We are committed to ensuring your privacy is protected and to complying with our legal obligations within the jurisdictions we operate in. Our group operates in multiple jurisdictions including New Zealand, Australia, and USA, and is bound by the respective privacy and data protection laws in those jurisdictions.
The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to tell you how we manage your personal information.
To the extent this Privacy Policy is inconsistent with a requirement of any applicable privacy legislation in a particular country, the applicable legislative requirement shall apply. The applicable legislation in New Zealand includes the Privacy Act 2020, and in Australia includes the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) which are referred to throughout this Privacy Policy.
Special provisions for the collection and processing of personal information from individuals located in certain areas in the USA are outlined in Appendix 1.
By providing us with your personal information when using our services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to our use of your personal information in accordance with the terms set out in this policy (as amended from time to time).
The terms “we”, “us” and “our” are a reference to SafeFoodPro Limited. References to “you”, “your” and “client” are a reference to you.
Personal information means any information that directly or indirectly allows for the identification of a natural person. It may include, but is not limited to:
If you can’t be identified (for example, when personal information has been aggregated and anonymised) then this Privacy Policy does not apply.
We collect and use personal information provided by you when you engage us to provide services to you or through your use of the ComplyFood application (“Application”). We use the information you provide to us to provide you with the product or service you request. We will not collect personal information if it is not necessary to provide you with our services or for you to use the Application.
When you use our services or use our website or the Application, we might ask you to provide personal information to us. The failure to provide such personal information may make it impossible for you to use the Application. In cases where the Application specifically states that some personal information is not mandatory, you are free not to communicate this personal information without consequences to the availability or the functioning of the Application. If you are uncertain about what personal information is required for full use of the Application, you are welcome to contact us.
Wherever it is possible and practical to do so, we will collect personal information directly from you. This may be in person, over the telephone, by email, via the Application, over the internet or by completion of a form (such as an application form and including a digital form).
When you visit our website or use the Application, we may record general information about your visit and usage for statistical purposes, such as your IP address and what features you used. Some of this information is collected using cookies. Please refer to our Cookie Policy for more information about our use of cookies. These statistics do not contain any personally identifiable information. Where such statistics do allow us to identify you, they shall be treated as personal information and this Privacy Policy shall apply.
We may collect personal information about you from third party service providers only when you have agreed to the release of such personal information to us. We will not otherwise collect any personal information about you unless we have your permission or you knowingly give us the information.
We may use your personal information in the following ways:
In the course of providing our services, we may need to disclose your personal information to certain third parties, including:
We may not disclose your personal information to overseas third parties without your consent unless the jurisdiction of that third party provides similar safeguards to those in the Privacy Act 2020 or the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) as applicable. We are likely to disclose your personal information to Amazon Web Services (based in the USA) as part of providing our services and you consent to us doing so notwithstanding that it may not have comparable safeguards.
We may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law. We may also disclose information about someone whose activities could cause harm to themselves or others (i.e. fraud). Where possible and appropriate, we will notify you of this type of disclosure.
We understand the importance of protecting the personal information we hold about you. The information you provide us is only made available to our staff on a 'need to know' basis and for the purposes outlined above or to third parties as outlined in this Privacy Policy who have agreed to treat that information confidentially.
