Copy of Privacy Policy
SIN Eyewear is committed to respecting the privacy of your personal information. This Policy sets out our personal information management practices.
Throughout this Policy, we refer to your “personal information” which means information which identifies you as an individual or from which you are reasonably identifiable.
References to “us”, “we” and “our” are references to SIN Eyewear and references to “you” or “your” are references to you the individual whose personal information we handle. This Policy is primarily concerned with our customers. Our current and former staff should contact our human resources team for further information about their privacy.
Personal information collected
The type of personal information we collect is dependent on the type of service or interaction you have with us. Personal information we may collect includes your name, address, phone and other contact details (fax, email etc), date of birth. payment details, identification information, audio/video surveillance records from our premises and details of your interactions with us (including records of email, telephone and online interactions). Sometimes we will also collect other personal information, such as where you shop or what your interests are, so that we can improve our service and product offering to you. If you apply for a position with us, we may also collect information about your qualifications, skills, experience, character and screening checks (including health, reference, background, directorship, financial probity, identity, eligibility to work, vocational suitability and criminal record checks).
Generally, we try to collect personal information directly from you, for example when you subscribe to our emails, join a mailing list, enter a competition, submit an enquiry, or provide feedback to us. There are also certain situations in which we may collect personal information about you from someone else. For example we may collect information from third parties including public sources, your organisation, your representatives and information service providers.

We collect, use and disclose personal information for a number of reasons, including to: deliver, administer and improve the products and services that we offer you, complete other transactions with you or on your behalf, protect against fraud or theft, conduct market research, work with our service providers, maintain and update our records, manage our recruitment process, protect and uphold the rights, property and safety of us, our customers and others, facilitate acquisitions and potential acquisitions of our business and assets and provide offers and promotions that we consider may be of interest or benefit to you.
For example, we may provide personal information about you to our service providers who assist us in providing our goods and services. These may include companies that assist SIN Eyewear with data processing and analysis, research, mail, promotional, customer contact, technology, banking, payment, debt collection or maintenance services. We will only disclose your personal information to those third party service providers on a confidential basis so that the service provider can effectively provide those services.
