At Monterizo Limited, we value privacy not as a legal requirement, but as a matter of professional trust. This document outlines how we handle personal data that may be shared with us through our website, business communication, or professional collaboration.
Our Identity
Monterizo Limited is a Cyprus-based company (HE 409253) headquartered at:
Monterizo acts as the data controller for the personal data collected through our website and communication channels. For privacy-related inquiries, contact us at: ceo@monterizo-cyprus.com.
Under Article 37 of the GDPR, Monterizo is not required to appoint a Data Protection Officer (DPO), as our core activities do not involve large-scale or systematic processing of sensitive personal data. However, we remain fully committed to data protection and have designated internal contacts for handling privacy-related matters.
What We Collect – And Why
We only collect information you provide voluntarily. That typically includes:
Your name;
Email address;
Company name;
Phone number;
Any details you include in a contact form or correspondence.
We do not collect sensitive personal data (e.g. health, biometric, political opinions), and we do not track users across websites.
We use your data strictly to:
Respond to inquiries and establish communication;
Explore business cooperation;
Deliver services or proposals upon request;
Maintain records for ongoing or past professional collaboration.
Retention: Minimal and Purpose-Based
We retain information only for as long as it’s relevant:
Contact requests: up to 12 months after the last interaction;
Client correspondence: during active engagement, and for a reasonable period (typically up to 3 years) thereafter to protect our legal interests or resolve any post-engagement matters;
Legal obligations: as required by applicable laws (e.g. accounting, tax).
Legal Basis for Processing
Depending on the context, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases under Article 6 of the GDPR:
Your consent (e.g., when submitting forms);
Our legitimate interest in responding to inquiries, improving services, and securing our systems;
Contractual necessity, where applicable;
Legal obligations, such as accounting and regulatory compliance.
International Data Transfers
Some services we rely on (such as secure email and hosting) may process data outside the EU/EEA. In such cases, we ensure:
Providers adhere to Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent safeguards;
Data remains encrypted and access-controlled;
No data is shared with unauthorized third parties.
Our Approach to Consent
When you submit data via our website, you do so intentionally. That action serves as a clear indication of consent for processing in the context you provided it.
We don’t collect your data via passive means. No hidden fields. No third-party lead scraping. No automatic profiling.
Cookies & Web Analytics
We use only basic, essential cookies and optional analytics to monitor website performance.
We do not currently maintain a separate Cookies Policy, as our use of cookies is limited to essential functionality and privacy-focused analytics that do not identify individual users. Should our use of cookies change in the future, we will update this notice accordingly and provide any required consent mechanisms.
You can control or disable cookies in your browser settings at any time.
Your Data Rights
As an individual based in the EU, UK, or comparable jurisdiction, you have the right to:
Access any data we hold about you
Request correction of inaccurate information
Ask for deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten")
Restrict or object to certain uses of your data
Receive your data in portable format (if applicable)
Withdraw consent at any time
To exercise any of these rights, contact: ceo@monterizo-cyprus.com. We treat all privacy-related requests seriously and respond promptly.
Data Security Practices
We implement both technical and organizational measures to safeguard your data:
Encrypted traffic (SSL/TLS);
Controlled system access and password protection;
Email security and anti-phishing controls;
Internal confidentiality policies and staff training;
Regular infrastructure monitoring.
Despite best efforts, no online system is 100% secure. You use our services at your own risk.
Transparency on Third Parties
We may use third-party service providers (e.g., email platforms, cloud infrastructure, analytics) to support our operations. They act as data processors and access your data only under strict confidentiality and processing agreements.
We do not sell, rent, or disclose your data for commercial gain.
Additional Information for U.S. Visitors
We do not knowingly collect or process sensitive personal data as defined under U.S. state privacy laws, such as:
Online behavior or browsing activity for profiling.

We may revise this notice from time to time to reflect legal, technical, or operational changes. The current version is always available at https://monterizo- cyprus.com/privacy. Significant updates will be clearly indicated.
