Who we are

Yaldis Advisory Ltd (company no. 17346103, 167–169 Great Portland Street, London W1W 5PF) is the controller of your personal data. Contact: Yalda@yaldis.co.uk.

What we collect

From the free assessment: your name, contact details, date of birth, gender, nationality, marital status, country of residence and dependants; your education, English test and work history; your visa and travel history; your study goals; and any documents you choose to upload (for example your passport, transcripts or CV).

From consultation bookings: your name, email address, phone number (optional), time zone and any notes you add.

Why we use it, and our legal basis

To assess your profile, reply to you and arrange consultations, as steps you ask us to take before any agreement (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(b)). To keep our systems secure and our records accurate (our legitimate interests). To meet our accounting and legal duties (legal obligation). We send WhatsApp messages only if you tick the box asking for them (consent).

Who processes it for us

Cloudflare (website, private portal, database and document storage); Google (calendar and Google Meet invitations, and web fonts on this website); our email delivery provider; and Tally and Cal.com, which we use for forms and bookings while we move to our own system.

We do not sell your data or use it for advertising. Within Yaldis, an adviser can see your case only after our director has approved it and shared it with them. Some of these providers may process data outside the UK; where they do, it is protected by safeguards approved under UK law.

How long we keep it

If your assessment does not lead to an engagement, we delete it and any documents you uploaded 12 months after our last contact with you. If you become a client, we keep your records for 6 years after the engagement ends.

Your rights

You can ask us for access to your data, or to correct, delete, restrict or transfer it. You can object to our use of it, and withdraw any consent you have given, at any time, by emailing Yalda@yaldis.co.uk. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk).
