The Australian Privacy Principles

We will treat all Personal Information in accordance with any and all obligations that are binding upon us under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (“Privacy Act”). The Privacy Act lays down 13 key principles in relation to the collection and treatment of Personal Information, which are called the “Australian Privacy Principles”.

What is “Personal Information”?

Information provided to payment gateway providers

All purchases that are made through this Site are processed securely and externally by one or more third-party payment gateway providers (i.e. Stripe, Zip Money, etc). Unless you expressly consent otherwise, we do not see or have access to any Personal Information that you may provide to such third-party payment gateway providers, other than information that is required in order to process your order and deliver your purchased items to you (e.g., your name, phone number, email address and billing/delivery address).

How we may collect your Personal Information

At this Site, we only collect Personal Information that is necessary for us to conduct our business.

  • purchase any products and/or services through this Site;

  • complete an online contact form to contact us;

Do we use your Personal Information for direct marketing?

We and/or our carefully selected business partners may, from time to time, send you direct marketing communications and information about the products offered on our Site. This may take the form of emails, SMS, mail, or other forms of communication, in accordance with the Spam Act 2003 (Cth) and the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). You may opt-out of receiving marketing materials from us by contacting us through the contact us feature below, or by using the opt-out facilities provided (e.g. an unsubscribe link).

IP addresses

This Site may also collect Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. IP addresses are assigned to computers on the internet to uniquely identify them within the global network. Found—Space collects and manages IP addresses as part of the service of providing internet session management and for security purposes. Found—Space may also collect and use web log, computer and connection information for security purposes and to help prevent and detect any misuse of, or fraudulent activities involving, this Site.

Cookies

This Site uses “cookies” to help personalise your online experience. A cookie is a text file or a packet of information that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server to identify and interact more effectively with your computer. There are two types of cookies that may be used at this Site: a persistent cookie and a session cookie. A persistent cookie is entered by your web browser into the “Cookies” folder on your computer and remains in that folder after you close your browser, and may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to this Site. A session cookie is held temporarily in your computer’s memory and disappears after you close your browser or shut down your computer. Cookies cannot be used to run programs. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. In some cases, cookies may collect and store Personal Information about you. Found—Space extends the same privacy protection to your Personal Information, whether gathered via cookies or from other sources.

You can configure your internet browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies or notify you when a cookie is sent. Please refer to your internet browser’s instructions to learn more about these functions. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of this Site.

Why we use cookies

This Site uses cookies in order to:

• remember your preferences for using this Site;

• manage the signup process when you create an account with us;

• recognise you as logged in while you remain so. This avoids your having to log in again every time you visit a new page;

• facilitate e-commerce transactions, to ensure that your order is remembered between pages during the checkout process;

• show relevant notifications to you (e.g., notifications that are relevant only to users who have, or have not, created an account or subscribed to newsletters or email or other subscription services); and

• remember details of data that you choose to submit to us (e.g., through online contact forms or by way of comments, forum posts, reviews, ratings, etc).

Many of these cookies are removed or cleared when you log out, but some may remain so that your preferences are remembered for future sessions.

• Google Analytics, one of the most widespread and trusted website analytics solutions, may use cookies de-identified data about how long users spend on this Site and the pages that they visit;

• Google AdSense, one of the most widespread and trusted website advertising solutions, may use cookies to serve more relevant advertisements across the web and limit the number of times that a particular advertisement is shown to you; and

Access to your Personal Information

In most cases, you may have access to Personal Information that we hold about you. We will handle requests for access to your Personal Information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles. All requests for access to your Personal Information must be directed to the Privacy Officer by email or by writing to us at our postal address. We will deal with all requests for access to Personal Information as quickly as possible. Requests for a large amount of information, or information that is not currently in use, may require further time before a response can be given. We may charge you a fee for access if a cost is incurred by us in order to retrieve your information, but in no case will we charge you a fee for your application for access.

In some cases, we may refuse to give you access to Personal Information that we hold about you. This may include circumstances where giving you access would:

• be unlawful (e.g., where a record that contains Personal Information about you is subject to a claim for legal professional privilege by one of our contractual counterparties);

• have an unreasonable impact on another person’s privacy; or

• prejudice an investigation of unlawful activity.

We may also refuse access where the Personal Information relates to existing or anticipated legal proceedings, and the information would not be accessible by the process of discovery in those proceedings.

If we refuse to give you access, we will provide you with reasons for our refusal.

Controlling your personal information

At any time when you are required to fill in a form on the Site, you may select the box to indicate that you do not want your Personal Information to be used for direct marketing purposes. If you have previously agreed to us using your Personal Information for direct marketing purposes and change your mind at a later time, you may request to opt out of same by writing to us at hello@f-s.wordifysites.com or hello@foundspace.co.nz.

Correcting your personal information

We will amend any Personal Information about you that is held by us and that is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date if you request us to do so. If we disagree with your view about the accuracy, completeness or currency of a record of your Personal Information that is held by us, and you ask us to associate with that record a statement that you have a contrary view, we will take reasonable steps to do so.

Storage and security of your Personal Information

We are committed to maintaining the confidentiality of the information that you provide us and we will take all reasonable precautions to protect your Personal Information from unauthorised use or alteration. In our business, Personal Information may be stored both electronically (on our computer systems and with our website hosting provider) and in hard-copy form. Firewalls, anti-virus software and email filters, as well as passwords, safeguard and protect all of our electronic information. Likewise, we take all reasonable measures to ensure the security of hard-copy information.

Third party websites

You may click-through to third party websites from this Site, in which case we recommend that you refer to the privacy statement of the websites you visit. This Privacy Policy applies to this Site only and Found—Space assumes no responsibility for the content of any third-party websites.

Re-marketing

We may from time to time use the Google AdWords and/or Facebook re-marketing services to advertise on third party websites to previous visitors to this Site based upon their activity on this Site. This allows us to tailor our marketing to better suit your needs and to only display advertisements that are relevant to you. Such advertising may be displayed on a Google search results page or a website in the Google Display Network or inside Facebook. Google and Facebook may use cookies and/or pixel tags to achieve this. Any data so collected by Google and/or Facebook will be used in accordance with their own respective privacy policies. None of your personal Google and/or Facebook information is reported to us.

You can set preferences for how Google advertises to you using the Google Ads Settings page (https://www.google.com/settings/ads). Facebook has enabled an AdChoices link that enables you to opt out of targeted advertising.

Duration of retention of your data

We will only keep your data for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to satisfying any legal, accounting or reporting requirements.  At the end of any retention period, your data will either be deleted completely or anonymised (for example, by aggregation with other data so that it can be used in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis and business planning).  In some circumstances, you can ask us to delete your data.

Keeping your information up-to-date

To ensure that your personal information is accurate and up to date, please promptly advise us of any changes to your information by contacting our data protection officer by email or by post.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

From time to time, it may be necessary for us to revise this Privacy Policy. Any changes will be in accordance with any applicable requirements under the Privacy Act and the Australian Privacy Principles. We may notify you about changes to this Privacy Policy by posting an updated version on this Site.
