This privacy policy sets out how PerfectRoom handles your personal information. We do our best to comply with Australian privacy legislation.

We collect, hold, use and disclose personal information to promote or deliver our services. Personal information is information that identifies you or could be used to identify you. We do not sell or give away access to the personal information you provide to us.

By providing us with personal information, you consent to that information being collected, used, disclosed and stored in accordance with this privacy policy.

Staying Anonymous

You can browse this website anonymously. If you identify yourself to us, at that point we will collect your personal information.

Collecting personal information

At all times we aim to only collect the information we need for the services we are providing.  The kind of information that we collect from users and members may include:

  • your full name, address, contact details – phone, email
  • your employer or the real estate agency you work with
  • your design theme preferences
  • a property address for images uploaded by members
  • opinions and beliefs provided via surveys and questionnaires

The main way we collect personal information about you is when you give it to us, for example:

  • when you complete a contact form on our website
  • when you call our office
  • when you send us an email
  • when you respond to a survey
  • when you contact us via social media
  • when you ask for access to information we hold about you

For compliance purposes, you agree that we may keep any of your personal information for a period of seven years, although we are not obliged to do so.

Testimonials

If you provide us with a testimonial, you give us your consent for the use of your name and the date to be displayed on our website or in our other marketing material, together with the content of the testimonial that you provide.

Collecting information from Third Parties

We only collect information directly from you.

Social Networking Services and links to other websites

We may provide links to other websites or use social networking services such as Facebook and Instagram to communicate with the public about our work. These sites have their own privacy policies. When you communicate with us using these services we may be able to access additional information about you, but we do not take any information from your social media profile or use it outside that social media platform.  We will only use it to help us to communicate with you and the public. The social media platform will also handle your personal information for its own purposes.

Collecting sensitive information

We do not actively collect sensitive information about you, including information about your health, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, sexual orientation or criminal history. We will take steps to appropriately protect any sensitive information we do receive.

Third party providers have their own privacy policies. We also may also use tracking pixels, cookies and session tools to improve your experience when accessing our online services.

The data collected by cookies does not usually identify you but may be combined with other information to identify you. If we identify you using information from cookies, we may use that information to track how you use our online services and send you information more specific to your needs, or to invite you to purchase our products or services.

The kind of information that can be collected includes:

  • device specific information such as mobile network information
  • server logs including your IP address, the times you use our services and system activity

We provide access to your personal information in accordance with Australian privacy law, and may share your personal information with our professional advisors for the purpose of obtaining advice, or for compliance with our accounting or regulatory obligations.

Opt-out/ Closing your account

Our emails include the ability to opt-out and you can change your account setting to decide which different types of communications you would like to receive. Opting out of one type of communication (marketing emails) does not necessarily mean you will stop receiving all communications (service updates). Please check the communication settings on your membership account and the unsubscribe features of emails received from us.

If you open an account with PerfectRoom, please see the membership terms and conditions for information about how to close your account.

Accessing and correcting your personal information

We are not required to comply with mandatory data reporting obligations. However, if any of your personal information is lost, accessed or disclosed by us, whether intentionally, unintentionally or through no fault of PerfectRoom we may make reasonable efforts to notify any affected person within 30 days if the loss or disclosure of data is likely to result in serious harm to that person.
