5. Third Parties

  1. We use various third parties to enable us to provide the Goods. 

  2. We seek to ensure that all of our agreements with third party service providers contain appropriate safeguards in respect of your personal information however we may authorise a third party to use such data for their own purposes, however this will only be in relation to aggregated or anonymised data so that it will not be personally identifiable to you.

  3. Where you are outside of New Zealand, your personal information is transferred to New Zealand (which has an adequacy decision of the United Kingdom and the European Commission) and the other places referred to in this Policy.

  4. We also transfer personal information to other companies (being technology providers, providers of business and marketing services and providers of software tools used by us in our business) to provide services on our behalf. These third parties may be based in countries that do not have an adequacy decision by the United Kingdom or the European Commission.  For example, your personal information is stored on AWS servers in various countries including the United States.

  5. Our agreements with our third party providers contain appropriate safeguards in respect of your personal information, such as standard data protection clauses.  The third-party providers are also required to maintain the confidentiality of the information and are not authorised to use that information for their own purposes.  For more information on the transfer of personal information to other jurisdictions please read the section entitled “Cross-border data transfers”.

  6. We take all reasonable steps to store personal information and safeguard it against loss, misuse, or unauthorised disclosure. Despite taking all reasonable steps to safeguard the security of personal information, we cannot guarantee that your personal information cannot be accessed by an unauthorised person (e.g. a hacker) or that unauthorised disclosures will not occur.

  7. We may use, disclose and otherwise process your personal information for any of these purposes, where the information is in a form in which the individual concerned is not identified, or for any other purpose authorised by you or by the Privacy Act and any other applicable privacy laws.

6.  Cross Border Data Transfers

  1. We are a New Zealand-based company and many of our external third party service providers are based outside the UK and the European Union (EU). Accordingly, to the extent you are based within the UK or the EU, the processing of your personal information may involve a transfer of information outside of these jurisdictions. Where  your information is transferred to any country outside the UK or EEA, we ensure that this is done using specific legally-approved safeguards.

  2. In the case of data transfers to the United States such safeguards are provided by either the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (see here [insert link]) as the case may be, standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or a supervisory authority, or the UK’s international data transfer agreement (IDTA) and the international data transfer addendum to the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses for international data transfers (Addendum), Binding Corporate Rules or approved certifications or codes of conduct to protect the data so transferred. 

  3. You can request further details and a copy of these safeguards by contacting us using the contact details set out at the end of this Policy.

7. Data Retention and Security

  1. We will retain personal information about you for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was obtained, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, to manage backups of your personal information in accordance with our security practices, and to address any claim that might be made during or after your membership with us (or your employment with us (if you are an employee)).

  2. In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal information so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case we may use such information without further notice to you.

  3. When any personal information is uploaded to our Website or platform, it sends it over the internet using the https protocol. We also encrypt your personal information to help prevent others from reading it while it is in transit from your device to our Website.

  4. We treat data as an asset that must be protected against loss and unauthorised access. To safeguard the confidentiality and security of your personal information, we use industry standard practices and technologies including but not limited to "firewalls", encrypted transmission via SSL (Secure Socket Layer) and strong data encryption when it is stored to disk. However, because the Internet is an open network, we cannot warrant or guarantee that your personal information is 100% safe from unauthorised access or use. Your personal information may be kept on computer systems operated by third parties. We will take reasonable precautions against unauthorised access and disclosure by those third parties.

  5. While we use reasonable and appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information, we are also reliant upon you to do the same.

  4. The relevant third-party (where applicable) will collect information about your interaction with the communication. The information collected includes whether you opened the email, the links you clicked on, the webpages viewed and the dates and times of such access and activity.  Information about the device used to access the marketing communication may also be collected.  The third-party provides or makes available this information to us for the various purposes outlined in this Policy. They may also hold this information on our behalf.

  5. While these third parties are primarily collecting this information on our behalf, some of these third parties also use the information that we provide them and which is collected from your interaction with our marketing communications for their legitimate business interests, such as to provide, support and improve the services they provide and to undertake data analytics projects.  However, we do not permit them to use your personal information to market their or any other person’s services to you.

  6. We may use a third party service like Klaviyo for the purpose of sending our marketing communications. Klaviyo is located in the United States, which does not have an adequacy decision by the EC.  If we use Klaviyo, we will ensure that our agreement with Klaviyo contains safeguards in respect of your personal information, such as standard data protection clauses.
