  I doubt they have updated any of their policies to the better of their "customers", so this should still be accurate.

  Be warned

  How we treat personal information that is also sensitive information
  Sensitive information is a sub-set of personal information that is given a higher level of protection under the Australian Privacy Principles. Sensitive information means information relating to your racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religion, trade union or other professional associations or memberships, philosophical beliefs, sexual orientation, sexual practices or sex life, criminal records, health information or biometric information.

  The types of sensitive information we may collect about you include:

  Your driver’s licence;
  Your passport or another form of photo identification;
  Your medicare number.

  This equates to a 100 point ID check.

  Energy retailers or any other retailer where you have purchased their products or services through us;
  Our White Label Partners where you use our comparison tool on their website;

  Our employees, contractors and/or related entities;
  Our existing or potential agents or business partners;
  Sponsors or promoters of any promotions or competition we run;
  Anyone to whom our business or assets (or any part of them) are, or may (in good faith) be, transferred;
  Credit reporting agencies, courts, tribunals and regulatory authorities, in the event you fail to pay for goods or services we have provided to you;
  Courts, tribunals, regulatory authorities and law enforcement officers, as required by law, in connection with any actual or prospective legal proceedings, or in order to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights;
  Third parties, including agents or sub-contractors, who assist us in providing information, products, services or direct marketing to you. This may include parties located, or that store data, outside of Australia including in India; and

  While we store personal information in Australia, where we disclose your personal information to the third parties listed above, these third parties may store, transfer or access personal information outside of Australia, including but not limited to, the United States of America, Ireland, United Kingdom, Netherlands, the Philippines and India.

  While each person should make up their own mind… a $150 or $100 gift card is not worth my private information.

    They're due. We are at about 95 days. 90 - 120 days is what they say.

      Did you guys sign up electricity and gas separately? I meant is it recommendable to signup electricity and gas separately? Thanks

        I did them both at the same time with the same provider. That doesn't change when or how the gift cards are sent out though.

          @Arnold1: Ok thank you.
