Who we are
NIIC (the “Conference”) is organised and operated by Thinkedu Pty Ltd (“we”, “us”, “our”). This policy explains how we collect, use and safeguard personal information for NIIC events and related services.
What we collect
- Booking details: billing name, email, phone, company, ABN (optional).
- Attendee details: first name, surname, email, phone, company/ABN (optional), dinner selection, and any dietary requirements you supply.
- Payment information: processed securely by Stripe. We do not store full card numbers. We receive payment confirmations, amounts and non-sensitive payment metadata.
- Website usage: standard logs, approximate location, device/browser data, cookies necessary for site operation and analytics (if enabled).
How we use your information
- Process bookings, take payment, issue receipts and tickets.
- Communicate event logistics, updates, and support.
- Manage entry, seating and catering (including dinner and dietary needs).
- Handle refunds, transfers, compliance and fraud prevention.
- Send post-event follow-ups, materials and future NIIC announcements (you can opt out at any time).
Legal bases & retention
We process data to perform a contract (your booking), for legitimate interests (event operations, security, preventing fraud), and where required by law. We retain records for as long as needed for the purposes above, and to meet tax, accounting and regulatory requirements.
Sharing your information
- Service providers: payment processing (Stripe), email and hosting providers, event venue and catering partners (only what they need).
- Legal/compliance: if required by law or to protect rights, safety or security.
International transfers
Some providers may process data outside Australia. Where applicable, we use providers with appropriate safeguards and contracts.
Security
We implement administrative, technical and physical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information. Online payments are handled by Stripe; we never store full card numbers on our servers.
Your choices
- Access, correction and deletion requests.
- Marketing opt-out links in emails or by contacting us.
- Cookie controls at browser level (note some features may rely on required cookies).
Third-party payments (Stripe)
When you pay, your card details are processed by Stripe. Stripe acts as a separate controller/processor for payment data. Refer to Stripe’s privacy policy for details. We receive payment confirmations and related metadata to fulfil your order.
