This policy applies to all personal data processed by JaffaMSOnline in connection with this website. It does not apply to third-party websites linked from this site — those websites have their own privacy policies for which we take no responsibility.

How We Use Your Information
We use the personal information we collect only for the specific purposes for which it was provided, or for compatible purposes as described below.
- To send email communications you have subscribed to, including newsletters, training insights, new article notifications, and information about digital products.
- To deliver digital products and process purchases you have made through this website.
- To respond to enquiries you send us via contact forms or email.
- To analyse and improve the website's content, structure, and performance using aggregated, anonymised usage data.
- To comply with legal obligations, including maintaining records required by applicable tax or consumer law.
We will not use your personal data for any purpose that is incompatible with the reason it was originally collected without first notifying you and, where required, obtaining your consent.
Legal basis for processing: where applicable data protection law requires a lawful basis, we process your data on the following grounds — your consent (for email marketing), contract performance (for product delivery), legitimate interests (for website analytics), and legal obligation (for record-keeping).
Data Storage & Security
Your personal data is stored on secure servers provided by our third-party service providers, including our email marketing platform, website hosting provider, and payment processor. All providers are selected on the basis of their security standards and data handling practices.
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against accidental loss, unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include password protection, encrypted data transmission (HTTPS), and access controls limiting who can view personal data.
Data retention: we retain your email address and subscription data for as long as you remain subscribed to our mailing list. Upon unsubscribing, your data will be removed from active lists within a reasonable period. Purchase records may be retained for up to seven years in accordance with applicable accounting and tax obligations. Analytics data is retained in aggregated, anonymised form.
No method of transmission or storage over the internet is completely secure. While we take reasonable precautions, we cannot guarantee absolute security and accept no liability for unauthorised access beyond our reasonable control.
If you are located outside the country in which JaffaMSOnline operates, your data may be transferred to and processed in a different jurisdiction. Where this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with applicable data protection law.

- Service providers — we share data with trusted third-party platforms that help us operate this website and deliver our services, including our email marketing platform, payment processor, and website hosting provider. These providers are contractually obligated to handle data only as instructed and in accordance with applicable law.
- Legal compliance — we may disclose personal data if required to do so by law, court order, or government authority, or where we reasonably believe disclosure is necessary to protect our legal rights, prevent fraud, or ensure the safety of any person.
- Business transfers — in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, personal data held by JaffaMSOnline may be transferred to the acquiring party, subject to equivalent privacy protections.
In all cases, data sharing is limited to the minimum information necessary and is conducted in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
