5. Online Store and Payment Providers

Our website and online store may rely on third-party platforms and service providers to provide functions such as website hosting, e-commerce, payment processing and order fulfilment.

Information provided when making a purchase may therefore be processed by those service providers as necessary to complete your transaction and provide their services.

Those providers may also have their own privacy policies governing their handling of personal information.

6. Cookies and Website Analytics

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • operate the website and online store;

  • remember user preferences;

  • understand how visitors use the website;

  • improve website performance;

  • help protect against fraudulent or malicious activity.

You may be able to restrict or disable cookies through your browser settings. Some website functions may not operate correctly if cookies are disabled.

7. Marketing Communications

Where permitted by law, we may use your contact details to send you information about products, services, promotions or other information that may be relevant to you.

You may unsubscribe from electronic marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe facility provided in the communication or by contacting us.

We will not require you to continue receiving marketing communications as a condition of purchasing from us where this is not otherwise permitted by law.

8. Storage and Security

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

Information may be stored electronically or in physical records and may be held using third-party technology or data storage providers.

No method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

9. Overseas Disclosure

Some of the service providers used to operate our website, online store, payment systems, communications or data storage may store or process information outside Australia.

Where applicable, the countries in which personal information is likely to be disclosed or stored will depend on the service providers used by Col Voss Automatic Transmissions from time to time.

Where the Australian Privacy Principles apply to us, we will handle overseas disclosures in accordance with our obligations under applicable privacy law.

10. Access and Correction

You may contact us to request access to personal information we hold about you or to request correction of information that is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading.

We may need to verify your identity before providing access or making a correction.

In some circumstances, applicable law may permit or require us to refuse access. If this occurs, we will provide an explanation where required by law.

11. Retention of Information

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and to comply with applicable legal, taxation, accounting, warranty and business record-keeping requirements.

When personal information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it where required by law.
