Privacy Policy
How we collect, use and protect your personal data under the EU General Data Protection Regulation and Cyprus data-protection law.
Who we are
This Privacy Policy explains how Cyprus Relocation Experts Ltd. (HE 423918), a company registered in Cyprus with its registered office at Leoforos Dimokratias 32, Ground Floor, 8028 Paphos, Cyprus (“we”, “us” or “our”), processes personal data when you visit our website, contact us, or engage us for professional services.
We act as a data controller in respect of the personal data we collect about you. If you have any questions, please contact us at info@cyprusrelocationexperts.com.
What data we collect
We only collect what we need to advise you well. Specifically:
- Contact data you give us — name, email, phone number, WhatsApp handle, country of origin, free-text enquiry message.
- Engagement data for clients we go on to advise — copies of passports, apostilled civil records, financial statements, tax filings, property documents.
- Communication data — emails, WhatsApp messages and notes from calls.
- Technical data automatically logged when you visit the site — IP address, browser type, the pages you view. We do not currently run third-party analytics or advertising trackers.
How we use your data
We use the data above only for the purposes you would expect:
- To respond to your enquiry and arrange a consultation.
- To carry out the legal, tax, immigration and concierge services we have agreed with you.
- To comply with our regulatory and statutory obligations, including AML/KYC checks.
- To keep records that allow us to defend a legal claim or respond to a regulator.
We will never sell your personal data, and we will not use it for marketing to other audiences.
Legal basis for processing
We rely on the following lawful bases under Article 6 of the GDPR:
- Performance of a contract — to deliver the services you have engaged us for.
- Legal obligation — to comply with Cyprus AML, tax and professional rules.
- Legitimate interests — to run our firm and keep our records.
- Consent — where you have given it.
How long we keep your data
- Website enquiries that do not become engagements: up to 12 months.
- Active client files: 6 years after the engagement ends, in line with Cyprus accounting, tax and AML rules.
- AML KYC files: 5 years minimum from the end of the relationship.
International transfers
Most processing happens inside the EEA. For non-EEA service providers we use the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, supplemented by reasonable technical safeguards.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to:
- Ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Ask us to correct or delete data.
- Object to or restrict certain processing.
- Ask for your data in a portable form.
- Withdraw any consent you have given.
- Lodge a complaint with a data-protection authority.
To exercise any of these rights, email info@cyprusrelocationexperts.com.
Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data — encrypted email and file storage, access controls, written confidentiality terms. If a personal data breach affects you, we will notify both you and the regulator without undue delay.
