This policy also describes other important topics relating to your privacy.

INFORMATION COLLECTED

Matumaini Kenya Corp will only collect personally identifiable information (such as name, title, company name, address, telephone number, or email address) that you voluntarily provide through our website or email correspondence. Our host web server tracks and collects general information about the visits to our Site. While IP addresses (the Internet address of a computer) are logged to track a user’s session, the user remains anonymous. We analyze this data for specific trends and statistics, such as which parts of our Site users visit, how long they spend there, the visitors’ domain names, and what states or countries those requests come from. We do not link your IP addresses to anything personally identifiable to you. We will collect general information (such as the type of browser you use and the files you request) to improve our website and better meet your needs.

Matumaini Kenya Corp also requests and collects personal information from our customers at various Site locations and instances, including, but not limited to, when you make a purchase, communicate with us via social media, write a product review, participate in events, contests, or promotions, contact our customer care team, or post other customer-generated content to this Site. These are currently the primary ways which we gather information; however, we may also collect data through other channels in the future. The types of personal information we may collect from you can vary according to the method through which it was attained.

PERSONAL INFORMATION PROVIDED

We receive and store any information you knowingly provide to us, such as:

PURPOSE OF COLLECTION

Matumaini Kenya Corp offers various products and services to our customers and also strives to meet the needs of our customers. We use your Personal Information for internal purposes such as tracking your order, analyzing your preferences, and noting trends and statistics. To do this effectively, we need to collect certain Personal Information.

CONSENT OF COLLECTION

All Personal Information we collect from you requires your consent, for example, opening an account, purchasing and delivering of products, special offers, etc. We may request your consent from time to time to take part in improved product performance or for marketing purposes that we think will be useful to you. However, unless you are informed otherwise, the Personal Information we hold is for establishing and managing our business and customer relationship with you. Sensitive information is subject to greater restrictions and governed by law.

By communicating with Matumaini Kenya Corp, including by email and by completing online forms, you are giving your consent to the collection of the Personal Information you provide.

RECORDKEEPING OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Depending on the product you have acquired, keeping a record of the transaction may be necessary for business purposes or to enable us to respond to your concerns. We may hold Personal Information for the following purposes:

• Internal accounting and administration;
• To supply you with information about your account, including regular statements;

• Enhancing customer service, product options and improving product performance;
• Promotions, competition entry forms, redemption vouchers, and special offers where you voluntarily supplied your personal details;

Occasionally, we require organizations outside Matumaini Kenya Corp to provide a service for purposes necessary for us to conduct our business, functions, and activities (for example, advertising names of competition winners and delivering products). We take all steps to ensure these organizations, both inside and outside of the United States, deal with Personal Information according to this policy.

MANAGEMENT OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

You may contact us personally by telephone, mail, over the Internet, or other electronic medium. We take all reasonable steps to secure your Personal Information through secure computer storage, hard copy files, and other records. We take steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, loss, unauthorized access, modification, or disclosure.

DISCLOSURE OF YOUR INFORMATION

Matumaini Kenya Corp does not share the personal information of its users with any unaffiliated third parties for their promotional purposes. However, we use a third-party payment processor and a third-party shipping agent to ensure the payment and delivery of your purchased products. We may use other third parties for other services from time to time. These third parties have no authority to use your personal information for their own promotional purposes. These third parties will only have limited access to your personal information in order to help complete transactions.

Although Matumaini Kenya Corp uses industry standard BEST practices to protect your Personal Information, WE DO NOT REPRESENT, WARRANT, AND/OR GUARANTEE THAT PERSONAL INFORMATION WILL REMAIN SECURE. Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee, and you should not expect, that your Personal Information or private communications will always remain private.

In the event, there is a breach of security, or we are made aware that your personal information could be jeopardized, we will take all necessary measures to communicate these issues to you so that you can take steps to protect yourself.

Moreover, in the event of a sale, merger, or transfer of some or all of Matumaini Kenya Corp’s assets, dissolution, or bankruptcy, your personal information may be transferred to an unaffiliated third party as part of or apart from other transferred assets or assets. Any transfer will then be governed by and be the responsibility of any purchaser of or successor to the transferred assets or assets. We shall notify you by a notice on the home page of any change in the information practices governing your personal information as a result of any transfer of assets or any asset change in ownership and your choices in how your information is used.

