ICE recognises an individual’s right to privacy and understands the protection and confidentiality of your personal information is important to you.

ICE has practices in place to comply with the 13 Australian Privacy Principles set out in the Privacy Act 1998. These principles govern how organisations handle personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines the type of personal information we collect, how that information is collected, used, stored, and protected and to whom we may disclose your personal information.

THE KINDS OF PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

The Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) requires us to collect your name, address and date of birth. The Government’s anti-money laundering laws may also mandate us to collect additional personal information from you.

We also collect some information from you when you use our website. Your use of the website will determine the amount and type of information which we collect about you. Some of this information will not be personal information because it will not reveal your identity.

The only personal information which we collect about you when you use our website is what you tell us about yourself, for example, by completing an online form or information you provide to us when you send us an email. We will record your email address if you send us an email.

HOW DOES ICE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION?

Personal information from investors may be collected by us (and, at times, by Equity Trustees Limited (“EQT”)) for the primary purpose of providing investors with an investment in either  funds or pursuant to an investment mandate agreement (including for the purpose of assessing your application and identifying you).  In addition, we may collect personal information about individuals who are not clients of ICE e.g. business contact details of a company representative with whom we deal.

WHY WE NEED YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

The personal information we collect may be used for the purposes for which it was collected and related purposes, including to:

    • verify your identity;
    • help us to administer and improve our products and services;
    • manage our relationships with you or our clients;
    • provide you or our clients with information about our products, services, the markets and developments that may interest you or them;

DIRECT MARKETING

We may send you direct marketing communications and information about products and services offered by us via email, or regular mail.

If you have provided us with your email address, we may send you emails relating to our services, or other industry specific information. You can unsubscribe from emails by clicking the unsubscribe link on the footer of the email communication you have received. We may use an “email management system” to automate the management and dispatch of these emails. The system operates by inserting tracking codes in the emails that we send to you. The tracking code allows us to collect personal information about you, such as whether you received and opened an email, and whether you clicked through to any links to our website. This information that we collect about you will be stored by our email management system.

We use the information that the email management system collects to;

    • ensure that you only receive correspondence that you have informed us that you wish to receive
    • ensure that the email address that you have provided us is still operational
    • determine whether emails that we send to you are received by you
    • update a request that you make to us to unsubscribe from a communication that we send to you
    • review the effectiveness and relevance of our emails to you by collecting other statistical information

We do not provide your personal information to any other organisations for the purposes of direct marketing.
