4. Shopify
Our online store operates using Shopify.
Shopify provides the ecommerce platform that allows us to display products, process orders and operate our online store.
When you use our store or make a purchase, information may be processed by Shopify in accordance with its applicable privacy and data-handling practices.
5. Digital Product Delivery
We use Filemonk to deliver purchased digital products.
Information required to fulfil your digital order — such as your email address, order information and purchased product — may be provided to Filemonk so your download can be delivered and managed.
Filemonk states that it processes merchant customer data on behalf of the merchant to provide its digital-delivery services.
6. Payment Processing
Payments may be processed by Shopify and/or other payment providers available through our checkout.
Payment providers may collect information required to authorise and process your transaction, including payment and fraud-prevention information.
Their handling of your information is also subject to their applicable privacy policies and terms.
7. Marketing Communications
If you choose to subscribe to marketing communications, we may use your email address to send information about Digital Guide Xpert products, new releases, promotions or other relevant updates.
You can unsubscribe from marketing emails using the unsubscribe option contained in the communication.
Transactional emails — such as order confirmations and digital download information — are separate from marketing communications and may still be sent when necessary to fulfil your purchase.
8. Cookies and Website Technologies
Our website and service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, understand website usage, improve performance, support security and provide relevant functionality.
Your browser may allow you to control or disable certain cookies. Disabling some cookies may affect how parts of the website operate.

- Ecommerce and website hosting.
- Payment processing.
- Digital product delivery.
- Email and communications.

We may also disclose information where required or authorised by law.
We do not sell customer personal information as part of our ordinary business operations.
10. Overseas Processing
Some of the technology and service providers used by Digital Guide Xpert may operate or store information outside Australia.
As a result, personal information may be processed or stored in other countries as part of providing our website, payment, digital-delivery or other services.
11. Security
We take reasonable steps appropriate to our business to protect personal information against loss, misuse, interference and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Information that is no longer reasonably required may be deleted, destroyed or de-identified where appropriate.

We may need to verify your identity before responding to certain requests.
14. Children's Privacy
Digital Guide Xpert products and services are intended for purchase by adults unless expressly stated otherwise.
We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information directly from children where it is not appropriate or necessary to provide our services.
15. Australian Privacy
Digital Guide Xpert is based in Australia.
The Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and Australian Privacy Principles apply to businesses in certain circumstances. Some Australian small businesses with annual turnover of $3 million or less may be exempt unless an exception applies. Regardless of whether Digital Guide Xpert is required to comply with every provision of the Privacy Act at a particular time, we aim to handle customer information responsibly and transparently.
Nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to limit any privacy rights available to you under applicable Australian law.
16. Privacy Enquiries and Complaints
If you have a question, concern or complaint regarding your personal information or this Privacy Policy, please contact us.
We will make reasonable efforts to investigate and respond to legitimate privacy concerns.
