7. Information Security & Data Retention

We maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard personal information against loss, unauthorized access, destruction, or disclosure.

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy legal, tax, accounting and reporting requirements, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements. Order records are typically retained for the period required by tax law; marketing data is retained until you unsubscribe or your account becomes inactive.

  • Right to Appeal: If we decline your request, you may appeal by replying to our decision; we will respond in writing with the reasons.

How to exercise your rights: Email customerservice@drinkpura.com with the subject line "Privacy Request".
