Last updated: 3 October 2026
Baldivis Community Support Inc. (ABN 51 177 411 578), known as Happy Pantry (“we”, “us”, “our”), respects your privacy. We handle personal information in line with the Australian Privacy Principles in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). This policy explains what we collect, why, and how you can access or correct it.
Information we collect
We only collect information we need to run our services. Depending on how you deal with us, this may include:
- Box delivery orders: your name, delivery address, suburb, postcode, phone number, email address, preferred delivery date and any delivery notes.
- Donations: your name, email address and donation amount. Card payments are processed by Stripe and PayPal payments by PayPal; we never see or store your full card details.
- Volunteering: the details you give us when you register, such as your name, contact details, availability and emergency contact.
- Enquiries: your name, email, phone number and message when you use our contact form or email us.
- Website use: basic technical information such as your browser type and pages visited, collected through cookies (see our Cookie Notice).
We do not ask for proof of hardship to use the pantry, and you can visit us without giving any personal information.
How we use your information
- to arrange and deliver food boxes, and to contact you about your delivery by email or SMS
- to process donations and send receipts
- to coordinate volunteers and keep our site safe
- to answer your enquiries
- to send updates or newsletters, only if you have asked to receive them (you can unsubscribe at any time)
- to meet our legal and reporting obligations, including to the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission
Who we share it with
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We only share it with:
- our volunteers and drivers who need it to deliver your box or respond to you
- service providers that help us run the website and take payments (for example our website host, Stripe, PayPal and our email provider)
- authorities, where the law requires it
Some of these providers may store data outside Australia. We choose providers that take reasonable steps to protect personal information.
Keeping your information secure
We store personal information securely and limit access to people who need it. Our website uses an encrypted (HTTPS) connection. We keep information only as long as we need it for the purposes above or as required by law, then delete or de-identify it.
