Personal information we collect automatically

Our website uses cookies to remember information such as your login details and personal site preferences.
Purposes and legal basis for processing your personal information
All processing and use of your personal information is justified. The following is an overview of the types of personal information we process, the purposes of processing, i.e. how we will use your personal information, and the justified legal basis for processing your personal information:
Brand Tracking Surveys
Types of Personal Information
Information necessary to convene and communicate with a pool of survey respondents including contact and demographic information, and the views and opinions of survey respondents in the context of brand-specific surveys.
All surveys are managed by a third-party service provider, so Tracksuit does not process these types of information itself. Tracksuit only receives anonymised survey responses that do not constitute or contain personal information under applicable privacy laws. We work closely with our service providers to ensure that all survey data remains anonymised throughout its use, and whilst we may analyse trends and patterns from this anonymised data, we do not (a) attempt or permit attempts to re-identify survey respondents, or (b) combine that data with other data sets in a way that could lead to re-identification.
Purpose
For the provision of our products and services to our customers.
Legal Basis
All surveys are conducted with the fully informed, freely given, unbundled and explicit consent of the survey respondents.
Business Partners (customers and suppliers)
Types of Personal Information
First name, surname, email address, business address, business phone number / mobile phone number, information about your professional expertise and experience.
Purpose
For the provision of our products and services, which includes processing/fulfilling orders, sending invoices and payment reminders, collecting payments and any other general contract administration.
To maintain a relationship with you as a customer, improve the products and services that we provide to you, and deal with any enquiries or queries.
To send marketing materials, updates, newsletters and other related information, including, sending solicited information (e.g. quotes in response to an enquiry).
To conduct data analytics and market research for statistical and survey purposes and for internal business administration.
Legal Basis
The processing is necessary for performance of a contract.
Where the processing goes beyond contractual necessity, the legal basis for our use of your personal information is our legitimate business interests in:
- improving and developing our products and services
- responding to any correspondence or queries you send us, and to send service information about our products and/or services
- to send you communications related to similar products or services to which you have previously purchased or entered into negotiations to purchase
- to measure the use of our products and/or services and interaction to inform and improve service/product direction and development and to enable provision of accurate and reliable reporting.
Where our legitimate business interests are outweighed by your privacy rights, we will rely on your consent as the legal basis for our use of your personal information. Your consent will always be obtained in a way that meets the requirements of applicable privacy laws.
Website users
Types of Personal Information
Information about your visits to our website, your domain, IP address, country code, browser type, your operating system and device type, the number of times you visit our website, your interactions with our website, the pages you’ve visited on our website and the links you clicked on, search terms used and the source from where you originated, referring site (if any) from which you clicked through to our website, your screen resolution and language setting of your browser.
Purpose
To help us to keep our website available and secure.
To improve your experience when you visit our website. This includes: (a) for statistical analysis to evaluate, improve, test and monitor the effectiveness of our website; (b) to monitor metrics such as total number of visitors and traffic data (including demographic patterns); and (c) to ensure content on our website is presented in the most effective manner for you and to enhance your use of our website.
Legal Basis
Our legitimate business interests to provide and maintain our website through utilising cookies that are strictly necessary.
Your consent for cookies that are not strictly necessary, such as cookies relating to performance, functionality and target/advertising.
Please refer to our Cookie Policy for further details about our use of cookies.
All Data Subjects
Types of Personal Information
Personal Information, comprising all types of data above mentioned.
Purpose
In connection with any merger, sale, transfer of our assets, investment, acquisition, bankruptcy, or similar event or corporate transaction.
To help us improve and optimise our products and services.
Legal Basis
Necessary for our legitimate business interests to ensure we can protect and grow our business.
Necessary for our legitimate business interests to maintain our reputation as a leading provider of brand health tracking services to customers across the globe.
When the justification for processing is our legitimate business interests, those interests are to use supplier, customer and website user data to conduct and develop our business activities with them and with others, while limiting the use of personal information to those purposes that strictly support the conduct and development of our business within the reasonable expectation of the individuals concerned and in a way which does not outweigh their privacy rights.
We may process any of the personal information we hold to the extent necessary to defend, establish and exercise legal claims or to comply with legal or regulatory obligations.
Where we need to collect personal information due to a legal or regulatory obligation, or for performance of a contract, and you do not provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with our products/services). We will notify you of this at the time.
Disclosing your personal information with others
We share your personal information in the manner and for the purposes described below:
- with other companies within our group, and where such disclosure is necessary to provide you with our products and services or to manage our business. The other companies include Tracksuit Australia Pty Ltd and Tracksuit, Inc.;
- with third party service providers (who will operate under our instructions) to assist us in providing information, products and services to you, in conducting and managing our business, in managing and improving our products, services or website. These third parties have agreed to confidentiality restrictions and use any personal information we share with them or which they collect on our behalf solely for the purpose of providing the contracted product or service to us. These include document management service providers who store or destroy your personal information on our behalf, and IT service providers who help manage our IT and back-office systems;
- with government organisations and agencies, law enforcement, regulators to comply with all applicable laws, regulations and rules, and requests of law enforcement, regulatory and other governmental agencies;
- banks and payment providers to authorize and complete payments;
- we may share in aggregate, statistical form, non-personal information regarding the visitors to our website, traffic patterns, and website usage with our partners, affiliates or advertisers.
If, in the future, we sell or transfer some or all of our business or assets to a third party, we reserve the right to transfer your personal information to a potential or actual third party purchaser of our business or assets in order to facilitate any proposed or actual sale or other disposition of the business as a going concern. We will ensure that the transferee (or proposed transferee) will be bound by this Policy.
