PRIVACY POLICY

Your details.
Kept on a short lead.

Shopping online involves sharing a few personal details. This page explains what Furry Peeps collects, why we need it, who may receive it and what you can do if you want to access, correct or ask questions about your information.

We don’t sell your personal information.

We use customer information to run the store, make and deliver orders, provide support, keep the website working and send marketing where you have chosen to receive it.

🐾 Your pet’s shopping habits remain between us.
We do not sell your data Order details stay useful Payment providers process payments Carriers need delivery details Cookies keep carts alive You can ask about your information Pet photos deserve privacy too
THE HUMAN VERSION

We need some information to make the shop work.

We collect only the information reasonably needed to operate Furry Peeps, personalise and deliver orders, provide customer service, maintain accounts, prevent fraud and improve the website. We try to explain that here without requiring a privacy-law decoder ring.

WHAT WE COLLECT

Mostly the things needed to make and deliver your order.

The exact information collected depends on what you do on the website and which services you use.

👤

Contact + account details

This may include your name, email address, phone number, billing address, delivery address, account username and information you provide when contacting us.

📦

Order + personalisation details

We collect information about what you ordered, selected product options, pet names, phone numbers, wording, photographs, uploaded files and other details required to make your product.

Website + technical information

This may include IP address, browser and device information, pages or products viewed, cart activity, cookies and information used for analytics, security, fraud prevention and spam detection.

Your dog’s name probably isn’t sensitive information.

But an uploaded photograph, delivery address, account details or file metadata may contain information relating to a person. We treat customer uploads and order information responsibly either way.

THINGS WE MAY HANDLE

Orders contain more than a name and a squeaky toy.

Depending on how you use Furry Peeps, information we collect or hold may include:

Name Email Phone number Billing address Delivery address Order history Pet names Personalised wording Uploaded photographs Support messages Reviews IP address Browser information Website activity
WHY WE NEED IT

Personal information has jobs to do.

We do not collect customer information simply to admire spreadsheets full of addresses.

01
Make your order Personalise, print, manufacture and check the products you order.
02
Take payment Process transactions, refunds and payment-security checks.
03
Deliver the parcel Create shipping labels, provide tracking and get the goodies to you.
04
Run the shop Provide support, maintain accounts, improve the site and prevent fraud or abuse.
PHOTOS + UPLOADS

We only need the photo because you asked us to print it.

Some personalised products require you to upload photographs or other files. We use those files to prepare and produce your order and provide related customer support.

Please only upload photographs or artwork you have permission to use.

Uploaded images can sometimes contain embedded metadata, including location information. If you do not want that metadata included in the file, remove it before uploading.

Product photos + social media.

We may photograph finished Furry Peeps products for our website or social media.

We do not intentionally publish private contact details or customer photographs that clearly identify a person without appropriate permission.

If your personalised order needs to remain private, contact us before production.

Cookies are the digital kind.

Tragically, the website cannot provide an actual biscuit. These cookies help remember carts, logins, preferences and other useful bits of website behaviour.

Cookies help keep the website functioning.

Furry Peeps and service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to remember cart contents, maintain logged-in sessions, save preferences, improve website performance, measure website use, detect spam and support checkout and security functions.

Your browser allows you to restrict or delete cookies. Disabling some cookies may prevent parts of the website, account area or checkout from working correctly.

WHO GETS WHAT?

We share what is needed to provide the service.

We do not sell customer lists or hand your details around for entertainment.

💳

Payment providers

Payment information and transaction details needed to authorise or support a payment may be provided to the payment gateway or payment service you choose at checkout. Their own privacy policies also apply.

📦

Postage + couriers

Carriers receive the information reasonably required to deliver your parcel, such as your name, delivery address, phone number, email address and delivery instructions where applicable.

Website service providers

We may use hosting, email, analytics, fraud prevention, spam detection, accounting, marketing and technical providers that process information as part of providing those services.

No newsletter hostage situations.

If you no longer want marketing emails, use the unsubscribe option in the message or contact us.

MARKETING

We send marketing where you’ve agreed to receive it.

If you subscribe to Furry Peeps marketing, we may use your supplied contact details to send news, new-product information, offers and other Furry Peeps updates.

You can unsubscribe using the link included in marketing emails. Transactional messages about an order, payment, delivery or customer-service issue are different from marketing messages and may still need to be sent.

KEEPING IT SAFE

We take reasonable steps to protect your information.

No online system can promise perfect security, but that is not an excuse to leave the digital gate swinging open.

🔒

Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards appropriate to our website and business operations.

Our website uses SSL encryption to help protect information transmitted between your browser and the site.

Access to customer information is limited to people and providers who reasonably need it to perform their work.

How long we keep it

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide orders and support, manage accounts, prevent fraud and meet accounting, taxation, legal and administrative obligations.

Information that is no longer required may be deleted, destroyed or de-identified where appropriate and permitted.

YOUR INFORMATION

Want to access or correct your details?

You may contact us to request access to personal information we hold about you or to ask for incorrect information to be corrected, subject to any applicable legal exceptions.

We may need to verify your identity before providing access or making certain changes. This helps prevent somebody else from wandering off with your information.

You may also ask us to delete information where we are not required or permitted to keep it for legal, accounting, security or legitimate administrative purposes.

Start with an email.

Contact:

[email protected]

Tell us what information your request relates to and provide enough detail for us to locate the relevant account or order.

Some technology providers may process information overseas.

Furry Peeps is an Australian business, but some third-party technology, hosting, payment, email, analytics, spam-protection or cloud providers may store or process information outside Australia.

The countries involved can depend on the provider, its infrastructure and its own service providers and may change over time.

Where relevant, third-party providers publish their own privacy information explaining where and how they process data.

We take reasonable steps appropriate to our obligations when selecting and using providers that handle personal information.

Privacy question or complaint?

Start with us. Tell us what happened and give us a reasonable opportunity to investigate and respond.

PRIVACY COMPLAINTS

Tell the humans.

If you believe your personal information has been handled incorrectly, contact us in writing at [email protected].

Please explain your concern and provide enough information for us to investigate it. We will review the complaint and respond within a reasonable period.

Where the Privacy Act applies and you are not satisfied after giving us a reasonable opportunity to address the issue, you may be able to make a complaint to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.

THE SHORT VERSION

We need your details to run the shop. We don’t need to be weird about them.

We use personal information to make orders, take payments, deliver parcels, provide support and operate Furry Peeps. We share information with service providers only where reasonably needed for those jobs and we do not sell your personal information.
