Privacy policy

This Privacy Policy describes how tommyjohnax.shop may collect, use, disclose, store and otherwise handle personal information when individuals visit our website, purchase products, contact us or otherwise interact with our online services.

Where the Privacy Act 1988 and Australian Privacy Principles apply to our operations, personal information will be handled consistently with applicable requirements.

The Australian Privacy Principles are the central privacy principles under the Privacy Act for organisations and agencies to which the regime applies. APP 1 requires covered entities to manage personal information openly and transparently and maintain a clearly expressed, current privacy policy.

Such information may help operate and secure the website, understand general usage and improve functionality.

5. Collection Principles

Where the Australian Privacy Principles apply, covered organisations must comply with requirements concerning the collection of personal information.

For example, APP 3 generally requires an APP entity to collect only personal information reasonably necessary for its functions or activities, subject to the specific rules and exceptions applying under the Privacy Act.

Those providers may process payment or financial information to:

  • Name;
  • Shipping address;

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies supporting functionality such as:

Some technologies may be essential to the operation of the website.

Customers may be able to manage cookies through their browser or any consent interface made available by our store.

Where permitted, we may communicate with customers concerning products, offers or other store information.

Customers may opt out of eligible promotional email communications by using an unsubscribe function provided in those communications or by contacting:

Opting out of marketing does not prevent transactional messages necessary to administer an existing order.

13. Disclosure of Personal Information

Information may be disclosed where reasonably necessary to parties such as Shopify, payment providers, shipping companies, fulfilment providers, technical providers, security providers, analytics services, professional advisers or government authorities where disclosure is legally required.

We do not intend to disclose personal information unnecessarily.

Ecommerce infrastructure and service providers can operate internationally.

As a result, personal information may in some circumstances be processed outside Australia.

Where Australian Privacy Principle 8 applies, covered entities have obligations relating to cross-border disclosure and overseas recipients.

15. Information Security

We take reasonable measures intended to protect personal information against misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

APP 11 requires an APP entity holding personal information to take reasonable protective steps against these risks.

However, no internet transmission or electronic storage method can guarantee complete security.

16. Retention

Personal information may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary for legitimate purposes such as order administration, customer service, returns, refunds, fraud prevention, accounting, legal compliance and dispute resolution.

Different categories of data may require different retention periods.

Information that is no longer required may be deleted or de-identified where appropriate and legally permitted.

17. Access

Where applicable privacy law provides a right of access, an individual may request access to personal information held about them.

Requests may be sent to:

info@tommyjohnax.shop

We may request appropriate identity verification before releasing information.

If you believe personal information we hold about you is incorrect, incomplete or outdated, contact:

info@tommyjohnax.shop

We will consider an appropriate correction in accordance with applicable requirements.

19. Privacy Complaints

Please provide sufficient information for us to understand and investigate the matter.

Where applicable, individuals may also have complaint rights through the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.

20. Children's Information

Our online store is not designed to intentionally collect unnecessary personal information from children.

Where a person does not have legal capacity to make a purchase independently, appropriate involvement of a parent or guardian may be necessary.

Those services may maintain their own privacy practices.

We recommend reviewing the applicable third-party privacy policy before providing information to an external service.
