This Privacy Policy describes how QaterVisa (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you visit https://qatarvisascheck.com (the “Site”).
Independence Disclaimer: QaterVisa is an independent, privately operated informational resource. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or officially connected to the Qatar Ministry of Interior (MOI), the Qatar Visa Center (QVC), Metrash, or any Qatari government agency. Any visa or ID status checks you perform should be done directly through the official government channels we describe in our guides.
Information We Collect
Information You Provide Directly
- Visa/ID status lookup tools: If you use a status-check form on this Site, we may collect the passport or visa number, nationality, and email address you enter, in order to [process/relay] your request. We do not use this information for any purpose beyond fulfilling that specific request.
- Comments: When you leave a comment, we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser user agent string, to help with spam detection.
Information Collected Automatically
- Standard technical data such as IP address, browser type, and device information.
- Usage data collected through Google’s Site Kit, which may include Google Analytics, to help us understand how visitors use the Site.
- Cookies, as described below.
Comments
An anonymized string created from your email address (a “hash”) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check whether you are a Gravatar user. The Gravatar service’s privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the Site, avoid uploading images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the Site can download and extract any location data from images on the Site.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on the Site, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience, so you don’t have to re-enter this information for future comments. These cookies last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we also set cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last two days, and screen options cookies last a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks. Logging out removes your login cookies.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content From Other Websites
Pages on this Site may include embedded content (for example, videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves in exactly the same way as if you had visited that other website directly.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content — including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:
- Service providers who help us operate the Site (for example, hosting providers and analytics services such as Google Site Kit).
- Legal authorities, if required to comply with a legal obligation or valid legal request.
If you request a password reset, your IP address is included in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely, so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically rather than holding them in a moderation queue.
If you register on the Site, we also store the personal information in your user profile. Registered users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except their username). Site administrators can also view and edit that information.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account on this Site, or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you’ve provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, except data we’re required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Depending on your location, you may have additional rights under applicable law (such as the GDPR or CCPA), including the right to access, correct, or restrict our use of your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below.
Children’s Privacy
This Site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last updated” date.
