FOSSEY’S GIN PRIVACY POLICY

November 2019
Introduction

1. Mildura Heart Pty Ltd (Fossey’s Gin) is committed to respecting the privacy of
your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we deal with your
personal information that we collect, use, disclose or process.
2. We will update this Privacy Policy from time to time when we change how we
deal with personal information. We will post any changes to the Privacy Policy
on our website, and will endeavour to notify you when this occurs.
3. In addition to the provisions of this Privacy Policy, there may also be specific
and additional privacy and consent provisions that apply to certain collection
channels of personal information. Because those specific and additional
provisions also relate to your privacy protection, we recommend that you
review them wherever they appear. In the event of any inconsistency between
the provisions of this Privacy Policy and those other specific and additional
provisions, the specific and additional provisions will prevail.
Definition of personal information
4. Throughout this Privacy Policy, we use the term 'personal information' to refer
to information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, including
information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is
reasonably identifiable, whether the information or opinion is true or not; and
whether the information or opinion is recorded in a material form or not. For
example, your full name, date of birth, address, mobile telephone number,
email address and credit card details are examples of information which may
constitute personal information. Personal information may also include
information we may collect about your individual preferences.
Problems, complaints or queries
5. If you have any questions about our Privacy Policy, or any problems or
complaints about how we have collected, used, stored, handled, disclosed
and/or processed your personal information, please contact our privacy officer

On what basis do we process your data?

Lawful basis of processing
7. Fossey’s Gin will only collect, monitor, use, disclose, or process any personal
information about you with your consent (which we endeavour to obtain at the
same time as collecting your personal information) or if it is otherwise lawful to
do so. The only personal information collected by us is what has been
provided to or collected by us in accordance with this Privacy Policy or has
been provided to us lawfully by third parties. We will generally deal with your
personal information for the primary purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.
8. For individuals in the European Union, Fossey’s Gin may also rely on the
lawful bases of contract and legitimate interest. That is, where you enter into a
contract with us, Fossey’s Gin will process your personal information because
it is necessary for the performance of that contract with you. In some
circumstances, such as fraud prevention, Fossey’s Gin may also have a
legitimate commercial interest in processing your personal information that is
not outweighed by your interests, rights and freedoms. Fossey’s Gin may also
request your explicit consent to process your personal data from time to time
for various purposes.
9. Fossey’s Gin also reserves the right to use, disclose or otherwise process any
personal information to satisfy any law, regulation or legal request, or in
relation to Fossey’s Gin’s other legitimate interests such as where that
personal information is relevant to legal action relating to Fossey’s Gin).

These include:
1. (access) to request access to your personal information from us, in a

access to personal information, in which case Fossey’s Gin will provide
you with a written notice of its refusal to provide access;
2. (correction) to request that we correct your personal information;

on a website);
3. (objection and restriction) in some circumstances, to object to the use
of your personal data by us and request that we restrict our use of your

channels will only seek information in this way. However, where it is not
practicable for the purposes for which information is collected, we will seek
the personal information identified above. It will not be practicable to deal with
you on an anonymous or pseudonymous basis when we wish to send you
direct marketing materials or need to provide you with goods or services

persons who are under the age of eighteen (18) years old. Personal
information will not be knowingly collected about any person who is known by
Fossey’s Gin to be under the age of eighteen (18). 
Passive Information Collection
35. As with many commercial websites (and mobile and tablet applications), we
may also collect information which tells us about visitors to our websites. For
example, we may collect information about the date, time and duration of
visits and which pages of a website are most commonly accessed. This
information is generally not linked to the identity of visitors, except where a
website is accessed via links in an email we have sent or where we are able
to uniquely identify the device or user accessing a website. By accessing a
website via links in an email we have sent and/or by accessing a website
generally including when you are logged into an account, you consent to the
collection of such information where it is personal information.
36. As you navigate through our websites, certain information can be passively
collected (that is, gathered without you actively providing the information)
using various technologies, such as Unique Device Identifiers (UDI), cookies,
Internet tags or web beacons, and navigational data collection (log files,
server logs, clickstream). In certain circumstances, this information may be
considered anonymous information or personal information under the Privacy
Act 1988 (Cth) and the GDPR, dependent on the device used and the method
by which an individual connects to the Internet. Your Internet browser
automatically transmits to the website you are browsing some of this
anonymous information or personal information, such as the URL of the
website you just came from, the Internet Protocol (IP) address, the UDI (if
applicable) and the browser version your device is currently using. Our
websites may also collect anonymous information or personal information
from your device through cookies and Internet tags or web beacons. You may
set your browser to notify you when a cookie is sent or to refuse cookies
altogether, but certain features of a website might not work without cookies
and this may limit the services provided by a website. Cookies and other
technical methods may involve the transmission of information either directly
to us or to another party authorised by us to collect information on our behalf.
37. Our websites may use and combine such passively collected anonymous
information or personal information and/or information from various third party
sources, including as described above, and may combine this anonymous
information or personal information with other personal information collected
from you to provide better service to website visitors and users, customise a
website based on your preferences, compile and analyse statistics and
trends, provide you with relevant advertising when you visit a website or a
third party website, and otherwise administer and improve a website for your
use. We may combine your visitor session information or other information
collected through tracking technologies with personally identifiable information
from time to time in order to understand and measure your online experiences
and to determine what products, promotions and services are likely to be of

interest to you. By accessing a website, you consent to information about you
being collected, compiled and used in this way.
38. For more information about cookies and how you can opt out, you can

Fossey’s Gin and other websites
39. Our websites may, from time to time, contain links to the websites of other
organisations which may be of interest to you. Their inclusion cannot be taken
to imply any endorsement or validation by us of the content of the third party
website. Linked websites are responsible for their own privacy practices and
you should check those websites for their respective privacy statements.
Fossey’s Gin is not responsible, nor does it accept any liability, for the
conduct of companies linked to our websites.
40. We may use third party advertisements on our Websites. All third party

number of anonymous users responding to the campaign. We do not have
access to or control of cookies placed by third parties.

41. Fossey’s Gin may provide areas on a Website where you can upload user-
generated content, post or provide information about yourself, communicate

limitation, other social media platforms and other public forums in which you
choose to participate. This information may become publicly available and
may be read, collected and used by others outside of our Websites. Fossey’s
