ALWADI TOURISM
Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information may be collected through our website, how it is used and the choices available to you.
Website: alwaditourism.com
VISA APPLICATION DATA
Information required for visa services
As a visa service provider, we collect and process personal information—including photographs and passport details—for the purpose of visa applications.
The information collected is used solely to provide visa services and is handled with strict confidentiality and security measures.
MEDIA
Uploaded files
If you upload images to the website, avoid uploading images containing embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Website visitors may be able to download images and extract location data from them.
EMBEDDED CONTENT
Content from other websites
Pages on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images or articles. Embedded content behaves in the same way as if the visitor had visited the originating website directly.
These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, add third-party tracking and monitor your interaction with their content—including when you have an account and are logged in to that website.
REFUND POLICY
When a refund may apply
If a country does not grant tourist visas, the amount paid by the customer will be refunded within 15 days. If a visa application is rejected by the immigration authorities for security reasons, no refund will be provided.
DATA RETENTION
How long information is retained
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows follow-up comments to be recognised and approved automatically rather than held in a moderation queue.
For registered users, if any, we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can view, edit or delete their personal information at any time, except for their username. Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
YOUR RIGHTS
Your choices regarding personal data
If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you may request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including information you provided.
You may also request that we erase personal data we hold about you. This does not include information we must retain for administrative, legal or security purposes.
DATA DESTINATIONS
Where information may be sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam-detection service.

COMMENTS
Information collected from comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, together with the visitor’s IP address and browser user-agent string to help with spam detection.
An anonymised string created from your email address—also called a hash—may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether you use it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is provided by Automattic. After approval of your comment, your profile picture may be visible publicly in the context of your comment.
