be
updated in near real-time to reflect your change in consent status (for example,
active, expired or withdrawn).If the consent is withdrawn, we will delete your data.
If you withdraw your consent, the services provided to you by the Data Recipient
may cease. -
Deletion of your data
Legislation requires that Adatree adheres to the data minimisation principle, which
requires that only the required data is held as long as needed. This is related to the
purposes stated for data capture.If you give consent to an accredited data recipient to collect and use their CDR data,
you may elect that your collected data, and any data derived from it, be deleted
when it becomes redundant. This can be managed when consent is given or during
the consent lifecycle before consent is withdrawn or expired. -
Disclosing your data to outsourced parties
Adatree does not disclose your data to any parties. If this does change, this list will
be updated based on any changed arrangements with outsourced parties. -
Where your data is stored
Your data is stored onshore. Copies of your data is only stored in Australia.
This list will be updated based on outsourced parties and their storage policies.
