* Please refer to 'Sensitive information' in the 'Additional information' section below.

Our relevant staff will have access to your personal information where there is a genuine need to do so for our purposes and legitimate interests (refer to 'Why we collect your information?' above). Wherever possible, we anonymise information so that you are not identifiable.

If you are a student, we will share your information, including information relating to your health and wellbeing, with appropriate staff members if we are concerned about your engagement, academic progress, behaviour, safety, security or wellbeing (or the safety, security or wellbeing of others) under the Education (Pastoral Care of Tertiary and International Learners) Code of Practice 2021.

However, unless an emergency or other critical incident has occurred, we would usually only do this as a last resort, for example, if we couldn't contact you after a reasonable number of attempts or if our concerns were sufficiently serious to warrant it.

There are circumstances where we share other specific categories of personal information with external people and organisations. However, we only do this where it is strictly necessary for our Purposes and Legitimate Interests or is permitted or required by law, including the Privacy Act 2020 and Education and Training Act 2020.

We also take all reasonable steps to ensure that any information we share is used by the external person or organisation only for the purpose for which we shared it and, if possible, we anonymise information so that you are not identifiable.

Sometimes, we may need to share information with a third party outside New Zealand. For example, if you are going on an exchange and we need to share information with your host university or you study under a joint qualification arrangement with an overseas university.
