Effective from 1 May 2026, changes to New Zealand’s Privacy Act 2020 introduce new notification requirements when organisations collect personal information indirectly from someone other than the individual concerned unless permitted exceptions set out in the Act apply.

To reflect this, we’re updating our Privacy Statement to make it clearer how this works. We are also using the opportunity to clarify some other examples of when we use and share your information. When we refer to the ‘Privacy Statement’, we include the Cookies and Analytics and CCTV Notices as together, these three documents are our Privacy Statement.

Please note this update does not introduce new purposes for collecting the information.

We’ve updated the ‘Types of information we collect’ section of our Privacy Statement to provide clearer examples of the kinds of information we may collect. 

Most of these updates are not new but are expanded examples to provide additional transparency. Some updates are new, such as information we are legally required to collect which now includes the new Customer and Product Data Act 2025 for open banking.

We’ve updated the ‘How we collect information’ section to provide more transparency where we may receive personal information indirectly from another person or organisation, rather than directly from you. A lot of this information was already set out in our Privacy Statement but in this update, we have included further examples of indirect collection and some more detail as to the people or organisations we may collect information from.

Updates to the ‘Sharing your information’ section are again mostly not new, but are expanded examples to provide additional transparency and be consistent with the other updates in the document. 

The updated documents will be available from 1 May on Privacy at ANZ or by request from an ANZ branch.

Notice published 12 March 2026

New legislation means incorporated societies in New Zealand need to take action to continue operating as an incorporated society.

Under the Incorporated Societies Act 2022, all incorporated societies registered before 5 October 2023 must re‑register with the New Zealand Companies Office by 5 April 2026. If a society does not re‑register by this date, it will cease to exist as an incorporated society.

The Incorporated Societies Act 2022 introduces updated governance and reporting requirements for incorporated societies, including:

• A requirement to re register under the new Act
• A constitution (previously called “rules”) that meets the Act’s requirements 
• A governing committee responsible for managing the society
• Clearly defined officer duties
• Dispute resolution procedures set out in the constitution
• Ongoing annual reporting and record keeping obligations.

More information about the law changes is available on the New Zealand Companies Office website.

Reregistering with no changes

If your society reregisters under the new Act and there are no changes to your governance, officers, signatories, or how your accounts are operated, you don’t need to contact us. Your banking with ANZ can continue as usual.

Reregistering with changes

To make sure you don't lose access to your accounts, let us know if your society changes any of the following as part of reregistration so we can update your banking details:

• committee members
• officers
• signatories
• account authorities
• operating rules under its constitution.

If, as part of reregistration, your society:

• changes its committee members, officers, or signatories
• changes account authorities or operating rules

you’ll need to let us know so we can update your banking details and ensure continued access to your accounts.

Continuing as an unincorporated society

Some societies may decide not to re‑register under the Incorporated Societies Act 2022 but still want to continue operating as an unincorporated society. If this applies to you, it’s important to contact us. We’ll work with you to understand your new structure and what changes may be required to your accounts, authorities and ongoing banking arrangements.

Converting to a different entity type

Some societies may choose to transition to a different legal structure, such as a charitable trust. This typically requires new account arrangements and updated documentation. Please contact us as early as possible so we can help support you through the transition.

Closing your society

If your society is winding up and does not intend to continue operating, please contact us so we can help you close accounts and manage any remaining obligations.

If your society does not reregister with the Companies Office by 5 April 2026, it will be removed from the Incorporated Societies Register and cease to exist as a legal entity.

In this situation, we will freeze your accounts and you will not be able to make payments or operate your accounts. You will need to contact us if this occurs. We can help you close accounts and manage any remaining obligations.

You only need to contact us if your society:

• decides not to re‑register
• changes its entity type (for example, to a charity)
• updates its governance, officers, or signatories
• is winding up or closing.

If your society re‑registers under the new Act and your details remain the same, you don’t need to contact us.

If your society’s details are changing or you’re unsure what applies to you, please:

• Contact your ANZ Relationship Manager, or
• Visit a branch or contact ANZ Business Banking on 0800 269 249 

We’re here to help support you through these changes and minimise disruption to your banking.
