We care about your privacy and your trust is important to us.

Because You Matter Pty Ltd (we or us) recognises that your privacy is very important to you and we are committed to protecting your personal information. This policy applies to personal information we manage about our customers, visitors to our website www.becauseyoumatter.gifts and members of the public. It provides information about the personal information we collect and the ways in which we use that personal information.

The kinds of information we collect and how we collect it

The kinds of personal information we collect may include your name, date of birth, address, telephone number, e-mail address, occupation or job title, bank details and credit card details.

We collect personal information when you voluntarily provide it to us, for example, through submitting an online form. There are also circumstances in which we may collect your personal information indirectly. For example, we may occasionally collect personal information from third party companies and partners with whom we have a relationship. In such circumstances, we take reasonable steps to ensure that the third party has obtained your consent to disclose your personal information to us. If you operate an online media account, we may collect information or content you have made public in connection with that online media service or otherwise permit the online media service to share with us. Such information or content may include personal information. We may also collect personal information that is made publicly available by being published on any website.

We may collect information about your web behaviour such as your IP address, browser type, URLs of the websites you access from our website and details of the webpages you visit, as well as other software and hardware information that may be available. This information is automatically provided to us by your web browser. Generally this information is anonymous and cannot be used to identify you, however, if you submit an online form this information may be appended to any personal information you submit to us.

If you provide personal information to us about someone else, such as an employee, you must ensure that you have their consent to disclose their information to us. You should also ensure that you take reasonable steps such that the individual concerned is aware of the various matters dealt with in this policy. You consent to work-related personal information of your employees being used and disclosed as set out in this policy.

If you do not provide us with the personal information we request we may not be able to provide you the level of service we otherwise could.

Disclosure of information

So that we may use your information for the purposes identified above, we may disclose personal information to external providers of services, for example, IT and marketing service providers.

Occasionally we might disclose personal information to third party software companies and partners with whom we have a relationship, however, we will only do so with your express consent.

We may disclose your personal information to the extent that we are required to do so by law, including in connection with any legal proceedings or anticipated legal proceedings, or in order to comply with any legal obligation, or to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights.

We may also sell, transfer, or otherwise disclose our database of personal information to an actual or potential successor entity, purchaser, or investor in connection with a corporate merger, consolidation, sale of our assets or substantially all our assets, share sale, investment transaction or other corporate rearrangement.

The Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Act) and corresponding Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) require relevant Australian entities to ensure that, before disclosing personal information overseas, reasonable steps are taken to ensure that overseas recipients do not breach the Act or the APPs (APP 8.1). It is not always possible to ensure that overseas recipients will comply. We do not take any responsibility for the actions of overseas third party recipients of personal information.
