In order for us to supply the products and services you have asked for, we need to collect certain personal information about you in a range of ways, including:

• When you provide it directly to us, for example, by submitting it to us via our website, via any electronic or paper forms you submit to us, or by you providing information to our representatives by telephone email, Live Chat or any social media networks through which you liaise with us;
• In the course of providing you with a requested product, service or benefit;
• From third party service providers, business partners, including, without limitation, commercial associates or credit reporting agencies; - from publicly available sources;
• From electronic tagging mechanisms such as cookies
• From our records of your use of the service;
• And when we are required to do so by law, for example, when we are required to verify your identity from certain documents before supplying a product, service or benefit to you.

amaysim stores personal information in a combination of computer storage facilities, paper based files and other records. In doing so, we have taken numerous steps to protect your personal information from misuse, interference and loss, and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

Additionally, we take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify personal information when we no longer need it.

At your request, we will provide you with a copy of any personal information which we hold about you. We may charge a fee for retrieving this information, in which case we will inform you of the fee and obtain your agreement to that fee before providing the information. Please complete and submit the Personal Information Request form (PDF) if you would like to obtain a record of your personal information that amaysim holds.

We may also accept a person who holds an appropriate Power of Attorney or Guardianship Order as an Advocate or Authorised Representative for your account, however you’ll need to forward a certified copy of the Power of Attorney or Guardianship Order along with the form that you send in.
