2. How We Use Your Information

​

At Mmogeng, we collect personal and non-personal information to provide you with a smooth, secure, and personalized shopping experience. Transparency is important to us, so this section explains exactly how and why we use the information you share with us.

​

a. Processing and Fulfilling Your Orders

When you place an order on our website, we collect essential details like your name, shipping address, billing address, email address, phone number (if provided), and payment information. These details are used to:

  • Verify and confirm your order.

  • Process your payment securely through trusted third-party payment processors (such as Stripe, PayPal, or other services offered on our platform). We do not store or have direct access to your full payment information.

  • Share relevant information with our third-party production and fulfillment partners, primarily Printful. Printful uses this information to produce your ordered products and ensure they are shipped directly to the address you provided. Specifically, they receive your name, shipping address, product selection, and order details.

Printful operates through a network of trusted manufacturing partners worldwide. This allows us to fulfill orders globally, minimizing shipping times and production delays. Your information is only shared with the specific manufacturing partner responsible for producing and delivering your order, ensuring efficient service and data minimization.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any unrelated third parties for commercial purposes. It is strictly used to complete and manage your transaction and ensure your order is processed as seamlessly as possible.

​

b. Communicating Order Updates and Confirmations

Once you’ve placed an order, we use the email address you provided to:

  • Notify you about the status of your order. For example, when your product moves from production to shipping, you will receive updates.

  • Provide shipment tracking information (when available). This allows you to monitor your delivery in real-time.

  • Inform you about any issues, delays, or modifications related to your order. If for any reason your order cannot be fulfilled (e.g., supply chain issues or unforeseen production problems), we will notify you promptly and offer alternative solutions, such as a refund or product substitution.

Effective communication ensures transparency and builds trust, and we strive to keep you informed every step of the way.

In addition, we may retain records of previous interactions and correspondence. This helps us provide continuity in service, so you don’t need to repeat information when reaching out multiple times. However, this data is stored securely and only accessible to authorized personnel.

​

d. Sending Marketing Emails, Special Offers, or Product Updates (Only if You Opt In)

At Mmogeng, we value your privacy and respect your communication preferences. You will only receive marketing communications if you have explicitly opted in to subscribe to our newsletter, updates, or promotional emails.

Once unsubscribed, you will no longer receive promotional content but will still receive essential transactional emails (order confirmations, shipping updates, etc.).

​

e. Improving and Personalizing Your Website Experience

We collect certain non-personal data, such as your browser type, device type, IP address, referring pages, and how long you spend on our site. We also use cookies and similar tracking technologies. This data allows us to:

  • Understand how visitors interact with our website.
    We analyze user behavior to identify trends, such as which pages are most visited, which products are most viewed, and where visitors may drop off during the shopping process. This helps us improve site navigation, product selection, and overall user experience.

  • Provide personalized content and recommendations.
    For returning visitors, we may highlight previously viewed products, suggest related products, or display tailored content based on browsing behavior.

  • Optimize website performance.
    Technical data helps us ensure the website loads quickly, functions properly on various devices, and remains secure.

  • Conduct A/B testing and usability testing.
    This allows us to test different website layouts, product page designs, or promotional banners to see what works best for our customers.

All data used for personalization and analytics is anonymized and aggregated whenever possible, ensuring your individual privacy is protected while still allowing us to enhance your experience.

​

f. Complying with Legal Obligations

We are committed to complying with all applicable laws and regulations related to data protection and privacy. In certain situations, we may be required to use or disclose your information to:

  • Meet legal or regulatory requirements.

3. Order Fulfillment via Printful

At Mmogeng, delivering high-quality products to customers worldwide in an efficient, reliable, and ethical manner is central to our business. To achieve this, we utilize Printful, a trusted third-party print-on-demand platform. This section outlines how we work with Printful to process and fulfill your orders, how your personal information is shared and protected during this process, and how we ensure compliance with international privacy regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other relevant frameworks.

​

What is Printful and Why We Use It

Printiful is a leading print-on-demand service that connects e-commerce businesses like Mmogeng with a network of reputable manufacturers and print providers located around the world. When you place an order for a physical product on our website—whether it’s apparel, accessories, or any branded item—the item is not pre-made or stored in a warehouse. Instead, it is produced on-demand, specifically for you, after the order is confirmed.

Using Printful allows us to:

  • Offer a wider variety of unique, customizable products without maintaining large inventories.

  • Reduce waste and environmental impact by avoiding overproduction.

  • Efficiently serve customers in multiple countries by utilizing Printful’s extensive global network of manufacturers and shipping partners.

  • Keep costs manageable, ensuring fair pricing and fast production times.

However, partnering with a third-party platform like Printful requires that we share certain personal details necessary to fulfill your order, which we handle with care and in accordance with all applicable privacy regulations.

