WHO WE ARE
De’Longhi Group considers the protection of personal information as very important and is committed to protecting the privacy of our customers.
The collection and use of personal information by DeLonghi (Australia) Pty Ltd (referred to in this Privacy Policy as the "Company", "we" or "us") is governed by the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
This Privacy Policy provides you with information in relation to personal information collected through our website, apps, web chat, competition entries and during phone calls.
We collect the following categories of personal information:
We collect, hold and use your personal information:
If you provide personal information on behalf of someone else, you:
Please help us to keep your personal information up-to-date by informing us of any changes. Any change in address should be promptly communicated to De’Longhi in order to avoid problems in the use of our services.
We collect, hold, use and disclose your personal information to:
You may register on our website using our Social Media Log-In function. Using this function, you will not have to enter the personal information usually necessary for registration (such as contact details), which will instead be collected from the social network through which you carry out your registration.
Please note that, if you use our Social Media Log-In function, we may collect personal information that is not only those related to your social media account but also any other personal information that could be made visible according to the preferences you have set or according to the privacy policy on that social network. Please read the privacy policy of the relevant social media network for further information on these preferences and how your personal information is treated by that social media network.
Please note that we have a Single Sign-On system, under which the registration made on our site will be valid for all sites managed by the De’Longhi Group, including the "De'Longhi","Braun" and "Kenwood" brands (found at www.delonghi.com, www.braunhousehold.com, and www.kenwoodworld.com).
It is not necessary to provide your personal information again if you register with one of our other brand sites. However, any marketing and marketing profiling which we carry out (for example on the site www.kenwoodworld.com/it) will be used only for advertising material related to the specific brands you have registered for.
We use a wide range of security measures to improve protection and maintain the security, integrity and accessibility of your personal information.
All of your personal information is stored on our secure servers (or on secure paper copies) or on those of our suppliers or commercial partners, and may be accessed and used based on our information security standards and our policies (or the equivalent standards for our suppliers or commercial partners).
The security measures we have adopted include:
Where we have provided you with (or you have chosen) a password to allow you to access our website, application or services, you are responsible for keeping this password secret and for complying with any other security procedure we inform you of. Please do not share your password with anyone.
We will keep your personal information for the length of time necessary to achieve the purposes for which it was collected or for any other related and lawful purpose. Therefore, if your personal information is processed for two different purposes, we will keep that personal information until the lengthier purpose is achieved. We will stop using personal information where the retention period for that personal information has expired.
When your personal information is no longer required, or when there is no longer any lawful reason for keeping it (or the retention period has expired) it will be irreversibly anonymized (and in such a way may be stored) or securely destroyed.
Your personal information may be accessed by our authorised employees and by external suppliers who support us in providing services.
Your personal information may also be disclosed to other De’Longhi Group companies (who may be based in a country other than Australia[, such as Italy]) for the purposes of the performance of their activities and in connection with the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.
If you have any questions regarding our use of your personal information, or would like to make a request or complaint in relation to the handling of your personal information, please contact us:
