How we manage your information
Collection and use of your information
Platt Developments Pty Limited and its representatives will only seek to collect necessary information from you in order to provide you with the credit assistance you have sought from us. We may also use this information for purposes associated with our services such as follow-up calls to assist you.
In some cases, we may seek to collect credit information about you. If we do this, it will only be from an Australian Credit Reporting Body and only with your consent, which we will ask you to provide by signing the form over the page.
We receive services to support the broking services we give you.
We receive mortgage aggregation services from PLAN Australia [and compliance services from our Licensee, QED Credit Services]. Sometimes they collect personal information about customers to manage customer enquiries or complaints, commission payments or file reviews.

Disclosure of personal information
Platt Developments Pty Limited and its representatives will never unnecessarily exchange your personal or business information with any third party for any reason, unless compelled by force of law. However, in order to assist you, we may be required to provide your personal information to certain organisations. If your information is not provided, we may be unable to assist you. The types of organisations include:
- Lenders
- Our Licensee
- Mortgage insurers
- Other mortgage intermediaries

- Other organisations that assist us such as printers, mailing houses, lawyers, debt collectors, accountants and other auditors
In certain, specific cases our Licensee may contract an external audit service provider to ensure we are meeting our obligations and commitments to you under the National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009 and this service provider may disclose your personal information to its team in India. You can be assured that we have full legal access to that overseas service provider as if they were domiciled in Australia, as required by the Privacy Act 1988.
