Newsletter & Brevo
Newsletter sign-ups are processed through Brevo. Your email address, consent status and engagement information may be stored by Brevo for this purpose. Double opt-in is used where enabled, and every marketing email should provide an unsubscribe option.
Sharing & international processing
We may share only necessary information with service providers supporting hosting, payments, delivery, email, security and professional advice. Some providers may process data outside your country under appropriate safeguards. HOQBA does not sell personal information.
Retention & security
Information is retained only for as long as needed for the purpose collected, including accounting, warranty, dispute and legal requirements. We use reasonable organisational and technical measures, but no online system can be guaranteed completely secure.
