GN Growth Partners Pty Ltd (Trading as GNG Partners) respects and upholds your rights to privacy protection under the Australian Privacy Principles contained in the Privacy Act 1988. This policy sets out what personal information we collect, how we use and disclose it, and the rights you have in relation to it.

This policy applies to any individual whose personal information we collect or hold, including clients, website visitors, and individuals who apply for a position with us through our website.

1. What information do we collect?

The personal information we collect depends on the nature of your dealings with us. This may include your name, contact details, and information relevant to the services we provide.

Where you apply for a position with us through our website, we also collect:

  • Your name

  • Your email address

  • Your phone number

  • Any information included in your cover letter / CV / resume / academic transcripts

We collect only the information reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose - for example, to assess a job application or to provide our services to you. Where additional information is required, we will request it separately and explain the reason for doing so.

Like many other websites, our website uses cookies. A cookie is information sent by our website to your browser that is then stored on your computer. It is used to identify your computer to us, and to remember previous requests you have made when you return to the website. This allows us to improve the functionality of the website for your return visits.

2. How do we collect it?

We generally collect personal information directly from you, including through our website, a job application form, or while providing or promoting our services. We may, on occasion, receive personal information about you from a third party, such as your organisation, a recruiter, or a referee, but only where this is expected in the circumstances or you have authorised that party to provide it to us.

3. Why do we collect and use it?

We use personal information for the following purposes:

  • To provide our services to you

  • To respond to enquiries and communicate with you

  • To review and assess job applications, and to contact applicants, including to arrange interviews

  • To verify qualifications and experience where relevant

  • To maintain records of our business dealings and recruitment processes

  • To consider job applicants for other suitable positions at GNG Partners, where they have consented to this

  • To meet our legal and regulatory obligations

We do not use personal information for unrelated marketing purposes without consent, and we do not sell personal information to third parties.

4. Who do we share it with?

Personal information is held within GNG Partners, and access is limited to personnel who require it to perform their role. We may also disclose personal information to:

  • Third-party platforms or service providers we engage to operate our business (for example, an applicant tracking system, IT provider, or payment processor) on a confidential basis

  • Referees, in the case of job applicants, and only after we have first discussed this with the applicant

  • Professional advisers

  • Regulators or authorities where required by law

We do not otherwise disclose personal information without consent, unless required or authorised to do so by law.

5. Do you send information overseas?

Certain service providers we engage to operate our business, including in connection with recruitment, may store personal information on servers located outside Australia. The relevant countries change from time to time depending on the service providers that we use, but most frequently they include the United States. Where this is the case, we take reasonable steps to ensure that personal information is handled securely and in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles.

6. How long do we keep your information?

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected - for example, to provide our services, to meet our legal obligations, or, in the case of unsuccessful job applicants, in the event a suitable position arises. Personal information is subsequently securely destroyed or de-identified. Individuals may request that their information be removed sooner, and we will action such requests where reasonably practicable.

7. How do we keep it secure?

Personal information is stored securely, whether held electronically or in hard copy, and access is restricted to personnel who require it to perform their role. We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, loss, and unauthorised access.

8. Accessing or correcting your information

You may request access to the personal information we hold about you, or request that it be corrected if it is inaccurate or out of date. Requests should be directed to our Privacy Officer using the contact details below and will be addressed within a reasonable period. Where we are unable to give effect to a request, we will provide our reasons.

9. Have a question or complaint?

Any complaint regarding our handling of your personal information should be directed in writing to our Privacy Officer using the contact details below. We will investigate the matter and respond within a reasonable period. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may also raise your complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC):
