What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It
Ecommerce
While you visit our site, we will track:
- The products you have viewed. We will use this to, for example, show you products you have recently viewed.
- Your location, IP address and browser type. We will use this for purposes like estimating taxes and shipping rates.
- Your shipping addresses. We will ask you to enter this so we can, for instance, estimate shipping rates before you place an order, and send you the order!
When you purchase from us, we will ask you to provide information including your name, billing address, shipping address, email address, phone number, credit card/payment details and optional account information like username and password. We will use this information for purposes, such as, to:
- Send you information about your account and order.
- Respond to your requests, including refunds and complaints.
- Process payments and prevent fraud.
- Set up your account for our store.
- Comply with any legal obligations we have, such as calculating taxes (value added tax for residents of Tanzania).
- Improve our store offerings.
- Send you marketing messages, if you choose to receive them.
If you create an account, we will store your name, address, email and phone number, which will be used to populate the checkout for future orders.
We generally store information about you for as long as we need the information for the purposes for which we collect and use it, and we are not legally required to continue to keep it. For example, we will store order information indefinitely for tax and accounting purposes. This includes your name, email address and billing and shipping addresses.
If you register on our website, we also store the personal information you provide in your user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (excluding changing your username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
We DON’T collect or have access to your Credit Card or PayPal information.
