Cookie Policy

Last updated: October 1, 2025

Career Money Life (CML) is committed to protecting the privacy of individuals who visit the Career Money Life websites (Sites), purchase our products/services and who register to use our services.

This Cookie Policy provides information about how CML uses cookies and other similar technologies when you create or access an account through any of our Sites as well as all international domains and subdomains and/or any other CML owned or controlled websites.

What are Cookies?

A cookie is a small data string our server downloaded onto your device. Cookies on CML Sites may set a unique identifier, or collect user preferences and profile information. CML’s server will query your browser to see if there are cookies previously set by CML Sites. A cookie cannot be used to access or otherwise compromise other data on your device.

How We Use Cookies and/or other similar technologies

We use both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) and other technologies to help us collect information such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, access times, referring/exit web site addresses, and information regarding your experience with CML Sites to enhance your experience using the Sites.

We may use cookies for various purposes, including:

  • To help you navigate CML Sites;
  • To facilitate the sign up and login process for CML Sites;
  • To personalize your experience;
  • To analyse which pages are visited most frequently;
  • To measure advertising and promotional effectiveness; and
  • To detect and prevent invalid traffic

If you do not want CML to deploy cookies in your browser, you can opt out by setting your browser to reject cookies or to notify you when a web site tries to put a cookie in your browser software. This will not affect your ability to use the CML Sites, except in some cases where cookies are used as an essential security feature necessary for transaction completion and may be required to complete certain functions. In most cases there are no industry standard options for disabling cookies without completely disabling the functionality and features they add to the site. It is recommended that you leave on all cookies if you are not sure whether you need them or not, in case they are used to provide a service that you currently use or may wish to use in the future.

Necessary Cookies

Some cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site may not then work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.

Examples of this type of cookie include:

  • Account Registration - If you create an account with us, we may use cookies for the management of the enrolment process and the general administration of the account. These cookies will usually be deleted when you log out however in some cases they may remain afterwards to remember your site preferences when logged out.
  • Account Login – We use cookies when you are logged in so that we can remember this fact. This prevents you from having to log in every single time you visit a new page. These cookies are typically removed or cleared when you log out to ensure that you can only access restricted features and areas when logged in.
  • Order Placement & Processing -- CML sites offer the ability to purchase services and some cookies are essential to ensure that your order is remembered between pages so that we can process it properly.
  • Fraud Prevention and traffic validation – we may have cookies or tags to detect and prevent fraudulent or malicious traffic coming to our Sites.
Third Party Cookies

CML Sites use third party applications such as Google, AWS, Zendesk, Stripe and Mapbox to deliver services and features on the Sites. These third-party applications can also use cookies that help us improve your experience and allow us to understand how you use a site.

These cookies may allow CML Sites to remember information you have entered and your preferences, in order to provide a personalised experience as you use and move around the Sites. These cookies may also track things such as which pages you visit and for how long.

If you do not allow these cookies then some services and features may not function properly.

Disabling Cookies

You can prevent the setting of cookies by adjusting the settings on your browser (see your browser Help for how to do this). Be aware that disabling cookies will affect the functionality of this and many other websites that you visit. Disabling cookies will usually result in also disabling certain functionality and features of CML Sites. We recommend that you do not disable cookies.

What is Privacy?

Information privacy is about giving individuals some control over when, how and to what extent information about themselves is communicated to others.

By using the website and services, you agree to the collection and use of your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not use the website or the services.

Data Protection Principles

Our approach to data protection is built around five key principles:

Lawfulness, fairness and transparency: We abide by the Privacy laws of the jurisdictions we operate and provide full transparency of your data and how it is used.

Data purpose & minimization: We only collect and process sufficient date to deliver the services that you elect to use, and this is communicated to you throughout your journey with us.

Accuracy: We provide you with the tools to keep your data accurate and up to date.

Retention: There is a time limit to our storage of your Personal data.

Accountability, integrity and confidentiality: Your data is important to us. We accept the responsibility that comes with processing your personal data, and adopt accepted industry standard security practices to keep it secure.

Please note that your removal from these communications will only apply to the sharing of your information in the future and not to information that may have already been shared with third parties, as provided in this Privacy Policy. You may need to contact third parties that may contact you directly to request not to receive future communications.

