    TRUSTED

    Quick Verdict

    Best for: ANZ customers comfortable with behavioral monitoring

    Not For: Users who object to behavioral biometric tracking

    What It Means For You

    Tap and swipe patterns are continuously monitored by a behavioral biometrics service to detect fraud. In-app activity is shared with Adobe Analytics. Third-party services also handle identity verification, meaning personal data passes through providers outside ANZ directly.

    Method and Limitations

    Static analysis only. CITT reviewed the code of this build without running the app, so runtime behavior was not observed. The findings below describe the analyzed build and may not reflect server-side controls or later versions. CITT makes no determination about compliance with any law or platform policy; it reports what the artifacts contain and cites the published guidance so a reader can compare.

    What Data is Collected

    The app collects behavioral biometric data reflecting how a user physically interacts with their device, crash and performance diagnostics, in-app activity patterns, and personal details submitted during identity verification. Location data is accessed through Google Maps integration.

    Third-Party Data Sharing

    User data is shared with the following external services:

    • BioCatch - Receives behavioral biometric data for fraud detection
    • Adobe Analytics - Receives in-app activity for analytics
    • IDVerse - Receives personal details for identity verification
    • Firebase Messaging - Handles push notification delivery
    • Firebase Crashlytics - Receives crash reports and diagnostic data
    • Atomic SDK - Handles in-app messaging
    • Google Maps - Accesses location for map features
    • MLKit - On-device processing for certain features
    • Glide / Picasso / Lottie - Used for media rendering

    Positive Security Features

    • All data stored on the device is fully protected, earning a perfect score in data security
    • All network communications are fully secured, with no weaknesses observed in how the app transmits data
    • The app's code is well-structured with strong protections in place, reflected in the high code safety score
    • Behavioral biometric monitoring actively works to detect unauthorized access to user accounts in real time

    Areas for Improvement

    • Behavioral biometric data is shared with a third-party provider; the app gives users limited visibility into how long that data is kept or how it may be used beyond fraud detection.
    • Identity verification involves external providers, so sensitive personal details pass through services outside of ANZ's direct control.
    • User controls over data collection and sharing could be clearer, giving users more straightforward options to understand and manage what information is shared with third parties.
