This may include your name, email address, billing address, shipping address, phone number, products purchased, and payment transaction details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We use this information to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Process payments and fulfil orders.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Deliver physical products and provide digital downloads.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Issue invoices and maintain accounting records.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Send necessary communications about your purchase.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Provide support and handle refunds, complaints, and disputes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prevent fraud and meet applicable legal obligations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our store may use your IP address or supplied location to estimate taxes and shipping. Cookies maintain your shopping cart and customer session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you create an account, our website stores your username, account credentials, contact details, and any profile or address information you provide. Your account may also contain your order history and access to purchased downloads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can update information available through your account settings or contact us for assistance. If you do not provide information needed to complete a purchase, we may be unable to fulfil it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Payments<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We accept payments through PayPal and Stripe. Where WooPayments is offered at checkout, payments are handled through WooPayments, an Automattic service built in partnership with Stripe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The selected payment service receives information needed to process your payment, prevent fraud, and support refunds or disputes. This may include your contact and billing details, purchase amount, currency, and transaction information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our payment integrations send full card numbers and card security codes to the payment provider rather than storing them in our website database. Our store retains transaction records and may retain payment references and limited payment-method details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">See the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/au\/legalhub\/paypal\/privacy-full\">PayPal Privacy Statement<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stripe.com\/privacy\">Stripe Privacy Policy<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/automattic.com\/privacy\/\">Automattic Privacy Policy<\/a> for these providers\u2019 practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Comments and reviews<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you leave a comment or review, we collect the information entered in the form, together with your IP address and browser information to help detect spam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Approved comments and reviews are publicly visible, including your chosen display name and any website link or profile image displayed with them. Please avoid including information you do not want others to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We use Akismet to identify spam. Submitted content and associated information, such as your name, email address, website address, IP address, browser information, and referring page, may be sent to Akismet for checking. See <a href=\"https:\/\/akismet.com\/privacy\/\">Akismet\u2019s privacy information<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Where profile images are provided through Gravatar, a hash derived from your email address may be sent to that service to retrieve your image. The image may appear publicly alongside your approved comment. See <a href=\"https:\/\/automattic.com\/privacy\/\">Automattic\u2019s Privacy Policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact and support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you contact us, we receive the contact details, message, and attachments you provide. We use this information to respond and assist you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our contact email uses Gmail, so correspondence is also processed by Google. See <a href=\"https:\/\/policies.google.com\/privacy\">Google\u2019s Privacy Policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please do not send passwords, full payment card details, or unnecessary sensitive information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hosting, security, and tax calculation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our website is hosted by <strong>SkyRack<\/strong>, which states that its website hosting, databases, and hosting backups are located in Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosting involves storing website information and processing technical records needed to deliver and maintain the service. See <a href=\"https:\/\/skyrack.net.au\/privacy-policy\/\">SkyRack\u2019s Privacy Policy<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/skyrack.net.au\/data-centres\/\">hosting location information<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We use Imunify Security, provided by CloudLinux, to help protect the website. Depending on enabled security features, website traffic and security events may be analysed using information such as IP addresses, requested URLs, browser details, and request information. See <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.cloudlinux.com\/clients-privacy-policy\">CloudLinux\u2019s Clients Privacy Policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We use WooCommerce Tax for automated tax calculations. Its services involve Automattic and TaxJar and may process cart value, shipping value, and destination address.

Its Site Kit module does not add visitor tracking code to our website. Reports use performance testing and, where available, aggregated real-world browser performance data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">See <a href=\"https:\/\/sitekit.withgoogle.com\/documentation\/getting-started\/connect-services\/\">Google\u2019s explanation of these Site Kit services<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Google AdSense<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We plan to display advertisements through Google AdSense. The following applies when AdSense is enabled on our website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Google and participating advertising vendors may use cookies to display advertisements based on your previous visits to this website or other websites.

Their own privacy policies apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you upload publicly accessible images, visitors may be able to download them and extract embedded metadata, including GPS location information.
