Welcome to the Eagle Creek website, eaglecreek.com.au (“Website” or “Site”). This Privacy Policy ("Policy") sets out how Eagle Creek LLC. ("we", "us", "our"), collect, use, process and disclose information about you when you visit and/or order our products through our website. We believe the privacy and security of your information and data (“Personal Information”) is very important. We encourage you to read this Policy carefully.
Any updates or modifications to this Policy will be posted to our website on this page. By using or accessing the Website, you signify that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by this Policy.
What is Personal Information?
For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” is information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual or household. We may, and we may authorise third parties to create aggregate records from Personal Information by excluding information that makes the information capable of identifying an individual or household (“Aggregate Information”). The Privacy Policy does not restrict or limit our collection and use of such Aggregate Information, and we reserve the right to share such Aggregate Information with third parties without restriction.
What information do we collect?
Information You Give Us. We receive and store any Personal Information you post on or provide through the Site, including when you request information from us. By accessing or using our Site, you understand it is your choice to provide us with this information. You can choose not to provide such Personal Information, in which case you may not be able to access or use portions of our Site or services such as purchasing merchandise, etc.
Purchases. If you purchase products via the Site, the transaction may be handled by our service providers or third-party vendor(s) responsible for processing your payment (“Payment Processor”). These entities have their own privacy policies (Shopify, AfterPay and/or PayPal), and those terms will apply to you. Please review them at the links provided during payment processing.
Credit Card Information. We require payment or credit card information for the Payment Processor to process purchases. This includes your name, payment or credit card number, expiration date, billing address, and authentication codes or related information to authorise the charge and complete the transaction.
Automatically-Collected Information. We automatically receive and store certain information when you visit the Site. This automatically-collected information may include the name of the domain and host from which you access the internet, the IP address of the computer you are using, the browser and operating system you are using, the date and time you access the Site, any search terms you used to find the Site, device identifiers and network information, and your actions in connection with the Site, among others. Note that this information will only be treated as Personal Information if we combine or link it to any identifying information or if otherwise required by law. Otherwise, this information constitutes Aggregate Information.
Cookies. We automatically receive and store certain information when you visit the Site through cookies. Cookies are strings of text that a website may store on your computer. We use cookies for authentication, to remember your settings, to keep track of your activity during a site visit, to conduct usability tests, to improve Site performance, and to implement certain features of the Site.
The Site creates session cookies for each visit to facilitate your visit. The session cookie expires at the end of the session. We may also use persistent cookies, which remain on your device longer. Cookies do not corrupt or damage your computer or computer files.
We may use analytics and customisation cookies, including third-party cookies, to gather information on how our Site is used by our users and to measure how popular our marketing campaigns are. We use the data we get to help customise our Site and products for you and make the content you see as relevant as possible. We may also use the data we collect to help identify and prevent fraud and to track visits from our affiliates or partners.
We may use social networking cookies to allow visitors to share our pages and content through third-party social networking websites.
We may use targeting/advertising cookies to help us customise and regulate (e.g., by capping the frequency of) the advertisements you receive, provide you with tailored offers, and measure the effectiveness of our advertising. For instance, if we target an ad campaign through an online advertising network, we might use cookies on our Site to estimate how many viewers of the ad later visited our Site – and, therefore, how effective the ad campaign was. Or, we might “retarget” visitors to our Site by providing them offers (whether through online display media, email or direct mail) similar to those they viewed or expressed interest in during their Site visits.

We may transfer your Personal Information from Australia to other countries or regions in connection with the storage and processing of data, fulfilling your requests, and operating our business. By providing any information to Eagle Creek, you consent to such transfer, storage, and processing.
Marketing emails. We may use third-party service providers to send our marketing emails. The emails may contain e-tags, which permit you to share the mail via social sites to which you subscribe. In addition, when you click on a link to the Site included in the email, a persistent cookie is placed on your computer. This cookie is used to measure the effectiveness of our email marketing efforts, better understand how our users navigate through the Site and enhance user experience. To that end, we collect a variety of information about how you interact with our marketing efforts, including how many times the email is opened and/or clicked, the browser type used, the operating system, the user email program, etc. The cookie set by our service providers may remain on your hard drive 30 days after the last time you clicked on the coded link in the email or until you delete it.
In addition, the third parties that assist with our marketing emails may use pixel tags that help us send the email in a format you can read to let us know which emails you act upon and target the content of future emails better. We also use these tags to track the aggregate number of emails read and whether any of the links in the email were accessed.
Advertisements. We may use third-party service providers to serve and host our advertisements. You may receive our ads on these third-party sites. These third parties may use cookies to track the times our site is accessed and whether the site was accessed from the advertisement.
