We are committed to handling personal information responsibly and in accordance with applicable privacy laws.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time by publishing an updated version on our website at www.thetailorslounge.com.au.

Our website is operated through Shopify, our booking forms are managed through HubSpot CRM, our online payments may be processed through Stripe, and we may use tracking and advertising tools provided by platforms such as HubSpot, Meta and Google Ads. HubSpot states its data may be hosted in regional data centres including Australia, the United States, Canada and Germany, and Stripe says personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries where it or its service providers operate.

Cookies, analytics and advertising
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to improve website functionality, understand visitor behaviour, measure campaign performance and support advertising activities.
This may include tracking through HubSpot, Meta and Google Ads.
These tools may collect information such as your IP address, browser or device type, pages viewed, time spent on the site, referral source and actions taken on our website.

Disclosure of personal information
We may disclose personal information to third parties who assist us in operating our business, including:
- website and ecommerce providers
- CRM, booking and form management providers
- payment processors
- IT and cloud service providers
- marketing, analytics and advertising providers
- professional advisers such as accountants, insurers and lawyers
- delivery, tailoring, alteration or administrative service providers
- government, regulatory or law enforcement bodies where required or authorised by law.
We do not sell your personal information.
Overseas disclosure
Some of the third-party providers we use may store or process personal information outside Australia.
Because we use platforms such as Shopify, HubSpot, Stripe, Meta and Google, your personal information may be disclosed to or processed in countries outside Australia, including countries where those providers or their infrastructure operate. OAIC guidance says organisations that disclose personal information overseas must take reasonable steps to ensure overseas recipients handle it consistently with the APPs, and may remain accountable for that disclosure in some circumstances.
Where practicable, those countries may include:
- Australia
- United States
- Canada
- Germany and other countries in the European Union
- other countries in which our service providers or their sub-processors operate.
We take reasonable steps to ensure that overseas recipients handle personal information in a manner consistent with applicable privacy requirements.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
These steps may include access controls, password protection, secure platforms, limited staff access and other administrative and technical safeguards.
However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Retention of personal information
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, and to satisfy legal, accounting or reporting requirements.
When personal information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to destroy it or de-identify it.
Access to and correction of personal information
You may request access to the personal information we hold about you and request that we correct any information that is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date.
If you would like to make such a request, please contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
Complaints
If you have a complaint about how we handle your personal information, please contact us first using the details below.
Please provide enough detail for us to investigate the issue. We will consider your complaint and respond within a reasonable timeframe.
If you are not satisfied with our response, you may be able to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).
Third-party links
Our website may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies separately.
