Privacy Policy Overview
ROOPON owned and operated by Geometric Sounds Pty Ltd having registered office in NSW, Australia, is committed to protecting your privacy. We have prepared this Privacy Policy to describe to you our practices regarding the Personal Information we collect from users of our website.
By using the Services, users consent to the collection and use of their Personal Information by us. You also represent to us that you have any and all authorisations necessary to use these Services including using them to process Personal Information. We collect and use the information you provide to us, including information obtained from your use of the Services. Also, we may use the information that we collect for our internal purposes to develop, tune, enhance, and improve our Services, and for advertising and marketing consistent with this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy has been drafted having regard to our obligations under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), the Privacy Amendment (Enhancing Privacy Protection) Act 2012 which includes the Australian Privacy Principles (collectively, the Privacy Act). This Privacy Policy is a public document and has been prepared in light of Australian Privacy Principle 1 i.e. Open and Transparent Management of Personal Information.
Please read our privacy policy carefully to get a clear understanding of how our website collects, uses, protects or otherwise handles users' Personal Information.
This Privacy Policy is intended to inform users about how our website treats Personal Information that it processes about users. If users do not agree to any part of this Privacy Policy, then we cannot provide its Services to users and users should stop accessing our services.
By using the Services, You acknowledge, consent and agree that we may collect, process, and use the information that you provide to us and that such information shall only be used by us or third parties acting under our direction, pursuant to confidentiality agreements, to develop, tune, enhance, and improve the Services.
Although we may attempt to notify you when changes are made to this Privacy Policy, you are responsible for periodically reviewing any changes which may be made to the Policy. We may, in our sole discretion, modify or revise the Policy at any time, and you agree to be bound by such modifications or revisions.

Information We Collect
When you register with us, you provide us information about yourself – your name, email address, phone number etc. If you correspond with us by e-mail, we may retain the content of your e-mail messages, your e-mail address, and our responses. We also collect general information about your use of our services.
By entering your email and phone number on our website, you may receive marketing material from us. This includes, but is not limited to, promotional offers, newsletters, and information about new products or services. We may use the information you provide us to contact you via email or phone, even if you do not submit any forms. If you do not wish to receive marketing material from us, please let us know by emailing us at support@roopon.com or by unsubscribing from our emails.
While interacting with other users on the Forum or Interactive Area, you share your contact information, the messages which you share are not private and can be viewed by any member or user of the website.
The advertisement and other related details that you post on the website and the information which you share therein are collected by us.
If you use Savings Agent (eligible memberships only), ROOPON may collect or process information derived from regulated bank-linking facilitated by Basiq: for example hashed identifiers tying your ROOPON account to a Basiq user row, mobile numbers validated for MFA, synced transaction classifications, heuristic scores, summaries and product logs needed to troubleshoot the linkage. Credential entry for your bank occurs on Basiq / bank infrastructure, not in ROOPON UI.
If you install the ROOPON Chrome Extension, we may collect information described in the ROOPON Chrome Extension section below — including optional email if you subscribe to extension updates, deal-match signals on supported Australian retailer sites, and (when you are signed in) deal click analytics to power savings features.
Savings Agent & linked bank data (Basiq)
Savings Agent aligns with AU privacy principles: we minimise data, describe purposes here, rely on aggregator-led consent for bank credentials, use processors under contract, and let you escalate questions to support@roopon.com.
Aggregator. Basiq Pty Ltd ("Basiq")is the conduit for bank linking under their platform terms plus screens you approve. Institution-specific Consumer Data Right (CDR), secure web connectors, or hybrid workflows will be disclosed interactively inside Basiq's journeys; screenshots or legal labels there supplement this Policy.
Collected / derived ROOPON-side.We may store linkage handles (such as paired user ids), ingestion diagnostics, synced transaction artefacts, classifications, heuristic scores, natural-language summaries, optional "message draft" text you copy manually, timestamps, telemetry and security logs strictly needed to operate or audit the pipeline.
