Privacy
Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Achievia Pvt Ltd, a private limited company incorporated in the Republic of the Maldives and trading as “Achievia Consultancy” (“Achievia”, “we”, “us” or “our”), collects, uses, discloses and protects personal data in connection with the website at achievia.mv and its subdomains (the “Website”).
This Privacy Policy explains how Achievia Pvt Ltd, a private limited company incorporated in the Republic of the Maldives and trading as “Achievia Consultancy” (“Achievia”, “we”, “us” or “our”), collects, uses, discloses and protects personal data in connection with the website at achievia.mv and its subdomains (the “Website”).
The Website is an informational and marketing platform. It does not offer user accounts, registration, log-ins or public user profiles, and we do not knowingly build individual profiles of visitors. The personal data we handle is therefore limited, and is described below.
We are the data controller responsible for personal data processed through the Website. We process personal data in accordance with the applicable data-protection law of the Republic of the Maldives, including the Personal Data Protection Act (Law No. 23/2024) (the “PDPA”), to the extent it applies.
5. International Transfers
Some of our service providers (for example, hosting or analytics providers) may store or process data on servers located outside the Republic of the Maldives. Where personal data is transferred outside the Maldives, we take reasonable steps to ensure it is protected by appropriate safeguards and handled consistently with this Policy and applicable law.
6. Data Retention
We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to respond to your enquiry, to meet our administrative and business needs, and to comply with any legal, regulatory or professional record-keeping obligations. When personal data is no longer required, we will securely delete, destroy or anonymise it. Where a formal engagement follows your enquiry, the retention of any related data will be governed by the terms of that engagement.
1. Personal Data We Collect
Because the Website has no registered users, we only collect personal data in a small number of situations:
- a) Information you give us through enquiry / contact forms. When you complete a contact or enquiry form,mrequest a consultation, or otherwise contact us through the Website, we collect the details you provide — typically your name, email address, telephone number, the service you are interested in, and the contents of your message.
- b) Information you send us directly. If you email or call us using the details on the Website, we collect the information contained in your communication.
- c) Technical and usage data. When you visit the Website, our servers and third-party tools may automatically collect limited technical data such as your IP address, browser type and version, device and operating system, referring pages, and the dates, times and pages of your visit. This data is used in aggregate and is generally not used to identify you personally.
- d) Cookies and similar technologies. We use cookies and similar technologies as described in Section 7.
We do not intentionally collect special categories of sensitive personal data through the Website. Please do not submit confidential, privileged or sensitive information through the Website’s forms; sensitive matters should be handled under a formal engagement with appropriate confidentiality arrangements in place.
2. How and Why We Use Personal Data
We use the personal data described above to:
- respond to your enquiries, provide the information you request, and follow up on consultation or service requests;
- communicate with you about your enquiry and, where relevant, discuss a potential engagement;
- operate, maintain, secure and improve the Website and understand how it is used;
- keep records of communications for administrative, quality and business-management purposes; and
- comply with our legal, regulatory and professional obligations, including record-keeping and, where applicable, anti-money-laundering / counter-financing-of-terrorism (AML/CFT) requirements.
We rely on lawful bases for processing consistent with the PDPA, including your consent (which you give when you choose to contact us or accept non-essential cookies), the need to take steps at your request prior to entering into a service arrangement, our legitimate interests in operating and promoting our business, and compliance with legal obligations
3. Marketing Communications
We will only send you marketing or promotional communications where you have requested them or otherwise consented, or where permitted by law. Every marketing email will include a simple way to opt out, and you may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at [email protected]. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal
4. Disclosure of Personal Data
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal data. We may share personal data only in the following limited circumstances:
- Service providers and processors: trusted third parties who provide services on our behalf, such as website hosting, email, IT support and analytics providers, who are permitted to use the data only to provide those services to us and under appropriate confidentiality and security obligations;
- Professional advisers and affiliated partners: where relevant to responding to your enquiry, and subject to confidentiality;
- Legal and regulatory disclosure: where we are required or permitted by law, court order, or a competent regulatory or governmental authority to disclose the data; and
- Business transfers: in connection with any reorganisation, merger, sale or transfer of our business or assets, subject to appropriate safeguards.
7. Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. We use a limited number of cookies and similar technologies, which may include:
- Essential cookies: necessary for the Website to function and to remember your cookie preferences;
- Analytics cookies: which help us understand, in aggregate, how visitors use the Website so we can improve it.
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and you can decline non-essential cookies via the cookie notice on the Website. Blocking some cookies may affect how the Website functions. Where we use third-party analytics, those providers process data under their own privacy terms.
8. Your Rights
Subject to the conditions and exemptions in the PDPA and other applicable law, you have rights in relation to your personal data, which may include the right to:
- be informed about how your personal data is used;
- request access to the personal data we hold about you;
- request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data;
- request erasure of your personal data where there is no lawful reason for us to continue holding it;
- object to, or request that we restrict, certain processing; and
- withdraw consent at any time where our processing is based on consent.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details in Section 11. We may need to verify your identity before responding. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant data-protection supervisory authority in the Republic of the Maldives
9. How We Protect Personal Data
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You transmit information to us at your own risk, and we encourage you not to send sensitive information through the Website’s forms.
10. Children’s Privacy
The Website is intended for a business audience and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
