1. Data We Collect

  • Order data. Name, billing and shipping address, email address, phone number, and order contents. Provided by you at checkout.
  • Payment data. Handled by Shopify Payments and PayPal. We never store or see your full card number.
  • Account data. If you create an account, your login credentials and order history.
  • Usage data. IP address, browser type, pages visited, and time on site, collected through cookies and analytics.
  • Correspondence. Emails you send us and our replies.

2. Why We Collect It

  • To process, fulfil, and deliver your order
  • To answer customer service enquiries
  • To send transactional emails such as order and dispatch confirmations
  • To send marketing emails, but only if you have opted in
  • To improve the site using aggregated, anonymised analytics
  • To meet legal and tax obligations

3. Who We Share It With

We do not sell your personal data. It is shared only where necessary to run the business:

  • Shopify Inc. Ecommerce platform and hosting. Order and account data is stored on Shopify servers. See Shopify's privacy policy.
  • Shopify Payments and PayPal. Payment processing. Neither passes full card details to us.
  • Google LLC. Google Analytics 4 collects anonymised usage data. See Google's privacy policy or opt out using the Google Analytics opt-out tool.
  • Shopify Email. If you opted into marketing, your name and email address are held there and used only for our own communications.
  • Fulfilment and shipping partners. Your name and delivery address are passed to our fulfilment operation and to the carrier so the parcel can be addressed and delivered. Orders are dispatched from Thailand, so your delivery details are processed there as well as in Australia.

Every provider is required to handle your data in line with applicable privacy law.

4. Cookies

The site uses cookies to function, to remember your cart, and to collect anonymised analytics. Essential cookies are required for checkout to work. Analytics cookies can be declined through your browser settings or the Google opt-out tool above.

Disabling essential cookies may prevent you from completing a purchase.

5. How Long We Keep It

Order records are retained for a minimum of seven years to meet Australian tax and accounting obligations. Marketing data is retained until you unsubscribe. You may request deletion of your personal data at any time, subject to those legal retention requirements.

6. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Have inaccurate data corrected
  • Have your data deleted, subject to legal retention requirements
  • Object to or restrict certain processing
  • Receive your data in a portable, machine-readable format
  • Withdraw consent for marketing at any time

These rights arise under the Australian Privacy Act 1988, the UK and EU General Data Protection Regulation, and the California Consumer Privacy Act where applicable. To exercise any of them, email orders@erectimus.com. We respond within 30 days.

7. International Transfers

We are based in Australia and dispatch from Thailand. Depending on the service involved, your data may be stored or processed in Australia, Thailand, Canada, or the United States by our providers. All transfers are handled in line with applicable data protection law.

8. Security

All data sent to and from erectimus.com is encrypted using SSL and TLS. Payment data is handled exclusively by PCI-DSS compliant processors. We take reasonable steps to protect your data, though no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.

9. Discretion

Orders ship in plain, unlabelled packaging and your bank statement shows a discreet billing descriptor. Enquiries are handled confidentially and your details are never passed to a third party for marketing purposes.

10. Children

This site is for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal data, email orders@erectimus.com and we will delete it.