Unless you tell Career Money Life not to, Career Money Life may use your personally identifiable information to contact you with information it thinks you would be interested in. If you do not want to receive this information, indicate that Career Money Life may not do so at the point where you give Career Money Life your personally identifiable information. If you change your mind later, email Career Money Life. Email messages will also provide you with an opportunity to opt-out of receiving this information. Please note that changes to your preferences may not be effective immediately.

If Career Money Life is sold to, or merges with, another company, or declares bankruptcy, some or all of the information collected from you may be transferred to a third party as a result of the transfer of assets.

Terms of Use Career Money Life Pty Ltd Website

Effective 1 July 2014

The Career Money Life Websites (www.careermoneylife.com , careermoneylife.ca, careermoneylife.com.au) are owned and operated by My Outplacement Pty Ltd (ABN 96164289758) herein referred to as "Career Money Life". These terms and conditions apply to the use of the Websites, and refer to all Services which are promoted or ordered on the Websites.

1. Use of Website and Ordering Services

When you sign in and use this Website, or order a Service, and tick the box that says 'I understand and agree to the Terms and Conditions of this service', you become legally bound by these terms and conditions. Please do not proceed to use the Website or order a Service until you have read, understood and accepted these terms and conditions. We reserve the right to change these terms and conditions without notice. Your continued use of the Website or the Services after such changes are published on the Websites will constitute your agreement to such changes.

2. The Services

Career Money Life promotes a range of services on the Website including some services where it acts as an agent for independent service suppliers (known as ‘Service Suppliers’) that supply career transition, outplacement, money related and health and wellness services to customers (collectively, the 'Services'). Registration on a third-party website, operated by the independent service supplier, may be required to use some Services. Career Money Life may require proof of identity, via an email address and password, prior to the ordering of the Services. Eligibility restrictions, if any, will be noted when registering for each Service. Career Money Life will keep a record of all Services ordered by you.

3. Seven Day Change-of-Mind Order Cancellation and Refund Policy

If you have ordered a Service from the Career Money Life Website and you have since changed your mind about the Service you have chosen you can cancel your order within 7 days of the order date and receive a refund of your credit.

Conditions of Refund:

  • Refunds are only permitted for Services that have not been used or expired, i.e. where a Service is yet to be provided or where a Service which has been purchased with an expiry date, that date has not passed.
  • The refund will be processed back to the account from which it was ordered as credit to purchase other Services. No cash refunds will be provided where the Service was purchased with credits. If a Service was purchased in part or in full using a credit card, a refund equal to the value of the purchase processed on the credit card will be credited back to the same credit card.
  • Any Career Money Life account credits used to place the order will be refunded in the same form of tender.
  • After the elapse of 7 days from the order date, no refunds will be granted for ‘Change-of- Mind’.

Guarantees and Warranties required by law

  • Career Money Life complies with the Australian Consumer Law in respect of guarantees and warranties for the promotion of Services on the Websites.
  • The independent Service Suppliers, who provide some of the Services promoted on the Website, accept responsibility for compliance with the Australian Consumer Law that their Service was provided with due skill and care, and complied with the description made to the customer at the time of order. Subject to the Service Supplier’s booking notice period, cancellation policy or other details specified by the Supplier at the time of order you may be entitled to a refund of whole or part of the price depending on the circumstances of each case.
4. Prices

Career Money Life reserves the right to change prices without notice. Once an order has been placed, prices will not change. All prices include Goods and Services Tax (GST) or VAT (Value Added Tax) at the current legislated rate.

5. Order Notification Online and Via Email

Career Money Life Life is not liable or responsible for any loss suffered as a result of a Service order notification via email being blocked by filters or firewalls, or where the incorrect email address has been entered by the customer into their online account. If the recipient does not receive the email notification of order, please contact us immediately so that we can send the order notification to an alternative email address.

6. Service Suppliers

Career Money Life has no responsibility for any service delivered, or not delivered, by independent Service Suppliers. Service Suppliers deliver services directly to customers. Career Money Life makes no guarantees, warranties or representation regarding the standard of any service delivered by a Service Supplier. All Services promoted by Career Money Life are provided subject to the terms and conditions of each Service Supplier and Career Money Life’s terms and conditions. Career Money Life does not control the business operations of Service Suppliers.

