As a New Mexico LLC engaged in active U.S. commerce, ZOE-DEL maintains full compliance with applicable federal and state regulatory requirements. This includes IRS federal tax obligations — EIN registration, federal income reporting under the LLC pass-through framework, and applicable sales and excise tax obligations. We adhere to FTC consumer protection regulations governing e-commerce representations, fulfillment accuracy, and return policy disclosures. Annual reporting obligations to the New Mexico Secretary of State are current, and the company maintains formal separation of business and personal finances across all operating accounts.

ZOE-DEL serves customers across more than 50 countries, coordinating logistics operations across three continents. Our cross-border commercial activity is governed by awareness and adherence to applicable international trade frameworks, including U.S. export control regulations under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), OFAC sanctions screening protocols, and customs and import/export documentation standards. Our storefronts align with country-specific import restrictions, prohibited goods regulations, and customs duty disclosure requirements. We apply Incoterms 2020 standards in applicable commercial relationships, and our operations are structured to reduce exposure to cross-border compliance risk at scale.

ZOE-DEL processes customer data across multiple jurisdictions and maintains compliance alignment with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the governing data protection framework for EU and EEA customers, and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which extends enhanced privacy rights to California residents. Our data governance practices ensure lawful bases for all data processing activities, transparent privacy disclosures at point of collection, data subject rights fulfillment — including access, deletion, and portability — and implementation of technical and organizational security measures proportionate to the risk of processing. Data protection is embedded in our platform architecture and vendor management processes, not treated as a legal afterthought.

ZOE-DEL processes multi-currency transactions across its e-commerce platforms exclusively through PCI-DSS compliant payment gateways — the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, which governs the secure handling, transmission, and storage of cardholder data globally. No raw cardholder data is stored on ZOE-DEL infrastructure; all transactions are tokenized through certified third-party payment processors. The company maintains Anti-Money Laundering (AML) awareness protocols and Know Your Customer (KYC) due diligence practices consistent with applicable financial services standards. Our internal payment operations team, FinEdge, operates under a compliance framework designed to align with evolving global payments regulation, blockchain asset compliance considerations, and the due diligence standards of international correspondent banking relationships.

ZOE-DEL maintains a structured and proactive tax compliance posture across its jurisdictions. In the United States, the company fulfills federal income tax obligations through the LLC pass-through taxation framework and maintains financial records in compliance with IRS recordkeeping requirements. New Mexico gross receipts tax obligations are actively monitored in alignment with the Taxation and Revenue Department of New Mexico. Internationally, ZOE-DEL monitors applicable tax treaty provisions, VAT and GST collection obligations across relevant market jurisdictions, and OECD digital services tax framework developments. Marketplace-facilitated tax collection is managed through the built-in tax compliance mechanisms on Amazon, Etsy, and Shopify. Legal compliance further extends to platform-specific seller agreements, consumer-facing terms of service, and intellectual property protections governing the full ZOE-DEL brand portfolio.
