How your data is collected and managed

The Consumer Data Right (CDR) regulates the collection and handling of data in line with privacy safeguards and rules that:

  • ensure users' data is managed securely

  • provide users with control over how their data is shared and used.

Accredited Data Recipients (ADRs)

Sharesies is an Accredited Data Recipient (ADR)—an organisation approved under the CDR framework to receive and manage consumer data securely.

We are required to adhere to strict privacy and security rules, ensuring that your data is used only with your consent.

We are expected to:

  • transparently disclose how data is used

  • ensure secure storage and transfer of consumer data

  • implement privacy safeguards to protect user consent.

How this benefits you

  • Choice and control—you decide what data to share, how it’s used, and who it can be disclosed to.

  • Manage consent—you can view, modify, or revoke consents at any time.

  • Data deletion requests—you can request data deletion or de-identification.

Data usage under CDR

We may use the data collected under the CDR framework for:

  • Personalised services—tailoring to user activities.

  • Operational purposes—preventing fraud, detecting abuse, and generating analytical insights using de-identified data.

  • Communication—sending updates and notifications aligned with user preferences.

Data retention and de-identification

You have the right to request data deletion at any time.

Upon withdrawal of consent:

  • your data will be securely deleted

  • Redundant data will be destroyed (except for specific use cases when we are required by law to retain it for a longer period).

De-identification process

De-identification involves removing identifiable information while retaining anonymised data for operational purposes, such as analytics and fraud prevention.

Steps include:

  • Removing your personal information from transactions

  • Stripping timestamps and descriptions that reveal specific details

  • Aggregating data to ensure anonymity

We may use de-identified data for improving services, creating insights, and operational analysis.

Retention policy

We’ll always ensure your data is deleted or de-identified promptly when it is no longer required (either when your data sharing consent expires or within 24 hours of receiving a request to revoke consent).
