We may, from time to time, employ the services of other parties for dealing with matters relating to payment handling, delivery of purchased items, search engine facilities, advertising, and marketing. The providers of such services do have access to certain personal information provided by any website user. Any of this information is only used by them to perform the services that are requested by us, and nothing else, as this is prohibited.
A list of third parties to who your information may be passed is available upon request at customerservice@zuzumia.com.
We do have a marketing department and upon registration or placing an online order we will be notifying you with regards to the order, and the entire transaction process.

You do however have the option to opt out of these if you wish.
Furthermore, any of the provided information that is processed by third parties must be processed within the terms of this Privacy Policy and in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Unless we are obliged or permitted by law to do so, and other than the previously mentioned, your information will not be disclosed to any other third parties.
Marketing purposes
We may use your personal data to provide you with information that you have requested from us and to inform you of offers or other goods or services that may be of interest to you (but only where you have not objected to being contacted for such purposes).
We will only contact you by electronic means (email) information about goods and services similar to those which were the subject of a previous sale to you. We will do this where you have made an order with us or you have otherwise confirmed that you agree to us sending you such information (see 'What is our lawful basis for using your information below).
Please note that you have the right to ask us not to process your personal data for marketing purposes. We will usually inform you before collecting your data if we intend to use your data for such purposes or if we intend to disclose your information to any third party for such purposes. You can exercise your right to prevent such processing by:
- Checking certain boxes on the forms we use to collect your data; or
- You can also request us not to use your personal data for this purpose when setting up your Zuzumia account; or
- Using the Unsubscribe link provided in all marketing communications; or
- By emailing us at customerservice@zuzumia.com

The lawful bases on which we rely in order to use the information which we collect about you for the purposes set out in this statement will be:
- Contract: Using your information will be necessary for us to either perform the contract between us or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into the contract;
- Legal compliance: Using your information will be necessary for us to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation which is placed on Zuzumia;
- Legitimate interest: Using your information will be necessary for our legitimate commercial interest and our interest is not outweighed by the potential impact on your privacy. For example, we rely on legitimate interest as our lawful basis to send you marketing information by email or by post if you have placed an order with us and you have not objected to receiving such marketing information. If you would prefer not to receive marketing information from us, please email us at customerservice@zuzumia.com;
- Consent: It is possible that you may give us your consent to use your information for a particular purpose.
SMS/MMS Mobile Messaging Marketing Program
We respect your privacy. We will only use the information you provide through the Program to transmit your mobile messages and respond to you, if necessary. This includes, but is not limited to, sharing information with platform providers, phone companies, and other vendors who assist us in the delivery of mobile messages. WE DO NOT SELL, RENT, LOAN, TRADE, LEASE, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER FOR PROFIT ANY PHONE NUMBERS OR CUSTOMER INFORMATION COLLECTED THROUGH THE PROGRAM TO ANY THIRD PARTY. Nonetheless, We reserve the right at all times to disclose any information as necessary to satisfy any law, regulation, or governmental request, to avoid liability, or to protect Our rights or property. When you complete forms online or otherwise provide Us information in connection with the Program, you agree to provide accurate, complete, and true information. You agree not to use a false or misleading name or a name that you are not authorized to use. If in Our sole discretion, We believe that any such information is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete, or you have opted into the Program for an ulterior purpose, We may refuse you access to the Program and pursue any appropriate legal remedies.
Your right to withhold information
You can still access certain areas of the website without providing any information at all. However, to use all services and systems available on our website you may be required to submit account information or other data. You may restrict your internet browser’s use of cookies. We provided more information regarding this below.
Cookies
We use these to provide a better online experience.
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, mobile phone, or device. Cookies may be placed on your device when you visit any website or open a marketing email.
Zuzumia Ltd. does not use cookies to collect personally identifiable information about you. We use cookies to remember your preferences when you visit our website, tailor your visit, and monitor traffic to enable us to improve our website, our products, and our services.
We also set third-parties cookies to allow you to easily link to third-party social media platforms or websites. Please visit these third-party websites for more information on these particular cookies.
You can set your browser not to accept cookies and the above websites tell you how to remove cookies from your browser. However, in a few cases, some of our website features may not function if you remove cookies from your browser, but there will not be many.
Accessing your own data
You may access your online account at any time to view or amend any of the information that you have provided us with. You may need to modify or update it if your circumstances change, or if any errors have occurred. Additional data as to your marketing preferences may also be stored and you may change this at any time.
You have the right to ask for a copy of your personal information at any time or make the request for anything to be removed.
If you do not wish to receive marketing, promotions, or news from us, you can opt out at any time by emailing customerservice@zuzumia.com.

Security
Data security is of great importance to us and to protect it we have put in place suitable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure it all. There is limited access to your information, the use of passwords is continuous, and we have our computers with the appropriate firewalls.
As previously mentioned, we have put in place browser certification technology and encryption on our website which is why you see the green padlock next to our website address in the bar at the top of your browser. This protects your information and keeps everything private.
When you visit a website that uses HTTPS (connection security), like us, our website's server uses a special certificate to prove our identity to the browser that you are using. To help you stay on safe on the web, many website browsers require websites to use these certificates.
In the unlikely event of a data breach of any sort, this will be rectified in-house with the support of https://ico.org.uk. Being as the information we carry on our website and in our marketing details is non-financial, this is not of much use to anyone other than ourselves. We are basically a shop and not a service provider. We sell a physical product to you rather than allowing you to use a service that we provide.
No debit/credit card information is held on this website.
How long we keep your information for?
If you create an account and/or make an order with us we will hold your data for seven years to satisfy accounting law.
Your rights over your information
By law, you can ask us what information we hold about you, and you can ask us to correct it if it is inaccurate. You can also ask us to give you a copy of the information and to stop using your information for a period of time if you believe we are not doing so lawfully. Please use the contact information provided above to submit a request by email, post or telephone.
Your right to complain
If you have a complaint about our use of your information, you can contact the Information Commissioner’s Office via their website or write to them at:
