In most cases, the provision of your personal information is voluntary. However, some personal information is required to enable us to provide bp charge services and comply with our legal obligations.

 

If you choose not to provide your personal information, you may not be able to register for or use some or all bp charge services, receive updates from us, or have us respond to your enquiries or requests.

We may use your personal information or data collected in connection with your use of the bp charge app for the purposes set out in the NZ General Privacy Statement and for the following purposes:

  • respond to your enquiries and requests.

We may combine personal information we collect from you with information from other sources, including our related bodies corporate, to support these purposes.

We collect your personal information directly from you where possible. Where relevant, we may also collect your information from third parties, including:

If you provide us with the personal information of another person, you must make them aware of the matters set out in this privacy collection notice.

 

You are not required to provide personal information to us, but if you do not, this may affect the services we can provide to you or your use of bp charge.

We may disclose your personal information to:

We may share aggregated and/or de-identified data (including transaction data) with our commercial partners to improve bp charge and our customer experience.

bp will not provide your personal information to third parties for them to send you direct marketing (other than on bp’s behalf) without your consent.

 

We may use your personal information to promote products and services to you (including those offered by bp and our commercial partners), provide bp charge benefits, communicate about your transactions, and improve our offerings.

 

We may do this by sending you:

  • tailored advertising (including banner advertisements on websites and personalised advertising on social media platforms) about products and services that may interest you.

You can opt out at any time by using the unsubscribe or opt-out facility in the communications we send you.

 

Opting out of certain communications may limit our ability to provide some benefits, offers or services to you.
