5. Connecting you with real-estate agents
An important part of Agent Partner’s service is helping property owners find suitable real-estate agents.
When you submit your details to Agent Partner requesting assistance with selling your property, you authorise us to use the information you provide to assess your requirements and identify agents who may be suitable.
Where appropriate, we may provide relevant information about you and your property to one or more selected real-estate agents or agencies.
This information may include:
- Your name
- Phone number
- Email address
- Property address
- Property type
- General property information
- Selling timeframe
- Reason for selling
- Your stated requirements
- Other information reasonably relevant to the proposed sale.
The purpose of providing this information is to enable the selected agent or agents to understand your requirements and contact you regarding your property.
You may therefore receive calls, emails or other communications from agents we introduce to you.
Our intention is to connect you with suitable agents rather than distribute your details indiscriminately to a large number of agents.
The number of agents we recommend may vary depending on your property, location, circumstances and the availability and suitability of agents.
You remain in control of whether you appoint an agent.
Agent Partner does not require you to appoint any agent we introduce.
6. How we select agents
To identify potentially suitable agents, we may consider factors including:
- Local market knowledge
- Recent sales performance
- Experience with similar properties
- Property type experience
- Auction and private-treaty results
- Buyer database and market reach
- Marketing capability
- Communication and service
- Reputation and client feedback
- Proposed fees and commission
- Other information relevant to the suitability of an agent.
Our agent recommendations are intended to assist you in making a more informed decision.
They are not a guarantee of a particular sale price, sale timeframe or outcome.
You are responsible for making the final decision about which agent, if any, you appoint.
7. Our referral arrangement
Agent Partner provides its service to sellers at no cost to the seller.
Where a seller appoints an agent introduced by Agent Partner, Agent Partner may receive a referral payment from that agent or agency, generally from the agent’s commission.
This referral arrangement does not create an obligation for you to appoint an agent recommended by us.
We may use information about your enquiry and the outcome of an agent introduction for legitimate business purposes, including administering and verifying our referral arrangements.
8. Disclosure of personal information
We may disclose personal information to third parties where reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
These third parties may include:
Real-estate agents and agencies
As described above, we may provide relevant information to selected agents so they can contact you regarding your property and potential sale.
Service providers
We may use third-party service providers to help operate Agent Partner, including providers of:

- Information technology
- Cybersecurity and technical support.
Professional advisers
Where reasonably necessary, we may disclose information to professional advisers such as accountants, lawyers, insurers and consultants.

We may disclose information where required or authorised by law, regulation, court order or other lawful authority.
Business transactions
If Agent Partner is involved in a merger, acquisition, sale, restructuring or other business transaction, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable privacy laws.
We do not sell your personal information as a standalone database to third parties.

If you are not satisfied with our response, or believe your complaint has not been adequately addressed, you may contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).
The OAIC can be contacted through: www.oaic.gov.au
We generally ask that you contact Agent Partner first so that we have an opportunity to investigate and resolve your concern.
19. Anonymity and pseudonyms
You may generally contact Agent Partner without identifying yourself or by using a pseudonym where it is lawful and practicable to do so.
However, because our agent-matching service requires information such as your contact details and property information, we may not be able to provide certain services or connect you with an agent unless you provide the information reasonably required for that purpose.
20. Automated decision-making
Agent Partner may use technology to assist with analysing property information, agent performance information, website interactions or other information.
We do not currently intend to make decisions solely through automated processing where such a decision would reasonably be expected to significantly affect an individual’s rights or interests.
Where applicable privacy laws require us to provide additional information about automated decision-making, we will update this Privacy Policy accordingly.
21. Children
Our services are intended primarily for adults.
We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children.
