We may collect personal information either directly from you, or from third parties, including from
our carefully selected retail partners. Where the information that we collect about you, your use of
the App or our other services, or our interactions with you, is not capable of identifying you it will

We may collect, use or disclose information about you in order to combine the information that we

better understand your preferences and interests, personalise your experience, enhance the
products and services you receive, and to tell you about products and services. We may also use
trusted service providers to undertake the process of creating these consumer insights.
We may use and disclose your personal information to offer you products and services that we
believe may interest you. We will not do this if you tell us not to. Unless you tell us not to, we may
disclose your personal information to our related companies or to other trusted business partners
so they can tell you about their products and services. We may also disclose your personal
information to other companies who assist us to market our products and services. If you don’t
want to receive marketing offers in this way please contact us using the details listed below.
We may disclose certain personal information to third parties that help us deliver our services
(including information technology suppliers, communication suppliers and our business partners)
or as required by law. We may also disclose your personal information to recipients that are
located outside of Australia, including to sponsors or promotors of competitions associated with
RainCheck. The countries where such sponsors or promotors are located may vary so if we do
