Your use of this website is subject to all applicable laws, these general terms and conditions, the privacy policy below and any additional terms of use indicated on this website (together, the "Terms"). By accessing and browsing chowluckcub.com ("our website"), you agree to be bound by the Terms. If you do not wish to be bound by the Terms, please do not use our websites. CLC may amend the Terms from time to time (see clause 5 below). You agree to be bound by the Terms in effect at the time at which you access this website. 2. General Disclaimer: CLC makes every effort to ensure the information published on our website is up-to-date and accurate. However, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of our content at any one time. CLC does not accept any liability for any loss or damage which may directly or indirectly result from any advice, opinion, information, representation or omission, whether negligent or otherwise, contained on or accessed through our websites. 3. CLC is not an agent of any retailer or third party. If you buy products from the retailer's own website, CLC will not be responsible to you in any way relating to those purchases or any transaction you may enter into through use of our website. 4. Additional terms: Some of the individual services, promotions, events and offers advertised on or through our websites are governed by CLC's and third party suppliers' additional terms of use (the "Additional Terms"). You accept, and agree to comply with, any Additional Terms (and CLC's Additional Terms prevail if there is any inconsistency with these general terms and conditions). 5. Changes to Terms: These Terms may be amended at any time by CLC without specific notice to you. The latest Terms will be posted on our website, and you should review these Terms prior to using our website. 6. Limited duration and availability: Any events, offers and deals listed on our website may only be available for a limited time period (as indicated on the website) and are only available and redeemable in New Zealand by New Zealand residents and visitors in New Zealand (except where expressly stated otherwise). Such events, offers and deals are also subject to availability and change and are the sole responsibility of the relevant third party supplier, not CLC. In some instances, the events, offers and deals listed on our websites will be subject to strict age restrictions (e.g. R18 or R20), including but not limited to events, offers and deals for bars, restaurants, hotels and casinos and so only persons who meet the age restrictions are eligible for the aforesaid events, offers and deals.

Notice of Copyright: Material that you see on our websites or contained in emails sent to you by CLC (including email newsletters) may be protected by copyright or trademark, patent or other protections (“the Rights”), even if it is not stated to be. You may not download, copy, reprint, distribute or otherwise publish information, graphics or images from our websites without the express permission of the owner of the Rights. CLC is not responsible for damage (including damage caused by viruses) to your computer or software or any losses suffered by you as a result of downloading, installing or using the material. 9. Price and GST: Unless expressly stated otherwise, all references to price on our websites are in New Zealand Dollars (NZD) and are subject to Goods and Services Tax (GST), where applicable. 10. No responsibility: Although CLC endeavours to ensure that the third party events, offers and deals on chowluckclub.com are genuine, CLC does not necessarily sponsor, guarantee or approve of any of the events, offers or deals advertised or promoted on this website and, to the extent permitted by law, accepts no responsibility or liability for the events, offers or deals whatsoever. Admission to some events, or redemption of some offers or deals, may require the purchase of tickets or advanced booking, which are subject to availability and Additional Terms. 11. Accuracy: CLC endeavours to ensure the information and data published on our website, including but not limited to publications or information and data, is up-to-date and accurate.

CLC does not accept any liability (to the extent permitted by law), for any loss or damage which may directly or indirectly result from any advice, opinion, information, representation or omission, whether negligent or otherwise, contained on or accessed through our website or any emails or electronic alerts sent to you by CLC (including but not limited to email newsletters). 12.

Your consent: By using our website and signing up to email newsletter/s, offer alerts or other alerts and/or using CLC's services, you consent to our collection, use, disclosure, and processing of your personal information as described in this privacy policy. 2. If we change our privacy policies and procedures, we will post those changes on our website to keep you aware of what information we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances we may disclose it. 3. Cookies and web tags: Cookies are small bits of data that are deposited on a user's browser. Our website utilises cookies, IP addresses and other interactive techniques such as web tags to collect information on how you use our website for specific functions, including running analytics and targeting messaging on social media. The cookies and tags we use do not collect personally identifiable information, and we do not use them to determine your identity. Cookies permit users to store their password and other user information without having to constantly re-enter this data. Cookies also permit us to tailor our website to your needs. Most browsers permit users to decline to accept cookies, although the default setting is typically to accept them. You may choose to decline the cookies, but refusing cookies may limit your ability to use our websites in their entirety. 4. Information collection: If you do nothing during your visit but browse through our websites and read the information contained on the web pages, then we may gather certain information about your visit automatically. This information does not identify you personally. We may automatically gather the internet domain (for example, "companyx.co.nz" if you use a private internet access account, or "myschool.ac.nz" if you connect from a university's domain), IP address (an IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the web) from which you access our website, and the date and time you access our website and the pages you visit. This information is used in statistical and aggregate formats to assess the effectiveness of and improve our websites and CLC's services, to determine our visitors' preferences and interests, and to help us target messaging on social media. We may collect nonpublic personal information from you when you voluntarily provide personally identifiable information to us through our websites, such as when entering competitions or submitting a membership application. We limit use of such information to the purposes for which the information was provided and/or intended for. If you send an email that includes personally identifiable information, for example, in an email containing an inquiry, we will use that information to respond to your inquiry. Remember that email is not necessarily secure against interception. 5. Consumer member registration: To apply for, or be entitled to, an event, offer or deal on the consumer website (chowluckclub.com), you may be prompted to register as a member of the website. If you register as a member directly through the website, you will need to provide CLC with personal information such as your name and email address. If you register as a member through Facebook, you will be required to give permission to CLC to access your basic information (which includes your name, profile picture, gender, networks, user ID, list of friends, and any other information you have publicly shared). You will not be able to register as a member if you do not provide or allow CLC access to such personal information. 6. Newsletters: When you subscribe to either, or both of our newsletter mailing lists, your details become part of CLC's email newsletter mailing list. Being part of this list enables us to send you information about offers, events and the latest in dining and lifestyle. The information you have provided will remain confidential and will be used only for the purpose of communication, as well as for targeting our messaging on social media via de-identified means (eg using Audiences on Facebook). Once subscribed to these mailing lists, you may unsubscribe at any time. 7. Offer Alerts: When you subscribe to receive offer alerts, your details become part of the CLC's mailing list. Being part of this list enables us to send you information about CLC offers. Only CLC has rights to this mailing list and we will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your contact details remain confidential at all times. Once subscribed to this mailing list, you may unsubscribe at any time. 8.
