Links to third parties{yellow-border}
Using Fingerprint, Face or Iris recognition technology{yellow-border}
If you are using a smartphone that uses fingerprint, facial recognition, or similar biometric identifiers ("Biometric Identifier") in order to authenticate you, you can enable this technology for our app. Enabling this technology for our app means that you can access the app using your biometric features instead of using your PIN or secret answers as an additional measure. We may still prompt you to enter your PIN or secret answers as an additional security measure.
You must not enable this technology using Biometric Identifiers to access our app if you have someone else's Biometric Identifiers stored on your device.
You must disable biometric recognition technology for use in connection with our app prior to allowing any other person to store their Biometric Identifier on your device.
If you:
- let any other person's Biometric Identifier be registered on your device;
- share your passcode with any other person; or
- register a Biometric Identifier on your device in circumstances where you are aware that another person is or may be able to use their biometric information to access the device, you are taken to have authorised that person to transact on your account. This means that any transaction initiated by that person using the passcode or Biometric Identifier will be authorised by you, you will be responsible and liable for such transaction, and the BOQ Account Terms and Conditions (with respect to deposit accounts) will not apply.
You understand and acknowledge that this can result in significant loss or liability to you.
Despite us allowing you to enable this biometric authentication technology for use in connection with our app, we are not responsible for any malfunction of that technology, or if the hardware provider of your device makes changes to the technology that impacts the way you access our app.
You will still be able to access our app using your PIN or access code and you must continue to protect your PIN or access code as outlined below under ‘Securing your account'.
Securing your account{yellow-border}
You must not
- use a device that is not your own and is not secured to download and access the app;
- voluntarily provide your PIN, access code, or security information to anyone. This includes family members, accountants, financial planners or anyone else you consider should be authorised to access your account details;
- select a PIN or access code that is easy for another person to guess, observe or deduce. For example, your PIN or access code must not be repeated, ascending or descending numbers or representation of your date of birth or recognisable part of your name;
- provide security questions and answers that other people will be able to know. It is important that only you are able to provide this information; or
- write down, record or store your PIN, access code, or any of your security questions and answers anywhere including on your device.
Keeping your mobile device secure{yellow-border}
BOQ requires you to take appropriate measures to appropriately secure your mobile device and any information stored on it, including
- Setting your mobile device to lock after a short period of non-use;
- Using a strong, secret PIN/passcode and/or fingerprint, facial or iris detection;
- Signing out of websites when you have finished browsing; and
- Using Apple's Find My or other device managers for Android, to help locate your phone and wipe the data where you suspect your device may be lost or stolen.
Use of Apps{yellow-border}
You should
- only install apps from official stores, such as Apple's App Store or Google Play (for Android phone or tablet).
- check the name of the publisher before downloading an app.

Notifications and using your location data{yellow-border}

Suspension or termination{yellow-border}
We can suspend or terminate access to our app, or not process a transaction without notice, if in our reasonable opinion
- you are using our app in connection with unlawful means, including fraudulent conduct, or in any way that might cause you or us to lose money;
- we consider to do so is reasonably necessary to comply with laws in Australia or overseas, card scheme rules or manage regulatory risks (including money laundering or sanctions risks);
or
- you gain or attempt to gain unauthorised entry into BOQ's systems, you misuse passwords, or you misuse any information or material posted within the app.