​

 Information Shared with Printful

To complete the production and shipment of your purchased items, we need to share specific personal data with Printful and its affiliated manufacturing partners. The information we share includes:

  • Your full name: To label and identify your order.

  • Shipping address: Including your street address, city, postal/ZIP code, country, and any special delivery instructions. This information is essential for ensuring your package reaches you promptly.

  • Product details: The specific products you ordered, such as size, color, design customization, quantity, and order number.

  • Billing information (limited scope): Only to the extent required to confirm payment has been processed; no full payment details (such as credit card numbers) are ever shared with Printful

We do NOT share sensitive information such as your payment credentials (credit card numbers, CVV codes) or unrelated personal identifiers. Payment processing is handled separately via secure, PCI-compliant gateways.

The information shared is limited to what is strictly necessary for order fulfillment, ensuring data minimization principles are upheld.

​

 How Printful Uses Your Information

Printify acts as a data processor in this scenario. The role of Printful and its production partners is to:

  • Receive your order details from Mmogeng securely.

  • Manufacture the specific product(s) you purchased, based on the product specifications and order information provided.

  • Package and label your product using the shipping information you supplied.

  • Arrange for shipment using trusted logistics and courier services.

  • Provide shipment tracking details, which are relayed back to Mmogeng and shared with you.

Printify does not use your personal data for any marketing, sales, profiling, or unrelated purposes. Your data is strictly used to ensure your order is produced and delivered as expected.

​

 Data Security Measures Implemented by Printful

We take your data security seriously and only partner with service providers who adhere to high standards of privacy protection.

Printful has implemented various security measures, including:

  • Encryption protocols: Ensuring that any data transmitted between Mmogeng, Printful, and their manufacturing network is encrypted and protected against interception.

  • Access controls: Limiting access to your information only to personnel or systems involved directly in fulfilling your order.

  • Data retention policies: Retaining your information only for as long as is necessary to complete the fulfillment process and meet legal or accounting requirements.

As part of our operations, certain aspects of our business—such as product fulfillment, payment processing, website hosting, and email communications—involve working with third-party partners located in various countries.

1. Why International Data Transfers Are Necessary

In order to provide you with seamless service worldwide, we engage a number of trusted service providers and partners who are located in different countries. Examples of when your personal data may be transferred internationally include:

​

a) Order Fulfillment with Printful

Our physical products are produced and shipped through Printful’s print-on-demand manufacturers. Depending on your shipping address and the specific product ordered, Printful may choose a production partner located closest to you to minimize delivery time and environmental impact. This means:

  • Your name, shipping address, and order details may be shared with production facilities located in countries outside your home country.

​

b) Payment Processing

We use secure, globally recognized payment processors like iKhokha, Stripe, PayPal, and other regional gateways. These processors may process transactions through servers and financial institutions in multiple jurisdictions, depending on where you’re located and which payment method you use.

​

c) Website Hosting and IT Infrastructure

Our website, officialmmogeng.com, may be hosted on servers located in various regions, such as the United States, the European Union, or other locations, depending on our hosting provider's infrastructure. This enables us to provide fast, reliable service to all customers worldwide.

​

If you opt in to receive newsletters or promotional content, your contact information (such as your email address) may be processed by third-party email service providers, which may operate globally with servers in different locations.

​

2. Compliance with Data Protection Laws

We are committed to handling your personal information responsibly and in compliance with all applicable data protection laws, especially when it comes to cross-border data transfers. Key regulations we comply with include:

​

a) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

For customers residing in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), or Switzerland, the GDPR requires that personal data transferred outside of these regions be adequately protected.

To meet these requirements, we:

  • Only transfer personal data to countries that offer an adequate level of data protection, as recognized by the European Commission.

  • If the receiving country does not have an adequacy decision, we use Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), which are legally binding contracts approved by the European Commission to ensure your personal data is treated securely.

  • In specific cases, rely on your explicit consent (for example, when you subscribe to certain services or communications knowing they involve international partners).

​

b) California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) & Other US Privacy Laws

For customers located in California and other US jurisdictions with specific data privacy laws, we comply with relevant requirements concerning the collection, sharing, and protection of personal data, including restrictions on cross-border data sharing.

​

c) Other Regional Privacy Frameworks

We also recognize and comply with other national and regional privacy frameworks, including:

  • Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) in Canada

  • Brazil’s Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD)

  • Australia’s Privacy Act

  • Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Privacy Framework

​

3. Legal Safeguards and Security Measures for International Transfers

To protect your personal data during international transfers, we implement a range of robust legal, technical, and organizational safeguards, including:

​

a) Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs)

As mentioned, when we transfer your personal data to countries outside the EEA/UK without an adequacy decision, we enter into Standard Contractual Clauses with the recipient. These clauses:

  • Legally bind the recipient to protect your data.

  • Ensure your rights and freedoms under the GDPR are maintained.

