This policy explains how we manage the personal information that Vert and Mehri Investments collects about you and how to contact us if you have any queries about how we manage your personal information.
The Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (“Privacy Act”) defines “personal information” as:
information or an opinion about an identified individual or an individual who is reasonably identifiable.
1. What personal information we collect
The kinds of personal information that we collect and hold about you depends on the nature of your dealings with us.
Generally, this includes:

If you are a prospective employee, please refer to section 8 of this privacy policy for details about how we collect, use and disclose the personal information relating to prospective employees.
2. How we collect personal information
We collect personal information about you in two main ways:
- You provide some of it directly (such as when you invest with us). We collect personal information that you share with us. You may choose not to provide the personal information that we request, but without such information, we may not be able to deliver the products, services and other assistance that you seek.
- We record some of it automatically (using cookies and similar technologies).
This happens when you visit our website. We use cookies to monitor and observe your use of our website, compile aggregate data about that use, and provide you with a more effective service. If you do not want your information to be recorded automatically, most internet browsers have a facility that will allow you to disable cookies altogether.

- to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations.
Vert and Mehri Investments does not sell, rent or trade personal information about you to or with third parties. Personal information may be disclosed outside of Vert and Mehri Investments to third parties who help us operate our business, such as funds registry and information technology service providers. It may also be disclosed to regulators of our business such as ITA or the Israel Taxation Authority.
4. How we store personal information
Vert and Mehri Investments aims to keep your personal information secure by taking reasonable steps to prevent it from being misused, interfered with or lost, and to prevent unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
5. Access to and correction of your personal information
