Privacy Policieswith expert lawyers

A Privacy Policy is a legal document that usually appears in the footer of a website and is available for anyone who visits the site to view. You may also know it as a privacy notice or privacy statement.

It explains that you will respect people’s privacy, keep their personal information private, and not misuse their contact information. It also helps you stay transparent with your users or customers about how you collect their information, how it is stored, and any third parties it is disclosed to.

Under the Privacy Act, there are certain requirements and wording you must comply with.

All New Zealand websites should ideally have a Privacy Policy. However, it is compulsory to have one if you collect any type of personal information. If you collect information such as an email address, phone number, home or work address, or payment information, you should definitely have a Privacy Policy.

1. What personal information you collect and store.
2. How you use that information, why you collect it, how you store it, and when it may be disclosed.
3. How you collect and securely store personal information.
4. That you will not spam people or sell or rent the information you collect.
5. How someone who has left their details with you can check their information and unsubscribe from your email list.
6. How someone can make a complaint about a breach of any Privacy Principles and how you would deal with that complaint.
7. Whether you disclose personal information to others, including organisations overseas.
8. How customers can contact you.
