Privacy Notice

Who is responsible for your information

The Association of Returned Migrants from Europe to the Kurdistan Region ("the Association", "we") is responsible for information you provide through this website. You can reach us using the details on the Contact page or by email at bakrbaban94@gmail.com.

What information we collect

When you use the contact form, we collect the information you choose to provide: your name, email address, optional telephone number, optional location, your preferred language, the nature of your enquiry, your preferred contact method, your message, and your consent to be contacted.

We do not ask for identity documents, financial details, or medical information through this website.

Basic technical information (such as your device type, browser, and general connection information) may be recorded by our hosting provider for security and reliability purposes.

Why we collect it

We use the information you provide only to understand your enquiry, respond to you, refer you to an appropriate service where relevant, and keep a record of the communication so we can follow up.

How enquiries are handled

Enquiries submitted through the contact form are delivered as an email to the Association's designated contact. Only authorised representatives of the Association read incoming enquiries.

How long we keep it

We keep enquiry correspondence only as long as necessary to respond to you and to maintain a reasonable record of our work. Correspondence that is no longer needed is deleted.

Who may receive your information

We do not sell or trade your information. Information is not shared with third parties except where you have explicitly asked us to refer you to another organisation, or where disclosure is required by law.

International transfers

Email is delivered through standard internet services. This means messages may pass through servers located outside the Kurdistan Region and Iraq. We do not deliberately transfer your information abroad for any other purpose.

How we protect it

This website is served over HTTPS. Access to the Association's email is restricted to authorised representatives. We do not display case details, personal circumstances, or the identities of individual enquirers publicly on this website.

Your rights

You may ask us what information we hold about you, ask us to correct information that is inaccurate, or ask us to delete correspondence that is no longer required. We will respond to reasonable requests within a reasonable time.

Raising a concern

If you have a concern about how your information has been handled, please contact us at bakrbaban94@gmail.com and we will look into it.

Changes to this notice

We may update this notice from time to time to reflect changes in how the website operates. The effective date at the top of this page will always show when it was last updated.
