How and Why Do We Collect and Hold Your Personal Information?
We have structured our website so that, in general, you can visit our site without identifying yourself or revealing any personal information. You do not have to provide personal information to access our website.
In some circumstances, we may need to collect your personal information to provide you with Services. In some cases, if you do not provide the required personal information, then:
you may not be able to access some of the areas and facilities of our website; or
we may not be able to provide you with an account to utilise our Services or otherwise carry out your instructions.
If you choose to provide us with personal information, we will only collect, store, use or disclose that information in accordance with this privacy policy and applicable privacy laws.
Our usual practice is to collect personal information directly from you, for instance when you:
download or use our Maqasa app;

We may collect aggregated information by using cookies. Cookies are unique identification numbers like tags that are placed on the browser of internet users. The cookies do not in themselves identify users personally, but may link back to a database record about them. We may use cookies to track any aspect of our site or services.
We may use services such as Google Analytics, which will issue cookies from their own servers and which will be able to track website visitors throughout relevant websites. We do not control how those cookies are issued, or the data that they store.
We may use "web beacons" (electronic images also known as pixel tags or clear gifs) to recognise a cookie on your computer when you view or act upon a web page, an advertisement that we have placed on a third party web page, or an email or other electronic communication that we have sent.
We may also use Local Shared Objects, sometimes referred to as "Flash" cookies. Use of Local Shared Objects can help deter, detect and prevent fraud and can support our Online Services.
The personal information we collect may include information about people who are employees, directors or principals of yours. We ask you to help us to make sure that these people are aware that our arrangements with you may involve collection of personal information about them.

However, we accept no responsibility for any loss, misuse, unauthorised access or disclosure, alteration or destruction of personal information which you submit to us.
If you request for us to do so, we will note your customer record as ‘deleted’, which means it will not be used for any purpose (such as marketing). However your customer name and number may still remain in our database as it will be attached to historical records and transactions.
Ensure you logout when you have finished utilising our website or other Services especially if you accessed them from a shared computer.
