Privacy policy

This is the Privacy Policy of Lu & Mon Limited ABN 41614664416 (‘Lu & Mon’). We recognise that your personal information is important to you and we share your concerns about how and what personal information is collected, used and shared. Your rights to privacy are protected by law, and this policy does not limit those rights.

We are committed to safeguarding your personal information and will always handle your personal information securely and carefully. We comply with all applicable data protection and privacy legislation and codes affecting your personal information.

The purpose of this document is to set out our policies in relation to the collection, holding, use and disclosure of personal information relating to an individual. Personal information means information (including information or an opinion forming part of a database), whether true or not, and whether recorded in a material form or not, about an individual whose identity is apparent, or can reasonably be ascertained from the information or opinion. Sensitive information (for example your political opinions or health information) is a special subset of personal information which is subject to more strict legal requirements, however we do not collect sensitive information. This Privacy Policy also sets out how you can make a complaint if you believe your legal rights have been breached.

Our Privacy Policy applies to all your dealings with us via our website or any of Lu & Mon brands’ websites.

You can choose not to provide us with certain information, for example, you can choose to use our website without creating an account. However, this may restrict our ability to provide you with our services or access to certain features on our websites.

We also collect information from you automatically. Please see “Information collected automatically – Cookies etc.” below for more information about how we collect your information in this way.
