Where permitted by applicable law, we may send offers, product updates and other marketing communications.

Opting out of marketing does not prevent necessary communications about orders, payments, deliveries, returns, account security or customer support.
10. International Transfers
Some cloud, technology, payment, analytics, communications or other service providers may process information outside the United Arab Emirates. Where applicable, we take reasonable measures and use appropriate safeguards for cross-border processing in accordance with applicable UAE data-protection requirements.
11. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including fulfilment, account management, support, warranties, returns, accounting, taxation, fraud prevention, dispute resolution and legal compliance.

12. How We Protect Your Information
We use reasonable administrative, technical and organisational safeguards intended to protect personal information from unauthorised access, disclosure, accidental loss, misuse, alteration or destruction. No internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential. If you believe your OfficeShark® account or personal information may have been compromised, contact us promptly.

Where a purchase is made on behalf of a company, OfficeShark® may process business contact information, company name, billing information, VAT/TRN details, purchase orders, delivery locations and transaction history.

If we become aware of a personal-data security incident, we will assess it and take reasonable steps to contain and investigate the incident, reduce potential harm, secure affected systems and comply with applicable notification or reporting obligations.
18. Do-Not-Track and Browser Privacy Signals
Web browsers and devices may offer privacy controls or “Do Not Track” signals. Because there is not always a uniform industry standard for interpreting such signals, our Website may not respond to every browser-based tracking signal. You can control many tracking technologies through available cookie settings and your browser settings.
