SECTION 1 –WHAT DO WE DO WITH YOUR INFORMATION?

We have adopted the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cwth) (the Privacy Act). The APPs govern the way in which we collect, use, disclose, store, secure and dispose of your Personal Information.

A copy of the Australian Privacy Principles may be obtained from the website of The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner at www.aoic.gov.au.

When you purchase something from our store, as part of the buying and selling process, we collect the personal information you give us such as your name, address, contact phone number and email address in our retail manager system. With your permission, we may send you emails about our store, new products and other updates. Credit card details are not stored by Canberra Sewing.

SECTION 2 –CONSENT

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, place an order, arrange for a delivery or track a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only. If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like sending you newsletter and other emails, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say no. If after you opt-in, you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you, for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your information, at any time, by contacting us, by using our contact form or by using the unsubscribe function in MailChimp.

SECTION 3 – DISCLOSURE

We will only disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our Terms of Service.

SECTION 4 –THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions. For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers. In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located a different jurisdiction than either you or us.

If you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located. As an example, if you are located in Australia and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.

Once you leave our store’s website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service. Links: When you click on links on our store, they may direct you away from our website, e.g. to product vendors. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites and encourage you to read their privacy statements.

SECTION 5 –SECURITY

To protect your personal information, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to make sure it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed. We do not store your credit card information.
