Welcome to Thriving Expat. Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website Thriving Expat.com, including any other media form, media channel, mobile website, or mobile application related or connected thereto (collectively, the “Site”). Please read this privacy policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access the site.

1. Collection of Your Information

We only collect personal information if you voluntarily provide it to us, for example when you send us a contact message, subscribe to updates via the homepage newsletter form, or create an account where applicable. The information we may collect includes your name and email address.

2. Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies where needed for session management, authentication, security, and site reliability. When you accept the cookie notice, your choice is stored in browser localStorage on your device so we do not show the banner again; that value is not sent to our servers as an HTTP cookie. If we later need consent to be readable on the server (for example, gated analytics), we may switch to or add a small first-party cookie and will update this policy.

3. Disclosure of Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We use service providers (for example hosting and database providers) to operate the site; they process data only as needed to provide those services. We may disclose information if required by law or to protect our rights.

4. Security of Your Information

We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information. However, no security system is infallible, and we cannot guarantee complete security.
