8. Marketing
We will provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising. We have established the following personal data control mechanisms:
Promotional offers from us
We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and Profile Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services and offers may be relevant to you (we call this marketing).
You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us or purchased goods from us, or if you provided us with your details when you entered a competition or registered for a promotion and, in each case, you have not opted out of receiving that marketing.
Opting Out
You can ask us to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by logging into your online account through the website and checking or unchecking relevant boxes to adjust your marketing preferences, or by following the opt-out links on any marketing message sent to you, or by contacting us at any time. Where you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to personal data provided to us as a result of warranty/guarantee registration or other transactions.
Third-party marketing
We will obtain your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any company outside of Toolstream Limited for marketing purposes.
9. How long we keep your data
We will retain your personal data for as long as is necessary to provide you with our services and for a reasonable period thereafter to enable us to meet our contractual and legal obligations and to deal with complaints and claims.
At the end of the retention period, your personal data will be securely deleted or anonymised. We may also use and share Aggregated Data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated Data may be derived from your personal data but is not considered personal data in law as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this privacy notice.
10. Sharing your Personal Data
We may have to share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in the table in section 7 above.
• Other companies in the Toolstream Limited Group acting as joint controllers or processors and who are based in the United Kingdom and provide IT and system administration services and undertake leadership reporting.
• Service providers based in the United Kingdom, Europe, and United States of America who provide IT and system administration services.
• Professional advisers including lawyers, bankers, auditors and insurers based in the United Kingdom who provide consultancy, banking, legal, insurance, and accounting services.
• HM Revenue & Customs, regulators and other authorities based in the United Kingdom who require reporting of processing activities in certain circumstances.

• Automated marketing services, based in Europe, who provide marketing and postal, email and text marketing services.
• Service providers based in Europe and United States of America who provide shipping services for goods purchased from us.

• Third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this privacy notice.
We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
11. International Transfers
Our engaged External Third Parties may be located in Australia or overseas. As a result, your personal information may be disclosed to, stored in, or processed in countries outside Australia.
Where we disclose personal information to overseas recipients, we take reasonable steps to ensure that the recipient does not breach the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) in relation to that information. We do this by implementing appropriate safeguards, which may include:
• Disclosing personal information only to recipients located in countries with privacy laws or binding schemes that provide protections substantially similar to the Australian Privacy Principles;
• Entering into legally binding agreements with overseas recipients that require them to handle personal information in a manner consistent with Australian privacy law and applicable international data protection standards; and/or
• Implementing additional contractual, technical and organisational measures where appropriate to safeguard personal information.
In some circumstances, we may rely on an exception under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) that permits overseas disclosure without taking these steps (for example, where you have expressly consented to the disclosure).
If you would like further information about the safeguards we have in place for overseas disclosures, please contact us using the details set out in this Privacy Notice.
12. Your rights and how to complain
