This Privacy Policy relates to personal information we collect and handle about Ferrari  customers and visitors to our website, social media and other digital services.

At times we are required to collect personal information in the normal course of providing services for our customers.

To allow us to process an order, we need to collect your name, mailing address, phone number, email address, credit card number and expiry date. Once your order is completed, we may hold your order details, only to verify any queries that may result from the order.

These customer services include:

For example, cookies allow us to recognise whether or not you are returning to our websites.

This may allow us to alert you to products or offers which we think you might be interested in viewing.

When you click on links and banners on our sites that take you to third-party websites, you will be subject to that third-party’s privacy policies.

While we support the protection of privacy on the internet, we cannot be held responsible for the actions of any third-party websites.

We collect information on website activity, such as the number of users who have visited, the number of pages viewed, navigation patterns, what systems users have and the date and time of visits. This information is collected for statistical purposes only and cannot be used to identify you.

We hold personal information electronically and in hard copy form, both at our own premises and with the assistance of our service providers. We implement a range of measures to protect the security of that personal information. We also take measures in respect of destroying or de-identifying personal information that is no longer needed for any lawful purpose.

We also use your personal information to promote and market products and services to you, including through electronic methods such as email and SMS. This is to keep you informed of products, services and special offers and may continue after you cease to acquire services from us.

Service providers and specialist advisers who have been contracted to provide administrative, financial, research or other services, insurers, credit providers, courts, tribunals and regulatory authorities (including the Australian Tax Office) as required or authorised by law, credit reporting or reference agencies or insurance investigators or anyone authorised by an individual, as specified by that individual or the contract.

We may give personal information about you to a credit reporting agency, whether before, during or after the provision of credit to you, for the following purposes:

To obtain a consumer credit report about you; and/or to allow the credit reporting agency to create or maintain a credit information file containing information about you.
