Privacy
Policy
This policy explains how Global One Advisory collects, uses and protects personal information when you use our website or contact us.
We only collect information that is relevant to operating, improving and providing access to our services.
Global One Advisory may receive personal information when you browse our website, submit an enquiry, complete an application form, communicate with us or request an introduction to an independent professional or service provider.
We aim to handle that information responsibly, transparently and only for legitimate business purposes.
How this privacy policy applies
This Privacy Policy applies to personal information processed through the Global One Advisory website and through communications connected with our website, enquiries, applications, introductions and general business activities.
It explains what information we may collect, why we use it, when it may be shared and the choices and rights available to you.
This policy does not replace the privacy notices of independent lawyers, accountants, banks, immigration professionals, corporate service providers or other third parties with whom you may separately engage.
What information we may collect
The information we collect depends on how you interact with Global One Advisory.
This may include:
- Name and contact details
- Email address and telephone number
- Nationality and country of residence
- Information about relocation or residency objectives
- General information about business activities or company ownership
- Information voluntarily provided through application or enquiry forms
- Communications sent to us by email, messaging applications or other channels
- Technical information about your use of the website
- IP address, browser type, device information and approximate location data
- Website analytics and interaction data
You should only provide information that is reasonably necessary for your enquiry or application. More sensitive information may later be requested directly by an independent professional or regulated provider where required for legal, compliance, KYC or due diligence purposes.
How we use personal information
We may use personal information for purposes including:
- Responding to enquiries and applications
- Understanding your stated objectives and requirements
- Determining which service or provider may be relevant
- Coordinating introductions to independent professionals or service providers
- Managing communications and follow-up
- Operating and improving the website
- Monitoring website performance and user experience
- Preventing misuse, fraud or security incidents
- Complying with applicable legal and regulatory obligations
- Maintaining internal business and administrative records
We do not use personal information for purposes that are materially incompatible with the reason it was originally collected unless permitted by law.
Why we are permitted to process information
Depending on the circumstances and the laws that apply, we may process personal information on one or more of the following bases:
- Your consent
- Our legitimate interests in operating and improving Global One Advisory
- Taking steps in response to an enquiry or request made by you
- Compliance with a legal obligation
- Protection of our legal rights or the rights of others
Where consent is the basis for processing, you may withdraw that consent at any time, subject to any processing that is otherwise permitted or required by law.
Information submitted through our website
When you submit an enquiry or application, we may use the information provided to understand your situation and determine whether Global One Advisory or one of our independent partners may be able to assist.
This may involve reviewing information about your nationality, residence, business interests, relocation goals or other circumstances relevant to your enquiry.
Submitting information through our website does not create a lawyer-client, tax adviser-client, accountant-client or other regulated professional relationship.
Where a matter progresses, further information may be requested by an independent professional or service provider under their own privacy, compliance and onboarding procedures.
Independent professionals and service providers
Where relevant to your enquiry, we may share limited personal information with independent professionals or service providers in order to arrange an introduction, assess suitability or coordinate next steps.
These parties may include:
- Lawyers and legal professionals
- Tax advisers and accountants
- Immigration and residency professionals
- Corporate and fiduciary service providers
- Banks and financial institutions
- Administrative and compliance providers
- Technology, hosting and communications providers
Independent providers may process personal information as separate data controllers and may have their own privacy notices and legal obligations.
Once you provide information directly to an independent provider, that provider is responsible for how it handles your information under its own privacy policy and applicable law.
International transfers
Global One Advisory operates in an international context and may work with service providers or professionals located in different countries.
As a result, personal information may in some cases be processed or transferred outside the country in which you are located.
Where required by applicable data protection law, reasonable steps will be taken to ensure that appropriate safeguards are used for international transfers.
Different jurisdictions may provide different levels of legal protection for personal information.
Cookies and analytics
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate correctly, remember preferences, understand how visitors use the website and improve performance.
These technologies may collect technical information including device type, browser, page visits, referral source, session duration and interaction data.
Some cookies may be essential to the operation of the website, while others may be used for analytics, performance or marketing purposes.
Where required by applicable law, non-essential cookies will be used subject to the choices available through the website's consent mechanism.
Marketing and follow-up
We may contact you in connection with an enquiry, application or previous communication with Global One Advisory.
Where legally permitted, we may also send occasional communications about relevant services, updates, articles or opportunities that may be of interest.
You may opt out of marketing communications at any time by using an unsubscribe mechanism where available or by contacting us.
Opting out of marketing does not prevent us from sending necessary administrative or service-related communications.
How long we keep information
Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including business, legal, compliance and record-keeping requirements.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the nature of the interaction.
Information relating to an enquiry that does not progress may generally be retained for a limited period so that we can respond to follow-up communications, maintain appropriate records and understand previous interactions.
Information may be retained for longer where required by law, necessary for the establishment or defence of legal claims, or otherwise permitted by law.
Protecting personal information
We take reasonable organisational and technical measures intended to protect personal information against unauthorised access, misuse, alteration, disclosure or loss.
However, no website, email system, messaging platform or method of electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Users should therefore take reasonable precautions when sending sensitive information electronically.
Access, correction and other data rights
Depending on the data protection laws that apply to you, you may have rights in relation to your personal information.
These may include the right to:
- Request access to personal information held about you
- Request correction of inaccurate information
- Request deletion of personal information in certain circumstances
- Request restriction of processing
- Object to certain processing based on legitimate interests
- Withdraw consent where processing relies on consent
- Request data portability where applicable
- Lodge a complaint with an appropriate data protection authority
These rights are not absolute and may be subject to legal exceptions, verification requirements and applicable retention obligations.
Links to other websites
Our website may contain links to independent websites, service providers, banks, government authorities or other third-party resources.
Global One Advisory is not responsible for the privacy practices, security or content of websites operated by third parties.
You should review the privacy policy of any third-party website before submitting personal information to it.
Children's information
Global One Advisory is not intended to collect personal information directly from children through this website.
Where information concerning a child is relevant to a family residency, immigration or citizenship matter, that information should ordinarily be provided by a parent, guardian or authorised representative and may be processed by the relevant independent provider.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our website, business practices, technology or applicable law.
The current version will be published on this website and the date at the top of the page will indicate when it was last materially updated.
Privacy questions and requests
If you have a question about this Privacy Policy, the use of your personal information or a request relating to your privacy rights, you can contact Global One Advisory through the website.
We may need to verify your identity before responding to certain requests involving personal information.
Your information should have a purpose.
We aim to collect only what is reasonably relevant, use it for legitimate purposes and share it only where necessary to operate the website or progress the matter you have asked us to assist with.
