Your privacy while accessing our content, products and services is important to us. This page is to let you know what information we collect, how it is used and when it may be disclosed to third parties.
What information is collected?
Stamps.AU collects two types of information. The first is anonymous information provided by your web browser as you view our site and the second is personal information supplied by you as part of your registration to the website or from registering one of our products (such as the Australian Pictorial Computer Stamp Organiser).
Every time you visit a web page, information such as your IP Address, browser type &version, operating system and referring search engine or website (if any) is recorded along with the page requested, the time of the request and the result of the request (ok, page not found etc). This information is completely anonymous and is only available to us in an aggregated form. This information tells us how our visitors are using the site and to help us make it more responsive to your needs.
If you are interested in finding out more about how web server logs can be analyzed, you can search Google (or your favourite search engine) and have a look at some of the log analyzers that are available.
Personal information collected by Stamps.AU comes from two sources. Website registration/activity and Product registration.
When registering through the website we require your name and email address. You can optionally provide contact phone/fax numbers (used if we need to contact you to support one of our products or in relation to a purchase) and billing/shipping address information (required before you can purchase items through the website).
Product registration provides the above information aswell as Operating System details and (optionally) place of purchase.
Records of sales made through the Stamps.AU website are also kept.
