Munchtime Privacy Policy

Munchtime is operated by Cookie Time Limited (CTL), a New Zealand based business which operates the Munchtime online store at munchtime.co.nz. The following outlines CTL’s Privacy Policy in respect of this website

Use of your information:
CTL does not pass on, sell, rent or otherwise provide your personal information, including email address and contact details, to third parties. We will only release account particulars and other personal information if we believe that release of same is appropriate to comply with law; facilitate court proceedings; apply or enforce our Terms and Conditions; or protect the rights, property, or safety of CTL, our website users, or others.

Membership registration:
When you register as a member of munchtime.co.nz, you will be asked to nominate a user name and password, and provide an email address and contact information. Our membership registration form may also require demographic information. Your contact information may be used to contact you if necessary, while demographic information may be used in order to provide you with special offers relevant to your location, see the Member Emails section below for more information on this

Updating your personal information:
Your personal information can be viewed in your member account/profile page and you can amend your personal data via this page, including changing your email address, delivery address, phone number and password. 

Membership cancellation:
If you wish to cancel your member registration to our website for any reason, simply send us an email requesting this. This will also unsubscribe you from our database.

Delivery address details:
CTL enables you to save multiple delivery addresses which we will store against your member account/profile. When you buy an item you will have the option to select one of these delivery addresses, or to enter a new delivery address, which will save to your profile/account page.

Member emails:
CTL will send emails to munchtime.co.nz members to document online shopping purchases and to notify of special deals in relation to the website. In addition CTL may send out emails promoting related products and services, for example retail store information. Member emails may also be sent in order to respond to any questions or comments you have sent us; to help monitor, develop or improve the website; to investigate any complaints relating to misuse of the website or breach of terms and conditions; to send you reminders; technical notices, security alerts, administrative messages, service bulletins and requested information; and to communicate and provide any additional information about us that we deem of interest to our members.

If you prefer not to receive these emails, you can unsubscribe from our database by using the link at the bottom of any emails you receive, or you can unsubscribe via your member account/profile page or by sending us an email with the word ‘unsubscribe’ in the subject line.

Emailing tools:
CTL provides tools on this website to tell a friend about products, send vouchers and resend order invoices. These tools must not be misused in any way to send spam or any other content which would violate our Privacy Policy or Terms and Conditions.

Spam:
We only send emails to our member database that we deem of interest to our members, as set out in the Member Emails section above. We do not pass on, sell, rent or otherwise provide your email address to third parties. In the event that you believe you have received spam email that is not a genuine Cookie Time communication please contact us so that we can investigate further.

Control of your password:
You are responsible for all actions taken with your user name, email address and password. Therefore we do not recommend that you disclose your munchtime.co.nz member password to any third parties. If you choose to share your user name, email address and password or your information with third parties, you are responsible for all actions taken with this information and therefore you should review that third party’s privacy policy. Forgotten password emails will be sent to your user email address. It is your responsibility to protect the security of this email account. CTL has no liability for any issues that arise if this account is not secure.

Credit card security:
We work diligently to protect the security of your personal information, including credit card information. Your credit card details do not get processed or transmitted through or via munchtime.co.nz; all transactions are processed through a secure payment service provider. CTL uses Windcave payment gateway, one of New Zealand’s leading online payment solutions to provide this service. Windcave hosts and manages our website payment page. All transaction sessions are stored and processed in encrypted strings.

Your credit card details are not held by CTL and cannot be accessed by CTL staff. However they may be held by Windcave in accordance with its Privacy Policy.

Cookies:
We’re all about cookies as delicious, scrumptious treats. In the web context, however, cookies are also the ‘technical’ name given to small pieces of information that are stored in a browser-related file on your computer’s hard drive in order to improve the user experience. Cookies are widely used on most major websites.

We mostly use ‘session’ cookies which are removed from your computer 20 minutes after you leave munchtime.co.nz. If you choose, a second cookie can be placed on your computer for our website to remember you. This cookie is intended to remain permanently. These are used so our website can remember that you have logged in already and prevent you doing so again. They can also be used to nominate that the website always remembers your password or keep you logged in.

Other information we collect:
We collect and use additional information to carry out internal research on our users’ demographics, interests, and behaviour to better understand what products and services are most relevant. This information may include the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on our website or not), which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on our website or not), what browser you are using, and your IP address.

If you send us personal correspondence, such as emails, live chats or letters, or if other users or third parties send us correspondence about your activities on our website, we may collect such information into a file specific to you.

Access and removal of information:
You have the right to access, change and delete personal data that you provide to us in becoming a member of munchtime.co.nz. Please refer to the Updating Your Personal Information section or email us.

Updates to our information practices:
From time to time, we may make changes to our information practices or update the functionality of our website. We will make any corresponding changes to our Privacy Policy in line with this, so we encourage you to periodically review this page. If you have any questions about our Privacy Policy please contact us.
