Terms of use

Draft, 14 October 2026. To be reviewed before the site is public.

What this site does

Second Look builds a summary of a registered New Zealand charity's finances from the annual returns that charity has filed on the public Charities Register. Calculations are done by code. A short written summary may be produced by an AI model from those calculated figures.

What it is not

A check is general information. It is not a rating, an audit, a valuation, or financial, legal or investment advice, and it has not been reviewed by a person. It is only as complete and accurate as the filed returns, which may be out of date, and it may contain errors. Please check anything important against the charity's own performance report and talk to a qualified adviser before making decisions.

Using the checks

You may read, print and share a check. Please don't present it as an official finding about a charity or as the view of Charities Services.
