Legal basis under GDPR

Under Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), we rely on one or more of the following legal bases: your consent (for example, marketing emails where you tick the consent box), steps taken at your request before entering a service relationship, our legitimate interests in operating and improving our advisory services, and compliance with legal obligations.

Providing certain information is voluntary. If you choose not to provide data needed to respond to your enquiry, we may be unable to assist you fully.

We do not sell personal data. We may share information only where necessary:

• With licensed Greek immigration and property lawyers, when coordinating support you have requested
• With property developers or authorised sales representatives, when you enquire about a specific project
• With service providers who host our website or support our operations, under confidentiality and data-processing obligations
• With authorities where required by applicable law or to protect our legal rights

International transfers

Our team and clients are international. Personal data is primarily processed within the European Economic Area. Where data is transferred outside the EEA, we apply appropriate safeguards consistent with GDPR requirements.

Cookies and similar technologies

A cookie is a small text file stored on your device to help a website function and remember certain preferences. We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

• Strictly necessary cookies — required for site security and basic operation, including CSRF protection on forms. These do not require consent.
• Analytics and marketing cookies — we use Meta Pixel on our home page to measure visit activity and campaign performance. This helps us understand how visitors find and use the site.

Third-party cookies

Third-party services we use may set their own cookies, including:

• Meta (Facebook) Pixel — for website analytics and advertising measurement. See Meta's cookie policy at https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies/

Managing cookies

You can control or block cookies through your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how certain parts of the website work, including form submission. Blocking analytics cookies limits our ability to measure site usage but does not prevent you from browsing the site.

Data retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described above, including to respond to your enquiry, maintain business records, and comply with legal obligations. When data is no longer required, it is deleted or anonymised in accordance with our retention practices.

Data security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. However, no online system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
