Information We Collect
When you create an account or place an order with AL-NAHL Organics, we collect certain personal information necessary to process and deliver your order. This includes your full name, phone number, and delivery address. We also collect your email address if you provide it during registration. When you make a payment via EasyPaisa, we record your EasyPaisa transaction ID and sender phone number solely to verify the payment — we do not store wallet credentials or PIN numbers. We may also automatically collect technical information such as your device type, browser, and approximate location (city level) when you browse our website. This helps us improve our website performance and user experience.
How We Use Your Information
We use your personal information strictly for fulfilling your orders and providing customer support. Your name, phone number, and address are shared with our delivery riders solely to complete your delivery. Your phone number may be used to send order status updates via WhatsApp or SMS. We do not use your data for targeted advertising. We may use anonymised, aggregated data (e.g., most popular products by area of Karachi) to improve our product range and delivery operations. If you have opted in to our newsletter, we may send occasional promotional messages — you can unsubscribe at any time by replying "STOP" to any message.
Data Storage & Security
Your data is stored on secure servers protected by industry-standard encryption (SSL/TLS). Passwords are hashed using bcrypt and are never stored in plain text. Profile photos are stored on our server with restricted access. We retain your order data for a minimum of 3 years for legal and accounting compliance. You may request deletion of your account and personal data at any time (see Your Rights below), after which we retain only anonymised transaction records required by law. While we take every reasonable precaution to secure your data, no internet transmission is 100% secure. We encourage you to use a strong, unique password for your account.
Cookies & Sessions
We use PHP session cookies to keep you logged in during your visit. These cookies expire when you close your browser or log out — we do not use persistent tracking cookies for advertising. We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any other third-party tracking script on our website. The only cookies we set are strictly necessary for the website to function: session management, CSRF security tokens, and cart data. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but this will prevent you from logging in or completing purchases.