Processors & cross-border implication. Beyond Basiq, ROOPON may involve additional vendors (for example infrastructure hosting providers, transactional email, AI inference partners). Contracts require confidentiality, minimise access, and (where mandated) uphold Australian Privacy Principle 8 onward disclosure mechanics. Obtain detail on sub-processors upon written request pending our published registry.
Third-party AI / LLM inference. Where Savings Agent surfaces natural-language explanations, summaries or optional draft copy, ROOPON may transmit only the minimum synced transaction-derived context needed for that step to independent LLM API providers engaged as subcontractors. Those providers host and operate the underlying models on their own infrastructure under their safeguards; ROOPON does not own or independently host the proprietary model weights. Outputs are probabilistic machine text, not individualized human statements from ROOPON staff unless expressly described otherwise. Align expectations with Terms & Conditions (Savings Agent).
Marketing. Unless you expressly opt-in to another channel, transactional bank insight data is not used to profile you for tertiary partner advertising without lawful grounds and notice.
Correction & deletion. Align profile phone/email before initiating consent journeys. Disconnecting or requesting erasure triggers reasonably prompt actions subject to AML, taxation, disputes, lawful retention or backup rotation limits.
Nothing in this section limits non-excludable consumer guarantees applicable under Commonwealth or State legislation.
ROOPON Chrome Extension
ROOPON offers an optional Chrome browser extension that surfaces Australian deal matches, price alerts, and related savings features while you browse supported retailer websites. The extension is operated by Geometric Sounds Pty Ltd (ROOPON) and is governed by this Site Policy together with our Terms & Conditions.
What the extension does. On supported Australian shopping sites, the extension may read page context (such as retailer domain, product title, and visible price information) to determine whether a ROOPON deal or alert applies. It may display a badge or notification when a match is found and can open ROOPON pages (for example /deals, /signup, or /welcome) when you choose to act on an offer.
Information we may collect. Depending on how you use the extension, we may process:
- Optional email address if you subscribe to extension-related updates or lead capture flows (stored in our systems and, where applicable, our email/marketing providers).
- Deal interaction data when you are signed in to ROOPON — for example deal identifier, page price shown on the retailer site, matched ROOPON deal price, estimated savings, and whether the interaction came from the extension or the website.
- Technical and usage data such as extension version, browser type, timestamps, and diagnostic logs needed to operate, secure, and improve the extension.
- Account linkage when you log in through ROOPON while the extension is installed, so member-only features (such as tracked savings) can work.
What we do not collect via the extension.We do not use the extension to collect your retailer login passwords, payment card numbers, or bank account credentials. We do not intend to monitor your general browsing outside supported retailer pages required to deliver deal matching. Checkout and payment steps on third-party retailer sites remain subject to those retailers' own privacy policies.
Permissions.The extension requests browser permissions only as needed to read supported shopping pages, show alerts, and communicate with ROOPON services. Permission prompts are controlled by Chrome; you can review or revoke them in your browser's extension settings at any time.
How we use extension data. We use this information to match deals, show price alerts, measure feature performance, improve our deal catalogue, personalise savings tracking for signed-in members, and send service or marketing communications where you have provided contact details and not opted out.
Sharing. We do not sell extension-derived personal information. We may share limited data with service providers (for example hosting, analytics, and email delivery) under confidentiality obligations, or where required by law. Retailer websites you visit are third parties — ROOPON does not control their data practices.
Your choices. You may uninstall the extension from Chrome at any time (Extensions → ROOPON → Remove). Uninstalling stops future collection through the extension. To opt out of marketing emails, use the unsubscribe link in our messages or contact support@roopon.com. Signed-in members can manage account details in Settings. To request deletion of extension-related personal information, email support@roopon.com with the email address tied to your account or extension subscription.
Children. The extension is not directed at persons under 18. Do not install or use it if you are under 18.
Updates. We may update extension functionality and this disclosure from time to time. Material changes will be reflected on this page. Continued use of the extension after changes are posted constitutes acknowledgement of the updated policy, to the extent permitted by law.
Automatically Collected Information
When you access or use our Services, we automatically collect information about you, including:
- Log Information: We log information about your use of our website, including your browser type and language, access times, pages viewed, your IP address and the website you visited before navigating to our website.
