Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 2026
HKD Elevators Pty Ltd (“we”, “our”, “us”) is committed to protecting the privacy of your personal information. This policy explains how we collect, use, store, and disclose personal information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).
1. Information We Collect
We may collect the following types of personal information: your name, email address, phone number, and postal address; details about your property such as address, floor plan dimensions, and building type; your role or occupation (e.g. homeowner, builder, architect, designer); records of communications between you and our team; details related to a quote, purchase, installation, or service request; and payment information processed through our secure third-party payment providers.
We may also collect non-personal information through our website, including browser type, IP address, pages visited, and referring URLs, using cookies and similar technologies.
2. How We Collect Information
We collect personal information directly from you when you submit an enquiry form on our website, contact us by phone, email, or in person at our showroom, request a quote or book a consultation, enter into a contract for the supply or installation of a home lift, or communicate with us regarding maintenance or warranty matters.
We may also collect information from third parties such as builders, architects, or designers acting on your behalf, but only where you have authorised them to share your details with us.
3. Why We Collect Information
We use your personal information to respond to your enquiries and provide quotes; design, manufacture, deliver, and install your home lift; coordinate with builders, architects, or other parties involved in your project; schedule and carry out maintenance, repairs, and warranty services; send you important updates about your installation or service appointments; improve our products, services, and website experience; and comply with our legal and regulatory obligations.
We will not use your personal information for direct marketing unless you have given us your consent. You may opt out of marketing communications at any time by contacting us or using the unsubscribe link in our emails.
4. How We Store and Protect Information
We store personal information in secure digital systems with access restricted to authorised personnel only. We take reasonable steps to protect your information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure. These measures include encrypted data transmission on our website (SSL/TLS), password-protected systems with role-based access controls, and secure physical storage for any paper-based records at our Clayton office.
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it.
5. Disclosure of Information
We may share your personal information with our manufacturing partners (Songshang and XSL) solely for the purpose of fulfilling your custom lift order; our installation and maintenance subcontractors who are bound by confidentiality obligations; professional advisors including accountants and legal counsel; government or regulatory bodies where required by law; and third-party service providers who assist with our website hosting, email systems, or payment processing.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing purposes.
Some of our manufacturing partners are located in China. Where personal information is disclosed overseas, we take reasonable steps to ensure the recipient handles it in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles.
