Privacy Notice
This Privacy Notice applies to all personal information collected by KiwiTicket about individuals (other than its own staff), whether or not it is collected via this website (app.kiwiticket.co.nz). KiwiTicket is committed to complying with the Privacy Act 2020 in respect of all personal information it holds.
This Privacy Notice sets out how and why KiwiTicket collects, uses and discloses personal information. It categorises the personal information collected by KiwiTicket, and the purpose it is used for, across the different types of people that it collects personal information about.
Customers
Registering as a customer: We collect the bare minimum of personal information from you: name and email address. We use this to generate a unique identifier to identify you in our systems from other customers and administer your account.
Purchasing and transacting event tickets: If you purchase event tickets, then we will also collect and in addition to the uses we make we will use of your personal information to:
-
identify you as ticket holder on those tickets;
-
obtain payment verification via our third party payment provider Stripe (see below);
-
share with the relevant event promoters;
-
communicate with you regarding your ticket purchase;
-
do anything else required to transact your tickets; and
-
our general business purposes e.g analysis (see ‘Website users’ below) and product improvement.
Our specialist third party payment provider Stripe retains all your payment details and what payment method you used. We don’t retain any of this information and as a user of Stripe we can only see the last 4 digits of your payment details and what payment method you used. Stripe is certified as PCI DSS compliant (Level 1) and encrypts payment details at rest. More details about Stripe’s security are here.
Event promoters will use your personal details for communication and possibly follow-up promotional content. You should look at the details of their privacy policy to make sure you understand and are comfortable with what they use your personal information for, before purchasing their tickets on KiwiTicket.
Customer service and complaints: Another way KiwiTicket collects personal information is because you enquire of, or complain to, KiwiTicket. KiwiTicket will only use the personal information provided to provide you with advice and assistance sought, to share with the promoter and to assist with resolving any complaints.
