Privacy Policy

New Gum Sarn knows that you care how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This notice outlines our Privacy Policy. By visiting New Gum Sarn, you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Notice.

Personal Information

The information we learn from customers helps us personalise and continually improve your shopping experience and to communicate with our customers about our products, services and promotions. Here are the types of information we gather.

Information You Give Us

We receive and store any information you enter on our web site or give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our features. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, customising future shopping for you, improving our store, and communicating with you.

Automatic Information

We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many web sites, we use "cookies," and we obtain certain types of information when your web browser accesses New Gum Sarn. A number of companies offer utilities designed to help you visit web sites anonymously. Although we will not be able to provide you with a personalised experience at New Gum Sarn if we cannot recognise you, we want you to be aware that these tools exist.

Cookies

Our website uses a technology called cookies. A cookie is a small element of data that our website may send to your computer. Cookies will be stored on your hard drive and allow us to recognise you when you return to our website. We use cookies as a means of researching your usage of the site in order to work on providing you the best customer experience possible. You may configure your browser setting to turn off cookies; however this may affect the levels of functionality you experience on our site.

E-mail Communications:

To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we often receive a confirmation when you open e-mail from New Gum Sarn if your computer supports such capabilities. If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please adjust your account to reflect this by selecting "Unsubscribe" in the Newsletter menu.

Busines Partners

We do not sell, trade or rent your personal information to others. However, we do use other companies and individuals to perform services on our behalf, such as delivering packages, sending mail or emails and processing payments. They will have access to your personal information in order to perform these services, but are not authorised to use your information for any other purpose.

Agents

We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples may include fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analysing data, providing marketing assistance, processing Credit Card payments, and providing customer service. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.

Protection of New Gum Sarn and Others

We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with law; enforce or apply our Conditions of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of New Gum Sarn, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
Other than as set out above, you will receive notice when information about you might go to third parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information.

What Choices Do I Have?

As discussed above, you can choose not to provide information, even though it might be needed to make a purchase or to take advantage of web site features such as automatic Login and permanent Shopping Carts. You can add or update certain information on pages such as those listed in the My Account pages. When you update information, we usually keep a copy of the prior version for our records. If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please adjust your account to reflect this in the Newsletter menu.

Conditions of Use, Notices, and Revisions

If you choose to visit New Gum Sarn, your visit and any dispute over privacy is subject to this Notice and our Conditions of Use, including limitations on damages, arbitration of disputes, and application of the law of New Zealand. If you have any concern about privacy at New Gum Sarn, please send us a thorough description through our contacts page, and we will try to resolve it. Our business changes constantly. This Notice and the Conditions of Use will change also, and use of information that we gather now is subject to the Privacy Notice in effect at the time of use. We may e-mail periodic reminders of our notices and conditions, unless you have instructed us not to, but you should check our web site frequently to see recent changes.

For example, you provide information when you search for a product; place an order; provide information in Your Account (and you might have more than one if you have used more than one e-mail address when shopping with us); communicate with us by phone, e-mail, or otherwise; complete a questionnaire or a contest entry form; by providing employer, school, or other such information; participate in Discussion Boards; or provide and rate Reviews.
