We collect the personal information which you provide to us. This may include your name, address, age or date of birth, telephone number, organisation, email address, or the amount you have donated.
To enable us to deliver our services, information may be obtained from data subjects (you) or provided by other users e.g. another user may want to thank you, even if you are not yet a TAP user, and mention you in their message to us.
We may collect information via forms on our website and our third party service provider websites (eg: Square), posters bearing a scannable QR code, by telephone, mobile phone, email or a member of our team may collect information from you in person whilst visiting your employer or during a demonstration of our services.
Additional information about you may be provided by you in subsequent contact with you via any of the methods listed above. Such information will only be stored and used with your expressed consent and only for purposes relevant to our services and only for as long as necessarily required.
We use personal information to provide specific services to you. We only use personal information for the purposes for which it has been obtained.

It is your right to choose the option of not identifying yourself or of using a pseudonym when using the Thank And Praise Pty Ltd platform. All messages are checked by our staff before publishing to ensure a positive environment.
We will not share personal information with any other parties, except where required to carry out statutory duties and functions or where required by law or where the intention of sharing is related to the primary purpose of collection. For example, if a TAP partner receives messages of thanks on their Thanking Wall or a donation through the TAP platform for their related cause, then it is reasonable that we share your personal information with them.
