JIA Advisory — Judy International Advisory

Effective Date: 26 September 2026 Last Updated: 26 September 2026

JIA Advisory (“JIA Advisory”, “JIA”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is the public-facing brand of Judy International Advisory. We provide consulting and advisory services through our website and related communication channels.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, protect, retain, and otherwise process Personal Data when you visit our website, communicate with us, or submit an inquiry through our contact forms.

We are committed to handling Personal Data responsibly and in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, including the Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) and its Implementing Regulations, where applicable.

1. Who We Are

JIA Advisory acts as the Controller of Personal Data processed through the website where we determine the purposes and means of processing.

For privacy-related questions, requests, or concerns, you may contact us at:

2. Personal Data We Collect

Depending on how you interact with our website, we may collect the following Personal Data:

Contact and inquiry information

When you submit an inquiry through our contact form, we may collect:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Organization or company name, if provided
  • Phone number, if provided
  • Service of interest, if selected
  • Message or other information you choose to provide

The contact form may also process technical fields used to protect the form from automated or abusive submissions, such as a security nonce or hidden anti-bot field.

We do not intentionally request sensitive Personal Data through the website contact form.

You should not submit sensitive or confidential information through the contact form unless it is specifically requested by JIA Advisory through an appropriate and secure channel.

3. How We Collect Personal Data

We collect Personal Data primarily when you voluntarily provide it to us, including when you:

  • Submit the website contact form;
  • Contact us using an email address published on the website;
  • Communicate with us regarding our services; or
  • Interact with the website through analytics or measurement technologies that may be enabled in the production environment.

We aim to collect only Personal Data that is relevant and reasonably necessary for the applicable purpose.

4. Why We Use Personal Data

We may process Personal Data for the following purposes:

Responding to inquiries

Information submitted through the contact form may be used to:

  • Respond to your inquiry;
  • Understand your requirements;
  • Identify the relevant JIA Advisory service or practice;
  • Communicate with you regarding your request; and
  • Arrange further discussions where appropriate.

Providing and managing advisory services

Where you become a client or prospective client, information may also be processed as necessary to communicate with you, manage the relevant engagement, and provide requested advisory services.

Website operation and security

Technical information may be processed where necessary to operate, maintain, secure, and protect the website and its forms against misuse, automated submissions, or security incidents.

Website analytics and improvement

Subject to applicable requirements and the configuration of the production website, JIA Advisory may use:

  • Google Analytics 4 (GA4);
  • Google Search Console; and
  • Microsoft Clarity

to understand website usage, improve website performance and content, measure engagement, and identify usability issues.

Where consent is required for a particular analytics or tracking technology, JIA Advisory will obtain and manage that consent in accordance with applicable requirements.

5. Legal Basis for Processing

JIA Advisory processes Personal Data only where there is an applicable legal basis under the PDPL and its Implementing Regulations.

Depending on the circumstances, processing may be based on:

  • Your consent, where consent is required and obtained;
  • Taking steps at your request before entering into a contractual relationship;
  • Performance of a contract or provision of requested services;
  • Compliance with a legal or regulatory obligation; or
  • Another lawful basis permitted under applicable law.

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent, subject to applicable legal requirements and circumstances in which another lawful basis permits or requires continued processing.

6. Contact Form and Email Processing

When you submit the website contact form, the information you provide is processed for the purpose of responding to your inquiry.

The website contact form sends the submitted information by email using the website's configured mail delivery service. JIA Advisory may receive and manage these communications through hosting email services and Gmail.

Contact form submissions are not intentionally stored as records in the website's WordPress database.

Once received, the information may remain within the applicable email account, email systems, backups, or other systems used to manage business communications for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, subject to applicable legal or regulatory retention requirements.

7. Third-Party Service Providers

JIA Advisory may use third-party service providers to operate and improve the website and business communication environment.

Depending on the production configuration, these may include:

  • Hostinger — website hosting and related infrastructure;
  • Gmail / Google services — business email and related communication services;
  • Google Analytics 4 — website analytics;
  • Google Search Console — website search performance and technical monitoring; and
  • Microsoft Clarity — website usage and interaction analysis.

Third-party providers may process information on our behalf or independently according to their own applicable terms and privacy policies.

JIA Advisory does not sell Personal Data.

The actual providers and technical configuration used in production may change over time. Where a material change affects how Personal Data is processed, this Privacy Policy may be updated accordingly.

8. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The website may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for website functionality, security, analytics, or performance.

The production website may use analytics and interaction-measurement technologies, including GA4 and Microsoft Clarity.

The types of cookies and similar technologies used may depend on the services enabled on the website at any given time.

Where applicable law requires consent before non-essential cookies or tracking technologies are used, JIA Advisory will provide the appropriate consent mechanism.

You may also be able to control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect some website functionality.

9. Data Storage and Geographic Processing

Personal Data may be stored or processed using JIA Advisory's business systems and third-party service providers, including hosting and email service providers.

Website infrastructure is hosted through Hostinger. Business email may be managed through hosting email services and Gmail.

Because third-party cloud and email providers may use infrastructure located in different countries, Personal Data may, depending on the provider's technical architecture and account configuration, be processed or stored outside the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Where Personal Data is transferred or processed outside the Kingdom, JIA Advisory will apply the requirements and safeguards applicable under the PDPL, its Implementing Regulations, and other applicable regulations.

JIA Advisory does not represent that all third-party infrastructure used by the website is physically located within the Kingdom unless specifically stated in the applicable service configuration.

10. How Long We Keep Personal Data

JIA Advisory retains Personal Data only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by applicable law.

For example, information submitted through a contact inquiry may be retained while it is reasonably necessary to respond to the inquiry, manage the related business communication, establish or manage a potential or actual engagement, or satisfy applicable legal or regulatory requirements.

When Personal Data is no longer necessary for its intended purpose and there is no legal or other applicable basis for continued retention, JIA Advisory will take reasonable steps to securely delete, destroy, anonymize, or otherwise dispose of the information in accordance with applicable requirements.

11. Data Security

JIA Advisory takes reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect Personal Data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, misuse, or destruction.

These measures may include:

  • Limiting access to Personal Data to authorized persons where reasonably required;
  • Using appropriate authentication and access controls;
  • Applying security measures to website forms and communications;
  • Maintaining appropriate technical protections for website infrastructure; and
  • Reviewing security and service configurations as the website evolves.

No electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted through the Internet.

12. Disclosure of Personal Data

JIA Advisory may disclose or provide access to Personal Data where necessary for legitimate business or operational purposes, including to:

  • Service providers supporting website hosting and infrastructure;
  • Email and communication service providers;
  • Analytics and website measurement providers, where enabled;
  • Professional advisers or service providers where reasonably necessary; or
  • Competent authorities where disclosure is required or permitted by applicable law.

JIA Advisory does not sell Personal Data.

We will not disclose Personal Data for purposes incompatible with the purpose for which it was collected unless permitted or required by applicable law.
