Privacy Statement
August 2024
This statement applies to all websites that we own or operate and to all services and products we provide in online, mobile, and in-person delivery formats.
When we refer to ‘we’ (or ‘our’ or ‘us’), that means SFARP Group Pty Ltd and all its majority-owned subsidiaries, including:
- Riskfacta
- Riskfacta Labs
- Riskfacta Consulting
- Nuffield Group
- Nuffield Consultants
When we say ‘personal data’ we mean identifiable information about you, like your name, email, address, telephone number, bank account details, payment information, support queries, community comments and so on. If you can’t be identified (for example, when personal data has been aggregated and anonymised), then this notice doesn’t apply. Check out our terms of use for more information on how we treat your other data.
We may need to update this notice from time to time. Where a change is significant, we’ll make sure we let you know – usually by sending you an email.
You can read the whole notice below, or if you have little time, you can jump to the section you need using the navigation menu.
How we collect your data
When you visit our websites or use our services, we collect personal data. The ways we collect it can be broadly categorised into the following:
- When you use our websites, products, and services, we might ask you to provide us with personal data. If you don’t want to provide us with personal data, you don’t have to, but it might mean you can’t use some parts of our websites, products and services.

- We collect most of the information we collect directly from you. Sometimes, we might collect personal data about you from other sources, such as publicly available materials or trusted third parties like our insurance and risk control partners. We use this information to supplement the personal data we already hold about you, to better inform, personalise, and improve our services, and to validate the personal data you provide.
Where we collect personal data, we’ll only process it:
- to perform a contract with you, or

- in accordance with a legal obligation, or
- where we have your consent.
If we don’t collect your personal data, we may be unable to provide you with all our services, and some functions and features on our websites may not be available to you.
If you’re someone who doesn’t have a relationship with us but believes that a Riskfacta subscriber has entered your personal data into our websites or services, you’ll need to contact that Riskfacta subscriber for any questions you have about your personal data (including where you want to access, correct, amend, or request that the user delete, your personal data).
