Sharing of your personal information

The privacy of our guests is of utmost importance and we do not disclose personal information to third parties for the purpose of allowing them to send marketing material to you.

In providing this consent, you understand and acknowledge that countries outside Australia do not always have the same privacy protection obligations as Australia in relation to personal information. However, we will take steps to ensure that your information is used by third parties securely and in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy. Please note the Privacy and Terms from Stripe.

Most of these overseas organisations also provide support and assistance in delivering services such as marketing newsletters.
