  • Legal requirements — where required by a court or regulatory authority

Security

We use industry-standard encryption and security measures. No system is completely secure, so please keep your login details safe. If a data breach occurs, we will act promptly and notify you where required.

Children

The platform is not directed at children under 18. We do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child has registered, contact us at info@waad.tech and we will delete the account.

Legal Framework

This Privacy Policy operates under the laws and regulations of the Republic of Iraq. Any disputes fall under the jurisdiction of the courts of Baghdad.

If any provision conflicts with Iraqi law, that provision is invalid, but the rest of this policy remains in full effect.

Language

This policy is written in English for accessibility. In case of any discrepancy, the Arabic version prevails.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by email or app notification. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised policy.
