Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Lang Business Development Ltd (the owner of spitimou.cy) collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal data when you visit or interact with our platform. By using the website, you agree to the terms of this policy.
-
Information We Collect
- Personal Data: Information you provide directly, such as your name, contact details, and property listings.
- Usage Data: Information about how you interact with our platform, including browser type, device information, country, and access times. Your IP address is read at the moment of each request, used to tell one visitor's repeated page views apart from several different visitors, and then discarded. We do not store it.
- Cookies: We use cookies to improve site functionality and track user behaviour on the website.
-
How We Use Your Data
We may use your personal data for:
- Providing our services, including facilitating property transactions.
- Sending notifications related to your account and listings.
- Marketing, where you have consented to receiving communications from us.
- Improving the user experience and platform functionality.
- Complying with legal obligations and resolving disputes.
-
Lawful Basis for Processing
We rely on the following lawful bases under Article 6 of the GDPR:
- Consent — for the measurement that recognises a returning visit. If you allow analytics cookies, we record which property you viewed, what you did on the page, the site you arrived from, and an identifier that lets us recognise the same visitor for up to 365 days. You may withdraw this consent at any time, and withdrawing it stops that recognition immediately.
- Legitimate interest — for the measurement we carry out when you refuse analytics cookies. We still record the visit, so that the company advertising a property can be told how their listing performed. That record holds which property you viewed, how long you spent on it, which parts of the page you opened, the site or advert you arrived from, your country and your device type. It is keyed by a code worked out from your IP address and browser, which we cannot recover once that day has ended, and the record itself is deleted within 3 days. Nothing is stored on your device, and we cannot recognise you again on a later day. Our interest is in reporting accurately on the listings we publish. We have balanced that against your interests, and the safeguards we rely on are the short life of the record, the daily loss of the key that ties it to you, and the absence of any lasting identifier. You have the right to object to this measurement, and you can exercise it yourself: choose Object to tracking in the cookie settings, or turn on Global Privacy Control in your browser, which we treat as an objection. Objecting is not the same as refusing analytics cookies: with cookies refused we still count the visit and forget you at the end of the day, whereas if you object we stop before we look at anything about your visit — no record is written and no code is worked out from your address.
- Performance of a contract — for the accounts, listings and reports we provide to agents and to the companies advertising on the platform.
- Legal obligation — where we are required to retain or disclose data by law.
-
Data Sharing
- We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
- We share reports about visits to a property with the company that advertises that property. Those reports describe how the listing performed — how many visits it received, where those visits came from, and what visitors did on the page. They show totals per traffic source and per listing, not individual visits.
- We may share your data with trusted third-party service providers to process payments, provide customer support, or conduct analytics.
- We may disclose personal data if required by law or in connection with legal proceedings, fraud prevention, or protecting the rights of Lang Business Development.
-
Security of Your Data
We implement security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, disclosure, or alteration. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
-
Your Rights
As a data subject, you have the right to:
- Access, correct, or delete the personal data we hold about you. The record of your visit to a property page can be deleted for as long as it exists, which is at most 3 days (see Retention of Data); after that, only a daily count remains, which holds nothing that identifies you and so nothing left to erase.
- Object to processing we base on legitimate interest. For the visit measurement described under Lawful Basis for Processing you need not ask us: choose Object to tracking in the cookie settings, or turn on Global Privacy Control in your browser and we treat that signal as an objection. From then on we record nothing about your visits. To object to any other such processing, contact us at the address below.
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
You can exercise these rights by contacting us at the contact information provided below.
-
Retention of Data
We will retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
The record of an individual visit to a property page is deleted within 3 days, whether or not you allowed analytics cookies. What remains after that is a daily count per property and traffic source, which holds no identifier for you and nothing derived from your network address. Those counts are kept indefinitely.
An enquiry you send to an agent about a property is kept for 24 months from the last activity on it — the day it was sent, or the day the agent last updated it, whichever is later — and is then permanently deleted.
-
Transfers of Data
If your personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as the use of Standard Contractual Clauses or similar mechanisms to ensure an adequate level of protection for your data.
-
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on our website. You can control the use of cookies through your browser settings.
If you object to being measured we set one essential cookie, spitimou_tracking_objection, which lasts 400 days and does nothing but remember your objection; withdrawing the objection removes it. No cookie is set when your objection comes from a Global Privacy Control signal, because your browser is already carrying it.
-
Children’s Privacy
spitimou.cy is not intended for individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors.
-
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Any changes will be posted on this page, and the updated policy will take effect as soon as it is posted.
