Last updated: 17 October 2025

We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This policy explains what we collect on this website, how we use it, and your choices. We aim to comply with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). Visitors from the EU/UK also have rights under the GDPR/UK GDPR.

Comments

Comments are currently enabled on this site.

When visitors leave comments we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. An anonymised string created from your email address (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Contact forms & enquiries

If you contact us via a form or email, we collect your name, email address and message so we can respond. We keep enquiry submissions for up to 12 months for customer service purposes and do not use the information for marketing without your consent.

We use cookies only as needed for site functionality and to understand basic site performance. Cookies may also be set by third parties we embed or link to (e.g., eBay).

  • If you leave a comment (when enabled), you may opt-in to saving your name, email and website in cookies for your convenience. These last for one year.

Affiliate & marketplace cookies: When you click a product link to eBay, eBay and the eBay Partner Network (EPN) may place cookies or use similar technologies to track referrals and measure commissions. These cookies are controlled by eBay/EPN and governed by their privacy policies.

You can control cookies via your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may impact site functionality.

Embedded content from other websites

Pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., eBay listing widgets, images, videos). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you visited those sites directly. Those sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with embedded content.

Affiliate disclosure (privacy-related)

This site uses eBay Partner Network affiliate links. If you click one of these links and make a purchase on eBay, we may earn a commission. For this purpose, eBay/EPN may process technical data such as your IP address, device/browser information, and referral details. See eBay’s and EPN’s privacy notices for details on their data handling.

eCommerce & payments

We do not process payments on this website. All purchases are completed on eBay, where eBay’s terms and privacy policy apply. We do not receive your payment details. We may receive order-related messages via eBay messaging; those are processed within eBay’s platform.

Analytics

If applicable, add details here e.g., “We use Google Analytics IP anonymization… data retained for 14 months.” If not using analytics, delete this section or add: We do not use third-party analytics at this time.

Who we share your data with

We don’t sell or rent your personal information. We share data only as needed to operate this site and respond to you:

  • Service providers/hosting: Our website host and technical providers may process data on our behalf under confidentiality obligations.
  • Spam detection (if comments enabled): Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
  • Marketplace/affiliates: When you interact with embedded eBay content or click affiliate links, data may be shared with eBay and eBay Partner Network as described above.

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email.

How long we retain your data

  • Comments (if enabled): Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognise and approve follow-ups automatically.
  • User accounts: We do not offer public user accounts on this site. Administrator/editor accounts are managed internally.
  • Contact enquiries: Stored for up to 12 months unless we need to keep them longer for legal or operational reasons.
  • Technical logs: Our hosting provider may retain server logs (IP address, user-agent, pages visited) for security and maintenance, typically for up to 90 days.

What rights you have over your data

If you have left comments or submitted a contact form, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you and request that we erase it, subject to any data we must keep for administrative, legal or security purposes.

EU/UK visitors have GDPR rights, including access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection and data portability. To exercise rights, contact us at admin@lumipix.net.

Where your data is sent

  • Visitor comments (if enabled) may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
  • When you click to eBay, your browser communicates directly with eBay/EPN and other eBay service providers; your data may be processed in countries outside Australia according to their policies.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.

Children’s privacy

Our site and listings are intended for general audiences and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will reflect the most recent changes.
