Turbosmart Privacy Policy Document

Turbosmart Pty Ltd, Turbosmart UK Ltd and Turbosmart USA LLC and their related and associated corporate bodies (“us, we, our”) maintain a policy of strict confidence concerning your (“you, your”) personal information (“Privacy Policy”).

We may attach a “cookie” to your computer’s memory when you visit the Site. This “cookie” is a small text file that assists us in storing session information when you are logged into the Site and facilitates seamless access between our different services.

If you choose to do so, you should be able to configure your computer so that it disables “cookies” or does not accept them. However, this may impact the functionality of the Site.

We use cookies to track what you have in your shopping cart and remember you when you return to our site. If you choose to disable cookies on your computer, it will mean that your shopping experience on our website will be limited to browsing and researching; you won't be able to add products to your cart and buy them.

Some cookies are deleted when you close down your browser. These are known as session cookies. Others remain on your device until they expire, or you delete them from your cache. These are persistent cookies and enable us to remember things about you as a returning visitor.

Collecting personal information

The personal information you provide is collected to enable us to sell our products, enhance your use of the Site, improve the Site, and keep you informed of our products and services that might be relevant to you.

  • when you otherwise elect to provide personal information to us;
  • When we run competitions through our social media channels; or
  • from third parties such as the dealerships, we have engaged in selling our products.

If someone other than you provides us with personal information about you that we did not ask for, we will notify you as soon as practicable that we have received this personal information. This notice will be given unless to do so would breach an obligation of confidence. If we could not have collected this personal information, we will lawfully de-identify or destroy that personal information.
