PRIVACY POLICY



The New Zealand Automobile Association Inc ("AA") considers the protection of
privacy to be of utmost importance. Whether you’re an AA Member, customer or
other user of our products or services, we are committed to providing you with a
service that meets your requirements in a way that safeguards your privacy. We
appreciate the trust you have placed in us.

This policy explains how your personal information may be collected and used. It
also outlines some of the security measures employed to protect your privacy.

In this policy “We” or “Us” refers to the organisation making reference to this
Privacy Policy at the time that your personal information was collected. The
relevant organisation will usually be named in your product or service terms.
This organisation may be:

 * the AA; or
 * one of the AA’s subsidiaries, joint ventures, partnerships, contractors,
   franchisees or licensees involved in providing a product or service you have
   requested or indicated an interest in (“AA Partners”).

There may be additional privacy terms that you agreed to in relation to your
product or service. For other AA joint venture policy terms see also:

 * AA Home Limited Privacy Policy
 * AA Insurance Limited Privacy Policy
 * AA Money (AA Finance Limited) Privacy Statement
 * AA Smartfuel Limited Terms and Conditions


COLLECTION OF INFORMATION

We may collect personal information from you in a number of ways. This includes
when you:

 * Indicate an interest in or take a service from Us. This may include your
   contact details, date of birth, payment method and possibly bank details.
 * Contact Us directly or indirectly with an enquiry, or in response to a
   communication from Us, in which case this may tell Us something about your
   preferences.
 * Take a product or service from an AA Partner or third-party and receive a
   discount or benefit through your relationship with Us.


USE OF INFORMATION


WHAT WE WILL DO

We may, or other parties acting on our behalf may, use your personal information
for several purposes, including:

 * Providing you with products or services you have requested
 * Assisting to identify you when you telephone Us to make an enquiry. You may
   be asked for confirmation of personal details like your date of birth or
   address to confirm you are the right person
 * Responding to enquiries from you
 * Administration and contact about improvements to any accounts, services and
   products provided by Us or AA Partners previously, now or in the future
 * Preventing or detecting fraud or loss where We are able
 * Communicating with you by any means (including mail, email, telephone, text
   messages, social media or digital advertising) about other services or
   products, where We think you would appreciate receiving an offer from Us or
   AA Partners, or when the offer is made available through your association
   with Us
 * Conducting credit checks with licensed credit reference agencies when
   applicable to a particular service or product.
 * Carrying out research, marketing analysis and profiling and creating
   statistical and testing information
 * Monitoring and recording communications We receive. This may be done for:
   * identifying improvements to the products and services which We provide
   * ensuring compliance with Our practices and procedures
   * to provide evidence of a transaction or contract entered into.

It is the AA’s practice to search the Marketing Association Do Not Call and Do
Not Mail lists (as applicable) before sending any direct marketing material. If
you have registered your details on these lists, within 7 weeks of registration,
you will not receive any direct marketing material from the AA.

When you first provide contact information to Us, We will often give you the
opportunity to indicate whether you would prefer not to be contacted for
marketing purposes. However, you can send Us an email at any time to change your
preferences or use the unsubscribe or preferences links at the bottom of any of
Our direct marketing email communications.

Note that your communication preferences may need to be separately updated with
the AA and AA Partners.

Additionally, if you use the same email address as another subscriber, for
instance when you subscribe email address also used by another family member,
your unsubscribe request will apply to you personally, and will not unsubscribe
others receiving Our emails at the same email address.


WHAT WE WON'T DO

Unless you have agreed otherwise, We will not:

 * Send you communications that We do not believe are related to your
   relationship with Us
 * Disclose your personal information to other parties who do not need it for
   the purposes described in this policy
 * Sell/rent contact information lists to parties who do not need it for the
   purposes described in this policy


DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION

We may disclose information We hold about you to AA Partners or third parties
where:

 * We have contracted those AA Partners or third parties for the purposes
   described under “Use of Information” above
 * We are assisting an AA Partner to contact you about an entitlement you are
   due in respect of products or services you have requested of them
 * As part of the process of sale of one or more of Our businesses
 * Where legitimately requested or required for legal or regulatory purposes
 * As part of legal proceedings or prospective legal proceedings or
 * Otherwise with your consent.

We, and other third-party credit organisations, may also access information
about you to:

 * Help make decisions on credit, or credit related and insurance proposals and
   claims for you and other members of your household; and
 * Check your identity to prevent money laundering unless other satisfactory
   proof of identity is provided.


PROTECTION OF INFORMATION

you for identifying details such as your Membership number (the 16-digit number
found on your AA Membership card) if appropriate. You will need to satisfy the
identification requirements to be able to access or change information.
