Privacy Policy

1. Revest Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy covers all personal data collected through the Revest website, through direct communication with our team and during the process of onboarding, property enquiries, digital-asset transaction coordination or compliance checks. It applies to website visitors, potential buyers, registered clients and any individual engaging with our services. This Privacy Policy is intended to operate alongside our Terms & Conditions; where inconsistencies arise, legal obligations and regulatory requirements take precedence.

2. Information We Collect

Revest collects personal information that you provide directly, including your name, nationality, date of birth, passport or Emirates ID details, contact information, property preferences and any documentation submitted during enquiries or onboarding. We also collect AML/KYC documentation required under UAE law, such as source of funds, source of wealth evidence, bank statements, crypto transaction histories, wallet logs and other verification documents as reasonably requested. Additionally, certain data is collected automatically when you visit our website, including IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited and cookie or tracking data. Some regulated or sensitive information, such as sanctions screening results or compliance findings, may also be collected when legally necessary under AML/CFT obligations.

3. How We Use Your Personal Information

Revest uses your personal information to deliver and improve our services, respond to enquiries, recommend suitable properties, arrange viewings and communicate with you regarding your requirements. We also process your information to fulfil our legal obligations as a Designated Non-Financial Business and Profession (DNFBP), including identity verification, AML/CFT screening and enhanced due diligence. Where digital-asset transactions are involved, your information may be used to coordinate with licensed third-party payment providers. Website interaction data is used to ensure security, enhance user experience and analyse site performance. With appropriate legal permission, we may also use your information for marketing communications, property updates and market insights.

4. Legal Basis for Processing Data

Revest processes personal data on several lawful grounds, including contractual necessity when responding to enquiries, providing services, compliance with UAE legal and regulatory requirements relating to AML/CFT. Legitimate interests in improving our services or communicating with existing clients and consent where you have opted into marketing communications or accepted non-essential cookies. Some data may be processed under more than one legal basis depending on the context.

5. Data Retention

Revest retains personal data only for as long as necessary to meet the purpose for which it was collected or as required by applicable law. AML/KYC documentation and transaction records are retained for a minimum period mandated by UAE regulation, typically five years. Website analytics data, marketing information and enquiry records are kept for operational or legal purposes, after which they are securely deleted or anonymised. If you request data deletion, we may be obliged to retain certain information where required by law or regulatory authorities.

6. Sharing Your Information

Revest may share your information with third parties where it is necessary to deliver our services, fulfil regulatory obligations or process digital-asset transactions. This includes licensed payment providers, property developers, trustees, banks, financial institutions, sanctions screening platforms and cloud-based CRM or IT service providers. We may also share data with UAE authorities such as the Ministry of Economy, the Financial Intelligence Unit (goAML), DLD, RERA, law enforcement or courts where legally required. Revest does not sell personal data under any circumstances. All third parties receiving data are expected to maintain confidentiality and apply appropriate security measures.

7. International Transfers

Some of the service providers and systems used by Revest may be located outside the United Arab Emirates, including in the EU, UK or United States. Where personal data is transferred internationally, Revest ensures that such transfers comply with applicable data-protection requirements and take place with adequate safeguards. By using our services or submitting information, you consent to such international transfers for legitimate operational purposes.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, correct or update your information. The right to object to or restrict certain types of processing, the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent and the right to request deletion of your data. These rights may be limited in circumstances where Revest is obligated by UAE law to retain certain information, particularly relating to AML/CFT compliance. All requests will be processed in accordance with applicable laws.
