At AMENA AFRICA Limited (“we,” “us,” or “our”), your privacy is paramount. This consent form outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal data when you interact with our website, [www.amena-africa.com](https://amena-africa.com/).

Data Collection
We collect two categories of data: personal and non-personal.
– Personal Information includes details voluntarily provided by you, such as your name, email address, company name, job title, and contact information. This occurs when you submit inquiries via our contact forms, register for newsletters, or engage with our B2B matchmaking services.
– Non-Personal Information includes technical data like your IP address, browser type, device identifiers, and cookies. These help us analyze website traffic, optimize performance, and enhance user experience. Cookies are stored for up to one year unless manually deleted, and you may adjust browser settings to limit their use.
Purpose of Data Use
Your data enables us to deliver tailored services and improve your experience. Specifically:
– Service Delivery: To respond to inquiries, facilitate trade partnerships, and provide logistics support as part of our B2B solutions.
– Website Optimization: Aggregated analytics (e.g., page views, session duration) guide improvements to site functionality and content relevance.
– Marketing: With your consent, we may send updates about industry insights, investment opportunities in sectors like agriculture, mining, or energy, and AMENA AFRICA’s initiatives across Africa.
– Legal Compliance: Data may be used to prevent fraud, resolve disputes, or comply with court orders.
Data Sharing and Third Parties

– Service Providers: Trusted third parties (e.g., logistics partners, payment processors) assist in delivering our services. These entities are contractually bound to uphold confidentiality and data protection standards.
