Your name, address or personal information will not be sold or passed to any third party without your permission except as may be required by law.

Under the Privacy and Personal Information Protection Act 1998 you have the right to know:

Your Email Address

A valid email address is required to process online orders. Your email will not be be added to a mailing list or disclosed for any other purpose without your written consent.

Submitted Information

The following personal information will only be retained and used for the purpose of fulfilling your order:

Personal and business information;
contact and shipping address details;
credit card and other payment arrangement information;
the nature and items of your order.

Please note your credit card number is not stored in the shop.nsw system. It is passed in encrypted format to the secure online payment gateway. The first six and last three digits of your credit card number are stored in the payment gateway management facility for reference purposes.

Security

When ordering online, your credit card details will be automatically transferred to the 128-bit SSL-secured web site to continue your transaction.

Without 128-bit SSL, the Internet is an insecure medium and site visitors should be aware that there are inherent risks transmitting information across the Internet.

Please do not provide credit card information or other sensitive information via email or non-SSL web forms as these may be at risk of being intercepted, read or modified.

In the event of unauthorised use of your credit card, most banks and card issuers either cover all the charges that result from unauthorised use of your credit card or may limit your liability. Please ask your bank to explain their credit card use policy as it applies to online transactions and their Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Dispute Process.
