Who may we disclose your information to? 

Our customers' information is an important part of our business. We share information only as described below and with companies that follow practices that have the same level of privacy protection as those described in this Privacy Policy: 

  • Third Parties: To provide our services, we may cooperate with other companies or non-affiliated service providers (e.g., logistics companies used to deliver products to you, marketing companies, payment processors to process online transactions, etc.). These other companies may, for the purposes of fulfilling your transactions, store your information in a digital wallet to make your use of our services more efficient.
     
    You understand the importance of these companies having access to relevant information to perform their tasks. We ensure that these companies do not use your information for other purposes. We may also receive information from these companies (e.g., delivery information and updated addresses) for use (e.g., to correct our records and deliver goods you have purchased). By using the Platform, you agree to the transfer, storage, use, and disclosure of your information between our affiliates and non-affiliated service providers wherever they may be located. These companies are contractually obligated to respect the privacy of your information.
     
  • Marketing and Promotions: We may also use your information to provide you with information about products and services that you may be interested in and to enhance your browsing experience on the Platform, service messages, new features and enhancements, special offers, and events that may be of interest to you.
     
    We may communicate with you through various channels, including but not limited to email, web notifications, posts, phone, app messages, WhatsApp messages, and news article push notifications.
     
    We may allow third parties to use your information, for example, we may provide information to advertisers to help them reach their target audience and to enable us to fulfill our obligations to advertisers (e.g., by displaying their ads to the target audience).
     
    In addition, to participate in some of our competitions and promotions, you may be asked to provide additional information. For example, if you win a competition, you may be asked to provide additional information, for example, to confirm your eligibility and deliver your prize. This information may be collected by us or by participating sponsors or vendors of the promotions. Please note that you should review the privacy policies of these third parties to understand how they use any information they collect.
     
  • Business Transfers: In the event that our company or all of our assets are acquired, customer information will be one of the transferred assets.
     
  • Protection of Our Platform and Other Sites: We disclose customer account information and other personal information when we believe disclosure is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our agreements, investigate or respond to potential violations of our policies or security, or protect the rights, property, or safety of our users or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction purposes.
     
    Please note that our Platform may, from time to time, contain links to and from websites of our partner networks, advertisers, and affiliates. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that these websites have their own privacy policies and that we are not responsible or liable for any such policies. Please check those policies before you submit any personal data or other information to such websites.
     

How do we store your information? 

The information we collect from you may be transferred to or stored at a data center outside of Saudi Arabia. It may also be processed by staff operating outside of Saudi Arabia who work on, among other things, fulfilling your orders, processing your payment details, and providing support services.

Your information may be transferred, stored, processed, and used by our affiliates and non-affiliated service providers. In addition, your payment information may be transferred and stored by our affiliates for payment processing and technical support services.
 

What security measures do we apply? 

We take appropriate technical, commercial, and organizational steps to ensure that your information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and the laws applicable to it. We aim to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. For example, we may use electronic encryption technology to protect your information when it is transmitted to our Platform, as well as external firewalls and server-side firewalls to help prevent unauthorized network attacks. Only employees, service providers, and agents who need to know your information will be allowed access to it to perform their jobs.
 
It is important for you to ensure that you protect your password and the device you use to access our Platform to prevent unauthorized access from others. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password, such as ensuring you log out after using a shared device.
 
While we strive to protect your information, we do not guarantee the security of any information transmitted to our Platform, and you are solely responsible for the risks associated with sending any information to us.
