Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information Olim Advice collects when you use this website, how we use it, and the choices and rights you have. We keep it short and plain.

Who we are

Olim Advice ("we", "us", "our") publishes free guidance for people considering or making aliyah. This website is operated by Oleh Advice, 5 Ehud Manor Street, Be'er Ya'akov, Israel. For any privacy question, contact us at help@olimadvice.com.

Information we collect

We collect only what we need to run the site and respond to you:

• Information you give us — such as your name, email address, and message when you use a contact form, subscribe, or get in touch.
• Information collected automatically — such as your device and browser type, approximate location, pages viewed, and how you arrived, gathered through cookies and similar technologies.

We do not ask you to create an account to read our guides, and we do not knowingly collect more than is described here.

How we use it

• To respond to your enquiries and provide the information you request
• To operate, maintain, and improve the website and its content
• To understand which guides are useful, using aggregated analytics
• To send updates only where you have asked to receive them
• To comply with our legal obligations

Cookies and analytics

We use cookies and analytics tools (including Google Analytics and Squarespace Analytics) to understand how the site is used and to improve it. You can control or block cookies through your browser settings; some features may not work as well if you do. Where required, we ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies.

Sharing and third parties

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers who help us run the site (such as hosting, email, and analytics providers), and only as needed for them to perform those services, or where the law requires it.

International transfers

We operate across the United Kingdom, the United States, and Israel, so your information may be processed in any of these locations. Where information is transferred internationally, we take steps to ensure it remains appropriately protected.

How long we keep it

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes above, or as required by law, and then delete or anonymise it.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information, to object to certain processing, and to withdraw consent. To exercise any of these, contact us at help@olimadvice.com.

Children

This website is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Security

We use reasonable measures to protect your information, though no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date above shows when it last changed, and continued use of the site means you accept the current version.
