What About Cookies and Other Identifiers?

To enable our systems to recognize your browser or device and to provide and improve BQ Fresh Services, we use cookies and other identifiers.

Does BQ Fresh Share User Data (Customer Personal Information)?

Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of selling our customers’ personal information to others. We share user data or customers’ personal information only as described below:

  • Transactions involving Third Parties: We make available to you services, products, applications, or skills provided by third parties for use on or through BQ Fresh Services.
  • Third-Party Service Providers: We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders for products or services, delivering packages, sending e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), and providing customer service. These third-party service providers have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.

What About Advertising?

  • Third-Party Advertisers and Links to Other Websites: BQ Fresh Services may include third-party advertising and links to other websites and apps. Third-party advertising partners may collect information about you when you interact with their content, advertising, and services.
  • Use of Third-Party Advertising Services: We provide ad companies with information that allows them to serve you with more useful and relevant BQ Fresh ads and to measure their effectiveness. We never share your name or other information that directly identifies you when we do this. Instead, we use an advertising identifier like a cookie or other device identifier. For example, if you have already downloaded one of our apps, we will share your advertising identifier and data about that event so that you will not be served an ad to download the app again.

What Information Can I Access?

You can access your information, including your name, address, profile information, general settings, and order history in the “Your Account” section of the website.

Are Children Allowed to Use BQ Fresh Services?

BQ Fresh does not sell products for purchase by children. We sell children’s products for purchase by adults.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 without the consent of the child’s parent or guardian.

We do not offer products and services which are restricted by law including, but not limited to, such as, heavy machinery, heavy vehicles, weapons, alcoholic drinks, pesticides and other chemicals that require approval from authorities.

Conditions of Use, Notices, and Revisions

If you choose to use BQ Fresh Services, your use and any dispute over privacy is subject to this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service, including limitations on damages, resolution of disputes, and application of the law of the Kingdom of Bahrain. If you have any concern about privacy at BQ Fresh, please contact us with a thorough description, and we will try to resolve it.

 

Our business changes constantly, and our Privacy Policy will change also. You should check our websites frequently to see recent changes. Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy Policy applies to all information that we have about you and your account. We stand behind the promises we make, however, and will never materially change our policies and practices to make them less protective of customer information collected in the past without the consent of affected customers.
