Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Relocate Armenia (“we,” “us,” “our”) collects, uses, and protects personal data when you visit relocatearmenia.com or contact us by phone. We follow the European General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679, “GDPR”) as our default standard worldwide because a meaningful share of our prospective clients are based in or process data subject to EU rules.
If anything in this notice is unclear, write to us at the contact path below — we treat privacy questions the same way we treat compliance questions on a client engagement: directly and on the record.
1. Who is the data controller
Relocate Armenia is the data controller for personal data processed through this website.
- Name: Relocate Armenia
- Location: Yerevan, Armenia (street address pending)
- Phone: +374 77 320 208
- Privacy contact: the contact page is the routing point until a dedicated email address is published
We are not currently required to appoint a Data Protection Officer under Article 37 GDPR. If that changes, we will publish the DPO contact details here.
2. What personal data we collect
We collect the minimum personal data needed to operate the site and answer prospective-client inquiries. There is no contact form, no newsletter signup, no account creation, and no e-commerce checkout. The data categories are:
Website analytics — Vercel Web Analytics. When you visit a page, our hosting provider (Vercel Inc.) records: the URL path, the HTTP referrer, your browser and device type, the country derived from your IP address, and a one-way hash of the IP plus user agent that distinguishes unique visitors within a 24-hour window. Vercel Web Analytics does not use cookies, does not store the raw IP address, and does not assemble cross-site profiles. See Vercel’s analytics privacy documentation for the underlying technical specification.
Performance telemetry — Vercel Speed Insights. When your browser finishes rendering a page, the same hosting provider receives anonymous Core Web Vitals measurements (Largest Contentful Paint, Interaction to Next Paint, Cumulative Layout Shift). These measurements are used to detect performance regressions and are not tied to your identity.
Server access logs. Standard HTTP request logs maintained by Vercel for security, abuse detection, and uptime monitoring. These contain the IP address, timestamp, requested path, response code, and user agent. We do not query these logs for marketing or analytics.
Voluntary inquiry data. If you choose to call us at the number above, we may write down information you share — your name, employer, deployment scope, time horizon, and any specifics relevant to scoping an engagement. This information is recorded only because you provided it for the purpose of the inquiry.
We do not collect special categories of personal data (Article 9 GDPR), data relating to criminal convictions (Article 10 GDPR), or data from children. The site is not intended for individuals under 18.
3. Why we process this data (lawful basis)
Each processing activity has a single, identifiable lawful basis under Article 6 GDPR:
| Processing activity | Lawful basis | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Vercel Web Analytics | Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)) | Understand which pages are read and improve content quality |
| Vercel Speed Insights | Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)) | Detect performance regressions affecting real users |
| Server access logs | Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)) | Security, abuse detection, uptime |
| Voluntary inquiry data from a phone call | Pre-contractual measures (Art. 6(1)(b)) | Scope and respond to your engagement inquiry |
Where we rely on legitimate interest, we have weighed our interest in operating and improving the site against your privacy expectations. Because no cookies are set, no cross-site tracking occurs, and no raw IP addresses are stored, we consider the privacy impact low. You retain the right to object — see section 8.
4. Cookies and tracking
This site does not set any cookies. Vercel Web Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights are cookieless by design. Because there are no cookies, no consent banner is shown and none is legally required under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive 2002/58/EC for the storage-of-information-on-terminal-equipment trigger.
If we ever add functionality that requires cookies — for example, a session-based contact form or an embedded video — we will update this notice and present a consent interface before the cookies are placed.
5. How long we keep the data
| Data | Retention |
|---|---|
| Vercel Web Analytics | 12 months rolling window, then aggregated and the per-event records are deleted |
| Vercel Speed Insights | 12 months rolling window |
| Server access logs | Up to 30 days, then deleted |
| Voluntary inquiry data | Up to 24 months from the inquiry, then deleted unless you become a client (in which case engagement records are governed by the engagement contract, not this policy) |
We do not retain personal data longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.
6. Who we share data with
We do not sell personal data and we do not share it with advertisers, brokers, or any third party for marketing purposes.
