1. Who we are

Retire Destinations (the "Site") is operated by Multiligo Reklam Bilişim Pazarlama ve Danışmanlık Limited Şirketi ("we", "us", "our"), a limited company registered in Turkey under registration number 320202-5, with registered office at Acıbadem Mah. Çeçen Sk. Akasya A Kule Kent Etabı Blok 25A/150, Üsküdar, Istanbul, Turkey.

We are also registered with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) under reference ZC121768.

For any privacy-related question, contact us at info@multiligo.com.

2. Scope of this policy

This Privacy Policy applies to personal data we collect through www.retiredestinations.com and any related sub-domains. It does not apply to third-party websites linked from our pages — those have their own privacy policies which you should review separately.

3. Personal data we collect

We collect personal data only when you actively provide it or when it is strictly necessary to operate the site:

• Contact form submissions — name, email address, message content, when you contact us via the contact form or by email.
• Newsletter signups — email address (and optionally first name) when you subscribe to our newsletter.
• Wizard answers — your responses to the Match Wizard are processed in your browser only. They are not transmitted to our servers and are not stored by us.
• Technical data — IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring page, and pages visited, collected automatically by our hosting provider for security and abuse prevention.
• Cookies and similar technologies — see our Cookie Policy for details.

We do not knowingly collect data from children under 16. We do not collect special-category data (health, biometric, political opinions, etc.) and ask that you do not send any.

4. Legal bases for processing (GDPR / UK GDPR)

• Consent — for non-essential cookies and newsletter subscriptions. You may withdraw consent at any time.
• Performance of a contract — when you ask us for information or services, we use your data to respond to that request.
• Legitimate interests — to keep the site secure, prevent abuse, analyse aggregate usage, and improve our content. We balance these interests against your rights and freedoms.
• Legal obligation — to comply with applicable laws and respond to lawful requests from public authorities.

5. How long we keep your data

• Contact form messages: up to 24 months after the last correspondence, then deleted.
• Newsletter subscriptions: until you unsubscribe (one-click link in every email).
• Technical/security logs: up to 12 months.
• Cookie preferences: up to 12 months (see Cookie Policy).

6. How we share your data

We do not sell your personal data. We may share it only with carefully selected service providers acting as data processors on our behalf — for example, our hosting and email infrastructure providers. All processors are bound by written contracts requiring GDPR-equivalent protection.

Where data is transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses, the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, or adequacy decisions issued by the European Commission or the UK ICO.

We may disclose your data when legally required (court order, lawful authority request) or to protect our rights, property, or safety.

7. Your rights

Under the EU GDPR, UK GDPR and Turkey's Law No. 6698 (KVKK), you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you;
• Have inaccurate or incomplete data corrected;
• Request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten");
• Restrict or object to certain processing;
• Withdraw consent at any time (where consent is the basis);
• Receive your data in a portable, machine-readable format;
• Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority — the UK ICO ( ico.org.uk ), your local EU data protection authority, or KVKK in Turkey ( kvkk.gov.tr).

To exercise any of these rights, email info@multiligo.com. We respond within 30 days.

8. Security

We apply appropriate technical and organisational safeguards — HTTPS everywhere, encrypted backups, restricted internal access, and routine security review. No online service is ever 100% secure; if you discover a vulnerability, please report it responsibly to info@multiligo.com.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of the page reflects the most recent change. Material changes will be announced on the Site and, where appropriate, by email.
