Privacy Policy

Overview

Introduction

Basirah (“we”, “us”, “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy applies to personal information we process when you visit basirah.com, communicate with us, or otherwise engage with our strategic and advisory services. By using the site or submitting information to us, you acknowledge this policy.

If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use our website or submit personal data to us. We may update this page from time to time; the “Last updated” date above will change when we do.

Data we hold

Information we may collect

Depending on how you engage with us, we may process categories such as:

• Identity and contact details — for example name, email address, telephone number, company or organisation, and country.
• Enquiry and correspondence — information you include in contact forms, emails, or other messages, including your stated area of interest and the content of your message.
• Technical and usage data — such as IP address, browser type, device type, general location derived from IP or network information, pages viewed, and timestamps, where our hosting or analytics tools collect this automatically.
• Consent and preferences — records of marketing or cookie preferences where applicable.

We do not intentionally collect special categories of personal data (such as health or biometric data) through this website. Please do not send us sensitive information unless we explicitly ask for it as part of a defined process.

Legal bases

Lawful grounds

Where data protection law requires a “legal basis”, we rely on one or more of the following, as appropriate: your consent (for example where you tick a consent box or accept non-essential cookies); performance of a contract or steps at your request before a contract; our legitimate interests in operating and improving Basirah, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights; and compliance with legal obligations.

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or another region with specific requirements, you may have additional rights as described below.

Sharing

Who we may share information with

We may share personal information with:

• service providers who assist us (for example hosting, email delivery, analytics, or customer relationship tools), subject to appropriate contractual protections;
• professional advisers where required (for example lawyers or accountants);
• authorities or third parties when required by law or to protect rights and safety.

We require processors to handle information only on our instructions and in line with this policy and applicable law.

Retention

How long we keep information

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including to meet legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods vary depending on the nature of the data and our relationship with you.

Your choices

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal information, to object to certain processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before responding. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.
