Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience, analyse site traffic, and provide you with personalised content. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website.

We use both essential and non-essential cookies. Categories currently in use may include, but are not limited to:

7. Third-Party Services, Links & Project Photography

7.1 Third-Party Services and Links

Our website may include links to external websites or third-party services (e.g., social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube, or mapping services). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third parties. We encourage you to review their terms and privacy policies before engaging with them.

7.2 Project Photography & Delivery Day Images

As part of our standard practice, Hanadjias Homes photographs the moment of delivering a completed home to its owners. These images, which may include the faces and likenesses of homeowners, may be published on our website and/or social media channels to document and celebrate the delivery of each project.

Such photographs are published on the basis of our legitimate interest in showcasing our completed work and communicating our services to the public (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR), in a manner consistent with the reasonable expectations of those involved.

We are mindful of individual privacy and handle each case with care. If you appear in a photograph published on our website or social media and wish to request its removal or correction, please contact us at info@hanadjiashomes.com. We will review your request promptly, in good faith, and take appropriate action without undue delay.

We avoid publishing personal data beyond what is visually present in project photography. No names, addresses, or other identifying information are associated with published images without the express agreement of the individuals concerned.

7.3 Social Media Pages

Hanadjias Homes operates official pages and accounts on social media platforms including, but not limited to, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube. Where we maintain a presence on such platforms, the platform operator and Hanadjias Homes Ltd may act as joint data controllers with respect to certain data processed through your interaction with those pages (e.g., page insights, engagement statistics).

Each platform operator processes your data under its own terms and privacy policy, independently of Hanadjias Homes. This applies to all platforms on which we currently operate or may operate in the future, including but not limited to Meta (Facebook, Instagram), Google (YouTube), LinkedIn, X (formerly Twitter), and TikTok. We encourage you to review the privacy documentation of each platform you use.

Hanadjias Homes does not control or take responsibility for the data practices of social media platforms. For questions specifically related to how a platform processes your data, please refer to that platform’s privacy policy directly.

8. Personal Data and Retention

8.1 Sensitive Data

We do not collect or process any special categories of personal data (such as health or religious information). We advise users not to submit such information via any communication channels.

8.2 Data Sharing

We do not share your personal data with third parties for marketing or commercial purposes. However, limited data may be shared with trusted service providers (processors), solely for operational reasons such as website hosting, maintenance, or technical support. These third parties act on our behalf and are bound by data protection agreements compliant with the GDPR.

We do not sell or rent any personal data under any circumstances.

8.3 Data Retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes for which they were collected, unless a longer retention period is required by law. As a general guide, indicative retention periods include:

• General enquiries and correspondence: up to 12 months from the date of last contact, unless ongoing contractual or pre-contractual steps are involved;
• Job applications: up to 6 months from the date of submission, unless the applicant consents to retention for a longer period for future opportunities;
• Cookie and analytics data: in accordance with the settings of the relevant cookie provider, typically between 13 and 26 months;
• Data retained for legal or contractual purposes: for the period required under applicable law or as necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

These are indicative periods only and may vary depending on the specific circumstances and applicable legal requirements. When data are no longer needed, they are securely deleted or anonymised. Data retention practices are reviewed periodically to ensure ongoing compliance with the GDPR.

8.4 Automated Decision Processing

We do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling through the website. No decisions are made about users based solely on automated processing that produces legal effects or similarly significant impacts.

8.5 International Data Transfers

Some of the third-party service providers we use (such as analytics tools or social media platforms) may process data in countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Where such transfers occur, we ensure they are carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law, including through the use of Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission or other appropriate safeguards, so that your data receives a level of protection equivalent to that within the EEA.

9. Incident Response Policy

In the event of a personal data breach, we will promptly assess the situation and implement appropriate technical and organisational measures without undue delay.

If the breach is likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, we will notify the relevant Data Protection Authority within 72 hours, in accordance with Article 33 of the GDPR.

If the breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals, we will also inform affected data subjects without undue delay, in accordance with Article 34 GDPR.

Notifications will include:

• A description of the nature of the breach
• The categories and approximate number of data subjects and records involved
• The likely consequences of the breach
• The measures taken or proposed to address and mitigate the breach

The Data Controller is responsible for coordinating the incident response and ensuring that any required communications are made in a timely and transparent manner.

If the breach is unlikely to result in a risk to individuals’ rights and freedoms, no notification to data subjects is required.

10. Complaint Mechanism

If you have any concerns or complaints regarding the way we process your personal data, we encourage you to contact us first at info@hanadjiashomes.com, so we can attempt to resolve the matter promptly and amicably.

If you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority. In Cyprus, you may contact the Office of the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection at commissioner@dataprotection.gov.cy.
