Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

At Expatriates KSA ("we", "us", "our"), we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our website expatriatesksa.com (the "Service"). We aim to comply with the Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) and applicable regulations.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information:

• Account information: name, email address, and phone number when you register.
• Ad information: the details, images, contact information, and location you provide when posting an ad.
• Usage data: anonymised page views and visit counts (we store a hashed identifier, not your raw IP address) to measure site traffic.
• Communications: messages you send us through the contact form.

2. How We Use Your Information

• To create and manage your account, and to publish the ads you post.
• To send you service emails (verification codes, ad status updates, and, if you subscribe, category alerts).
• To review and moderate ads to keep the marketplace safe.
• To understand site usage and improve our Service.

3. Sharing of Information

The contact details you choose to include in an ad are shown publicly so buyers can reach you. We do not sell your personal data. We may share information only when required by law, or to protect the rights and safety of our users.

4. Cookies

We use minimal cookies to keep you signed in and to remember display preferences (such as list/grid view). We do not use invasive tracking cookies.

5. Data Security

Passwords are stored using strong one-way encryption (bcrypt). We take reasonable technical measures to protect your data, though no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.

6. Your Rights

You may access, update, or delete your account information at any time from your profile page. To request full deletion of your data, contact us at admin@expatriatesksa.com.

7. Third-Party Links

Our Service may contain links to third-party websites (including partner listings and social media). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites.

8. Children

Our Service is not directed to individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
