Credit information will be dealt with in accordance with this Privacy Statement and our Credit Reporting Policy applicable at the time of your application for commercial credit.

2 - What is your personal information?

“Personal Information” is a term defined in New Zealand and Australian Privacy Acts. In general terms, it is any information that can be used to personally identify you.
