Privacy Policy

Effective Date: May 22, 2026

Flowarde is an independent editorial register based in Riyadh. We take the privacy of our correspondents — botanists, garden historians, visiting researchers, conservation architects — seriously. This policy describes the limited personal data we collect and how it is handled.

1. Information We Collect

We only collect personal information that you explicitly submit through our correspondence form. This typically includes your name, email address, institutional affiliation, and the contents of your inquiry. We do not run tracking cookies, advertising pixels, or third-party marketing scripts on this register.

2. Purpose of Data Processing

Any information you send is used solely to coordinate visits, answer editorial questions, verify research credentials, or process species index queries. We do not sell, trade, or share your contact details with any external commercial party.

3. Security & Storage

Correspondence is stored on private servers using industry-standard security. Because Flowarde operates on a non-commercial, editorial basis, we retain inquiry records for two years from the date of last contact, after which they are deleted unless you specifically request earlier removal.

4. Your Rights

You may request a copy of any personal data we hold about you, or request that we delete your record from our correspondence archive at any time. Please submit such requests via the correspondence form.

5. Policy Updates

We may update this policy from time to time to match local data-protection regulations of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Any changes will be posted directly on this page with an updated effective date.
