Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how CyprusHomesDirect.com handles your information. In short: this website provides free property-cost calculators, and it is designed to collect as little personal data as possible.

1. Data Controller

CyprusHomesDirect.com is operated by a private individual based in the Republic of Cyprus. For any data-related question, contact: info@cyprushomesdirect.com.

2. Information We Collect

The values you type into our calculators (such as property price, deposit, or income) are processed entirely in your browser, on your own device. They are never transmitted to, or stored on, our servers, and we cannot see them. We do not operate user accounts, contact forms, newsletters, or any other mechanism that would collect your name or contact details.

Like virtually all websites, our hosting provider may automatically record standard technical information — such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages requested — in server access logs. This is used only to keep the website secure and operational.

3. Cookies and Analytics

Your cookie-consent choice is saved in your browser's local storage so we can respect it on future visits. If — and only if — you accept cookies, we use Google Analytics 4 to understand in aggregate how visitors use the site (for example, which calculators are most used). If you choose Reject, Google Analytics is not loaded. See our Cookie Policy for the specific cookies involved.

4. Lawful Basis for Processing

For the limited technical data needed to keep the website secure and functioning (such as server logs), we rely on our legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). For analytics, we rely on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you provide via the cookie banner and may withdraw at any time by clearing this site's local storage.

5. No Selling of Data

We do not sell or rent your personal data, and we do not pass your details to property developers, agencies, banks, or advisers. There is no enquiry or lead-generation activity on this website. Where you have consented to analytics, Google acts as our service provider and processes that data on our behalf, and may transfer it outside the EEA under its own safeguards — see Google's Privacy Policy.

6. Data Retention

We do not maintain any customer or enquiry database. Server access logs are retained by our hosting provider for no more than 90 days for security purposes.

7. Your Rights

Under GDPR (Law 125(I)/2018 as implemented in Cyprus) you have the right to:

• Access any personal data we hold about you (Article 15)
• Rectification of inaccurate data (Article 16)
• Erasure — the "right to be forgotten" (Article 17)
• Restriction of processing (Article 18)
• Data portability (Article 20)
• Lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority (Article 77)

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@cyprushomesdirect.com.

8. Right to Lodge a Complaint
