Privacy Policy V1.0 – Effective 20 September 2025

Privacy Policy

Kia ora! Here's The Deal...

We value your trust and want you to feel confident shopping with us. We’re committed to protecting your personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 2020 (New Zealand). This policy outlines what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and how we keep it safe.

 

By using our website or services, you agree to the terms outlined in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please refrain from using our services.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with the revised effective date.

What We Collect (and why)

We collect personal information that we need in order to deliver our services to you. When you shop with us, reach out to us, or create an account, we collect:

Contact details

We collect your name, email, phone number, payment confirmation, and shipping and billing addresses to process orders, send order updates, and provide customer support. This includes any information you give us when you reach out to us.

Account details (if you create one)

We collect your username, password, and other information used for account security purposes. If you choose to use the Services and register an account, you are responsible for keeping your account credentials safe.

 

Purchase and transaction details

We collect payment method, transaction amount, and billing address. We do not store your credit or debit card details - payments are processed securely through trusted third-party providers.

 

Engagement and feedback

We collect customer reviews and may gather social media interactions (eg. comments, tags, and messages) to improve our service and customer engagement. Reviews may be displayed publicly on our website and used in marketing materials.

 

Media and marketing

If you opt in, we may use your email to send marketing communications. We may track engagement, such as email opens and/or clicks. Photos and videos shared on social media that tag or mention Gimme Tees may be collected for marketing and promotional purposes.

 

We may also use interest-based advertising, which allows third parties to place cookies, pixels, and trackers on our site to provide you with personalised ads eg. Google (Display Network, DoubleClick) and Meta (Facebook, Instagram). These services may collect data on your browser and browser behaviour, advertisements viewed and interacted with, or IP address and general location to serve personalised ads.

We collect usage data on how you interact with our website using cookies and analytics tools. This may include information about your device, browser, IP address, and other information about your interactions with our site.

 

Third parties

Wherever possible, we collect information directly from you, but we may also receive information from trusted third parties, including web hosting platforms (such as Wix.com, see https://www.wix.com/about/privacy), analytics companies, and social media platforms. Information from these sources may include demographic details, shopping preferences, and interests. Any information we obtain from third parties will be treated in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
