Personal information may be held electronically or, where necessary, in physical records.

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification and disclosure. These steps may include:

  • access controls
  • secure document-transfer methods
  • reputable software and cloud-storage providers
  • staff and contractor confidentiality obligations
  • device and network security
  • secure disposal or de-identification of information when it is no longer required.

No method of electronic storage or communication is completely secure. While we take reasonable precautions, we cannot guarantee the security of information transmitted over the internet.

Please avoid sending highly sensitive identification or financial documents through unsecured communication channels unless we have asked you to do so.

10. How long we keep information

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to:

  • provide our services
  • manage ongoing client relationships
  • meet record-keeping, credit, taxation, legal, licence and compliance requirements
  • respond to disputes or complaints.

When information is no longer required and we are not legally required to retain it, we will take reasonable steps to securely destroy it or permanently de-identify it.

11. Website forms, cookies and analytics

When you visit our website, certain technical information may be collected automatically.

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • allow the website to function correctly

Cookies are small files stored on your device. You can usually adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies, although doing so may affect how parts of the website operate.

We may use third-party services such as [Google Analytics, Meta Pixel or other tools, if applicable]. These providers may collect technical and usage information in accordance with their own privacy policies.

The final policy should only name analytics and advertising tools that are actually installed on the Luxe website.

12. Direct marketing

With your consent, or where otherwise permitted by law, we may use your contact details to provide information about:

13. Accessing your personal information

You may request access to the personal information we hold about you.

To make a request, contact us using the details at the end of this policy. We may need to verify your identity before releasing information.

We will respond within a reasonable period. In some circumstances, Australian law may allow or require us to refuse access. If that occurs, we will generally explain the reason unless we are legally prevented from doing so.

We may charge a reasonable fee for the administrative cost of providing access, but we will not charge you merely for making a request.

14. Correcting your personal information

We take reasonable steps to ensure the information we hold is accurate, complete and current.

Please contact us if you believe information we hold about you is incorrect, incomplete or out of date.

We will take reasonable steps to correct the information where appropriate. If we do not make the requested correction, you may ask us to associate a statement with the information noting that you believe it is inaccurate.

15. Data breaches

We have procedures for responding to suspected loss, misuse, unauthorised access or disclosure of personal information.

Where a breach is likely to result in serious harm and notification is required under the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme, we will notify affected individuals and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner as required by law.

16. Privacy complaints

If you believe we have mishandled your personal information or breached your privacy rights, please contact us first so we can investigate the matter.

Please provide:

  • your name and contact details
  • details of your concern
  • relevant dates, communications or documents
  • the outcome you are seeking.

We will acknowledge your complaint and aim to respond within a reasonable period.
