Privacy Policy
HiParty ("HiParty", "we", "us" or "our") operates the HiParty entertainment venue located at SKY SQUARE L101, 519-521 Station Street, Box Hill VIC 3128, Australia, together with this website. This Privacy Policy sets out the manner in which we collect, hold, use, disclose and safeguard personal information, and is to be read in conjunction with our obligations under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles ("APPs") made thereunder.
You acknowledge that all bookings, payments and related transactions are processed exclusively through an independent third-party booking system (the "Third-Party Booking System"). Personal information submitted to the Third-Party Booking System is collected, held and processed by its operator in accordance with that operator's own privacy policy, which we recommend you review prior to making a booking. HiParty shall not be responsible for the privacy practices of the Third-Party Booking System or its operator.
