Privacy policy – Nzsolebookie
An information site on betting with TAB NZ needs little personal information, and Nzsolebookie collects only that. The governing law is the Privacy Act 2020 and its information privacy principles (section 22).
The responsible agency
Responsibility for personal information gathered through Nzsolebookie lies with the body that runs it. Name, address and e-mail are available at solebookienz.com, which is also the route for any question about personal information.
Information collected
On every page request the server writes a log entry: IP address, date and time, the address asked for, the volume of data sent, the referring page and the browser type. Logs serve security and the spotting of abuse; after 90 days they are deleted or cut down so that they no longer identify anyone. A person writing to the editors supplies a name, e-mail address and message text, used solely to reply. There are no reader accounts, deposits or bets, so payment details and identity documents are not collected.
Purposes and principles
Collection serves lawful purposes tied to the site: keeping it running and secure, replying to messages and, after a choice in the cookie banner, measuring the audience (IPP 1). People are told what is collected and why (IPP 3), and use stays within those purposes (IPP 10). No automated decisions and no profiling take place.
Providers and disclosure abroad
Nothing is sold. Information passes to providers that host the site, deliver its content and handle e-mail, and to public authorities when the law demands. A provider may store information outside New Zealand; disclosure abroad happens only if the receiver is bound by comparable safeguards or the person has been told and agrees, as IPP 12 requires.
Security and retention
Reasonable safeguards protect against loss and misuse (IPP 5). Retention follows purpose (IPP 9): server logs at most 90 days, correspondence until the matter closes plus the time needed for possible claims. A notifiable privacy breach, one that has caused or is likely to cause serious harm, is reported to the Privacy Commissioner and to those affected.
Access and correction
Each person may ask for access to the information held about them (IPP 6) and for correction (IPP 7). An answer comes as soon as reasonably practicable and no later than 20 working days after receipt (section 40).
Complaints
A person who believes their privacy has been breached may complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner.
