Information We Collect and How It is Used

If you contact Bike Loans Australia, we may collect the contact details and other information you provide so that we can respond to your message or privacy request.

Bike Loans Australia provides general information, tools and resources. It does not accept finance applications, quote requests, eligibility assessments or borrowing enquiries for referral, or collect borrowing requirements to match visitors with brokers or lenders.

You may choose to subscribe to MoneyTips for financial information, news, guides and resources. A MoneyTips subscription is an informational subscription, not a finance enquiry or referral request.

We may use personal information where reasonably necessary to respond to your message, meet our legal or regulatory obligations, investigate a complaint, or manage the operation of our information-publishing website.

If you do not provide information needed to respond to your message or privacy request, we may not be able to assist with that request.

Disclosure of Personal Information

We may disclose personal information where reasonably necessary to respond to a website enquiry or complaint, comply with legal or regulatory obligations, or engage service providers that assist us in operating our website and business. We do not disclose your information to brokers, lenders or insurers to arrange a new finance or insurance referral through this website.

We do not currently disclose personal information to overseas recipients. If our information-handling practices change and personal information is likely to be disclosed to recipients outside Australia, we will update this Privacy Policy as required.

Please note: If you follow an external link or advertisement and provide information directly to another website or organisation, its own privacy policy and terms apply to that information.

We use Google Analytics 4 for analytics and measurement, and Google Ads website tagging and Microsoft Advertising UET for advertising measurement and conversion-related functionality.

Google Signals and Google Analytics user-provided data collection are disabled, as is personalised advertising through our verified Google Analytics-to-Google Ads links. Microsoft UET enhanced conversion tracking and Microsoft Clarity are disabled for the tag used on this website, and there are no remarketing audiences or lists based on it.

Where these technologies involve the collection, use or disclosure of personal information, we take reasonable steps to ensure that they are used consistently with applicable privacy requirements. We seek to limit the information collected to what is reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Where additional consent is required for particular tracking or advertising technologies, we may provide additional notices or consent controls when you use the website.

Security and Retention of Personal Information

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information we hold from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification and disclosure. These measures may include access controls, secure systems, authentication measures and other technical and organisational safeguards appropriate to the information being handled.

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including responding to website enquiries and privacy requests, maintaining appropriate business and compliance records, resolving complaints and meeting legal or regulatory obligations.

When personal information is no longer required to be retained, we take reasonable steps to securely destroy or de-identify it, subject to any legal or record-keeping requirements.

Access and Correction of Personal Information

You may request access to the personal information we hold about you at any time. We will not charge any fee for making a request but may charge you reasonable costs incurred in providing access, such as photocopying or postage.

You may also request correction of your personal information if you believe it is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete or misleading. We will respond to access and correction requests within a reasonable timeframe.

To make a request, please contact us. We may ask you to submit your request in writing or provide information necessary to verify your identity before providing access to personal information.