7. Modifications to the Website or the Services

Career Money Life reserves the right, for any reason, in its sole discretion, to terminate, suspend or change any aspect of the Websites or the Services including but not limited to services, content, features or hours of availability. Career Money Life may impose limits on certain features of the Websites or the Services, or restrict your access to part or all of the Websites or the Services without notice or penalty.

8. Availability of Services

All Services are offered by Suppliers subject to availability. Bookings of Service sessions should be made with the Supplier at a mutually agreed time. Bookings are not finalised until you have received an email confirmation or other means of confirmation from the Supplier which confirms your booking. Please be advised that some Service Suppliers display availability dates on the Website. These dates are guidelines only and may be subject to change. We suggest that you contact the Supplier as soon as you have ordered the Service to confirm a mutually agreed time. If no mutually agreed time can be agreed, you will then be able to cancel the Service and be refunded your credit (subject to cancellation occurring within 7 days of the order date).

9. Contact Details Given to Service Suppliers

It is your responsibility to ensure you enter your email address and other contact details correctly in your online account on the Website. Failure to do so may result in loss or incorrect delivery of the email notification of your order. As the Service Supplier will be expecting you to contact them, you may end up forfeiting your Service (subject to the Supplier’s terms and conditions).

10. Cancellations

Following the initial seven (7) day period after the order date, (where you can cancel without penalty,) if you cancel an order for a Service, you may incur a cancellation fee from the Service Supplier. Our Service Suppliers have their own cancellation policies displayed with their Service descriptions on the Website, which you are bound to follow. In some cases, cancellations by you may result in the loss of your credits completely if the Service Supplier is unable to re-use your booked session on the day. If a Service Supplier needs to cancel a Service for any reason, you will be notified as soon as possible in order to reschedule a convenient alternative date. Career Money Life will not reimburse any travelling, accommodation or other expenses incurred by you or any other person in the event of a cancellation.

11. Complaints or Problems with Service Delivery

If you have a problem or a complaint with the Service, please bring this to the Service Supplier’s attention immediately so that issues may be addressed. If this does not resolve your issue, please lodge a Service delivery dispute for the order in question in your online account and provide details of the dispute. Career Money Life will endeavour to resolve the issue with the Supplier, but will assume no liability for unsuccessful dispute resolution.

12. Service Supplier Insurance

Service Suppliers may describe on the Website that they maintain appropriate public liability insurance for risks associated with the provision of their Service. Career Money Life makes no warranty or representation about their Services or their insurance whatsoever.

13. Illustrations on Our Website

The images used on our Website to illustrate the Services are provided to us by Service Suppliers and are not necessarily representative of the Service promoted or ordered. Career Money Life makes no representation about the ownership of the images and assumes no liability for their use on the site by the Service Supplier.

14. Session Length

Service Supplier session lengths are approximate and are given by Service Suppliers as a guide to the time it takes to deliver the Service. Unless otherwise stated, there may be waiting time involved.

15. Expiry and Credit Use By Date

Expiry is when the credit balance associated with a Program to which you have been assigned is set to zero. The credit balance in a Program will expire on the Credit Use By Date which is published on the My Dashboard page of your online account on the Website. This date can be changed at the discretion of your Employer or of Career Money Life.

16. Account and Password

You agree that all account information provided by you is accurate and up-to-date, and you will promptly notify Career Money Life of any changes. You are solely responsible for protecting the confidentiality of your password and may not disclose your password to any other person. You are also solely responsible for all acts and omissions that occur in connection with your account and password, whether or not authorised by you. You agree to notify Career Money Life immediately if your password is stolen or otherwise passes out of your control so that access to your online account using the password can be terminated. Until you notify Career Money Life, you are responsible for all charges associated with the use of your account and password.

17. Endorsements

All Service marks that appear on the Website and the Services that are not Career Money Life marks are the marks of their owners. References to any names, marks or Services of third parties or hypertext links to third party sites or information do not constitute or imply endorsement, sponsorship or recommendation of the third party information or Service.

18. Monitoring

You agree that Career Money Life has the right, but not the obligation, to monitor, edit, disclose, refuse to post, or remove at any time, for any reason in its sole discretion, any material and content anywhere on the Websites or the Services. Notwithstanding this right, Career Money Life may not review all material and content posted by users on the Website or the Services and Career Money Life is not responsible for any material or content posted by customers or Service Suppliers.
