Privacy Policy [October 2026]: Data Protection

Last updated 26 October 2026.

This policy explains how Sabin Hair handles personal information, consistent with the Privacy Act 2020 and its Information Privacy Principles.

What we collect

We collect very little. If you email us or use the contact form, we receive the name, email and message you provide. We don't run user accounts and we don't ask for gambling account details — please never send them.

Analytics and cookies

We use privacy-respecting analytics to understand which pages are useful. This may involve cookies or similar technology that collect de-identified usage data (pages viewed, approximate region, device type). See our Cookie Policy for detail and how to opt out.

How we use information

To respond to your enquiries, fix errors you report, improve our content, and keep the site secure. We do not sell personal information.

Sharing

We share personal information only with service providers who help us operate the site (for example email and hosting), under confidentiality obligations, or where the law requires it. Outbound operator links are third parties with their own privacy policies.

Storage and security

We keep personal information only as long as needed and take reasonable steps to protect it. No online transmission is perfectly secure, but we use appropriate safeguards.

Your rights

Under the Privacy Act 2020 you can ask to access or correct the personal information we hold about you. Email editor@sabinhair.co.nz. If you're not satisfied with our response, you can contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner (privacy.org.nz).
