Complaints Policy

Nexgen is required to comply with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and is bound by the Australian Privacy Principles (‘APPs’) set out in that Act. The APPs establish minimum standards for the collection, use, disclosure and handling of personal information. They apply to personal information in any form, including electronic and digital form. The APPs can be accessed at the website of the office of the Australian Information Commissioner: www.privacy.gov.au.

Nexgen is also subject to other laws relating to the protection of personal information. If Nexgen engages in direct marketing activities, Nexgen’s direct marketing activities may also need to comply with the Do Not Call Register Act 2006 (Cth) and the Spam Act 2010 (Cth).

In this Privacy Policy, unless the context otherwise requires:

  • ‘Privacy Law’ refers to any legislative or other legal requirement that applies to Nexgen’s collection, use, disclosure or handling of personal information.
  • ‘Personal information’ means information or an opinion about an identified individual or an individual who is reasonably identifiable, whether the information or opinion is true or not and whether the information or opinion is recorded in material form or not. Personal information includes sensitive information.
  • ‘Sensitive information’ means personal information about an individual’s racial or ethnic origin, political opinions or memberships, religious beliefs or affiliations, philosophical beliefs, professional or trade association/union memberships, sexual preferences and practices or criminal record.

Why does Nexgen collect personal information?

  • Nexgen collects personal information in order to, amongst other things:

    • advertising purposes
    • receive, review and respond to queries from its stakeholders;
    • providing services to its stakeholders.
    • market and promote the products and services of its subsidiaries to current and prospective customers of its subsidiaries; and
    • comply with our legal obligations, including under the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). Nexgen needs to be able to collect personal information for most of its corporate activities, although the information we require depends on the particular circumstances. If we are unable to collect the personal information we need, we may be unable to meet the expectations of our Stakeholders or provide the services they wish to receive.

Whose personal information does Nexgen collect?

  • All viewers of Nexgen website
  • staff of Nexgen and its subsidiaries; and
  • service providers and suppliers, agents and affiliates, and their staff.

Can you deal with Nexgen without identifying yourself?

In some limited situations individuals may be able to deal with Nexgen anonymously or using a pseudonym. However, if you do not wish to be identified we may not be able to provide the information or assistance you require.

What personal information does Nexgen usually collect?

Nexgen seeks at all times to ensure that it only collects the personal information that is necessary for the purposes of its functions and activities.

How does Nexgen collect personal information?

We collect personal information by various means and via various media, depending on the particular business context. We may collect this information:

In accordance with its obligations under Privacy Law, Nexgen will decide whether it would have been permitted to solicit and collect that information and if it would not have been, will destroy or de-identify the information (provided it is lawful to do so).

What information will Nexgen give you when it collects personal information?

Nexgen is required by Privacy Law to take reasonable steps to ensure that you are made aware
of certain information when it collects personal information about you. For example, we are
required to:

  • tell you how to contact Nexgen;
  • make sure you are aware that we have collected the information (if we collect it from a third party without your knowledge);
  • let you know the purposes for which we collect the information, the entities that the information is likely to be disclosed to and whether the information will be transferred outside Australia; and

However, where we collect personal information in relation to a particular issue or matter, and the information we are required by the APPs to provide to you in respect of the collection is not likely to be obvious from the circumstances, we usually provide the required information in a ‘collection statement’.

    3. Applicability of policy to credit related information

We set out above some of the consumer credit information relating to individuals that we may collect.
The Privacy Act has certain specific rules about two types of consumer credit related information:

Privacy and Credit Reporting Policy

The clauses below describe how Nexgen Investment Group Pty Ltd Trading As Nexgen Australia – ABN 88 606 251 503 (“we”/”us”) may collect, use, handle and disclose your personal information. They also describe the privacy‐related matters to which you give your consent in applying for a rental facility from us. Your personal information will be treated in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (“Privacy Act”) as well as the Credit Reporting Privacy Code.

