The Ouarzart Privacy Mandate: Safeguarding Your Sanctuary
At Ouarzart, we believe your home is your private sanctuary a curated space reflecting your history and your taste. We hold the same reverence for your personal information. We treat your data with the meticulous care a master artisan gives to a hand-etched copper tray: with a steady hand, an eye for detail, and an unwavering commitment to its integrity.
As a U.S.-based gateway to Moroccan craft, we adhere to the highest standards of digital privacy to ensure your journey from discovery to delivery is secure and serene.
01. The Essentials of Connection (Data Collection)
To bridge the thousands of miles between a Moroccan workshop and an American home, we collect only the vital details required to fulfill our promise to you. When you choose a Zanafi rug or a set of hand-painted pottery, we request:
Identity & Destination: Your name and shipping address so your treasures find their way to your door.
The Digital Thread: Your email address, allowing us to send real-time tracking updates and assembly guides for your etched wood furniture.
Minimalism by Design: We never ask for extraneous information. We only gather what is strictly necessary to transition our crafts from our hands to yours.
02. How We Honor Your Information
Your data is never a commodity; it is a trust. We use your details exclusively to enhance your experience with Ouarzart:
Fulfillment: Orchestrating the complex logistics of moving heavy kilims and fragile ceramics across borders.
Curation: If you’ve invited us into your inbox, we share the stories behind our new arrivals and the artisans who create them.
The No-Sale Guarantee: We do not sell, rent, or trade your “digital footprint” to third-party marketers. Your information stays within the Ouarzart family, used solely to deepen your connection to the craft.
03. The Digital Vault (Security & Encryption)
Protecting your financial peace of mind is our highest priority. We utilize world-class, industry-standard encryption the digital equivalent of a heavy brass lock on a cedarwood chest.
Whether you are completing your purchase via credit card or a digital wallet, your payment details are processed through secure gateways that meet rigorous PCI-compliance standards. We never see, nor do we store, your full credit card numbers on our servers.
04. Digital Tokens of Hospitality (Cookies)
Our website uses “cookies” small, sophisticated digital notes to recognize you as a returning collector. These help our site “breathe” easier, remembering what you’ve tucked into your cart and which leather pouf colors you were comparing.
As the master of your own digital riad, you are always welcome to disable these in your browser settings. Just be aware that doing so may make your navigation feel a bit more “forgetful,” requiring you to re-select your preferences upon each visit.
05. Your Sovereignty: Rights and Voice
You remain the absolute master of your own data. In alignment with modern privacy expectations, you have the right to:
Access & Portability: Request a copy of the information we hold.
The “Clean Slate”: Ask us to “sweep away” your data entirely from our systems.
Instant Updates: Unsubscribe from our journal or update your sanctuary’s address with a single click or a quick note to our support team.
06. An Evolving Pattern
Just as the motifs in a Boucherouite weave may shift with the artisan’s inspiration, our digital landscape evolves. We may gently update this policy to incorporate stronger protections or reflect new legal standards. The most current version will always be anchored here clear, transparent, and easy to read ensuring there are never any surprises in our shared journey.