- Device Information: We may collect information about the device you use to access our Services, including the hardware model, operating system and version, unique device identifier, phone number, International Mobile Equipment Identity ("IMEI") and mobile network information.
- Location Information: With your consent, we may collect information about the location of your device to facilitate your use of certain features of our Services, determine the speed at which your device is traveling, add location-based filters (such as local weather), and for any other purposes.
Information Collected by Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies: We use various technologies to collect information, and this may include sending cookies to you. A "cookie" is a small data file transferred to your computer's hard drive that allows a Website to respond to you as an individual, gathering and remembering information about your preferences in order to tailor its operation to your needs, likes and dislikes.
Overall, cookies are safe, as they only identify your computer to customize your Web experience. Accepting a cookie does not provide us access to your computer or any Personal Information about you, other than the information you choose to share. Other servers cannot read them, nor can they be used to deliver a virus.
Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually adjust yours (Microsoft Internet Explorer, Firefox or Google Chrome) to notify you of cookie placement requests, refuse certain cookies, or decline cookies completely. If you turn off cookies completely, there may be some website features that will not be available to you, and some Web pages may not display properly.
To support the personalized features of our website (such as your country and language codes and browsing functions) we must send a cookie to your computer's hard drive and/or use cookie-based authentication to identify you as a registered website user.
How We Use Your Information
We use the personal information we collect to fulfil your requests for services, improve our services and contact you.
By typing into any form and providing us your e-mail address and or mobile number, you consent to us using the e-mail address and mobile number to send you our website and services related notices, including any notices required by law, in lieu of communication by postal mail. You also agree that we may send notifications of activity on our website to the e-mail address or mobile device you give us, in accordance with any applicable privacy settings. We may use your e-mail address to send you other messages, such as newsletters, changes to our features, or other information. If you do not want to receive optional e-mail messages, you may modify your settings to opt out.
Our settings may also allow you to adjust your communications preferences. If you do not wish to receive promotional email messages from us, you may opt out by following the unsubscribe instructions in those emails. If you opt out, you will still receive non-promotional emails from us about your account and our Services.
Following termination or deactivation of your services, we may (but are under no obligation to) retain your information for archival purposes. We will not publicly disclose any of your Personal Information other than as described in this Privacy Policy.
At our sole discretion, for any reason or no reason at all, we reserve the right to remove any content or messages, if we believe that such action is necessary:
- to conform to the law, comply with legal process served on us, or investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal activities;
- to enforce this policy, to take precautions against liability, to investigate and defend ourselves against any third-party claims or allegations, to assist government enforcement agencies, or to protect the security or integrity of our website;
- to exercise or protect the rights, property, or personal safety of the website, our users, or others.
How We Share Your Information
As a matter of policy, we will not sell or rent information about you and we will not disclose information about you in a manner inconsistent with this Privacy Policy except as required by law or government regulation.
We will not share your personal information with any third party for their own marketing purposes without your consent. We have contracts with third parties prohibiting them from sharing your Personal Information.
Text message opt-in and consent. We will not share your text message opt-in or consent status with any third party for purposes unrelated to providing the messaging service. We may share this data with vendors who help us deliver text messages, including platform providers and phone companies.
We may disclose information to law enforcement, other government officials, or other third parties as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringement, or other activity that is illegal or may expose us to liability.
If you activate Savings Agent, we share the minimum relevant personal information with our aggregation vendor Basiq (and as Basiq must share with authorised financial institutions subject to consent) to deliver linked-account insights described in those consent screens. Separately, where you use AI-assisted Savings Agent summaries or drafts, we may share similarly minimal transaction-derived context with subcontracted LLM inference providers strictly to produce that output—see Savings Agent disclosures in Terms & Conditions and the Site Policy section above.
Ensuring Information Accuracy
We take reasonable precautions to ensure that the Personal Information we Collect, Use and Disclose is complete, relevant and up-to-date. However, the accuracy of that information depends to a large extent on the information you provide. That's why we recommend that you:
- Let us know if there are any errors in your Personal Information; and
- Keep us up-to-date with changes to your Personal Information such as your name or address.
