Fanquip takes reasonable steps to ensure that these organisations are bound by confidentiality and privacy obligations in relation to the protection of your personal information.
From time to time we may send your information overseas to Fanquip employees and to service providers or other third parties who operate or hold data outside Australia. When this occurs, we make sure that appropriate data handling and security arrangements are in place.

Personal information may be compiled with other information available from a wide variety of external sources (e.g. Australian Bureau of Statistics data), that can analysed to gain useful insights which can be used for any of the purposes mentioned in this section.
