Introduction

Your privacy is important to Melanoma New Zealand (referred to in this Privacy Policy as we, our or us). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and disclose the personal information that we collect from you or which we have obtained about you from a third party. It sets out various rights that you have in relation to that personal information. Please take a moment to read and understand it.

We may modify or amend this Privacy Policy from time to time by posting an updated version on our website (at www.melanoma.org.nz). By continuing to use the Site or any of our services, you consent to any such modifications or amendments.

This Privacy Policy explains:

How we collect personal information

We collect personal information about you by the following means:

when you sign up to our newsletter or mailing list;
when you make a donation to us;
when you contact us about fundraising for us;
when you contact us about volunteering for us;
when you volunteer for us at events;
if you enter into a competition or other promotion that we run;

when we otherwise provide information or services to you.

The kind of personal information we collect

We collect the personal information you give us or authorise others to provide to us (which may include your name, date of birth, and contact details including phone number and email address).

If you contact us via social media or a messaging platform (eg Facebook/Facebook Messenger), we may collect your name and social media profile information that we have access to, and any other information that you make available to us.

We may also keep a record of our communications with you.

If you are making a donation to us, we may collect and process your credit or debit card or other payment details that you provide to us.

How we use, and may share, your personal information

We use your personal information for the following purposes:

to provide you with any information or resources that you request or register for with us;
to process and respond to your queries or requests;
to process any donation or other payment that you make to us;
to administer a competition or promotion you have entered;

for any specific purpose which we notify you of at the time your personal information is collected;
to comply with relevant laws and regulations;
for our administrative purposes;
to improve the resources and services that we offer; and
to aggregate the personal information with other information or data.

We may disclose information about you:

to our service providers (including our hosting providers and payment processors) and other third parties to the extent reasonably required to carry out any of the purposes for which we may use your personal information (as outlined above);
if we are requested to do so in the course of legal proceedings or other investigations; or
with your authorisation or where we are otherwise permitted to do so by applicable law.

Where we have aggregated your personal information with other information or data, we may use, publish, disclose, provide or exploit the aggregated information or data set in any form and in any manner, except that:

we will not publish, disclose or provide the aggregated information or data set in a form where you are specifically identified; and

How we process payments

Payments made on the Site are made securely through our payment solutions provider, Salesforce (www.salesforce.com). Salesforce does not store, transmit or process credit card details – rather, its secure payment gateway creates ‘tokens’ using credit card details, and Salesforce uses these tokens to process credit card payments. Information which you supply to Salesforce is subject to Salesforce’s own privacy policy and terms and conditions.

How we store personal information

Certain information may be stored on our hosting provider’s servers. We have entered into appropriate arrangements requiring our hosting provider to keep the hosted information secure and confidential.

Where we store personal information ourselves, we ensure that it is kept safe and secure using generally accepted standards of security.
