2. Purposes of Data Processing
Cargo Smok processes your personal data for the following legitimate reasons:
Order Fulfillment and Contractual Obligations
To process and deliver your orders, manage payments, and collect money owed to us. This is necessary for the performance of a contract with you. This involves sharing information with logistics partners and financial institutions to ensure the physical arrival of your goods and the verification of transaction legitimacy.

To protect our website and business, including troubleshooting, data analysis, testing, system maintenance, support, reporting, and hosting of data. We use automated systems to detect and prevent fraudulent transactions, ensuring a safe shopping environment for all users.
3. Sharing Data with Third Parties
We do not sell your personal data to third parties. However, we share your data with selected third parties to facilitate our services:
- Logistics and Delivery Providers: We share your name, address, and phone number with our shipping partners to ensure your products are delivered accurately and on time.
- Payment Processors: We use secure, encrypted payment gateways. Your financial information is handled directly by these providers; Cargo Smok does not store full credit card numbers on our internal servers.
- Service Providers: We may use third-party companies to manage website analytics, email distribution, and technical infrastructure. These parties are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it only for the specified tasks.
- Legal Compliance: We may disclose information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities.
4. Data Retention and Security
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, and the applicable legal requirements.
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed. We limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know.

Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data:
- Request access to your personal data, enabling you to receive a copy of the information we hold about you.
- Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you, allowing you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data corrected.
- Request erasure of your personal information where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it.
- Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object.