ACCESSING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

You have the right to access the Personal Information you provided. If you require details of your Personal Information held by us, we will need to verify your identity before meeting your request, which we will process in a reasonable time.

THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY AND DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN YOU AND MATUMAINI KENYA CORP.

19. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

NOTICE TO NEW JERSEY USERS: If you live in New Jersey, this section does not apply to you.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT NEITHER MATUMAINI KENYA CORP OUR AFFILIATES, OR ANY OTHER PARTY INVOLVED IN CREATING, PRODUCING, OR DELIVERING PRODUCTS, SERVICES, OR CONTENT ON THE SITE WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIMS, LOSSES, OR DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, COMPENSATORY, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES), HOWEVER CAUSED OR UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY – EVEN OUR OWN ACTIVE OR PASSIVE NEGLIGENCE – ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH (I) THE SITE; (II) THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SITE; (III) THE USE OF OR RELIANCE ON ANY CONTENT OR INFORMATION DISPLAYED IN OR ON THE SITE; (IV) THE PURCHASE OR USE OF ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES THROUGH THE SITE OR OTHERWISE; (V) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OR LOSS OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OF DATA OR OTHER INFORMATION THAT IS SENT TO OR RECEIVED BY THE SITE; (VI) ERRORS, SYSTEM DOWN TIME, NETWORK OR SYSTEM OUTAGES, FILE CORRUPTION, OR SERVICE INTERRUPTIONS; OR (VII) OTHERWISE UNDER THESE TERMS, WHETHER OR NOT REASONABLY FORESEEABLE, EVEN IF WE OR OUR REPRESENTATIVES ARE ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, CLAIMS, OR LOSSES, AND NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY.

WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE IN ANY AMOUNT FOR FAILURE TO PERFORM ANY OBLIGATION UNDER THESE TERMS IF SUCH FAILURE IS CAUSED BY THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY UNFORESEEN CONTINGENCY BEYOND OUR REASONABLE CONTROL, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, INTERNET OUTAGES, COMMUNICATIONS OUTAGES, FIRE, FLOOD, OR WAR.

The terms of this section survive any termination of these Terms.

20. TERMINATION

NOTICE TO NEW JERSEY USERS: If you live in New Jersey, this section does not apply to you.

Notwithstanding any of these Terms, we reserve the right, without notice and in our sole discretion, for any reason or no reason, to terminate your ability to use the Site and to block and prevent future access to and use of the Site. You agree that we will not be liable for any termination of your use of or access to the Site.

21. NO THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES

We and you are the only parties entitled to enforce these Terms. These Terms do not and are not intended to confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than you and Matumaini Kenya Corp. Notwithstanding the foregoing; the parties agree that the payment card networks are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms for purposes of enforcing provisions relating to payments, but that their consent or agreement is not necessary for any changes or modifications to these Terms. You also agree that if we assign, transfer, or subcontract any of our rights or obligations under these Terms to any third party in writing, such third party may enforce the Terms that are assigned, transferred, or sub-contracted.

22. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE AND WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND CLASS ARBITRATIONS

We each agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to our products, services, these terms, including our privacy policy and cookie policy, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof or the use of the services or Content available on or through the Site (collectively, “disputes”) will be settled by confidential binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right to (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; and (ii) seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademark, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights (the action described in the foregoing clause (ii) an “IP Protection Action”). The exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any IP Protection Action will be the state and federal courts located in Houston, Texas, and each of the parties hereto waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.

You acknowledge and agree that both you and Matumaini Kenya Corp are waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or, class representative or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Further, unless we both otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If this specific paragraph is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this “Dispute Resolution” section will be deemed void. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, this “Dispute Resolution” section will survive termination of these Terms.

The parties agree that (i) these Terms memorialize a transaction in interstate commerce; (ii) the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1, et seq.) governs the interpretation and enforcement of this section; and (iii) this section will survive termination of these Terms.

23. ARBITRATION RULES

The arbitration will be administered and governed by the Comprehensive or Expedited Arbitration Procedures of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (JAMS), whichever is appropriate and in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated (the “JAMS Procedures”), which are available at http://www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1-800-352-5267.
The parties expressly agree that JAMS may not administer any multiple claimant or class arbitration, as the parties agree that the arbitration will be limited to the resolution of individual claims only.