How We Protect Your Information
We employ administrative, physical and electronic measures designed to protect your information from unauthorized access. We use commercially reasonable physical, managerial, and technical safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of your Personal Information.
However, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission of information, we make commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of our systems.
Your Choices About Your Information
You have several choices regarding use of information on our Services:
- Email Communications: You may opt-out of receiving promotional emails
- Personal Data: You may change or delete your personal information by contacting us
- Account Settings: You can review and correct your information through your account settings
- Chrome Extension: You may uninstall the ROOPON extension from your browser at any time; see the ROOPON Chrome Extension section for details
Children's Privacy
We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from anyone under the age of 18 or knowingly allow such persons to register. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to register for the Service or send any information about yourself to us.
Mergers and Acquisitions
In case of a merger or acquisition, we reserve the right to transfer all the information, including personal data, stored with us to the new entity or company thus formed. Any change in the website's policies and standing will be notified to you through email.
Links to Third Party Websites
Our website contains links to other websites. The fact that we link to a website is not an endorsement, authorisation or representation of our affiliation with that third party. We do not exercise control over third party websites. These other websites may place their own cookies or other files on your computer, collect data or solicit personal information from you. Other sites follow different rules regarding the use or disclosure of the personal information you submit to them. We encourage you to read the privacy policies or statements of the other websites you visit.
Notification Procedures
It is our policy to provide notifications, whether such notifications are required by law or are for marketing or other business related purposes, to you via e-mail notice, written or hard copy notice, or through conspicuous posting of such notice on the website, as determined by us in our sole discretion. We reserve the right to determine the form and means of providing notifications to you, provided that you may opt out of certain means of notification as described in this Privacy Policy.
Do Not Track
Do Not Track ("DNT") is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers. DNT is a way for users to inform website and services that they do not want certain information about their webpage visits collected over time and across websites or online services.
We are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information collected on our website for third party purposes, and that is why we provide the opt-out links. However, we do not recognise or respond to browser-initiated DNT signals, as the Internet industry is currently still working toward defining exactly what DNT means, what it means to comply with DNT, and a common approach to responding to DNT.
Opting Out of Information Sharing
We understand and respect that not all users may want to allow us to share their information. If you do not want us to share your information, please contact us through the support@roopon.com and we will remove your information as soon as reasonably practicable. When contacting us, please clearly state your request, including your name, mailing address, email address and phone number.
However, under the following circumstances, we may still be required to share your personal information:
- if we are responding to court orders or legal process, or if we need to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.
- If we believe it is necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our Terms of Use or as otherwise required by law.
- If we believe it is necessary to restrict or inhibit any user from using any of our Site, including, without limitation, by means of "hacking" or defacing any portion thereof.
Phishing or False Emails
If you receive an unsolicited email that appears to be from us or one of our members that requests personal data (such as your credit card, login, or password), or that asks you to verify or confirm your account or other personal information by clicking on a link, that email was likely to have been sent by someone trying to unlawfully obtain your information, sometimes referred to as a "phisher" or "spoofer." We do not ask for this type of information in an email. Do not provide the information or click on the link. Please contact us on the contact details provided on the website if you get an email like this.
Changes to Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy and information security procedures from time to time. If these privacy and/or information security procedures materially change at any time in the future, we will post the new changes conspicuously on the website to notify you and provide you with the ability to opt out in accordance with the provisions set forth above.
Continued use of our website and Service, following notice of such changes shall indicate your acknowledgement of such changes and agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of such changes.

We reserve the right to terminate or suspend any account or delete certain contents from any profile or public domain within the ambit of this website if the said account or content is found to be in violation of our privacy policy. We sincerely request you to respect privacy and secrecy concerns of others. The jurisdiction of any breach or dispute shall be determined in accordance with the terms of use of the website.
No Reservations
We do not accept any reservation or any type of limited acceptance of our privacy policy. You expressly agree to each and every term and condition as stipulated in this policy without any exception whatsoever.
No Conflict
The policy constitutes a part of the user terms. We have taken utmost care to avoid any inconsistency or conflict of this policy with any other terms, agreements or guidelines available on our website.
