At Beauty Bargains, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring your personal information is handled in accordance with the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020. This policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your data when you shop with us.

We collect personal information that is necessary to provide you with our services, including:

• Transaction Data: Details about payments to and from you and other details of products you have purchased.
• Technical Data: Your IP address, browser type, and how you interact with our website (via cookies).

We use your information to:

• Communicate with you regarding your purchase or customer service inquiries.
• Manage our “offshore island” manual orders and shipping quotes.
• Comply with NZ legal and tax obligations (e.g., GST reporting).

To run our store efficiently, we share limited information with trusted partners:

• Payment Processing: We use Stripe and Afterpay. We do not store your credit card details on our servers; these are handled securely by Stripe.

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. This includes using SSL encryption on our website and secure payment gateways. In the unlikely event of a serious privacy breach, we will notify you and the NZ Privacy Commissioner as required by law.
