Privacy Policy

1. Overview

Boaz Developments Limited ("we", "us", or "our") is a building and construction company based in Langs Beach, servicing the northern coastal regions of New Zealand including Mangawhai and surrounding areas. We are committed to protecting the privacy of anyone who visits our website or contacts us regarding our services.

This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and your rights in relation to it. It is governed by the Privacy Act 2020 (New Zealand).

2. Information We Collect

We may collect personal information when you:

• Submit an enquiry through our website contact form
• Call or email us directly
• Engage us to carry out building or construction work

The personal information we collect may include:

• Your name
• Contact details (phone number, email address, postal address)
• Details about your building project or enquiry
• Any other information you choose to provide to us

We also automatically collect certain technical information when you visit our website, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited. This information is collected via cookies and web analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) and is generally anonymous.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the personal information we collect to:

• Respond to your enquiries and communicate with you about our services
• Provide building and construction services you have requested
• Keep records of our work and client relationships
• Improve our website and the services we offer
• Meet any legal or regulatory obligations

We will not use your personal information for any purpose not described in this policy without first obtaining your consent.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — and similar tracking technologies. These fall into the following categories:

Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous, aggregated data about how visitors use our website, including pages visited, time spent on site, and general location. This helps us understand and improve our website. No attempt is made to identify individual visitors through this data.

Advertising and Tracking Pixels

We may use advertising pixels and tracking technologies from third-party platforms including Meta (Facebook/Instagram) and Google Ads. These pixels are small pieces of code that allow those platforms to:

• Recognise when you have visited our website
• Show you targeted advertisements for our services on other websites and platforms (retargeting)
• Build anonymised audience profiles to help us reach people with similar interests
• Measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns

When these pixels are active, data about your visit — such as pages viewed and actions taken — may be shared with Meta Platforms Inc. and/or Google LLC, and processed by them in accordance with their own privacy policies.

Your Cookie Choices

You can manage or disable cookies at any time through your browser settings. You can also opt out of specific tracking by:

• Opting out of Google Analytics tracking at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
• Managing your Meta ad preferences at facebook.com/ads/preferences
• Using your browser's private/incognito mode to limit cookie tracking

Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect how some parts of the website function, and opting out of advertising cookies does not mean you will no longer see our ads — it means they will no longer be tailored to your browsing behaviour.

5. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share your information only in the following limited circumstances:

• With subcontractors or tradespeople where necessary to carry out work you have engaged us to perform
• With our service providers (such as web hosting or analytics providers) who assist us in operating our website and business, and who are required to keep your information confidential
• Where required by law, regulation, or a valid legal request
• To protect the rights, property, or safety of Boaz Developments, our clients, or others

6. Storage and Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from loss, misuse, unauthorised access, or disclosure. Your information may be stored electronically or in physical records at our premises. Some data (such as website analytics) may be processed on servers located outside New Zealand; where this is the case, we take reasonable steps to ensure it is handled in accordance with this policy.

We retain your personal information only for as long as it is needed for the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law.

7. Your Rights

Under the Privacy Act 2020, you have the right to access personal information we hold about you and to request a correction if it is inaccurate or out of date. To make such a request, please contact us using the details below.

If you have a concern about how we have handled your personal information, you may also contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner at www.privacy.org.nz.
