Security & Privacy

How we protect your information

Your financial information is sensitive. Here's how we protect it and what you can do to keep your account secure.

How We Protect Your Data

256-bit Encryption

All data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using bank-grade TLS 1.3 encryption.

Australian Data Storage

Your data is stored on secure servers located in Australia, complying with Australian privacy laws.

Access Controls

Only authorised staff can access your information, and all access is logged and audited.

Data Deletion

You can request deletion of your data at any time. We comply with the Privacy Act 1988.

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security by requiring a code from your phone in addition to your password.

Setting Up 2FA

  1. 1

    Download an authenticator app

    We recommend Google Authenticator (iOS/Android) or Authy

  2. 2

    Go to Security Settings

    In your dashboard, click on your profile and select "Security"

  3. 3

    Scan the QR code

    Use your authenticator app to scan the QR code displayed

  4. 4

    Enter the 6-digit code

    Type the code shown in your app to confirm setup

  5. 5

    Save your recovery codes

    Store these codes safely - you'll need them if you lose your phone

Important: If you lose access to your authenticator app and don't have recovery codes, you'll need to contact support to regain access to your account.

Password Security Tips

  • Use at least 12 characters with a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols
  • Don't reuse passwords from other sites
  • Consider using a password manager like 1Password or Bitwarden
  • Never share your password with anyone, including us

Your Privacy Rights

Under Australian privacy law, you have the right to:

  • Access - Request a copy of all personal information we hold about you
  • Correction - Ask us to correct any inaccurate information
  • Deletion - Request deletion of your data (subject to legal requirements)
  • Opt-out - Unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time
