This policy applies to bestswim.com.au and to enquiries we receive by email, contact form or social media.

Information collected automatically
When you browse bestswim.com.au, we and our analytics providers may collect technical information such as device type, browser, approximate location, pages viewed and referring links. This is used to keep the site secure, measure performance and improve the shopping experience.
Cookies and similar technologies are explained in our Cookie Policy.
Facebook advertising privacy settings
We use Meta Pixel for advertising measurement: to measure permitted page visits and shopping actions (viewing a product, adding to cart and starting checkout) from Facebook and Instagram ads, and to show relevant ads to people who visited our shop. Meta receives page URLs, the product IDs, prices and currency involved, device and browser information, IP address and cookie identifiers. We do not send form answers, names, email addresses, addresses or customer matching data through this installation. Meta may process this information outside Australia.
We do not show a consent banner. Facebook tracking stays off in regions requiring advertising consent and when your region cannot be determined. Global Privacy Control, Do Not Track and your saved refusal are respected. You can withdraw advertising permission below; your refusal takes effect immediately in this browser and its other open tabs. Ad clicks and impressions still count on Facebook and Instagram.
See Meta's Privacy Policy for its data practices and controls.
Payments and third-party processing
Payments are handled by our e-commerce and payment providers, and card details are entered directly with those providers. We do not store full payment card numbers.
We share only what is required to complete your order. Your name, delivery address and contact details are provided to our delivery partners so your caps can be shipped and tracked.
How we use your information
- To process, produce, package and deliver your order.
- To prepare quotes, digital proofs and artwork for custom cap orders.
- To answer enquiries and provide customer support.
- To manage returns, warranty claims and consumer guarantee requests.
- To send order messages such as confirmations, proofs, dispatch and tracking updates.
- To send marketing emails where you have opted in.
- To administer athlete programs, competitions and reviews.
- To improve our products, website and service.
- To meet our legal, tax and record-keeping obligations.
Marketing versus order communication
Marketing messages: launch news, offers and discount codes, are only sent where you have opted in. Every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link.
Order messages: confirmations, artwork proofs, production updates, dispatch and delivery notices, are part of fulfilling your order and are sent regardless of your marketing preferences.
Club logos, artwork and athlete names
When you supply a club logo, artwork or a list of athlete names for personalisation, we use that material only to prepare proofs, produce your caps and keep a production record for reorders. You confirm that you have permission to supply that material. Requests to delete artwork or name lists after production can be sent to support@bestswim.com.au.
Young people
Many swimmers are under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from a child without the involvement of a parent, guardian, club or school. Where an athlete under 18 takes part in a collaboration, review, competition or content opportunity, we require parent or guardian consent before their personal information, name or image is used.
Who we share information with
- Our e-commerce platform and payment providers.
- Delivery and freight partners.
- Cap production partners, for custom orders only and only as required to manufacture your order.
- Email marketing, analytics and customer support tools.
- Professional advisers, or where required by Australian law.
Storage and security
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, loss and unauthorised access. Some of our service providers may store data outside Australia. We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected, or as required by law.
Access, correction and complaints
You may request access to the personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it where we are not required to keep it. Email support@bestswim.com.au.
