| Organic
Babe recognises that your privacy is very
important to you and that you have a right
to control your personal information. We know
that providing personal information is an
act of trust and we take that seriously. Unless
you give us explicit consent to act otherwise,
the following policies will govern how Organic
Babe handles your personal information and
safeguards your privacy.
|
| Organic
Babe is committed to protecting your personal
information and giving you choice in who can
use your personal information and how it can
be used. We believe that our privacy policy
represents industry best practice.
Organic
Babe is committed to complying with the voluntary
National Principles for the Fair Handling
of Personal Information developed by the Australian
Federal Privacy Commissioner in 1998 [see
the Australian Privacy
Commissioner's website]. Organic Babe
will comply with any laws introduced to strengthen
protections for consumers' privacy.
|
Organic
Babe will not collect or monitor any personal
information about you without your consent unless
we believe it is necessary:
- Because
it is required by law.
- To
provide you with a service which you have
requested.
- To
implement our terms of service.
- To
protect the rights or property of Organic
Babe, any Organic Babe user, or any member
of the public.
You
may provide Organic Babe with information
directly, such as through subscribing to email
lists or identifying yourself when using particular
services. The amount of information we collect
about you depends on how you use the website.
The only personal information we collect is
what you tell us about yourself, for example
by subscribing to mailing lists, and entering
competitions.
Organic
Babe uses cookies to help maximise your enjoyment and ease of shopping. Cookies in and of themselves
do not personally identify users, although
they do identify a user's browser. Please
see further information on how we use cookies
below.
Organic
Babe intends to introduce a membership system
that will give you the option of enjoying
enhanced services on our website. Again, any
changes in how we use your personal information
will only occur with your consent. Any
further collection of your personal information
than that explained above will only occur
with consent from you. Organic Babe only collects
information from your use of our website and
not from other organisations.

| Cookies
are pieces of information that a website transfers
to your computer's hard disk for record-keeping
purposes. Most Web browsers are set to accept
cookies. However, if you do not wish to receive
any cookies you may set your browser to refuse
cookies. In some instances this may mean you
will not be able to take full advantage of parts
of Organic Babe.
The
use of cookies can enhance your enjoyment
of what is offered by Organic Babe, because
they can help personalise your experience
of our website. They can make it easier for
you to shop online and can ensure that information
provided to you is most relevant to your interests.
Cookies can also provide us with aggregate
information on how people use our websites,
and which advertisements are effective, which
helps us to keep improving Organic Babe. Cookies
in and of themselves do not personally identify
users, although they do identify a user's
browser. The cookies simply operate as a unique
identifier which help us to know what our
customers find interesting and useful on our
website, almost like a continuing questionnaire.
We do not link this information back to other
information that you have provided to us.
Organic Babe does not store any information
inside cookies.
|
Organic
Babe will not use or disclose any information
about you without your consent, or access your
communications on our websites, unless:
- Required
by law.
- We
believe it necessary to provide you with
a service which you have requested.
- To
implement our terms of service.
- To
protect the rights or property of Organic
Babe, any Organic Babe user, or any member
of the public.
Organic
Babe and its affiliates recognise the trust
you place in us when you give us personal
information. In order to operate the website
or deliver a service we may sometimes share
your personal information with an affiliate.
We will not otherwise disclose your personal
information to other companies without your
explicit consent.
|
| We
will not send you "spam" (advertising information)
without first asking you whether you wish
to have promotional information sent to you.
If you are receiving promotional information
about Organic Babe or its affiliates and do
not wish to receive this information any longer,
you may remove your name from a list by visiting
the website from which the communication was
sent and following the instructions on how
to withdraw your information from that site.
To
be removed from Organic Babe's mailing list,
under the mailing list section of the website,
simply enter your email address, select "Unsubscribe"
and click "Go" to be removed from
our mailing list. Please allow seven days
for this request to be processed.
|
| Organic
Babe will endeavour to take all reasonable
steps to keep secure any information which
we hold about you, and to keep this information
accurate and up to date. Your information
is stored on secure servers.
In
addition, our employees and data processors
are obliged to respect the confidentiality
of any personal information held by Organic
Babe. However, Organic Babe will not be held
responsible for events arising from unauthorised
access to your personal information.
You
can also play an important role in keeping
your personal information secure, by maintaining
the confidentiality of any password and accounts
used on the Organic Babe website. Please notify
us immediately if there is any unauthorised
use of your account by any other Internet
user or any other breach of security.

| Organic
Babe provides links to websites outside of
the Organic Babe website. These linked sites
are not under the control of Organic Babe,
and we are not responsible for the conduct
of companies linked to our website. Before
disclosing your personal information on any
other website, we advise you to examine the
terms and conditions of using their websites.
|
| If
Organic Babe becomes aware of any ongoing
concerns or problems with sites associated
with Organic Babe, we will take these issues
seriously and work to address these concerns.

our privacy policy, or you have a problem
or complaint, please contact us on 1300 729

| Our
commitment to make and maintain Organic Babe
as "The best baby wear site"
means that we are constantly adding new products
and features to Organic Babe. Because of this,
from time to time, our policies will be reviewed
and may be revised. Organic Babe reserves
the right to change its privacy policy at
any time and notify you by posting an updated
version of the policy on its website.
