Effective Date: 1 December 2025

Al-Saheb Al-Mutqadma for Information Technology (“Foodics”) is committed to protecting the online privacy of the users of this website (“Website”) or Foodics application (“App”) together, the Services. As such, this Privacy Policy has been written in order to allow you to understand Foodics’ policy regarding your privacy, as well as how your personal information will be handled when using the Website or the App. This Privacy Policy will also provide you with information so that you are able to consent to the processing of your personal data in an explicit and informed manner, where appropriate.

In general, any information and data which you provide to Foodics over the Website or the App, or which is otherwise gathered by Foodics, in the context of the use of Foodics’ Services, will be processed by Foodics in a lawful, fair and transparent manner. To this end, and as further described below, Foodics takes into consideration internationally recognised principles governing the processing of personal data, such as purpose limitation, storage limitation, data minimisation, data quality and confidentiality.

Data Controller

Al-Saheb Al-Mutqadma for Information Technology, a company registered in the KSA with commercial license number 1010486502, is the data controller regarding all personal data processing carried out through the Website or the App.

Personal Data Processed

When you use the Services, Foodics will collect and process information regarding you (as an individual) which allows you to be identified either by itself, or together with other information which has been collected. Foodics may also be able to collect and process information regarding other persons in this same manner, if you choose to provide it to Foodics.

This information may be classified as “Personal Data” and can be collected by Foodics both when you choose to provide it (e.g., when you contact Foodics through our online contact forms) or simply by analysing your behaviour on the Website or the App.

Personal Data which can be processed by Foodics through the Website or the App are as follows:

Name, contact details and other Personal Data

In order to access some of Foodics’ Services you will be asked to provide Personal Data, such as your name, contact details (mobile number, email address etc.) and the company you work for or represent and other information including but not limited to information about cards to be used as payment methods (such as number, name, expiry date and card verification number) and your address.

Device data

When choosing to install the App, you grant permission to Foodics to set up the App on your mobile device (“Device”), as well as to access Personal Data and other information stored on your Device which are needed in order to successfully install the App (e.g., Device model, operating system version, screen resolution, network connection type, language, etc.). This collection of information is inherent to the process of installing and setting up the App and, as such, you may not object to it unless you uninstall the App from your Device.

Once the App has been installed, you may be asked to allow the App to send and read SMS messages from your Device, in order to send you an SMS verification code and to grant you automatic access to the App, upon successful receipt of this code. When using the App, access may also be requested to your Device’s storage (e.g., when you register shipping addresses on an application), camera (e.g., so that you can scan your credit card in order to insert its details as a payment method in the applications) and Internet access, among other functions where necessary.

Location data

Once you have installed the App, you may be asked to consent to the App accessing your Device’s location, even when you are not using the App, as well as to your Device’s map functionalities. This is meant to allow Foodics to provide more precise and useful Services to you via the App, in particular, by allowing you to pinpoint your location, and ensuring goods/services offered to you via the App are available in your country.

If you believe that the continuous access to your location is too invasive, you can configure your Device in a way to share your position only when the App is in use. If even this is too invasive, you can always revoke the sharing of your position from the Device settings and simply provide a physical address, zip code or state for the Services you are interested in (or manually pin your relevant address on a map within the App), where relevant.

Job applications

When registering to apply for a position within Foodics, in the “Careers” section of the Website, you will also be asked to provide various types of Personal Data, including your name (first and last), professional / employment details (e.g., current job title and employer), referral sources, e-mail address, telephone number, country of residence, physical address (state, city, zip / postal code, street), age, photo, education, salary expectations, languages, professional skills, CV / resume. In some cases, you will be required to take a technical and written test that will help us in the evaluation process and that we will therefore assess.

If you provide data of third parties (e.g., contact details for references, minor’s data etc.), you assume all the obligations and responsibilities prescribed by the law, conferring the widest indemnity with respect to any dispute, claim, request for compensation for damage, etc. that we may receive from third parties whose Personal Data were transmitted by you and processed in violation of the applicable data protection laws.

In some cases, your application may contain Sensitive Personal Data relating to you or third parties, such as (but not limited to) information revealing your racial or ethnic origin, political belief, religious or intellectual beliefs, data relating to security criminal convictions and offences, Biometric or Genetic Data for the purposes of identifying the person, Health Data, and data that indicates that one or both of the individual’s parents are unknown. We do not intend to use this information unless it is necessary or required for the position you are interested in (e.g., if the position is for persons belonging to protected categories or requiring special assistance). If not, please delete them before sending your application. If you send them anyway and they are not relevant, we inform you that they will not be taken into consideration. If, on the other hand, the collection of Sensitive Personal Data is necessary to establish the relationship, the processing will be based on prior explicit consent.

Information related to security criminal convictions and offences (for example, criminal records) may also be processed by Foodics, in order to perform background checks related to you. Foodics asks you not to disclose any Sensitive Personal Data in files you upload to the Website (such as your CV / resume), unless you consider this to be strictly necessary. In this case, it is important that you provide explicit consent to process this type of Personal Data (e.g., by declaring that you consent to the processing of data contained in the uploaded files), or Foodics will not be able to lawfully process it for any purpose.

Other persons’ Personal Data

In any situation where you decide to share Personal Data related to other persons through the Website or the App, you will be considered as an independent data controller regarding that Personal Data, and must assume all inherent legal obligations and responsibilities. This means, among other things, that you must fully indemnify Foodics against any complaints, claims or demands for compensation for damages which may arise from the processing of this Personal Data, brought by third parties whose information you provide through Foodics.

As Foodics does not collect this information directly from these third parties (but rather collects them, indirectly, from you), you must make sure that you have these third parties’ consent before providing any information regarding them to Foodics; if not, then you must make sure there is some other appropriate grounds on which you can rely to lawfully give Foodics this information.

Browsing data

The Website’s operation, as is standard with any websites on the Internet, involves the use of computer systems and software procedures, which collect information about the Website’s users as part of their routine operation. While Foodics does not collect this information in order to link it to specific users, it is still possible to identify those users either directly via that information, or by using other information collected – as such, this information must also be considered Personal Data.

This information includes several parameters related to your operating system and IT environment, including your IP address, location (country), the domain names of your computer, the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) addresses of resources you request on the Website, the time of requests made, the method used to submit requests to the server, the dimensions of the file obtained in response to a request, the numerical code indicating the status of the response sent by the server (successful, error, etc.), and so on. These data are used to compile statistical information on the use of the Website, as well as to ensure its correct operation and identify any faults and/or abuse of the Website.

Personal Data collected

For Foodics RMS the information we collect includes:

• CR information: CR number, UNN, entity name, issue date, expiry date, business type, place of issue, owner name, manager name, as relevant.
• ID information: ID number, place of issue, expiry date, date of issue, as relevant.
