Bulk Nutrients Privacy Policy

Hey there! It's great to see you are interested in your data privacy, and how we use your information. We'd love you to pay attention to a couple of bits of key info before you dive into the legalese below.

Always use a secure password or passphrase

We have very tight cyber security here at Bulk Nutrients, but that won't prevent credential stuffing and some other forms of cybercrime.

Setting a secure password is crucial to protect your personal information from cybercriminals. A strong password should be at least 12 characters long and if it's random characters it should include a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers and symbols.

Avoid using easily guessable information such as your name, birthdate, or pet’s name. Also, consider using a passphrase (a mix of random words or part of a song lyric that's easy for you to remember, but very hard to guess).

Do not use the same password/passphrase for Bulk Nutrients, that you have used on other sites

Let's not make it easy for them, ok? If you use the same password in multiple places, you are just increasing the hurt if it gets leaked or discovered via a hack.

If you find it hard to remember all your passwords (and who doesn't!) consider using a password manager.

This policy explains how Bioflex Nutrition Pty Ltd (ACN 158 981 447) operating as Bulk Nutrients (We, Our or Us) collect, store, use, disclose, maintain and destroy personal information. In this policy We refer to an individual as You unless talking about all individuals generally.

We comply with the Privacy Act 1998 (Cth) as amended (Act) including the Australian Privacy Principles. This policy was last updated 24 August 2020.

  • Individuals can access and/or correct or request to erase personal information We hold about them
  • We only disclose personal information to others in the normal course of business

Personal Information:

means information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable whether the information or opinion is true or not, and whether the information or opinion is recorded in a material form or not. Some examples of personal information include name, email address, mailing address, telephone number and payment card information.

In general, We do not collect sensitive information from Our customers.

How is Information Collected?

We normally collect personal information, including sensitive information, directly from individuals. We may do this by asking the individual to register an account, complete a form (e.g. an order form), asking them to respond to a request for information (e.g. a job application) or in the course of discussions with them.

We may also collect personal information automatically when individuals interact with Us. This may include:

  • Information collected when an individual visits Our website, including information about their web browser, cookies, information about what links are clicked and time spent on the website.
  • Information collected when an individual telephones Us, including their telephone number where available by caller ID.

We may also receive personal information about individuals from third parties. We will only do so where this is lawful and fair, and where it is not reasonably practicable for Us to acquire that information directly from the individual.

Whose information do We collect?

We do not normally collect personal information about individuals who simply visit Our website or make general enquiries by telephone. Individuals are welcome to remain anonymous or use a pseudonym in these circumstances.

We collect personal information and sensitive information about Our customers and prospective customers to enable us to deliver services to them and to maintain Our relationship with them.

We may collect personal information from other individuals, in which case We will take reasonable steps to ensure they are aware of what personal information is collected and the purpose of collection.

How is information stored?

We may store personal information and sensitive information We collect about individuals in either soft or hard copy, or both. We take reasonable steps to ensure there is no unauthorised access to or misuse of this information while We store it.

We take appropriate security measures to protect Your personal information from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or destruction.

We store personal information as regular business records. These may be destroyed when no longer required. Records of transactions are normally kept for seven years.

Our employees, and any agents that access personal information are bound by confidentiality and privacy obligations in agreements with Us.

How do We use personal information?

We only use personal information for the purpose for which it is collected or for related purposes. We only use sensitive information for the purpose for which it is collected or for directly related purposes, unless the individual agrees otherwise or the use or disclosure is allowed by law.

We may use some personal information for direct marketing, but will always provide a simple opt-out mechanism and honour an individual’s request to not receive direct marketing materials from Us.

  • processing Your order
  • tracking and reporting to You on progress of Your order
  • communicating with You generally and providing information or services requested by You
  • protecting against fraud or error
  • complying with legal or government requirements
  • to fulfil any requests from You or for purposes that would be reasonably apparent to the average person at the time we collect it.

When do We disclose personal information to others?

We will only disclose personal information to others for the purpose for which it is provided or a related purpose (for example, information may be given to a contractor to enable a payment to be processed or an order to be delivered).

We do not sell personal information, and generally do not transfer or otherwise disclose personal information to third parties. However, We may disclose Your personal information to trusted third party providers to process Your order or deliver information or content to You. Examples may include Customer

Relationship Management (CRM) software, credit card processing (and with your consent storage of payment information) and providing customer service.

We will not normally disclose personal or sensitive information to anyone overseas. If We disclose personal or sensitive information to an overseas recipient, We will take reasonable steps to ensure they comply with the Australian Privacy Principles.

The above excludes text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

We may disclose personal or sensitive information to others where required or authorised by law, for example in response to a court order or police investigation.
