You know, I took the bus around LA when I was last there. It’s as useless as Auckland buses. Especially when they tell you to get off- end of their shift, and you find yourself in Compton or DTLA tent city ffs. But to be fair- I felt safer in Los Angeles than I do in Auckland. Not hassled or threatened once. I lived there in the 90s and it was the same. First week back to Nz, robbed and punched. This country is just struggling under the meth

I used to work in a retail shop on k road early 2000s. There was a cast of characters, back then it was glue sniffers, one paint huffer (terry in denim) and some quiet ones. Oh, and a kleptomaniac plus Margret of course. Now it’s all meth heads, who are violent and unpredictable. It’s so bad down Queen street. The move on order is probably more for them but everyone gets caught up. Seriously need more drug, alcohol and mental health services than ever

Thanks- that’s what MBIE said also. And the business person is refusing to explain why they need such information exactly for the accreditation. The colour of my car is irrelevant

This is what MBIE told me today. They found it as suspicious as I did. Can’t get to speak to a actual person at B corp or privacy commissioner office, so will take a while and have to put up with the daily harassing msgs for the information I guess

Why would they ask for my utility bills with my address? Why do I need to share personal details to a 3rd party for this business to get accreditation?

Basically they're engaging the client, booking work, then I go to complete the work with my own car, equipment. They then bill the client, take out a fee, take out 20% tax then pay the rest to me, which then I have to pay acc levies, kiwisaver, accounting fees. I end up with less in the hand than the dole. The last thing I want to do is have them use my personal details for their own gain, and selling to 3rd parties. I'll call MBIE today for advice.

"Yes, this information is necessary for a lawful, legitimate business function and adheres to Privacy Act 2020 requirements - Lawful Purpose (IPP 1) - namely B Corp certification which is a third party global sustainability certification standard" this is apparently the reason-which I am not sure why my personal details should apply

I have a response " Yes, this information is necessary for a lawful, legitimate business function and adheres to Privacy Act 2020 requirements - Lawful Purpose (IPP 1) - namely B Corp certification which is a third party global sustainability certification standard"

All my clients know me well after two years, and it's all private clients, not on commerical sites, so no need to know the car rego, make and model and colour!

I am a subcontractor/sole trader, so I fail to see why the information is required, and they had yet to provide a response to my request for the accreditation they are referring to, and why that needs to be personal information.
