Generally, we may collect personal information about you when you deal with us by email, letter, phone, in person at a vehicle repair centre or other location. If we ask for your personal information and you do not provide it to us, then we may not be able to provide you with the service you have requested, for example, to put you in contact with a Resilium Adviser.
25.2.10 If we collected your personal information through our Main Site, they will never be stored on any web server or computer system directly connected to the internet.
25.3 Security of personal information submitted to our Main Site
25.3.1 All personal information you provide to our Main Site or Mobile Site over the internet while inquiring about or obtaining an insurance quotation, or entering a promotion (as relevant) is passed through a secure, encrypted connection. The secure connection is over a protocol called secure sockets layer (SSL). Resilium uses the strongest form of SSL encryption (128-bit), which provides a very high level of protection against unauthorised access in order to prevent unauthorised persons from reading the information you send to Resilium while it is in transit over the internet. Once your personal information has been received at our Main Site or Mobile Site (as relevant), we take all reasonable precautions to securely pass that information to the Resilium mainframe computer or to a member of the Suncorp Group on behalf of Resilium, or in the case of a promotion, to our secure promotion database. These mainframe computers are not directly accessible through the internet, nor is our promotion database. No details you provide to us are stored on a web server.
25.3.2 When you make an online payment on one of our Online Sites your payment card number will be passed in a secure manner between our Online Site and one or more third party providers, such as the issuer of your payment card. Your payment card number will be recorded in a mainframe computer operated by Resilium or by a member of the Suncorp Group on behalf of Resilium, and will not be transmitted over the internet to payment card providers or payment providers. Neither Resilium nor any payment provider we allow will store your payment card details on any web server. If your payment card number is stored it will only be for Resilium or financial institution record keeping purposes (or otherwise as required by law), and then it will be stored with an even higher level of encryption.
25.4 Recruitment information
25.4.1 As part of our recruitment process, we will gather information on your background, including personal information that you include on your application or resume, such as your name, mailing address, telephone number, email address, career history, details of any competency tests or other information relating to your career.
25.4.2 In some circumstances, we may also collect sensitive information about you such as information about your membership of a professional or trade association or trade union; security clearance or any criminal record(s) or charges you may have had filed against you. When we need to collect this type of information, we will obtain your consent. If it is provided to us by way of your initial application, then your consent for us collecting it will be inferred.
25.4.3 There may be occasions when we obtain personal information about you from a third party; for example, when receiving the results of a psychological or competency test or assessment centre results. When we need to collect this type of information, we will obtain your consent prior to you taking part in the exercise.
25.4.4 In relation to the collection of personal information regarding references, we will not approach any referees without your specific permission or knowledge.
25.4.5 Please be aware, if you do not provide Resilium with the information we require, we may be limited in our ability to consider you for employment.
25.4.6 Unless permitted by law, we will only use your personal information collected in relation to recruitment for the primary purpose of employment with Resilium.
25.4.7 Should Resilium engage/employ third party contractors or vendors to perform recruitment services for us, which involve handling your personal information, we will take reasonable steps to prohibit these parties from using your personal information except for the purposes for which it was supplied.
25.4.8 In instances where Resilium engages a third party recruitment agency to assist with our recruitment efforts, we will ensure that their privacy policy commitments compliment ours.
25.4.9 Third Party Sites (including third party social media sites)
Our Online Sites may contain links to Third Party Sites (see term 2.1). Third Party Sites should contain their own privacy statements and those third parties are responsible for informing you about their security and privacy practices.
