Legal Basis for Processing
We process personal data only when we have a valid legal basis to do so. The legal bases we rely on include:
Consent
When you have given clear consent for us to process your personal data for a specific purpose, such as subscribing to our newsletter or submitting an enquiry form.
Contractual Necessity
When processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you, such as providing our furniture manufacturing services.
Legitimate Interests
When processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, provided these interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms. This includes improving our services and website functionality.
Legal Obligation
When we need to comply with a legal obligation, such as maintaining business records for tax purposes.
Your Rights Under GDPR
If you are located in the EEA, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
Right to Access
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. We will provide this information free of charge within one month of receiving your request.
Right to Rectification
You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate personal data we hold about you, or complete any incomplete data.
Right to Erasure
You have the right to request that we delete your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when the data is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected.
Right to Restrict Processing
You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to transmit that data to another controller.
Right to Object
You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, including processing for direct marketing purposes.
Right to Withdraw Consent
Where we rely on your consent to process your personal data, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. This will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
How to Exercise Your Rights
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details provided above. We will respond to your request within one month. In some cases, we may need to verify your identity before processing your request.
If you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in the EU member state where you reside, work, or where the alleged infringement occurred.
International Data Transfers
As we are based in Australia, personal data you provide to us may be transferred to and processed in Australia. We ensure that any such transfers are conducted in compliance with GDPR requirements and that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data.
Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised or unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction, or damage. These measures include:
- Encryption of data in transit
- Secure storage systems
- Access controls and authentication
- Regular security assessments
- Staff training on data protection
Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected. The retention period depends on the nature of the data and our legal obligations. When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymised.
