Buyer, seller and Xonbay roles

Xonbay may act as a data controller for platform accounts, security, analytics, support and marketplace operations. A seller may independently act as a controller for customer data it uses to fulfil orders, provide support, issue warranties, maintain legally required records or conduct its own permitted marketing.

Where Xonbay processes personal data solely on a merchant’s documented instructions, the Data Processing Agreement may apply.

  6. With regulators, courts or law-enforcement bodies where legally required.
  7. With other parties when the user directs or validly consents to the sharing.
Section 7

International transfers

Some service providers may process information outside Ghana. Xonbay should evaluate transfer requirements and use appropriate contractual, organisational and technical safeguards where required.

Section 8

Data retention

Xonbay retains personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the stated purposes, contractual obligations, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, security, tax, accounting and legal requirements.

Add a retention schedule

Children’s privacy

Xonbay is not intended for children to operate businesses or enter binding commercial arrangements without appropriate adult authorisation. Final age limits and parental-consent rules should be confirmed through legal review.
