Leather Direct follows best practice data tracking and collection protocols for our online user audience.

- To supply services to our members,
- To enable us to communicate with members.

Under no circumstances will we sell members’ information. The only time information is disclosed to a third party is when it is related to the provision and/or improvement of services or if we are required to do so by Australian law. In both cases these entities meet with strict guidelines to preserve members’ privacy.
