At Lux Wagyu House, we curate the pinnacle of Wagyu, promising an unparalleled experience.

This Privacy Policy describes how JY Lux Wagyu House PTY LTD, trading as Lux Wagyu House (“we,” “us,” “our,” or “Company”, ABN 78 639 646 683) collects, uses, stores, shares and protects personal information when you visit our website at luxwagyuhouse.com.au (the “Site”), interact with our AI-powered chat assistant (the ‘AI Chat Assistant’), place an order, visit our retail store, or otherwise engage with our business.

This policy applies to visitors to the Site, users of the AI Chat Assistant, customers who purchase our products, wholesale and trade partners, and anyone who provides information through our forms, our online shop, the AI Chat Assistant, or direct communications with us. By accessing our Site, App, or services, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our services.

Personal information we collect

When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies installed on your device. As you browse the Site, we also collect information about the individual web pages you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the Site, and how you interact with the Site. We refer to this automatically collected information as “Device Information.”

We collect Device Information using the following technologies:

  • Cookies – data files placed on your device that often include an anonymous unique identifier. For more information about cookies, and how to disable them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.
  • Log files – track actions occurring on the Site and collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps.
  • Web beacons, tags and pixels – electronic files used to record information about how you browse the Site.

When you place an order, visit our retail store, or contact us, we may also collect: your name, delivery and billing address, email address, phone number, payment details (processed by our payment provider – we do not store full card numbers), order history, and any information you choose to provide when contacting us. When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we mean both Device Information and this directly provided information, including information collected via the AI Chat Assistant as described in the section below.

AI Tool Interaction Data

When you interact with our AI Chat Assistant, we may receive and process the text you submit, including questions about our Wagyu beef products, cuts, marbling grades, pricing, availability, Halal certification, cooking methods, and delivery options, together with any contact details you choose to provide, such as your name, email address or phone number.

Our AI Chat Assistant is provided by HighLevel (HighLevel LLC / LeadConnector LLC), the customer relationship platform behind our website’s chat feature. HighLevel uses its own sub-processors to help deliver the service, including artificial intelligence providers such as OpenAI. HighLevel publishes its current sub-processor list at gohighlevel.com/sub-processors, and that list may change from time to time.

Cloudflare Turnstile sits in front of the AI Chat Assistant to filter spam and automated traffic, and therefore also sees visitor traffic to the widget.

We retain conversations with the AI Chat Assistant for 12 months, to support enquiry follow-up, service quality and dispute resolution.

Conversations are visible to: Lux Wagyu House, through our own dashboard login; Studio 22, through our agency access as your chatbot developer; and Hera Digital, as the party that operates and maintains the build.

Please avoid submitting sensitive personal information (such as health, financial or government ID details) through the AI Chat Assistant, as it is designed for product and ordering assistance only.

How do we use your personal information?

We use the Personal Information we collect generally to guide you through the Site and AI Chat Assistant (including processing payment information, arranging shipping, and providing invoices and order confirmations). Additionally, we use this Personal Information to:

  • Communicate with you about your order, enquiry, or AI Chat Assistant conversation;
  • Screen orders for potential risk or fraud; and
  • When in line with the preferences you have shared with us, provide information or advertising relating to our products or services.

We use Device Information to help screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimise our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of marketing and advertising campaigns).
