Effective date: 1 August 2025 Applies to: kitchencatchhardware.com.au

Kitchen Catch Hardware ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and how you can access or correct it.

By using our website or submitting an enquiry, you consent to the collection and use of your information as described in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We collect personal information only when you provide it to us voluntarily. This includes:

  • Contact details — your name, phone number, email address and suburb, submitted via our enquiry forms or when you contact us directly.
  • Enquiry details — the product you are interested in, quantities, sizes and any project information you include in your message.
  • Usage data — information about how you use our website, collected automatically via cookies and analytics tools (see Section 4).
  • Attribution data — how you arrived at our website, including UTM parameters, Google Click IDs (GCLID) and Facebook Click IDs (FBCLID), to measure the effectiveness of our advertising.

We do not collect sensitive information (such as health, financial or government identifier information) and we do not knowingly collect information from individuals under the age of 18.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the personal information you provide to:

  • Respond to your product enquiries and provide pricing information.
  • Process and fulfil orders or supply arrangements.
  • Contact you regarding your enquiry by phone or email.
  • Measure and improve the performance of our website and advertising campaigns.
  • Comply with our legal obligations.

We will not use your personal information for any purpose that is unrelated to why you provided it, unless we obtain your consent or are required by law to do so.

3. Disclosure of Your Information

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information. We may share it with:

  • Email service providers — to deliver enquiry notifications to our team (e.g. Gmail / Google Workspace).
  • Analytics and advertising platforms — Google Analytics, Google Ads and Meta (Facebook) may receive anonymised or hashed data for reporting and ad measurement purposes (see Section 4).
  • Legal and regulatory bodies — where we are required to disclose information by law, court order or government authority.

Where we disclose your information to third parties, we take reasonable steps to ensure those parties handle it in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles.

  • Regular software updates and security monitoring.

No method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We retain your enquiry information for as long as is reasonably necessary to respond to your enquiry and to fulfil any resulting supply relationship, or as required by law.

6. Overseas Disclosure

Some third-party services we use (including Google and Meta) store and process data on servers located outside Australia, including in the United States. These companies are signatories to frameworks that impose data protection standards comparable to Australian law. By using our website, you consent to your information being processed in these countries.

7. Accessing and Correcting Your Information

You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you and to request corrections if it is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date. To make a request, please contact us using the details in Section 9. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles.

There is no charge for making an access request. In some circumstances we may decline to provide access, for example where doing so would unreasonably impact another person's privacy. If we decline, we will tell you why.

8. Complaints
