• billing and delivery address;
• order and purchase information;
• communications with Green Square;
• information required to process payments and orders;

Green Square should not ordinarily require customers to provide detailed medical information when purchasing general wellness products.
WHY WE PROCESS YOUR INFORMATION
We may process personal information where reasonably necessary to:
• process and fulfil orders;
• arrange courier deliveries;
• communicate regarding an order;
• provide customer service;
• maintain appropriate business and accounting records;
• prevent fraud or misuse;
• comply with legal obligations;

ONLINE ORDERS
When you place an online order, certain information is necessary for Green Square to process payment, prepare the order and arrange delivery.
Relevant information may be shared with service providers where reasonably necessary to complete the transaction, including payment providers, website providers and courier companies.
WHATSAPP & EMAIL
Customers who contact Green Square through WhatsApp, email, social media or other electronic channels acknowledge that their contact details and correspondence may be processed where reasonably necessary to respond to their enquiry or provide requested services.
MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS
Green Square may send promotional or marketing communications only where permitted under applicable law.
Where consent is required, customers should be given an appropriate opportunity to provide that consent.
Customers may request that Green Square stop sending electronic marketing communications at any time.
Marketing consent is not a condition of purchasing products from Green Square unless communication is necessary for completing or servicing the transaction itself.
COMPETITIONS & PROMOTIONS
Where Green Square runs a competition or promotion, information collected for entry will be processed for administering that competition.
If Green Square also wishes to use an entrant's details for future marketing, this should be made clear and handled in accordance with applicable direct-marketing and privacy requirements.

Green Square does not sell customers' personal information.
Personal information may be shared with third parties where reasonably necessary to operate our business or fulfil an order, including:
• courier and delivery companies;
• payment processors;
• website and technology providers;
• accounting or professional service providers; and
• authorities where disclosure is legally required.
Third parties should receive only information reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.
SECURITY
Green Square takes reasonable measures to safeguard personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or destruction.
No electronic storage or transmission method is completely risk-free, and absolute security cannot be guaranteed.
RETENTION
Personal information will be retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected or for a period required by applicable law, accounting requirements or legitimate business obligations.
YOUR RIGHTS
Subject to POPIA and other applicable legislation, you may have rights relating to your personal information, including requesting access to certain information held about you, requesting correction of inaccurate information and objecting to certain processing.
You may also request that Green Square stop sending you direct electronic marketing communications.
