Where required, we seek to apply reasonable safeguards and operational controls for cross-border data handling.

Because international ecommerce, payment processing, hosting, logistics, and security tools are often inherently cross-border, you understand that your information may be transferred internationally as part of using our services.

We use reasonable technical, administrative, and organizational safeguards to protect information, which may include:

22. Children’s Privacy

SHUAFAY’s services are not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly seek to collect personal information directly from children in that age group.

Where higher minimum ages apply under local law, those standards may also apply.

Our websites may include links to or integrations with third-party websites, tools, social platforms, payment systems, plugins, embedded content, or services.

We are not responsible for the privacy, data handling, content, or security practices of third parties that we do not control.

We encourage users to review third-party privacy policies independently.


24. Business Transfers, Restructuring & Corporate Changes

In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, asset transfer, investment event, corporate reorganization, or sale of part of our business, relevant information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law and appropriate confidentiality or continuity protections where feasible.


25. Legal Requests, Compliance & Protection of Rights

We may use or disclose information where reasonably necessary to:

  • comply with law, regulation, court order, or legal process

For example, customers should avoid unnecessarily sending:

  • government ID numbers

  • full payment card details outside secure payment pages

  • highly confidential corporate data

  • unnecessary biometric or personal identity material

If such information is sent voluntarily without request, our handling may be limited by operational realities and system design.
