1Introduction
Samway Global Limited (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is a company registered in England and Wales.
We are committed to protecting the privacy and integrity of corporate data. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, process, and protect corporate representative and trade partner information when you utilize our B2B export platform (samwayglobal.com) or engage in trade negotiations with us, in strict accordance with the UK Data Protection Act 2018 and UK GDPR.
2Scope & Business Model (FOB / EXW Logistics)
Samway Global Limited operates strictly as a B2B intermediary providing goods under Free On Board (FOB) and Ex Works (EXW) Incoterms. Because we do not arrange or finance international freight, ocean transit, or foreign import customs bonds, we do not collect, process, or store:
- International shipping manifest data
- Private consumer delivery addresses
- Retail buyer profiles
3The Data We Collect
We collect data strictly necessary to facilitate corporate trading contracts and local Vietnamese export processing:
Corporate identity details
Legal business name, company registration numbers, and corporate tax identifiers.
Professional contact data
Names, corporate email addresses, office headquarters location, phone numbers, and designated procurement manager details.
Domestic logistics information
Details of your appointed local freight forwarder, cargo carrier accounts, or authorized local agents picking up cargo within Vietnam.
Technical website data
IP addresses, browser types, and cookie identifiers collected automatically when you visit our website.

We process your corporate entity data under the following legitimate UK legal grounds:

- Legitimate interestsTo maintain and optimize our website functionality and communicate with prospective trade clients.

- Vetted manufacturing or production partners inside Vietnam.
- Your explicitly appointed international freight forwarding agency or cargo carrier.
- Vietnamese local port and export customs clearance authorities.
6International Data Transfers
Because your cargo originates in Vietnam, the corporate details you provide to us are securely shared with our vetted operational teams and regulatory authorities in Vietnam to clear customs. We ensure appropriate safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses or IDTAs) are used to protect your personal data during these transfers.
7Data Retention
In strict compliance with HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) laws governing UK companies, all core transaction summaries, corporate invoices, and communication records are securely stored on protected networks for a mandatory minimum period of 6 years.