International transfers
As a New Zealand-based company, we may process and store your personal information in New Zealand or with our service providers in other countries. For transfers from the EU/UK to New Zealand, we rely on New Zealand's "adequacy status" recognized by both EU and UK authorities. For transfers to other countries, we implement appropriate safeguards as required by law, including adequacy decisions where available or Standard Contractual Clauses with necessary addenda to ensure your information receives equivalent protection.
Any requests for information we receive from law enforcement or regulators will be carefully checked before personal information is disclosed.
If you would like to find out more about any such transfers, please get in touch with us using the contact details set out at the beginning or end of this Policy.
Storing and protecting your personal information
We will safely store your personal information. We apply a general rule that we will retain it only for so long as it is required to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as otherwise required by law.
In some circumstances we may retain your personal information for longer periods of time, for instance where we are required to do so in accordance with legal, regulatory, tax or accounting requirements, or by a legal process, legal authority, or other governmental entity having authority to make the request, for so long as required.
In specific circumstances we may also retain your personal information for longer periods of time so that we have an accurate record of your dealings with us in the event of any complaints or challenges, or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation relating to your personal information or dealings.
Where your personal information is no longer required we will ensure it is either securely deleted or stored in a way which means it will no longer be used by the business. We engage the services of a specialised service provider to store or destroy your personal information on our behalf. We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that such agencies comply with applicable privacy laws.
We are committed to protecting the personal information we receive from you. We have implemented and maintain appropriate technical and organisational security measures, policies and procedures designed to reduce the risk of accidental destruction or loss, or the unauthorised disclosure or access to such information appropriate to the nature of the information concerned.
As the security of information depends in part on the security of the computer you use to communicate with us and the security you use to protect User IDs and passwords, please take appropriate measures to protect this information.
It is important that the personal information we hold about you is up to date and accurate. Please keep us informed of any changes to your personal information.
Your rights and how to exercise them
You have rights in relation to your personal information, however, in certain circumstances these rights might not be absolute, as applicable data privacy laws provide that we are not required to comply with requests in certain circumstances.
You are not required to pay any charge for exercising your rights, although we may charge a reasonable fee if we incur additional costs in complying with your request and the law permits us to recover those costs from you. We will endeavour to respond to you within one month (unless you have made a number of requests or your request is complex, in which case we may take up to an extra two months to respond).
Please note that, where we ask you for proof of identification, or any clarification and/or further information on the scope of the request, this may extend the time it takes for us to respond.
Your rights in relation to your personal information may include the following, depending on applicable data privacy laws. Please note that where you are a resident in the EU or the UK all the following rights apply (subject to certain exemptions, and in some cases dependent upon the processing activity we are undertaking):
- Right to withdraw consent - where applicable, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time if that is the legal basis that we rely on to process your personal information. For example, if you wish to opt-out of receiving electronic marketing communications, you can use the 'unsubscribe' link provided in our emails or otherwise contact us directly and we will stop sending you communications.
- Right of access, rectification and erasure - you have the right to request access to, and obtain a copy of, any of your personal information that we may hold, to request correction of any inaccurate information relating to you and to request the deletion of your personal information under certain circumstances.
- Data portability - where we are relying (as the justification for processing) upon your consent, or the fact that the processing is necessary to perform a contract to which you are party or to take steps at your request prior to entering a contract, and the personal information is processed by automatic means, you have the right to receive all such personal information which you have provided us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and also to require us to transmit it to another controller where this is technically feasible.
- Right to restriction of processing - you have the right to restrict our processing of your personal information (that is, allow only its storage) where:
- you contest the accuracy of the personal information, until we have taken sufficient steps to correct or verify its accuracy;
- where the processing is unlawful but you do not want us to erase the personal information;
- where we no longer need your personal information for the purposes of the processing, but you require such personal information for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; or
- where you have objected to processing justified on legitimate interest grounds (see below), pending verification as to whether we have compelling legitimate grounds to continue processing.
- Where your personal information is subject to restriction we will only process it with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
- You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority of your habitual residence, place of work or place of alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of your personal information infringes applicable law.
- Right to object to processing (including profiling) based on legitimate interest grounds - where we are relying upon legitimate business interests to process your personal information, you have the right to object to that processing. If you object, we must stop that processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or we need to process the personal information for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims. Where we rely upon legitimate interest as a basis for processing we believe that we can demonstrate such compelling legitimate grounds, but we will consider each case on an individual basis.
- Right to object to direct marketing (including profiling) - you have the right to object to our use of your personal information (including profiling) for direct marketing purposes, such as when we use your personal information to invite you to our promotional events.
Please contact us using the details set out at the beginning or end of this Policy, if you wish to exercise any of your rights, or if you have any enquiries or complaints regarding the processing of your personal information.
Marketing
We take steps to limit direct marketing to a reasonable and proportionate level and to send you communications which we believe may be of interest or relevance to you, based on the information we have about you. You may change your marketing preferences at any time by contacting us.
In most cases our processing of your personal information for marketing purposes is based on our legitimate interests, although in some cases (such as where required by law) it may be based on your consent. In particular, you can always opt-out of email marketing communications by clicking the "unsubscribe" link at the bottom of marketing emails, or by contacting us using the contact details provided at the beginning or end of this Policy.
When you choose to unsubscribe, your data is automatically moved to a suppression list to prevent your email address being accidentally added to our database again. If you wish your data to be fully deleted from our systems, we will do so at your request but, if your email address is at any point added back into our newsletter database, by you or on your behalf, there will be no automated process in place to prevent a newsletter being emailed to you again. Please note that where we have another lawful basis for processing, we will continue to process personal information for other purposes – for example, we may process information based on contract necessity. You may also receive indirect marketing from us by way of general marketing communications (e.g. post or non-targeted adverts in the media etc).
Do Not Sell or Share my Personal Information (California and other US Residents)
