Our business partners have “KYC” and “KYB” obligations under the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter Terrorism Financing Act 2006. “KYC” stands for “Know Your Customer” and “KYB” stands for “Know Your Business” which means we are required to pass certain information to our partners so that they can verify that you are who you say you are and so they can comply with their obligations to monitor account and transaction activity. Our partners use additional third parties that specialise in cross checking your information and provide results to our partners and in turn, us.
When you subscribe to our products and services, we usually ask for, at least, your full name, date of birth, residential address, contact details and Australian business number.
