In-person market payments may be processed through Shopify POS and supported Tap to Pay services, including card and digital-wallet payments.

The payment methods available may change as Shopify or NWLY updates its supported payment options.

Delivery

NWLY uses Australia Post to deliver online orders within Australia.

NWLY may provide Australia Post with information necessary to fulfil and deliver an order, including the customer’s name, delivery address, contact details and delivery instructions.

Australia Post handles personal information in accordance with its own privacy policy.

Marketing communications

NWLY may send promotional emails where you have subscribed or where otherwise permitted by law.

You can unsubscribe from promotional emails at any time by:

Unsubscribing from marketing does not prevent NWLY from sending necessary service communications, such as order confirmations, delivery updates, receipts, account notices or responses to customer-service requests.

NWLY does not currently use SMS or WhatsApp for marketing communications.

Analytics, advertising and social media

NWLY may use Shopify, Google, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and TikTok to:

  • Understand visits and activity on the NWLY website

  • Measure advertising performance

  • Understand how customers find and interact with NWLY

  • Display or improve advertising

  • Communicate with customers through social media

  • Create audiences or personalise advertising where permitted

These services may use cookies, pixels, device identifiers and similar technologies. Information collected by these providers is handled under their respective privacy policies.

Your use of Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Google, YouTube or another third-party platform is also subject to that platform’s terms and privacy policy.

Cookies and similar technologies

NWLY, Shopify and relevant service providers may use cookies, pixels and similar technologies to:

  • Operate essential website and checkout functions

  • Remember customer selections and preferences

  • Keep accounts and transactions secure

  • Maintain shopping-cart functionality

  • Measure website traffic and performance

  • Understand browsing and purchasing activity

  • Support analytics, marketing and advertising

  • Detect fraud and misuse

Some cookies are necessary for the website to function. Other technologies may support analytics, personalisation or advertising.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may affect website, account, cart or checkout functionality.

Shopify may also provide privacy controls, consent options or data-sharing opt-out tools where required for particular visitors or regions.

Shopify and Shopify Network Intelligence

The NWLY store is hosted by Shopify. Shopify processes information about customers’ access to and use of the store to provide, protect and improve its services.

NWLY currently has Shopify Network Intelligence enabled. This allows Shopify to securely use information from customer interactions with NWLY, Shopify and other Shopify merchants to provide enhanced services. These may include fraud prevention, analytics, advertising measurement, product recommendations and personalisation.

Information submitted through the NWLY store may be shared with Shopify and service providers located outside Australia. Other Shopify merchants cannot directly see NWLY customer information through Shopify Network Intelligence.

More information is available in the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy.

Depending on the customer’s location and applicable law, Shopify privacy requests and available data-sharing controls may be accessed through the Shopify Privacy Portal.

When we disclose personal information

NWLY may disclose personal information where reasonably necessary to:

  • Shopify and its related services

  • Shopify Payments and other payment processors

  • PayPal

  • Australia Post

  • Microsoft 365 and other communication or cloud-service providers

  • Google and YouTube

  • Facebook and Instagram, operated by Meta

  • TikTok

  • Technology, analytics, security, professional and customer-support providers

  • Government bodies, regulators, law-enforcement agencies or courts where required or authorised by law

  • Professional advisers where reasonably necessary

  • A purchaser or adviser involved in a proposed or completed sale, transfer or restructuring of the NWLY business

NWLY does not sell personal information or purchase customer mailing lists.

Service providers are given access only to information reasonably required to perform their functions or provide their services.

Overseas processing and disclosure

Some service providers used by NWLY operate or store information outside Australia.

Personal information may therefore be processed in countries including the United States, Canada, Singapore and other locations where Shopify, Microsoft, Google, Meta, TikTok, PayPal or their service providers operate.

The countries involved may change as service providers update their infrastructure and subprocessors.

Where applicable, NWLY takes reasonable steps when selecting and using service providers to ensure that personal information is handled appropriately. Overseas providers may also be subject to privacy laws that differ from Australian privacy laws.

Data security

NWLY takes reasonable administrative, technical and organisational measures to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

These measures may include:

  • Restricting access to business systems and customer information

  • Using account authentication and access controls

  • Using reputable ecommerce, payment, email and delivery providers

  • Keeping relevant devices, applications and systems updated

  • Using secure payment and checkout services

  • Reviewing access when it is no longer required

No internet transmission or electronic storage system is completely secure. Customers should avoid sending sensitive payment or identity information through ordinary email or social media messages.

How long we keep personal information

NWLY retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including to:

  • Provide products and customer service

  • Maintain customer accounts

  • Process returns, exchanges, refunds and complaints

  • Maintain business, taxation and transaction records

  • Prevent fraud and resolve disputes

  • Meet legal and regulatory obligations

  • Establish, exercise or defend legal claims

When personal information is no longer reasonably required, NWLY will take reasonable steps to delete it, destroy it or de-identify it, subject to any applicable legal or technical retention requirements.

Information held by Shopify or another service provider may also be retained under that provider’s legal obligations, retention practices and privacy policy.

Access, correction and deletion requests

You may contact NWLY to:

  • Request access to personal information NWLY holds about you

  • Ask NWLY to correct information that is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date

  • Request deletion of personal information where deletion is reasonably available and not prevented by legal, security or record-keeping obligations

  • Withdraw marketing consent or update communication preferences

  • Ask questions about how your personal information has been handled

NWLY may need to verify your identity before completing a request.

Some information cannot be deleted immediately where it must be retained for taxation, transaction, fraud prevention, dispute resolution or other legal purposes.

Requests relating to information processed independently by Shopify may also be submitted through the Shopify Privacy Portal.
