Privacy Policy
At 100 Family Traditions, we care about your privacy as much as we care about families. This policy explains what personal information we collect, why, and what we do with it. By using our website 100familytraditions.com or buying from us, you agree to this policy.
We are 100 Family Traditions, based in New Zealand. We are the people responsible for the personal information described here.
What we collect
We only collect what we need to run our business and serve you well:
- When you buy something: your name, email address, billing details, and the details of your order. Your payment card details are handled directly by our payment provider; we do not see or store your full card number.
- When you join our email list or download our free guide: your name (if given) and your email address.
- When you contact us: your email address and whatever you choose to tell us.
- When you browse the site: basic technical and usage information such as your device type, browser, pages visited, and how you found us, collected through cookies and analytics tools.
Why we collect it
We use your information to:
- Deliver the products you buy and send your download links.
- Provide customer support and respond to your messages.
- Send you our free guide and, if you have opted in, our emails about traditions, new products, and offers.
- Understand how the site is used so we can improve it.
- Meet our legal and accounting obligations.
We will only ever email you marketing if you have opted in, and every email includes an unsubscribe link so you can stop at any time.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with the trusted services that help us operate, and only as far as needed. These typically include:
- Our payment provider (to process your payment securely).
- Our email and marketing platform (to send your downloads and emails).
- Our website hosting and e-commerce tools (to run the site and store orders).
- Our analytics providers (to understand site usage).
Some of these providers may store data on servers outside New Zealand. Where that happens, we take reasonable steps to ensure your information is handled with appropriate care and protection.
We may also disclose information if the law requires it.
Cookies and analytics
Our site uses cookies and similar technologies to make the site work, remember your cart, and measure how the site is performing. We may use tools such as Google Analytics and, if running ads, advertising pixels, to understand traffic and improve our marketing. You can control or block cookies through your browser settings, though some parts of the site may not work as well if you do.
How long we keep it
We keep your information only as long as we need it: to deliver your products, support you, meet our legal and tax obligations, and (if you have opted in) to keep emailing you until you unsubscribe. When we no longer need it, we take reasonable steps to delete or de-identify it.
Keeping it safe
We take reasonable steps to protect your information from loss, misuse, and unauthorised access. No method of storage or transmission is ever completely secure, but we work to keep your data safe and to use reputable providers who do the same.
Your rights
Under the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020, you have the right to:
- Ask what personal information we hold about you, and
- Ask us to correct it if it is wrong.
To do either, just email us at hello@100familytraditions.com and we will help. You can also unsubscribe from our emails at any time using the link in any email.
Children
Our products are made for families, but they are bought and used by adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will remove it.
Visitors from the European Union and the United Kingdom
100 Family Traditions is based in New Zealand and operates primarily under the Privacy Act 2020. If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or UK GDPR may also apply to our handling of your personal information, and this section sets out your rights under those laws.
Why we process your information. We rely on your consent when you subscribe to our newsletter or accept non-essential cookies, and you may withdraw that consent at any time. We rely on the performance of a contract when you purchase a product from us, and on our legitimate interests in operating and improving the site for basic analytics and site security.
Your rights. Subject to certain conditions, you have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you, and request a copy of it
- Correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete
- Delete your personal information ("the right to erasure")
- Restrict how we process your information in certain circumstances
- Object to processing based on our legitimate interests, and to object to direct marketing at any time
- Portability — receive your information in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format
- Withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal
To exercise any of these rights, email us at hello@100familytraditions.com. We will respond within one month. You can also unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the link at the bottom of every email, without needing to contact us.
International transfers. Your information is stored and processed in New Zealand and by our service providers, which may be located outside the EEA or UK. New Zealand has been recognised by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of data protection, meaning transfers from the EEA to New Zealand may take place without additional safeguards.
Complaints. If you believe we have mishandled your personal information, we would like the chance to put it right, so please contact us first. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. In the UK, this is the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The version on this page is always the current one, and the "last updated" date shows when it last changed.

If you have any questions about your privacy or this policy, please email us at hello@100familytraditions.com
