FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT GM HOLDEN'S USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION GENERALLY

(a) GM Holden's use and disclosure of personal information

Warranty

As part of the purchase of your new GM Holden vehicle, you usually obtain GM Holden's new vehicle warranty. GM Holden collects personal information from your GM Holden dealer when you purchase your new vehicle so that GM Holden can ensure that any warranty claim is properly administered.

If you withdraw your consent to GM Holden collecting your personal information from your dealer for this purpose, this will affect GM Holden's ability to process your warranty claims.

Product Recalls

GM Holden collects personal information from your GM Holden Dealer when you purchase your new vehicle so that GM Holden can ensure that you are contacted as soon as possible in the event of a safety related product recall.

GM Holden Assist/Roadside Assistance/Extended Warranty

GM Holden engages contractors to provide GM Holden Assist, GM Holden Roadside Assistance and GM Holden's Extended Vehicle Warranty. GM Holden's agreements with these contractors require them to deal with your personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act. GM Holden Assist, GM Holden Roadside Assistance and GM Holden Extended Vehicle Warranty brochures provide you with more information about these services.

If you withdraw your consent to GM Holden disclosing your personal information to these contractors, this will affect GM Holden's ability to deliver these services to you.

GM Holden MasterCard

The GM Holden MasterCard is offered and administered by Westpac Banking Corporation. Westpac collects personal information from applicants and card holders and participating organisations, and discloses some of this information to GM Holden for the purposes of ensuring that card holders are able to claim their GM Holden MasterCard rebate when purchasing an eligible GM Holden vehicle. Please also see "(c) How is my personal information used?" below for further details.

If you withdraw your consent to GM Holden obtaining this information from Westpac, you will not be able to claim your GM Holden MasterCard rebate because GM Holden will be unable to collect or verify your entitlement to a rebate.

Customer and Product Surveys

From time to time GM Holden surveys its customers regarding their satisfaction with GM Holden's products and services and the products and services provided by its Dealers and contracted services providers, such as Roadside Assistance.

If you do not wish to participate in any survey received from GM Holden, please contact GM Holden's Customer Assistance on 1800 033 349 or email us at customerassistance.holden@gm.com. GM Holden will note your request and respect your wish not to receive any future surveys.

If you choose not to participate in surveys conducted by GM Holden, GM Holden is less able to improve its products and services and the products and services provided by its Dealers and contracted service providers.

Direct Marketing

From time to time GM Holden sends marketing materials to its customers and other people who have provided GM Holden with personal information about products and services offered by GM Holden, its Dealers and its affiliates.

If you do not wish to receive marketing materials from GM Holden or its affiliates, please complete the opt-out provision on the marketing information sent to you and return it to GM Holden (or contact GM Holden's Customer Assistance on 1800 033 349 or email us at customerassistance.holden@gm.com). GM Holden will note your request and respect your wish not to receive any marketing materials.

If you choose not to receive any marketing materials from GM Holden, you may miss out on special product and service offerings and opportunities.

Event Data Recorders

GM Holden vehicles, like other modern motor vehicles, have a number of sophisticated computer systems that monitor and control several aspects of the vehicle's performance. GM Holden vehicles use on-board vehicle computers to monitor emission control components to optimize fuel economy, to monitor conditions for air bag deployment and, if so equipped, to provide anti-lock braking and to help the driver control the vehicle in difficult driving situations. Some information may be stored during regular operations to facilitate repair of detected malfunctions; other information is stored only in certain collision events by computer systems, such as those commonly called event data recorders (EDR). The information from EDR's, if available, is used to improve customer and driver safety, better understand what happens to our vehicles in the event of a collision and shall be provided to the police on request.

Recruitment

If you send GM Holden an application for a job or resume, GM Holden will use this information to assess your application and may disclose this information to its related companies (both in Australia and overseas) and contracted service providers for purposes such as aptitude, psychological and medical testing and human resources management activities. As part of the application process you will be asked for your specific consent for GM Holden to obtain information about your pre-employment medical examination (including drug and alcohol testing) and psychological and aptitude testing and the use and disclosure of the results of those tests.
A refusal to provide any of this information, or to consent to its disclosure to GM Holden or to allow GM Holden to provide this information to the parties described above, may affect the success of your application.

GM Holden may also ask you whether you agree to your personal information being provided to GM Holden's related companies and affiliates overseas for other positions relevant to your qualifications and experience that may arise. For example, GM HOLDEN's operations in:

- Australia and New Zealand
- Asia Pacific
- Latin America and Middle East
