1. Data controller
This website (sistersite.nz) and the processing of personal data that takes place on it are the responsibility of SisterSite. For any privacy questions, requests or corrections, you can contact us at info@sistersite.nz.
2. Our principles
We collect only what is needed to run, secure and improve the site. We do not sell personal data and we do not collect sensitive information. We do not offer gambling services or open player accounts, so we do not process payment or gaming-account details.
3. What data we collect and on what basis
- Visitor analytics: page views, referring sources, approximate location and device type in aggregated and, where possible, anonymised form. Basis for processing: consent (cookies) or legitimate interest in improving the site.
- Cookies: essential, statistical and possible marketing cookies. Statistical and marketing cookies are set only with your consent.
- Server logs: IP address, timestamp and browser details for security and to prevent misuse. Basis for processing: legitimate interest.
- Contact messages: if you send us a message, we keep your contact details and your message so we can reply. Basis for processing: legitimate interest or consent.
4. Cookies
Cookies are small files stored on your device. Essential cookies are needed for the site to work and do not require consent. Statistical and marketing cookies require your consent, which you can give or refuse in the cookie notice and withdraw at any time in your browser settings. Blocking cookies may impair some features.
5. Third parties and affiliate links
This site may contain affiliate links. When you move through an affiliate link to a third-party website, that site's own privacy policy applies, which we have no control over. Analytics and affiliate networks may set their own cookies based on your consent.
6. Transfers outside New Zealand
If a service provider we use (for example an analytics service) transfers data overseas, we make sure the transfer has an appropriate safeguard, such as comparable privacy protections or standard contractual clauses, in line with applicable data-protection law.
7. Retention and data security
We keep data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes described, or for the period required by law. We protect the data with appropriate technical and organisational measures, such as encrypted connections (HTTPS) and access controls.
8. Your rights
You have the rights set out in applicable data-protection law: the right to access your data, to correct or delete it, to restrict or object to processing, to have your data ported from one system to another, and to withdraw any consent you have given. We handle requests without undue delay. Send your request to info@sistersite.nz.
9. Right to complain
If you believe we are processing your data in breach of data-protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority. In New Zealand, the supervisory authority is the Office of the Privacy Commissioner (privacy.org.nz).
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy, for example when legislation or our services change. We will publish the updated version on this page and note the date of the change at the top of the policy.
