Sharing of your personal information
We may occasionally hire other companies (third parties) to provide services on our behalf, including but not limited to handling customer support enquiries, processing transactions or customer freight shipping. Those companies will be permitted to obtain only the personal information they need to deliver the service.
Some of these third parties to which we disclose personal information may be located overseas, including in the United States. These third parties may not be subject to Australian privacy laws. However, we will take such steps as are reasonable in the circumstances to ensure that those organisations comply with applicable privacy laws.
