We try to ensure that all personal information about you that we collect, use or disclose is accurate, complete and up-to-date.
If you want to obtain access to any personal information and data that we hold about you, or believe any of your personal information that we hold is inaccurate, incomplete or it is not necessary to hold it, you can contact the venue you have interacted with using our system or alternatively email us at support@obeeapp.com and we will use reasonable efforts to provide it and, if required, correct it.

Security and retention policies
We are committed to ensuring the security of the information we hold about you. We take all reasonable steps to ensure that the information we hold about you is protected from misuse, interference and loss, and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. If you have requested your personal information to be removed from a particular venue's database we will take reasonable steps to destroy the information and/or ensure that the information is de-identified.
We maintain our servers in a highly secure server environment with 24/7 monitoring, surveillance and support to prevent unauthorized access and data security. Advanced security measures including firewalls, security protocols, security guards and surveillance are taken to ensure the continued service and protection of our services from natural disaster, intruders and disruptive events.
If you use the internet to communicate with us, you should be aware of the risks in transmitting information over the internet. We do not have control over information while in transit over the internet and we cannot guarantee its security. Any personal information that we no longer require is destroyed. An exception to this may be where records are retained to comply with legal requirements.
Eligible Data Breach
Obee has procedures in place to ensure that an eligible data breach is identified and dealt with as required by the Privacy Act Notifiable Data Breach scheme. An "Eligible Data Breach" occurs where personal information is lost in circumstances where access to or unauthorised disclosure of the information is likely to occur and a reasonable person would conclude that the access or disclosure would be likely to result in serious harm to any of the individuals to whom the information relates.
