Sometimes we will collect personal information directly from you when we interact with you.

We may also request (and collect) personal information about you from, and share personal information about you with, public sources, like social media websites or public registers, and other third parties, such as:

  • third parties who introduce you to us, like introducers, brokers or motor vehicle dealers;
  • identification verification agencies;
  • credit reporting agencies;
  • your representatives or advisors, such as your solicitor or accountant;
  • any registered bank or other credit provider in New Zealand;
  • your past and present employers;
  • your past and present service providers, including your telecommunications providers;
  • government agencies and services, including NZ Customs Service, the Ministry of Justice, Department of Corrections, New Zealand Police, the Ministry of Social Development (including Work and Income), Immigration New Zealand, Inland Revenue Department, Kāinga Ora (and related agencies), NZTA’s Driver Check service, Housing New Zealand Corporation, Office of the Privacy Commissioner and the Commerce Commission;
  • anyone else we are required to share that information with in order to comply with any laws, rules or regulatory requirements;
  • external dispute resolution schemes, for example, if you make a complaint about us;
  • any person who has a guaranteed or given security in connection with, or who otherwise has a financial interest in, the product or service we have provided to you;
  • any third parties who provide services to us, including our IT providers, providers of mailhouse services, professional advisers, market research agencies and our own banks, and insurers;

You authorise us to request and collect your personal information from the third parties referred to above.

We might collect and share your personal information with these third parties on an on-going basis, for example we may elect to receive notifications about changes to your driver licence from NZTA’s Driver Check service and we will continue to collect and share information with credit reporting agencies while you we continue to have a relationship with you. This might include lodging a default on your credit file.  The credit reporter may keep that information and disclose it to its customers (which may include disclosing it to other lenders from whom you apply for finance in the future).

If we require information from you during the application process, and there is more than one applicant, we may share this information with the other applicants.

  • STORAGE AND RETENTION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Your personal information is stored electronically or in paper files.  Generally, we hold your personal information in New Zealand. Service providers (including cloud-based storage providers in New Zealand and overseas) may hold it on our behalf.

We take security measures to keep your personal information safe against unauthorised use, access and disclosure.  This includes the use of passwords and other identity controls.

We will only retain your personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, and as otherwise required for the purposes of satisfying our legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements, in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect of our relationship with you.

  • ACCESS AND CORRECTION

You have the right to ask for a copy of any personal information we hold about you, and to ask for it to be corrected if you think it is wrong.  If you’d like to ask for a copy of your information, or to have it corrected, please contact us at by telephoning us on 0800 808 003, emailing us on info@avantifinance.co.nz or writing to us at Avanti Finance Limited, 33 Broadway, Newmarket, Auckland 1023.

In some cases, we do not have to give you access to certain information.  If this is the case, we will tell you and we will explain why this is the case.

If we don’t think the information is incorrect, we will advise you of this and explain why.

You can ask credit reporters for a copy of any credit information they hold about you and to update it, if necessary.
