Pearls and Poetry also collects personal data – only what is necessary to fulfil orders and answer customer queries. These include names, email addresses and physical addresses. This information is only used for ordering purposes.
Customer addresses are provided to Australia Post for the purposes of delivering orders. Phone numbers, if provided by customers, are also recorded on parcels, so that freight providers may easily contact customers in the event that delivery problems are encountered. During checkout, destination countries and postcodes are sent to the Australia Post online system, to obtain immediate shipping quotes.
