This Privacy Policy explains how Asima ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, shares and protects your personal information when you visit our website or place an order. By using our website you agree to the practices described here.
Asima is a handcrafted leather footwear business based in Bangkok, Thailand, operating as a sole trader rather than a registered company. For any privacy question you can reach us at shoppingasima@gmail.com or +66 97 740 4040.
Information you give us: your name, email address, phone number, shipping and billing address, and the contents of any message you send us.
Order information: the products you buy, order value, and communications about your order.
Payment information: payments are handled by our third-party payment provider. We do not store your full card details on our servers.
Technical information: as you browse, we may collect your device type, browser, IP address and pages viewed, through cookies and similar technologies.
To process, make, ship and support your orders.
To respond to your enquiries and provide customer service.
To send order updates and, where you have agreed, marketing messages you can opt out of at any time.
To operate, secure and improve our website, and to comply with our legal obligations.
Where the law requires a legal basis (for example under the EU GDPR or Thailand’s PDPA), we rely on: performance of our contract with you to fulfil orders; your consent for marketing and non-essential cookies; and our legitimate interests in running and improving our business, protected against your rights.
We share personal information only with parties that help us run our business: our payment provider, shipping and courier partners, and email and hosting providers. Each is permitted to use your data only to provide their service to us.
We may also disclose information where required by law or to protect our rights. We never sell your personal information.
We operate internationally — our workshop is in Thailand and we ship to the Gulf — so your information may be processed outside your country of residence. Where required, we take steps to ensure your data remains protected to an appropriate standard.
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the site working (for example remembering your cart and language) and to understand how it is used. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling some may affect how the site works.
We keep your personal information only for as long as needed to fulfil the purposes described here, including meeting legal, accounting and reporting requirements, after which it is deleted or anonymised.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or port your personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent. To exercise any of these, contact us at shoppingasima@gmail.com. You also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority.
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Our website is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us data, please contact us and we will remove it.
We may update this policy from time to time; the date above shows when it was last revised. For any question about this policy or your data, contact shoppingasima@gmail.com.
