Cynch may collect your personal information including name, email or physical/postal address, telephone number, credit cards details, bank account details and general commentary about you.

Cynch primarily stores your personal information electronically, but may also hold on to some details in hardcopy for administration purposes. We use third party storage solutions (including cloud storage), and these solutions can result in information originally provided separately being combined together into single records. Some of the third parties are located in Australia and some in the United States of America.
Generally, we will collect personal information directly from you, and only to the extent necessary to provide tailored cybersecurity membership content and one-off services to your business and associated needs or to carry out our internal administrative operations.

Without this information, Cynch will be unable to provide the Membership or one-off Service. Your information may be shared with certain third parties contracted to assist in fulfilling our contractual obligations with you. Some of the third parties are located in Australia and some in the United States of America.
