8. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

SHELFSMART LIMITED is an incorporated company based proudly in New Zealand, with operational facilities located at 52e Hayton Road, Wigram, Christchurch 8042.

Specifically, we retain your account information for the entire active lifetime of your customer profile to facilitate order tracking and loyalty history. We retain payment-associated transaction data, fiscal sales receipts, customs export logs, and official accounting balance sheets for a mandatory minimum period dictated by New Zealand corporate law and national inland revenue tax statutes. Once the underlying commercial, legal, or fraud protection mandate has officially expired, your data is completely purged, heavily anonymized, or systematically destroyed using secure electronic destruction mechanisms.

11. DATA SECURITY AND CYBER DEFENSE INITIATIVES

The security of your personal data is a critical cornerstone of our corporate operations.

Strict Access Control Governance: Internal access to your personal identifiers is restricted strictly to authorized staff members who have a verified business reason to view it (e.g., logistics managers or customer support technicians).

Please be advised, however, that no method of electronic data transmission over the public internet or protocol of computerized data storage can be completely 100% secure. While we strive to utilize industry-standard practices to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute absolute security against state-sponsored actors or advanced zero-day cyber threats.

12. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY INFRASTRUCTURE

Another core priority for SHELFSMART LIMITED is adding protective barriers for children utilizing the global internet. We strongly encourage parents, legal guardians, and educators to observe, participate in, monitor, and guide their children’s online browsing habits.

www.shelfsmartltd.com does not knowingly collect, compile, or target any actionable Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of thirteen (13) (or under the applicable age of digital majority in your respective regional jurisdiction). If you strongly suspect or possess definitive proof that your child has inadvertently provided personal identification info on our e-commerce platform, we strongly urge you to contact us immediately via email at silverth@shelfsmartltd.com or call our hotline at +64 (3) 3415474.
