• restriction of access to data to only those staff that need access to carry out our business activities;
• training and ensuring that all our employees are required, as a condition of employment, to treat Personal Information held by us as confidential;
• whenever we collect Sensitive information such as credit card data, that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way using secure socket layer technology (SSL). You can verify this by looking for a closed lock icon at the bottom of your web browser, or looking for ‘https’ at the beginning of the address of the web page.

You should however, be aware that if you submit information to us electronically the internet is not a secure environment. We take reasonable steps to provide a secure channel for receiving information but cannot absolutely protect Personal Information before it reaches us.

When the Personal Information that we collect is no longer required, we will destroy, delete it in a secure manner, or ensure that the information is de-identified in accordance with our information destruction and de-identification policy, unless we are required by law to retain a copy of the Personal Information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

6. How individuals can access and correct their Personal Information held by us.

You have the right to seek access to any of your Personal Information held by us unless there is a valid reason under an applicable privacy law for us to withhold the information.

Valid reasons include where:

• we have reason to suspect that unlawful activity or misconduct of a serious nature has been engaged in and giving access would be likely to prejudice the taking of appropriate action in relation to the matter; or
• giving access would reveal evaluative information generated within us in connection with a commercially sensitive process; or
• giving access would have an unreasonable impact on the privacy of other individuals; or
• giving access would be unlawful.

Upon request, SPay will provide you with information about whether we hold any of your personal information. If your personal details change, or you believe the information we hold about you is incorrect, incomplete or out-of-date, please contact us so that we can correct our records or you can make the change on your Account Information page.
