Privacy Policy

Corcovado Design recognizes that your privacy is very important to you. We value your privacy and want you to know how we treat the personal information you give to us or we collect from you.

We are committed to protecting and safeguarding your privacy and complying with applicable U.S. and international privacy laws and in particular the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020 (the "Act") and . This Privacy Policy explains how we use and protect your personal information and provide a safe environment for you.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By using our website and disclosing personal information to us you signify your consent to us collecting and using personal information about you in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

The Personal Information We Collect From You

In order to provide you with our products or services, we may ask for personal details such as your name, mailing address, billing address, telephone number and email address, and we will keep a record of this information. We generally only collect personal information when it is provided voluntarily by you. For example, we may collect your personal information when you register with us, subscribe to our newsletter, use our services, order our products, contact us online or by telephone, or send us correspondence.

How We Use Your Personal Information

The personal information that we collect via our website or through correspondence with you will be used and disclosed for the purposes for which you supplied it. For example, the contact details that you provide to us may be used to identify and fulfil any orders you place, ensuring that any products purchased via our website are delivered to your given address.

We use your personal information in a variety of ways including:

  • to help with administration
  • to improve the information, products and services we offer to you
  • for business analysis and research
  • to market products or services that we think may be beneficial to you.

In exceptional situations, we may also use and disclose your personal information for other reasons permitted under the Act including complying with a request from the police or a regulatory or government authority or in the unlikely event that our business assets are ever sold to, or purchased by, another company (as our data records form part of our business).

We may also use and disclose personal information for purposes related or ancillary to the main reasons we collect it, such as invoicing and reminder notices as well as invitations to events. If, at any time, you do not wish to receive these kinds of communications please check the relevant boxes on the forms we use to collect your personal information or contact us and let us know.

We will never sell your personal information to anyone. We may, however, share your personal information with third parties that are carrying out work or performing services, on our behalf, in connection with our products and services (for example, payment processors and relevant freight or courier service companies).

Your personal information will only be held for as long as necessary. The personal information is then destroyed unless we must retain it to satisfy legal, regulatory or accounting requirements or to protect our interests.

How We Protect Your Personal Information 

We work hard to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, loss, disclosure or modification. We store your personal information in different ways, including as hard copy documents and in electronic formats. Access to and use of your personal information is limited to those with a “need to know” in our organization.

We also use technology and other security features and procedures in an effort to prevent unauthorized access and to protect the personal information we hold.

Credit card payments are encrypted and processed using an external credit card payment processor and details are not stored by us.

Please be aware however that no data transmission over the internet can ever be entirely secure and may be prone to error. While we take reasonable technical and organizational precautions to protect your personal information, due to the nature of email and the internet, we cannot guarantee the security, privacy or confidentiality of the personal information that you transmit to us through our website, and therefore any transmission is at your own risk.

As we are a New Zealand based business, the information we collect may be transferred to, or stored at, a destination outside New Zealand. The information we collect may also be processed by authorized persons outside New Zealand, in which event we will take reasonable steps to ensure that your privacy rights are respected.