  1. The clauses below set out:
    1. Consents that you give us in relation to your personal information by applying for finance from us or otherwise in connection with credit that we offer; and
    2. Important information about our collection, use, disclosure and management of your personal information.
  2. We will ordinarily collect your personal information about you for the following purposes, and to the extent not already authorised by law, you agree to us using and disclosing that information for these purposes. This is dependent on the circumstances and the nature of the products and services you are obtaining from us:
    1. assessing and processing existing or future application(s) for credit and, where applicable, insurance or extended warranty products, managing your account or other products, responding to your questions and performing our obligations in relation to credit and insurance products provided to you;
    2. protecting us and our assets (including against fraud) and selling our assets (including by assigning any debts);
    3. enforcing our rights (including undertaking debt collection) in connection with any credit provided to you;
    4. considering any variation requests;
    5. managing, changing and improving our systems and processes;
    6. complying with laws. Various Australian laws may require us to collect your personal information, or we may need to do so to be able to comply with other obligations under those laws. These laws include: the Anti‐Money Laundering and Counter‐Terrorism Financing Act and other anti‐money laundering legislation (for example, for identity verification), the National Consumer Credit Protection Act (for example, for responsible lending), the Financial Sector (Collection of Data) Act, the Corporations Act (Cth) and other regulatory legislation (for example, requiring us to maintain client and transaction records, to provide information relating to loans to APRA and to make reports and provide other information to regulators such as ASIC) and the Taxation Administration Act, the Income Tax Assessment Act and other taxation laws (for example, to comply with information requests issued by the Commissioner of Taxation);
    7. marketing products and services provided by us and our related entities;
    8. developing an understanding of goods and services you may be interested in receiving from us and related entities;
    9. compiling statistical data, e.g. credit scoring information.
  3. We collect your personal information primarily from you. However, sometimes we may collect personal information about you from third parties for the purposes described above where it is unreasonable or impracticable to collect it directly from you, and we may do this on one or more occasions. For example, even though your application is for Commercial credit, we may collect information about you from a business which provides information about consumer creditworthiness for the purpose of assessing your application. Other third parties that we may collect your information from include the supplier of the Equipment; our agents; other credit providers; insurers; any of your employers, former employers, referees, banks, landlords, guarantors, accountants, lawyers and financial advisers; your executor, administrator or attorney; service providers to us (including debt collection agencies, introducers, private investigators, professional advisers); professional organisations; internet sources; public and subscriber-only databases; credit reporting bodies, any person considering purchasing the business or any credit facility (or any part of the business or credit facility) the subject of any of our products or any person to whom we may assign your credit contract/s (and their advisors and representatives); any person considered necessary in our view to execute your instructions; and government authorities. The circumstances in which we may do so include, for example, where we need information from a third party to assist us to deal with any application or request made by you (such as to verify information you have provided or to assess your circumstances) or to assist us to locate or communicate with you.
  4. The consequences of you not providing to us the personal information that we require can include that we will not be able to approve your application for credit or a related product, or that we will not be able to deal with future requests or queries from you in connection with credit we provide.
  5. You agree that we can disclose your personal information (including, where permitted to do so under the Privacy Act, your credit information and credit eligibility information) for the purposes described above to:
    1. Your co‐applicant (if any); any of our related bodies corporate; our assignees or potential assignees; the supplier of any goods or services financed with credit we provide; any other supplier appointed by us, credit reporting bodies or any business providing information about commercial credit worthiness; other credit providers; card issuers; your assignees or proposed assignees; debt collection agencies; banks and financial advisers; lawyers, accountants and other professional advisers; any suppliers or contractors to us who need to have access to our personal information for the purpose of providing services to us or you (including, without limitation, physical and electronic file storage suppliers, receivables management suppliers and data warehouses); any person specifically authorised by you in writing; and
    2. Any person as permitted or required by law.
  6. Some of the organisations to whom we may disclose your personal information (including your credit information or credit eligibility information) will be located overseas and may not have an Australian link. The countries in which overseas recipients are likely to be located currently include the Philippines and New Zealand (for an updated list of countries from time to time, please see our Privacy Policy and Credit Reporting Policy available on our website). You acknowledge that by consenting to us disclosing your personal information to overseas recipients, Australian Privacy Principle (“APP”) 8.1 will not apply to the disclosure (which means that we will not be obliged under the Privacy Act to take reasonable steps to ensure that an overseas recipient does not breach the APPs, and we may not be liable under the Privacy Act if the recipient does not act consistently with the APPs). By applying for this product, you consent to disclosures to overseas recipients.
  7. Our website at nexgen.com.au/cloud/ contains important information about credit reporting, including the credit reporting bodies that we deal with, credit information that we may give them about you (such as about defaults and serious credit infringements) and details regarding how those credit reporting bodies use and disclose that information to credit providers and their policies about managing the information. You have important rights regarding access, correction and complaints relating to your credit reporting information, as well as certain rights to prevent its use for direct marketing or where you have been a victim of fraud. You will also find details about these rights on the same page. You can also ask us to provide you with a copy of this important information.
  8. You also agree that we or any credit provider we choose can obtain, from any business providing information about commercial creditworthiness, consumer and or commercial credit reports about you for the purposes of assessing applications for commercial credit.
  9. You agree that we can disclose your name, residential address and date of birth to a credit reporting body so that the credit reporting body can provide an assessment to us of whether the information provided by you matches (in whole or in part) the information in the credit reporting body’s possession or control (which may include personal information held by the credit reporting body about you or other individuals). This will be done for the purpose of verifying your identity as required under Australia’s anti‐money laundering and counter‐terrorism laws where applicable. If you would prefer us to use another form of verification, such as your passport or driver’s licence, you must notify us and provide us with any information that we request.
  10. You agree to us using and disclosing your personal information (including your telephone number, regardless of whether it is listed on the Do Not Call Register and your email or other electronic addresses) to provide you with information about our other products and services and the products and services offered by our dealers, insurers (such as insurers who provide credit‐related insurance), our related companies or suppliers. This includes communicating with you via emails, text messages, phone messages or other electronic messages (without an unsubscribe facility). If you no longer wish us to use or disclose your personal information for these purposes, please tell us by contacting us on 1300 763 738.
  11. To protect your privacy, we recommend that any email address you provide to us be your personal email address rather than, for example, an email address accessible by your work colleagues or family members.
  12. You have rights to request access to, or correction of, personal information that we hold about you, including credit‐related information. You also have rights to make a complaint if you consider that we have not complied with the Privacy Act or Credit Reporting Privacy Code in relation to our information. Our Privacy Policy and Credit Reporting Policy sets out how you can make such requests or complaints and how we will deal with them. For details about our management of credit-related personal information (including credit reporting information) that we hold about you, please see our Privacy Policy and Credit Reporting Policy available by calling us on 1300 763 738.
