Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to all personal information collected by Keep It Cool Consulting Pty Ltd, including through our website forms (enquiries about training, consulting, benchmarking, and advisory services), event registrations, and online book sales for *Cold Logic*. We may collect your name, email, phone number, company, role, and postal address (for book delivery). For online purchases, we also collect order details. Payment details are processed securely by Stripe; we do not store your full credit-card information.

We use your information to respond to enquiries, provide proposals or service information, fulfil book orders, send receipts, arrange delivery (via Australia Post or couriers), and maintain accounting records. We share only necessary data with third parties such as Stripe (secure payment processing) and Australia Post (delivery). These providers operate under strict data protection standards.

We take reasonable steps to protect your information and retain it only as long as required for legal and business purposes. You may request access or correction of your information at [email protected]. Some service providers (e.g., Stripe or hosting) may store data overseas. We take reasonable steps to ensure comparable protection. Complaints may be made to us or the OAIC (oaic.gov.au).

We may update this policy from time to time; the latest version will always appear on our website.

Refund & Returns Policy (Book Sales)

This policy applies to purchases of our printed book, *Cold Logic*. It does not apply to consulting, training, or other services, which are governed by separate terms of engagement.

Under the Australian Consumer Law, you are entitled to a replacement or refund for major failures and compensation for reasonable loss or damage. You may also have the book repaired or replaced if it fails to meet acceptable quality standards.

Refunds or replacements are available if the book is damaged, misprinted, defective, not as described, or if the wrong item was supplied.

To request a refund or replacement, email [email protected] within 14 days of delivery, quoting your order number and including a brief description and photo of the issue if possible.

We do not provide refunds for change-of-mind purchases.

Terms of Sale (Book Purchases)

These Terms apply to the sale of products via our website, including *Cold Logic*. Our professional services are not sold online and are subject to separate written agreements with clients.

All prices are in Australian Dollars (AUD) and include 10% GST. Postage and handling are charged at a flat rate of $15 (GST inclusive). Pricing updates apply only to future orders.

Payments are processed securely by Stripe. We do not store card details. A GST-compliant tax invoice/receipt is emailed after payment confirmation.

Orders are typically dispatched within 3–5 business days. If delays occur, customers will be notified by email. Our total liability in connection with any order is limited to the amount paid. We may update these Terms periodically, with changes applying to future transactions.

Shipping Information (Book Sales)

Orders are shipped within 3–5 business days of payment from the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, via Australia Post or an equivalent courier service. Typical delivery times: 3–5 business days within QLD/NSW; 5–10 business days for other Australian states and territories.

Postage and handling are charged at a flat rate of $15 (GST inclusive). Tracking details are provided where available. If your order has not arrived within 10 business days of dispatch, contact [email protected] so we can investigate. If items are lost or damaged, we will liaise with the carrier to arrange a replacement or refund per our Refund & Returns Policy.

At present, *Cold Logic* is distributed within Australia. International orders may be considered upon request via email.