24. DISPUTE NOTICE AND ARBITRATION PROCESS

Prior to initiating an arbitration proceeding, you must first send Matumaini Kenya Corp a written statement setting forth your name, address, and telephone number, the facts giving rise to the dispute, and the relief requested (“Dispute Statement”). The Dispute Statement to Matumaini Kenya Corp must be mailed to the attention of FERNANDA FURSZYFER COHEN via a nationally recognized overnight courier. If we are unable to resolve your claim within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Dispute Statement, then either party that desires to initiate an arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the JAMS Procedures.

The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, will have exclusive authority to resolve all Disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable. Notwithstanding this broad delegation of authority to the JAMS arbitrator, a court may determine the limited question of whether a claim or cause of action is an IP Protection Action.

25. ARBITRATION LOCATION AND PROCEDURE

Unless the parties otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then (i) the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents the parties submit to the arbitrator unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary; and (ii) if there is a hearing, you may choose whether to participate in person or by telephone. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the JAMS Procedures. Subject to the JAMS Procedures, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.

26. ARBITRATOR’S DECISION

The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions of the law upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator’s award of damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Disclaimer of Warranties” and “Limitations of Liability” sections above as to the types and amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory and injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim. If you prevail in arbitration, you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law. Matumaini Kenya Corp will not seek and hereby waives all rights it may have under applicable law to recover attorneys’ fees and expenses if it prevails in arbitration.

27. TIME LIMIT FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES

The parties agree that any cause of action either may have with respect to the Site or our products, services, and Content must be commenced within one (1) year after the Dispute arises, notwithstanding any statutes of limitations to the contrary. Many states’ laws set statutes of limitations that are longer than one (1) year. If you live in a state that has statutes of limitations that are longer than one (1) year, by agreeing to these Terms, you are agreeing to shorten the time you have to bring a claim. This means that if you wait longer than one (1) year to initiate arbitration under this section, you will lose some or all rights you may have to any recovery, including the right to recover damages, in connection with a Dispute.

NOTICE TO NEW JERSEY USERS: If you live in New Jersey, your agreement to this provision shortens the time within which you may bring a Dispute.

The terms of this Dispute Resolution section survive any termination of these Terms.

Right to opt-out or reject future changes to the dispute resolution section.

You may elect to opt-out (exclude yourself) from the final, binding, individual arbitration procedure or waiver of class and representative proceedings specified in this section by sending a written letter via nationally recognized overnight courier to the attention of FERNANDA FURSZYFER COHEN within thirty (30) days of your first visit to and use of the Site that specifies your (i) name; (ii) mailing address; and (iii) request to be excluded from the final, binding, individual arbitration procedure or waiver of class and representative proceedings specified in this section. In the event you opt-out consistent with the procedure set forth above, all other terms and conditions of these Terms will continue to apply. If you do not so opt-out, then the terms of this section will apply.
Notwithstanding the provisions of “Changes to Terms of Use” section above, if Matumaini Kenya Corp changes this “Dispute Resolution” section after the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted subsequent changes to the Terms), you may reject any such change by sending Matumaini Kenya Corp written notice to the attention FERNANDA FURSZYFER COHEN within thirty (30) days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Last Updated” date above. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and Matumaini Kenya Corp in accordance with the provisions of this “Dispute Resolution” section as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms).

28. GENERAL TERMS

These Terms constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between Matumaini Kenya Corp and you regarding the Site, Content, products, and services that may be provided on the Site, and these Terms supersede and replace any and all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between you and Matumaini Kenya Corp regarding the Content, products, or services provided on the Site. If, for any reason, a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
You may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms without such consent will be null and of no effect. We may freely assign or transfer these Terms without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors, and permitted assigns.

Any notices or other communications provided by Matumaini Kenya Corp under these Terms, including those regarding modifications to these Terms, will be given by posting to the Site.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of Matumaini Kenya Corp. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise.

Nothing in these Terms will be construed as creating a joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship between you and Matumaini Kenya Corp, and you do not have any authority to create any obligation on our behalf.
