Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Freshnova handles personal information in Australia. We describe what data we collect, how we use it, and the choices available to you. Our approach aligns with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and reflects our commitment to clarity and fairness in everyday operations.

Information we collect. We may collect details that you provide directly, such as name, email address, city, and preferences related to cafe and coffee topics. We also gather technical information through cookies and similar technologies, including device attributes, browser type, approximate location derived from IP, and pages viewed. These data help us operate the site, measure performance, and improve content relevance.

How we use information. We use collected data to deliver and maintain our website, respond to messages, personalize content, and produce aggregated insights about readership. Where you subscribe to updates, we may send editorial highlights, announcements about new city lists, and service messages. You can opt out of promotional emails using unsubscribe links in each message.

Cookies and analytics. Cookies support core functionality such as session continuity, preference storage, and performance measurement. Analytics tools help us understand which articles are most useful and which devices are commonly used, so we can refine layout and accessibility. You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Our cookie banner lets you choose whether to accept or decline optional categories, and we respect that choice for subsequent visits.

Sharing and disclosure. We may share limited data with service providers that support hosting, analytics, email delivery, and security. These partners are required to handle information under appropriate confidentiality and data protection obligations. We may also share information where required by applicable law, regulation, or valid legal process, or in connection with organizational changes such as a merger or acquisition.

Data storage and security. We apply reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to reduce risks associated with unauthorized access, alteration, or misuse. Despite these efforts, vulnerabilities can exist on the internet. We therefore encourage strong passwords, updated software, and cautious handling of personal details when using shared devices and networks.

Your choices and rights. Subject to Australian law, you may request access to the personal information we hold about you, seek correction of inaccuracies, or ask that we limit certain uses. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and may request additional information to verify identity and understand the scope of your request.

International transfers. Service providers or infrastructure may be located outside Australia. Where transfers occur, we take steps designed to ensure appropriate protection consistent with this Policy and applicable law. Contractual safeguards and robust security practices help support consistent handling standards.

Retention. We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described here or as required by law and legitimate business needs. When data are *** longer needed, we take steps to de-identify or securely delete them according to practical and legal requirements.

Children. Our content is intended for general audiences interested in cafes and coffee culture. If we become aware that we inadvertently hold personal information from a child in circumstances that call for consent or heightened protection, we will take appropriate steps in line with applicable law.

Links. Our website may reference third-party platforms such as social media accounts. Those services are governed by their own practices. We encourage reviewing their privacy materials before engaging with features or sharing details.

Updates to this Policy. We may revise this Policy to reflect operational or legal changes. When updates are made, the revised date will appear at the top of the page, and significant changes may be highlighted within the site for visibility.
