4Sharing of Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share your data with trusted third parties only in the following circumstances:
Service Providers
We work with carefully selected partners who assist in operating our business:
• Razorpay — for secure payment processing
• Courier and logistics partners — to deliver your orders (they receive your name, phone number, and delivery address)
• Cloud hosting providers — to store and serve our website data securely
Legal Requirements
We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, court order, or government authority, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you before your information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
All third parties we work with are bound by confidentiality agreements and are not permitted to use your personal data for any purpose other than the services they provide to us.
5Data Security
We take the security of your personal information seriously and implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect it against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
Measures we implement include:
• Encrypted data transmission using HTTPS/SSL across the entire website
• Passwords stored using bcrypt hashing — never in plain text
• Payment data handled exclusively by Razorpay, which is PCI-DSS compliant
• Access to personal data restricted to authorised personnel only
• Regular security reviews and updates
However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the event of a data breach that affects your rights or freedoms, we will notify you as required by applicable law.
We recommend that you:
• Use a strong, unique password for your GoFixKart account
• Keep your login credentials confidential
• Log out after each session on shared devices
6Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to:
• Maintain your account and provide our services
• Comply with legal, tax, and regulatory obligations
• Resolve disputes and enforce agreements
Typically, we retain:
• Account information: for the duration of your account and up to 3 years after closure
• Order and transaction records: for 7 years (as required by Indian tax laws)
• Communication records: for up to 2 years
• Usage and analytics data: in anonymised form, indefinitely
If you request deletion of your account and data (see Section 8), we will remove or anonymise your personal information, except where retention is required by law.
