This information is taken at the time of placing your order for the purchase of a Product from us. This personal information includes your name, postal and email addresses, phone numbers and other billing information.

To serve you better, we may also collect personal information about individuals who are not the customers of our business, but whose personal information is given to us upon referral basis or otherwise.

Please be advised that your use of the information and services available through our website will determine the type of information that we collect about you.

Please also be aware that we will record your email address if you contact us or send us an email.

All the personal information so collected by FactoryFast.co.nz will be used and disclosed so that we may provide you with the services that you have requested, or to enable us to carry out our business as suppliers of goods that have been purchased.

Your personal information will only be used to process your order and to communicate with you. As per our Terms and Conditions of sale, we reserve the right to email our special offers, promotions etc. that we believe will be of interest to you. Once you have placed your order, you may opt not to receive any information about such offers and we will simply stop sending any promotional emails.

FactoryFast.co.nz is bound to keep your information private. We will not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

We will not disclose any personal information unless the disclosure is required or authorised by law, or you have consented to our disclosing your personal information, or for other purposes (related to the primary purpose of collecting that information) that is reasonably expected.

However, we may reveal general statistical information about our Web site and visitors, such as number of visitors, number and type of goods and services purchased, etc.

Access To Personal Information

You are free to access your personal information that we hold. All such requests will be processed according to the provisions and guidelines as incorporated under the Australian Privacy Principles.

All such requests for access can be addressed to the Privacy Officer through Contact Us.

The time taken for processing of all such requests depends on the volume of information requested, and the date-wise disposal of the requests. In rare cases, the processing may incur an accessing fee if FactoryFast.co.nz incurs some expenditure in order to make the requested information available.

FactoryFast.co.nz reserves the right to refuse access to this personal information under rare situations where we feel it be justified and reasonable. For instance, if it is unlawful, or would prejudice an investigation, or would contribute to an unlawful activity, etc.

We will take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify unsolicited personal information we hold if we no longer need that information for any purpose for which it may be used or disclosed under the Privacy Act.