The only routine data recipient is our hosting and infrastructure processor:
- Vercel Inc., 440 N Barranca Avenue #4133, Covina, CA 91723, USA — provides hosting, CDN, web analytics, speed insights, and DDoS mitigation. Vercel is bound by a Data Processing Agreement that includes the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses. See Vercel’s DPA.
We may disclose personal data to a competent authority (Armenian, EU member state, or other) where required by law — for example, in response to a valid court order or a documented law-enforcement request. We do not voluntarily disclose data outside that requirement.
If we engage additional processors in the future (for example, an email service when we begin sending newsletters), we will list them here before processing begins.
7. International transfers
Vercel is headquartered in the United States and operates a global CDN. When you visit this site, your request is typically served from a Vercel edge location close to you (often within the EEA for European visitors), but the underlying control-plane operations are performed in the United States.
The transfer to the United States relies on:
- Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) under Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914, embedded in the Vercel Data Processing Agreement; and
- EU-US Data Privacy Framework — Vercel is self-certified under the EU-US DPF, which the European Commission found provides an adequate level of protection under Article 45 GDPR by Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/1795 of 10 July 2023.
Either mechanism is independently sufficient as a transfer safeguard. We rely on both for redundancy.
8. Your rights under the GDPR
If your personal data is processed by us, you have the following rights regardless of where you are located:
- Right of access (Article 15) — confirmation of whether we process your data, and a copy of it.
- Right to rectification (Article 16) — correction of inaccurate data.
- Right to erasure / “right to be forgotten” (Article 17) — deletion of data we no longer have a basis to retain.
- Right to restriction of processing (Article 18) — pausing processing while a dispute is resolved.
- Right to data portability (Article 20) — a machine-readable export of data you provided.
- Right to object (Article 21) — including the right to object to processing based on legitimate interest (section 3). If you object, we will stop processing unless we can show compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.
- Right not to be subject to automated decision-making (Article 22) — we do not perform automated decision-making or profiling.
- Right to withdraw consent — where we rely on consent (we currently do not, but this right would apply if we ever did).
9. How to exercise your rights
Contact us through the contact page or by phone at +374 77 320 208. State which right you are exercising and provide enough detail for us to identify the data in question. We will respond within one month of receiving your request, as required by Article 12(3) GDPR. Where a request is complex or we receive a large volume of requests, we may extend the response time by up to two further months, in which case we will tell you within the first month and explain the reason.
There is no fee to exercise your rights. We may charge a reasonable administrative fee or refuse to act on requests that are manifestly unfounded or excessive (Article 12(5) GDPR).
10. Right to lodge a complaint
If you believe we have processed your data unlawfully, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority.
- For Armenia: the Personal Data Protection Agency under the Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Armenia.
- For the European Union: the supervisory authority of the member state where you live, work, or where the alleged infringement occurred. The European Data Protection Board lists each national authority.
- For the United Kingdom: the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
You may lodge a complaint without first contacting us, although in most cases we can resolve concerns faster than a formal complaint process.
11. Security
We rely on Vercel’s infrastructure security controls for the hosting layer: TLS in transit, encrypted storage at rest, isolation between deployments, DDoS protection, and access controls on the Vercel control plane. The Vercel platform holds SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and ISO 27018 certifications.
For voluntary inquiry data, access is limited to the small team of account managers involved in client scoping. We do not process personal data on third-party hardware that we do not control.
12. Changes to this policy
We update this notice when our processing practices change — for example, when we add a new processor, a new data category, or a new transfer mechanism. Material changes will be reflected in the “Last updated” date at the top, and we will keep an internal change log. We will not retroactively reduce the protections that applied at the time you provided data.
13. Country-specific addenda
This is the universal text. Where local law imposes additional disclosures, an addendum will appear below. As of the date above, no addenda are required for the jurisdictions in which our prospective clients are located.
The Chinese-language version of this policy is at /zh/privacy-policy/ and is a translation of this English version. Where the two diverge, the English version controls.
