Please note that unsubscribing from promotional communications does not necessarily prevent us from sending non-marketing communications that may be necessary to respond to an enquiry, process a request, provide a requested service, or comply with law.

We may also retain a limited suppression record after an unsubscribe request so that we know not to add the address back to an applicable mailing list inadvertently.

Africa.Luxury does not sell its Newsroom subscriber email list as a commercial mailing database.

We may, however, use service providers to process subscriber information on our behalf where necessary to provide email, hosting, analytics, security, and related services.

Such service-provider access does not constitute the sale of our subscriber list.

14. SERVICE PROVIDERS

Where third parties process personal information on our behalf, we seek to use providers appropriate to the nature of the services being provided.

Service providers may only require access to information necessary to perform their functions.

However, some third-party providers may independently determine aspects of their processing and may maintain their own privacy policies.


PART VII — INTERNATIONAL DATA PROCESSING

15. CROSS-BORDER PROCESSING

The Internet and modern digital services operate internationally.

Some of our hosting, analytics, email, security, cloud, or technology providers may operate infrastructure outside Ghana.
