Privacy Policy

This privacy policy explains how Houseology collects, uses, shares and protects personal information when you visit our website, make an enquiry, become a client, attend an event, subscribe to communications or otherwise interact with us.

1. Who we are

Houseology [insert full legal entity name and registered details] is responsible for the personal information described in this policy. Where applicable, we act as the data controller.

2. Information we may collect

We may collect information you provide directly, including your name, contact details, property requirements, investment objectives, relocation plans, nationality or residency information where relevant to a service, and correspondence with our team.

We may also collect technical information such as IP address, device and browser information, pages visited, referral source and cookie identifiers.

3. How we use your information
  • We use personal information to:
  • respond to enquiries.  
  • provide property, investment and relocation services.  
  • arrange viewings and introductions.  
  • manage client relationships.  
  • administer transactions.  
  • improve our website and services.  
  • keep appropriate business records.  
  • protect our systems.  
  • comply with legal and regulatory obligations; and  
  • where permitted, send relevant marketing communications.  
4. Legal bases and consent

Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, we process personal information where it is necessary to perform a contract or take steps at your request, comply with a legal obligation, pursue legitimate business interests, or where you have given consent.

Where consent is required, you can withdraw it at any time.

5. Sharing your information

We may share relevant information with developers, sellers, landlords, property portals, professional advisers, technology and marketing providers, payment or administration providers, and trusted specialists such as legal, tax, mortgage, visa or relocation partners where necessary to provide the service you request.

We may also disclose information where required by law or a competent authority.

6. International transfers

Because Houseology works across the UK and UAE and may use international service providers, personal information may be processed outside the country in which it was collected.

Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including legal, regulatory, accounting and dispute-resolution requirements.

Retention periods vary according to the type of information and our relationship with you.

We may send you property updates, market insights, events or other marketing where we have a lawful basis to do so.

You can opt out at any time using the unsubscribe link in an email or by contacting us.

9. Cookies and analytics

Depending on the law that applies to you, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to the use of your personal information, request a portable copy, or withdraw consent.

You may also have the right to complain to the relevant data protection authority.
