  • The personal information you provide us when you voluntarily use our Website and complete the purchase process (such as your name, address and and email address);
  • The personal information, you provide us through any other method (including without limitation correspondence and discussions);

Email marketing (if applicable): With your permission, we may send you emails about our store, new products and other updates. In addition, as part of the purchase process, we send you emails to update you about your purchase. If you request us to do so, we will immediately remove you from any mailing lists you may be party to. Simply email us at hello@arnikawa.co.nz

CONSENT: HOW DO GET MY CONSENT?

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for a delivery or return a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting your personal information and using it for that specific reason only.

If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your express consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say no or opt out.

HOW DO I WITHDRAW MY CONSENT

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 at hello@arnikawa.co.nz.

SECURITY IS IMPORTANT TO US

We are committed to ensuring that your personal information is secure. 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.

LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITE – WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU CLICK ON A LINK THAT DIRECTS YOU AWAY FROM OUR SITE

When you click on links on our store, they may direct you away from our site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites and encourage you to read their privacy statements.

PAYMENT AND THIRD PARTY SERVICES

Payment for any products you purchase via our website is completed by a third-party payment gateway. The relevant payment gateway may ask you to provide further information (including your credit or debit card details). This information will be retained by that payment gateway and will not be passed on to us.

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.

The payment gateways have their own privacy policies in respect of 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 in 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 New Zealand, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under New Zealand Law.

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.

DISCLOSURE

We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our Terms and Conditions.

WHAT ARE THEY AND WHAT DO WE USE THEM FOR?

Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored in a browser-related file on your computer’s hard drive when you use our Web site. Cookies are widely used on most major Web sites. Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website, by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. This helps us analyse data about web page traffic and improve our website in order to tailor it to customer needs. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you other than the data you choose to share with us.

We may use information contained in cookies to make assumptions about the user of the computer and to provide users of that computer with focused advertising that we believe may be of interest, based on that information.

You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of our website.

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We reserve the right to modify this privacy policy at any time, so please review it frequently. Changes and clarifications will take effect immediately upon their posting on the website. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here that it has been updated, so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we use and/or disclose it.

If our store is acquired or merged with another company, your information may be transferred to the new owners so that we may continue to sell products to you.
