If you do, you can still access our website, but not all services may be available.

3) How we disclose your information

3.1 We will not disclose your personal information, except:
(a) in law enforcement, public health or public safety circumstances, where required by law;

3.2 Some of the recipients we disclose your personal information to may be located in other countries, including Australia, New Zealand, China, the United Kingdom, the United States, and any other country in which our related bodies corporates do business. Before disclosing any personal information to an overseas recipient, we take reasonable steps to ensure that recipient complies with the Privacy Act or is bound by a substantially similar privacy scheme.
