Club Club App Privacy Policy
1. Introduction
1.1 At Club Club (ACN 681682324) (“we”, “us” or Club Club) , we value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This privacy policy outlines how we collect, use, and share your information when you use the Club Club app.
1.2 The Club Club app operates as a directory discount platform for nightclubs and other late-night venues. Through this app, users can access a full list of nightclubs in their area and see late-night events occurring every week. They can also claim discounts to events and venues by clicking on affiliate links, which will send users to the sites of our partnered venues and organizers.
1.3 As a small business, we are subject to the small business exemption and are excluded from the operation of the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Act) and we expressly have not opted in as an ‘organisation’ for the purposes of the Act in accordance with section 6EA. This means that we do not comply with the Australian privacy principles contained in the Act and you do not have any rights available under Australian law concerning the treatment of your personal information by Club Club.
1.4 If you do not want your personal information handled by a business that is exempt from the Act or if you otherwise do not agree with how we propose to collect, use and share your personal information, please cease using the Club Club app or contact us at the details below.
