How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect strictly for the following purposes:

How We Share Your Information
Your data is shared only when necessary to provide our Services.
- With Government Authorities: The core of our Service is submitting your application. To do this, we must share your personal information and supporting documents with the specific government, embassy, or consulate responsible for issuing the e-Visa you are applying for. We have no control over how your data is handled or processed by these government entities once submitted.
- With Third-Party Service Providers: We may share information with trusted third parties who perform services for us, such as payment processing, data hosting (cloud servers), and customer support. These providers are contractually obligated to protect your data.
- For Legal Reasons: We may disclose your information if required by law, in response to a subpoena, or if we believe in good faith that such action is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of our company, our users, or the public.
Data Security
We implement administrative, technical, and physical security measures to protect your personal information. This includes:
- SSL Encryption: All data transmitted to and from our Site is encrypted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.
- Access Controls: Only authorized personnel with a legitimate need can access your personal data.
- Secure Storage: Your data is stored on secure servers, and sensitive information like passport copies is encrypted at rest.
Despite these measures, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Data Retention
We will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including processing your visa application and for a reasonable period afterward for our internal records, or as required by law. After this period, your personal data will be securely deleted.
