This Privacy Policy describes how the KX Platform ("KX", "we", "our" or "us") collects, uses, stores, protects and shares information when you use our applications, websites and connected services.
Our privacy promiseWe collect information with purpose, explain how it is used, and design our systems to give you meaningful control.
The information we collect depends on the KX services you choose to use. We limit collection to what is reasonably necessary for those services.
Name, contact details, identification information and account credentials.
Services viewed, applications started, interactions and platform preferences.
Device type, operating system, app version, diagnostics and security signals.
Forms, documents, posts, survey answers, reports and other content you provide.
We use information to operate KX, give you a relevant experience and maintain the trust and safety of the platform.
Purpose mattersWe do not use personal information for unrelated purposes without an appropriate legal basis or clear notice.
When you access a government or county service through KX, the information needed to complete that service may be shared with the responsible institution.
The institution may act as an independent data controller for its service. Its own legal mandate and privacy requirements may also apply. KX displays the relevant service provider before you submit information.
KX enables posts, comments, polls, surveys, petitions and other participation features. Content you intentionally publish may be visible to other users.
Share thoughtfullyDo not publish identification numbers, financial details, medical records or other sensitive information in public conversations.
We may moderate content to uphold community standards, protect users, comply with law and keep participation constructive. Private drafts remain private unless you submit or publish them.
With your permission, KX may use approximate or precise location to show nearby services, county information, projects, opportunities, police stations and relevant community content.
Payment features may use approved payment processors and financial institutions. KX receives transaction references, amounts, status and other details needed to confirm and support a payment.
When you access Social Health Authority services through KX, health membership details, dependants, contributions, claims and coverage information may be displayed or processed to provide the requested service.
Access is limited, activity is monitored and health information is used only for authorised healthcare and administrative purposes.
KX Wallet information can include balances, transaction history, disbursements, deposits, withdrawals and account verification details.
We use this information to provide wallet functionality, secure transactions, investigate suspicious activity, provide support and meet applicable financial requirements.
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences, maintain sessions, understand performance and protect KX from abuse.
KX works with carefully selected technology, communications, payments, identity and public-service providers. We require providers handling personal information on our behalf to protect it and use it only for agreed purposes.
Links to external websites or apps are governed by their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them before sharing information.
Security is built into how KX is designed, developed and operated—not added at the end.

We do not knowingly collect children's information beyond what is necessary to provide an authorised service. If you believe information has been collected inappropriately, contact our privacy team.
We may update this policy as KX evolves or as legal and operational requirements change. Material updates will be communicated through KX or another appropriate channel.
