1. What is personal information and why do we ask for it?
‘Personal Information’ and ‘Sensitive Information’ have the same meaning as in the Privacy Act 2022. Personal information includes any information that can be used to personally identify you.

If we receive Personal information that SKYBIRD GROUP has not asked for or we decide is not reasonably needed, we will aim to de-identify or delete this information to protect your privacy.
