When you make a purchase at SSMart, we collect the following data:
Transaction Details: Date, time, amount, and items purchased.
Payment Information: Digital payment unique identifiers (e.g., last four digits of a card, UPI transaction IDs) used by third-party payment processors. We do not store full credit card or debit card details.
1.2 Voluntary Information
We may collect information you voluntarily provide, such as:
Contact Information: Name, phone number, or email address (e.g., when signing up for a promotional offer, receiving an e-receipt, or contacting customer service).
Feedback: Comments or suggestions you provide regarding our store or products.
1.3 Website/Digital Information (If Applicable)
If SSMart maintains a website or uses local WiFi, we may collect basic usage data (e.g., browser type, IP address) via standard web server logs to improve site functionality, but this data is generally anonymous.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information collected for the following primary purposes:
Process Transactions: To complete your purchase and provide you with a receipt (physical or electronic).
Customer Service: To respond to your inquiries, address complaints, and manage returns/exchanges efficiently.

3. Sharing Your Information
We take great care to ensure your personal information is not sold or improperly disclosed. We only share your information with third parties in the following limited circumstances:
Payment Processors: We share necessary transaction data with secure, trusted payment gateway service providers to process digital payments (e.g., card swipes, UPI transactions).
Legal Compliance: When required by law or necessary to respond to a legal process (e.g., a court order or government request).
Service Providers: We may use local IT or accounting services who require access to transaction data solely for the purpose of helping us run our business.
4. Data Security
We implement reasonable security measures, both physical and electronic, to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. This includes securing physical transaction records and using secure, encrypted terminals for digital payments.
5. Customer Choices
E-Receipts/Marketing: If you provide your contact information for an e-receipt or marketing, you can always choose to opt-out of future electronic communications by informing our customer service desk.
Access: You have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you.
