1. Introduction
Eating History Pty Ltd (“Eating History”, “we”, “us”, “our”) recognises the importance of protecting personal information and is committed to handling it responsibly and lawfully.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store and disclose personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).
Where individuals located outside Australia access our website or services, including from the United Kingdom, this policy describes our general approach to personal information handling. We do not represent that our practices comply with all foreign data protection regimes unless expressly stated.
2. What Is Personal Information
“Personal information” means information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable, whether the information is true or not and whether recorded in a material form or not.
3. Collection of Personal Information
We collect personal information only where reasonably necessary for our activities.
We may collect personal information:
- when you make an enquiry or communicate with us;
- when you purchase, book or participate in our services or products;
- when you subscribe to updates or communications;
- when you interact with our website;
- from service providers, contractors or professional advisers we engage.
The types of personal information we may collect include your name, contact details, billing information, and any information you voluntarily provide in the course of engaging with us.
If you do not provide certain information, we may not be able to respond to your enquiry or provide requested services.
4. How We Use Personal Information
We use personal information for purposes including:
- providing and administering our services;
- communicating with you;
- responding to enquiries, feedback or complaints;
- managing payments and accounts;
- operating and improving our website and services;
- complying with legal and regulatory obligations.
We do not use personal information for purposes unrelated to these activities without consent or unless permitted or required by law.
5. Marketing Communications
We may send information about our services where permitted by law.
You may opt out of receiving marketing communications at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions in the communication or by contacting us directly.
We do not sell personal information to third parties.
6. Disclosure of Personal Information
We may disclose personal information to:
- service providers who assist us to operate our business (for example, IT, hosting, payment processing, professional advisers);
- authorities or regulators where required or authorised by law.
We take reasonable steps to ensure that third parties handle personal information appropriately, but we do not control how independent third parties manage their own systems.
We do not disclose personal information for unrelated third-party marketing purposes.
7. Overseas Disclosure
Some service providers we use may store or process information outside Australia.
Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps to ensure that overseas recipients handle personal information in a manner consistent with Australian privacy requirements, where practicable.
Accessing our website from outside Australia does not mean that we intentionally target or offer services in other jurisdictions.
8. Data Security and Retention
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law, after which it may be securely destroyed or de-identified.
9. Access and Correction
You may request access to personal information we hold about you and request correction if you believe it is inaccurate, out of date or incomplete.
Requests should be made in writing using the contact details below. We may refuse access where permitted by law.
10. Cookies and Website Analytics
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to support basic functionality and understand how the site is used.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect how the website functions.
Third-party services used on our website may set their own cookies, which are governed by their respective privacy policies.