  • Require recipients to implement security measures, restrict data use, and facilitate data subject rights.

​

b) Data Processing Agreements (DPAs)

All third-party service providers that process your data on our behalf (such as Printful, payment processors, email marketing platforms, and hosting services) are contractually obligated to adhere to strict data protection standards through Data Processing Agreements.

These agreements ensure:

  • Data is only processed for specified purposes.

  • Personal data is not used for unauthorized purposes.

  • Adequate security measures are in place to prevent data breaches.

​

c) Encryption and Secure Data Transmission

We use SSL/TLS encryption and other security protocols to ensure any data transmitted between you, our website, and our partners is protected from interception or unauthorized access.

​

d) Access Controls

We limit access to your personal information to only those employees, contractors, and partners who need the information to perform essential services. All personnel are bound by confidentiality agreements and trained in data protection practices.

​

4. How Long Is Data Retained During International Transfers?

Personal data transferred internationally is retained only as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, such as:

  • Completing your order

  • Processing payments

  • Communicating updates

  • Complying with legal obligations

Once the purpose has been fulfilled, your personal data is securely deleted or anonymized in compliance with applicable data retention regulations.

​

5. Your Rights Related to International Transfers

Regardless of where your data is transferred or processed, your rights as a data subject remain protected. These rights include:

​

a) Right to Access

You can request information about:

  • Whether your personal data is transferred internationally.

Please note that objecting to essential data transfers (like order fulfillment) may limit our ability to provide products or services to you.

9. Data Security Policy

At Mmogeng, we recognize the paramount importance of safeguarding your personal information. We are committed to implementing comprehensive technical and organizational measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, it's essential to acknowledge that no method of online transmission or storage is entirely secure. This policy outlines our data security practices, the measures we have in place, and the limitations inherent in digital data protection.

​

1. Technical Measures

To protect your personal data, we employ a variety of technical safeguards:

  • Encryption: We utilize robust encryption protocols to protect data both in transit and at rest. This ensures that your information is rendered unreadable to unauthorized individuals during transmission over networks and when stored on our servers. 

  • Access Controls: Strict access controls are enforced to ensure that only authorized personnel can access sensitive data. This includes the implementation of multi-factor authentication (MFA) and role-based access controls to minimize potential unauthorized access. 

  • Network Security: We maintain firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and regular network monitoring to prevent and detect unauthorized access attempts.

  • Regular Security Assessments: Our systems undergo continuous security assessments, including vulnerability scans and penetration testing, to identify and address potential security weaknesses.

​

2. Organizational Measures

Beyond technical safeguards, we have established organizational protocols to enhance data security:

  • Data Protection Policies: Comprehensive data protection policies are in place to guide our staff in handling personal data securely and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

  • Employee Training: Regular training programs are conducted to ensure that all employees understand data protection principles and are aware of their responsibilities in safeguarding personal information.

  • Incident Response Planning: We have developed and maintain an incident response plan to promptly address any data breaches or security incidents, minimizing potential harm and ensuring timely communication with affected individuals.

​

3. Data Retention and Disposal

We adhere to data minimization principles, retaining personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or as required by law. Secure disposal methods, such as data wiping and physical destruction, are employed to ensure that personal data is irretrievably deleted when no longer needed.

​

4. Third-Party Partner Security

When engaging third-party service providers who may process personal data on our behalf, we conduct thorough due diligence to ensure they implement adequate data protection measures. Contracts with these partners include specific data protection clauses to ensure compliance with our security standards and legal obligations.

​

5. Limitations of Security Guarantees

While we strive to protect your personal data through rigorous security measures, it's important to recognize that no security system is impenetrable. Factors beyond our control, such as sophisticated cyber-attacks or unforeseen vulnerabilities, may compromise data security. Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security of your information. We encourage you to take proactive steps in protecting your data, such as using strong passwords and being cautious of phishing attempts.

​

6. Continuous Improvement

We are committed to continuously enhancing our data security practices. This involves staying informed about emerging security threats, adopting industry best practices, and regularly reviewing and updating our security measures to adapt to evolving risks.

​

7. Compliance with Legal and Regulatory Requirements

Our data security practices are designed to comply with applicable data protection laws and regulations, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other relevant legislation. We regularly review our compliance posture and make necessary adjustments to align with legal requirements and industry standards.

​

8. User Responsibilities

While we implement extensive measures to protect your data, your role in maintaining security is also crucial. We recommend that you:

  • Use Strong Passwords: Create complex passwords combining letters, numbers, and symbols, and avoid reusing passwords across different platforms.

  • Be Vigilant: Stay alert to potential phishing scams and avoid clicking on suspicious links or downloading attachments from unknown sources.

  • Secure Your Devices: Ensure that your devices are protected with up-to-date antivirus software and that you apply security patches promptly.
