Because we sell alcohol and are required to verify age and identity, it is generally not practicable for us to deal with you anonymously or under a pseudonym when you place an order.

2. Personal Information We Collect

The personal information we collect depends on how you interact with us.

It may include:

  • your name;
  • billing and delivery addresses;
  • email address;
  • account username and password;
  • order and transaction information;
  • products viewed or purchased;
  • delivery instructions;
  • communications and enquiries;
  • age or date-of-birth confirmation;
  • information used to verify that you or an order recipient is at least 18 years old;
  • partial payment information and payment status;
  • refund and dispute information;
  • website usage information;
  • IP address;
  • browser, device and operating system information;
  • pages visited and links selected;
  • referral source;
  • cookie, advertising and analytics identifiers; and
  • information you voluntarily provide to us.

We generally do not receive or store your complete payment card details. Payments are processed by Stripe.

We do not collect sensitive information (such as health information, racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs or political opinions) unless you voluntarily provide it to us and it is reasonably necessary for our functions.

3. Information About Age Verification

As we sell alcohol, we may collect information required to confirm that a purchaser or recipient is at least 18 years of age.

Depending on the circumstances, this may include:

  • a declaration that you are at least 18;
  • your date of birth;
  • confirmation that valid identification was presented;
  • delivery confirmation information; or
  • information supplied by Australia Post or another authorised delivery provider.

We do not retain copies or scans of identity documents (such as driver licences or passports) used for age verification. Where identification is checked, we record only the fact that verification occurred and, where required, the type of verification completed.

We will only collect age-verification information reasonably necessary to comply with legal, licensing, fraud-prevention and delivery requirements.

4. How We Collect Personal Information

We may collect information directly from you when you:

No website, electronic transmission or storage system is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we take reasonable precautions appropriate to the nature of the information we hold.

You are responsible for keeping your account password confidential and notifying us if you believe your account has been accessed without authorisation.

16. Data Breaches

If we become aware of a data breach, we will assess and respond to it in accordance with the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and other applicable law.

Where required, we will notify affected individuals and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or to comply with legal, accounting, taxation, liquor licensing, fraud-prevention and recordkeeping obligations.

Order and transaction records may be retained for a number of years where required for business and legal purposes.

When information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to delete it, destroy it or de-identify it, unless retention is required or authorised by law.

18. Accessing and Correcting Your Information

You may request access to personal information we hold about you or ask us to correct information that is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date.

To make a request, email info@luxso.com.au.

In some circumstances, we may be permitted or required to refuse access. If this occurs, we will generally explain the reason, unless prohibited by law.

19. Deleting an Account or Personal Information
