Insurers, accountants, lawyers, regulators or authorities where required by law.
Some providers may operate or store data outside Australia; we take reasonable steps to ensure comparable safeguards where information is held offshore.

8. Storage & security
We apply reasonable safeguards (access controls, encryption in transit where appropriate, limited retention). No system is 100% secure; we will notify you and relevant authorities of eligible data breaches as required by law.
9. Retention
We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes above and to meet legal obligations. Business records are generally kept for at least five (5) years, some longer.
10. Access & correction
You may request access to, or correction of, your personal information by contacting us. We will respond within a reasonable period, subject to permitted exceptions under the APPs.
11. CCTV drain footage & job images
Where we capture CCTV drain footage or job photos/videos at your property, we use these to assess faults, quote, complete works and maintain records/warranties. We can provide copies on request where reasonable (fees may apply for transfers).
