We take the protection and security of customer data very seriously. The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applicable. Personal data is collected by us only to the extent necessary to fulfill the order, and is not disclosed to third parties. If you are ever concerned or have question about how your personal data is collected or used, please contact us at feedback@1avisas.co.uk. Below we inform you about the data collected and the purpose for which it is collected:
What data is transmitted?In our database, we only store personal data that the applicant provides on the order form. This applies to both orders transmitted in paper form and those submitted electronically. This includes title, first and last name, billing and delivery address, telephone number, and email address. The additional data requested in the visa application forms of the respective countries (regarding marital status, identification documents, occupation, family, and travel plans) are forwarded by us to the respective visa offices and are not stored by our company. Documents submitted in paper form are destroyed after the completion of the order.
Information, Modification, and DeletionYou can inquire with us at any time whether and what personal data about you is stored with us; deletion of your data record can be done at your request at any time. Your data will not be disclosed to third parties – except for a one-time disclosure to visa offices or in the case of a debt collection process to our lawyers or a collection court.
Data SecurityThe data stored with us is kept in our outsourced data center, Fritz Managed IT GmbH, which is certified according to ISO 27001 and commits itself to a strict privacy policy beyond legal requirements [ https://www.fritz.gmbh/de/datenschutz.htm ]. Data is transmitted using an encrypted process. Your data is accessible only to the employees of 1a Visa Consulting Limited and only during office hours. The employees have been trained and are committed to data protection.
Our WebsitesIf you are a visitor to our websites and do not register with us, no connection data is collected in log files by our webservers. Once you generate an online form, the program uses so-called cookies, which are valid only during your visit. Unlike a tracking cookie, it is not possible to evaluate this cookie domain-wide, as advertising networks do. The cookie does not serve to evaluate your user behavior, but rather makes it possible to place an order. By using our website, you consent to the processing of data collected about you.
This website uses analytics and optimization tools from Google Inc. ("Google") for marketing and optimization purposes. Data is collected and stored in an anonymized form, such as the name of your Internet service provider and which pages of our website you have visited. Google Analytics uses so-called "Cookies", which are text files stored on your computer that allow an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website is usually transferred to a server in the USA and stored there. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other data/services from Google.
The collected data is not used to personally identify the visitor of this website, the individual user remains anonymous, and no data is passed on to third parties. Rather, Google creates various reports about the website activities on behalf of the operator of this website.
