Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how zafino.com.au (the “Site” or “we”) collects, uses, and discloses your Personal Information when you visit or make a purchase from the Site.


Terms of Service

By consenting to Zafino’s SMS marketing at checkout or via our subscription tools, you agree to receive recurring text notifications (for your order, including abandoned checkout reminders), text marketing offers, and transactional texts such as review requests. Message frequency varies. Consent is not a condition of purchase.

If you wish to unsubscribe, reply STOP to any message or use the unsubscribe link provided. Standard message and data rates may apply.

For assistance, text HELP or contact us at hello@zafino.com.au.

We may modify any telephone number or short code used to operate the service at any time. You will be notified of such changes. Please note that any messages sent to an outdated number or short code may not be received.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Zafino is not liable for failed, delayed, or misdirected delivery of information sent through the service, or for any errors in such information.


Privacy Policy for SMS Collection

We value your privacy and the information you consent to share in relation to our SMS marketing service.
We use this information to send you text notifications (for your order, including abandoned checkout reminders), text marketing offers, and transactional texts such as requests for reviews.

Opt-in data and consent for text messaging will not be shared with any third parties, except for our messaging partners, and only for the purpose of enabling and operating our text messaging program.
