KEKE Designer Desserts (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal information is handled in a safe, fair, and lawful manner. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, store, and protect your information when you visit our website or place an order with us, in full compliance with Jamaica’s Data Protection Act (DPA).
1. Information We Collect and Purpose Limitation
In accordance with the principle of data minimization and purpose limitation under the DPA, we collect personal data strictly for order fulfillment, account management, communication, and site functionality—and nothing more.
Depending on how you interact with our website, the categories of data we collect include:
- Contact Details: Your name, email address, phone number, and delivery addresses.
- Account Information: Your username, account preferences, and secure login credentials (note: passwords for native accounts are cryptographically encrypted, and social logins are authenticated securely through third-party providers without storing passwords on our servers).
- Transaction Details: Items you view, add to your cart, purchase, or modify through our online shopping platform.
- Comments and Reviews: Data shown in comment or product review forms, your IP address, and browser user agent string for spam detection. An anonymized string from your email may be sent to the Gravatar service to display your profile picture upon approval.
- Technical & Usage Data (Cookies): Information regarding your interaction with the site, session states, and browser cookies.
We never obtain personal data through deception, and we do not use your information for unrelated marketing purposes without explicit consent.
2. Cookies and Login Sessions
- Login & Display Cookies: When you log in, we set up cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, screen options cookies last for a year, and selecting “Remember Me” keeps your login active for two weeks.
- Browser Testing: A temporary cookie containing no personal data is set when visiting the login page to verify if your browser accepts cookies, which is discarded when you close your browser.
- Comment Cookies: If you save your details when leaving a review or comment, cookies are stored for one year for your convenience.
3. How Your Information is Stored and Protected
- Hosting & Store Infrastructure: Our online store is built using WooCommerce (an e-commerce software platform that manages our product catalog, shopping cart, and checkout system) and is hosted securely by Hostinger.
- Data Storage Location: Personal information collected through our website is stored on servers located in the United States of America.
- Security Measures: We maintain technical and organizational safeguards to protect your data. However, no security system is entirely impenetrable, and data transmission over the internet carries inherent risks.
4. Payment Processing and Financial Security
We prioritize your financial safety. All financial and payment details (such as credit or debit card data) entered during checkout are handled securely through the HandyPay payment gateway. Complete card information is never stored directly on our website’s servers.
5. Children’s Privacy
Our services are not intended for children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of majority. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can promptly delete it.
6. Your Rights Under Jamaica’s Data Protection Act (DPA)
As a data subject under the DPA, you have legal rights regarding your personal information. You have the right to:
- Be Informed: Know whether we are processing your personal data.
- Access Your Data: Request to view a copy of the personal information we hold about you (note: if you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for validation).
- Rectification & Accuracy: Freely update, correct, or amend your personal account information directly through your account dashboard at any time to maintain accuracy.
- Deletion & Erasure: Request the deletion or removal of your personal account information by contacting us directly through our store’s contact channels.
7. Contact Us
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, wish to exercise your data subject rights, or need to request access to or deletion of your personal data, please reach out to us directly through our official store contact channels.
