A&M Ventures Limited (New Zealand company 5874158) t/a The Toy Wagon (“The Toy Wagon”, “we,” “us,” or “our”) has created this privacy policy (this “Privacy Policy”) to comply with our legal obligations and because we know that you care about how information you provide to us is used and shared.

If you do not want us to place a cookie on your hard drive, you may be able to turn that feature off on your computer or mobile device. Please consult your Internet browser’s documentation for information on how to do this and how to delete persistent cookies. However, if you decide not to accept cookies from us, the Platform may not function properly.

From You
Information Collected by or Through Third-Party Advertising Companies
We may share Other Information about your activity on the Platform with third parties for the purpose of tailoring, analysing, managing, reporting, and optimising the Service we provide and for any advertising you see on the Platform and elsewhere. These third parties may use cookies, pixel tags (also called web beacons or clear gifs), and/or other technologies to collect such Other Information for such purposes. Pixel tags enable us, and these third-party advertisers, to recognise a browser’s cookie when a browser visits the site on which the pixel tag is located in order to learn which advertisement brings a user to a given site. For the sake of clarity, in connection with the activities described in this section, we do not share any of your Personal Information, as defined above.
Accessing and Modifying Personal Information and Communication Preferences
If you have registered for the Service via the Platform, you may access, review, and make changes to your Personal Information, Payment Information, and certain Other Information by following the instructions found on the Platform. In addition, you may manage your receipt of non-transactional communications by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link located on the bottom of any The Toy Wagon email. Customers cannot opt out of receiving transactional e-mails related to their account or their Product orders. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to process such requests in a timely manner. You should be aware, however, that it is not always possible to completely remove or modify information in our databases.
How We Use and Share the Information
We use the Personal Information, the Order Information, the Payment Information, the Geolocational Information, and the Other Information (collectively, the “Information”) to provide our Services; to process Product orders; to communicate with Suppliers; to maintain and improve our Platform and Services to you; to solicit your feedback; and to inform you about the Products and services and those of our third-party marketing partners.
We may also use and/or share Information as described below:
- The Toy Wagon may share the Information with third parties as required to process your Product orders and provide support to you.
- In order to provide our Services to you, we may share the Information (excluding the Payment Information) with the applicable Customer, and we may promote the Products and services by email or other electronic means with you.
- In addition, we may share the Information (excluding the Payment Information), with the applicable Customer so we can offer you special products, services, discounts, and other items.
- We may, from time to time, share and/or license Personal Information, Order information, Geolocational Information, and/or Other Information to other companies that we reasonably and in good faith believe may be of interest to you. These companies may provide you information about the products and services they or their relevant partners offer. To the extent required by law, you will be given the opportunity to opt-out of such sharing.
- With your permission, third-party applications or services may access your Personal Information. We use standard OAuth (open authorisation) to enable you to give permission to share your Personal Information with other websites and services (e.g., when you agree to a pop-up requesting you to allow another application to access your account information). We also use OAuth to allow us to share information about you that is stored by us without sharing your security credentials.
- We may employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples may include providing technical assistance, Product order fulfillment, and customer service. These other companies will have access to the Information only as necessary to perform their functions and to the extent permitted by law.
- In an ongoing effort to better understand our Platform, Services, Visitors, Customers, and other products and services, we may analyse the Order Information, and Other Information in aggregate form, in order to operate, maintain, manage, and improve the Platform and/or the Products and services. This aggregate information does not identify you personally. We may share this aggregate data with our affiliates, agents, and business partners. We may also disclose aggregated user statistics in order to describe the Products and services to current and prospective business partners and to other third parties for other lawful purposes.
- We may share some or all of your Information with any of our parent companies, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or other companies under common control with us.
- As we develop our businesses, we might sell or buy businesses or assets. In the event of a corporate sale, merger, reorganisation, sale of assets, dissolution, or similar event, the Information may be part of the transferred assets, or may be disclosed to a third party for negotiation purposes.
- To the extent permitted by law, we may also disclose the Information: (i) when required by law, court order, or other government or law enforcement authority or regulatory agency; or (ii) whenever we believe that disclosing such Information is necessary or advisable, for example, to protect the rights, property, or safety of The Toy Wagon or others.
Information You Share
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily make your Personal Information available to third parties — for example on message boards or web logs; through email; or in comment or chat areas — that information may be seen, collected, heard, and/or used by others besides us. We cannot be responsible for any unauthorised third-party use of such information.
How We Protect the Information
We take commercially reasonable steps to protect the Information from loss, misuse, and unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Please understand, however, that no security system is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee the security of our databases or the databases of the third parties with which we may share such Information, nor can we guarantee that the Information you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted over the Internet. In particular, e-mail sent to us may not be secure, and you should therefore take special care in deciding what information you send to us via e-mail.
