Last updated: September 2026 GDPR & UK DPA 2018 Compliant

1. Commitment to Client Confidentiality

At The Plot Sale ("The Plot Sale", "we", "our"), we operate with the highest discretion expected by private individuals, family offices, and institutional investors. Confidentiality is the cornerstone of our multi-generational advisory practice.

This Privacy Policy details how we collect, safeguard, process, and retain your personal and transactional information across our London and Lahore operations, in compliance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018, and relevant international privacy regulations.

2. Information We Collect

We collect personal data strictly necessary to deliver strategic property advisory, facilitate site visits, and execute statutory compliance:

Direct Advisory Inquiries: Full legal name, official email address, mobile/WhatsApp telephone number, preferred contact hours, and geographic location.
Acquisition Parameters: Target asset classes (residential plots, commercial parcels, UK buy-to-let apartments), target budgets, preferred currency (GBP / PKR), and financing preferences.
AML / KYC Documentation: Certified government identification (passport / CNIC / NICOP), verified proof of address, source of wealth confirmation, and corporate ownership structure documents where mandated by anti-money laundering regulations.

3. Legal Basis & Purpose of Processing

Your personal information is processed under explicit lawful bases:

  • Contractual Performance: Providing tailored property dossiers, coordinating private viewings, drafting reservation memos, and liaising with conveyancing solicitors.
  • Statutory Obligation: Satisfying mandatory anti-money laundering (HMRC / FBR) and financial crime screening regulations.
  • Legitimate Interests: Curating high-value market intelligence, quarterly portfolio reports, and discreet off-market opportunities aligned with your historical criteria.

5. Cross-Border Data Transfers (London & Lahore)

As an international consultancy with dual headquarters in London (UK) and Lahore (Pakistan), client files may be securely accessed by accredited team members across both offices to facilitate seamless cross-border acquisitions (e.g., overseas Pakistani investors purchasing UK residential or Lahore prime plots).

All cross-border transfers are protected by standard contractual clauses (SCCs), role-based zero-trust authentication, and end-to-end encryption in compliance with UK International Data Transfer Agreements (IDTA).

6. Cookies, Analytics & Currency Preference Storage

We use strictly necessary and performance cookies to maintain site functionality:

  • Currency Preference: Storing your preferred viewing currency (GBP or PKR) in local browser storage.
  • Session & Security: Safeguarding administrative areas and preventing unauthorized automated submissions.
  • Anonymous Analytics: Aggregated, non-identifying telemetry to measure portal performance. We do not sell tracking data to third-party ad networks.
