Travel Insurance
To arrange and manage your travel insurance, we (in this Privacy Notice "we", "our" and "us" includes Allianz, Allianz Global Assistance and Kango Cover) collect personal information from you and others (including those authorised by you such as your doctors, Hospitals and persons whom we consider necessary).
Any personal information you provide is used by us to evaluate and arrange your travel insurance. We also use it to administer and provide the insurance services and manage your and our rights and obligations in relation to the insurance services, including managing, processing and investigating claims. We may also collect, use and disclose it for product development, marketing, research, IT systems maintenance and development, recovery against third parties and for any other purposes with your consent.
This personal information may be disclosed to (and received from) third parties in Australia or outside Australia involved in the above process, such as travel
consultants, travel insurance providers and intermediaries, authorised representatives, reinsurers, claims handlers and investigators, cost containment providers,
medical and health service providers, legal and other professional advisers, your agents and our related companies. The use and disclosure of such personal information
will be provided to third parties for the primary purposes stated above. The personal information (but not sensitive information) may also be used for a secondary purpose,
but only if you would reasonably expect us to use that information for such secondary purpose.
When you give personal information about other individuals, we and our agents rely on you to have made or make them aware:
- that you will or may provide their information to us;
- of the types of third parties to whom the information may be provided to;
- of the relevant purposes we and the third parties we will disclose it to will use it for; and
- of how they can access it.
We rely on you to have obtained their consent on these matters. If you have not done or will not do these things, you must tell us or our agents before you provide the relevant information.
You can seek access to and correct your personal information by contacting us. You may not access or correct personal information of others unless you have been authorised by their express consent or otherwise under law, or unless they are your dependants under 16 years of age.
If you do not agree to the above or will not provide us with personal information, we may not be able to provide you with our services or products or may not be able to process your application nor issue you with a policy. In cases where we do not agree to give you access to some personal information, we will give you reasons why.
Web Site
Any information Kango Cover Pty Ltd collects in relation to you is kept strictly secured. We do not pass on/sell/swap any of your personal details with anyone. We use this information to identify your orders, provide you with our monthly newsletter (if applicable) and to personalise your shopping experience with us; that's all. Kango Cover Pty Ltd uses cookies to allow you to login to your account, maintain a shopping cart and to purchase items in your shopping cart. Cookies sent to your computer from Kango Cover only last while you're browsing our website. We do not store persistent cookies on your computer. Cookies also allow us to give you a more personalised shopping experience by displaying products that interest you throughout our product pages, thus providing you with a more friendly, interesting and enjoyable shopping experience.
Whenever you use our web site, or any other web site, the computer on which the web pages are stored (the Web server) needs to know the network address of your computer so that it can send the requested web pages to your Internet browser. The unique network address of your computer is called its "IP address," and is sent automatically each time you access any Internet site. From a computer's IP address, it is possible to determine the general geographic location of that computer, but otherwise it is anonymous.
We do not keep a record of the IP addresses from which users access our site except where you have specifically provided us with information about yourself, in which case we also record your IP address for security purposes. An example of this would be when proceeding to a checkout to finalise an order you may wish to make. After completing the form provided, your IP address will be stored along with a transaction number that allows us to track your order.
