Consent and tracking tool The app we use to manage compliance with privacy laws collects your IP address and, where applicable, your email to manage your consents, keep a record of your choices and track your requests.
What information we collect and why We collect and use personal information for the following purposes: order and delivery (to fulfil your contract); payment processing and fraud prevention (to fulfil your contract, our legitimate business interests or legal obligations); accounting and tax records (legal obligation, including GST where it applies); newsletter and marketing communications (your consent, in line with the Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act 2007); analytics and advertising, including tools such as Meta Pixel and Google Analytics where used (your consent, where required); customer service (to fulfil your contract or our legitimate business interests).
We keep information only as long as needed for these purposes and in line with applicable record-keeping requirements.
Who we share your information with To run the shop, we work with service providers who may handle information on our behalf, including our e-commerce platform (Shopify), payment providers, advertising platforms (Meta) and analytics tools (for example Google Analytics, if installed). Some of these providers are located outside New Zealand, including in the United States, Canada and France. Where we disclose personal information overseas, we take reasonable steps to make sure the recipient protects it in a way that is comparable to the Privacy Act 2020 (IPP 12).
Identity verification For your security, we may ask you to confirm your identity before acting on a request (by confirmation email or information matching your account).

Correction — ask us to correct information that is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete or misleading (IPP 7).
Withdrawing consent and opting out of marketing — withdraw your consent at any time, and unsubscribe from marketing messages using the link in every message.

Some information must be kept where the law requires it (for example accounting and tax records or fraud prevention), even if you close your account.

Response time and conditions We respond to requests free of charge and as soon as reasonably practicable, and within 20 working days. We may refuse a request in the limited circumstances the Privacy Act allows, and will explain why if we do.
Cookie management Non-essential cookies, including analytics and advertising trackers such as Meta Pixel and Google Analytics, are turned off by default until you consent. You can accept all, decline the non-essential ones or choose by category through the "Cookies" link in the footer, and you can withdraw your consent at any time.
Privacy breaches If a privacy breach is likely to cause you serious harm, we will notify you and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner as the law requires.
Complaints If you think we have not handled your personal information properly, please contact us first so we can try to fix it. If you are not satisfied with our response, you can complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner: https://www.privacy.org.nz.
