Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains how Qatar Visa Check (qvcvisacheck.com) collects, uses, stores and protects information when you use our website. By accessing and using this website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
1. About Qatar Visa Check
Qatar Visa Check is an independent information website that publishes guides about checking Qatar visa status and understanding Qatar visa rules. We are not part of, affiliated with, or endorsed by the Government of Qatar, the Ministry of Interior (MOI), the Qatar Visa Center (QVC), Hayya or Metrash.
2. Information We Collect
Information you give us. When you contact us through our contact form or by email, we receive your name, your email address and the contents of your message. Please do not send us your passport number, QID number, visa number or copies of your documents; we never need them.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our servers and service providers record standard log information when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device type, the pages you visit, the time and date of your visit and the page that referred you to us.
Cookies and similar technologies. We and our service providers may use cookies to keep the website working, to understand how readers use our pages, and to serve and measure advertising. You can control or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings.
3. How We Use Information
- To operate, maintain and improve the website and its guides
- To reply to messages and correction requests sent through our contact form
- To understand which topics readers need, so we can publish clearer and more useful guides
- To detect and prevent abuse, spam and technical problems
- To comply with legal obligations where they apply
4. Visa Status Information
Qatar Visa Check does not process visa status checks on its own servers. Our guides explain how to check your status on the official MOI, QVC and Metrash portals, and any passport, QID or visa details you enter there are submitted directly to those official services under their own privacy policies. We do not collect or store your passport number, QID number or visa number.
We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited information only in these situations:
- Service providers that help us run the website, such as hosting, analytics and advertising partners, who may process data on our behalf
- Legal reasons, when disclosure is required by law or needed to protect our rights, our readers or the security of the website
- Business changes, if the website is transferred to a new operator, under the same commitments described here
6. Third-Party Links and Services
Our guides link to official and third-party websites, including the MOI portal, the Qatar Visa Center, Hayya and Metrash. We do not control those websites, and their own privacy policies apply when you visit them. We recommend reading the privacy policy of any external website you use, especially before entering personal documents or payment details.
7. Data Retention
We keep contact form messages only for as long as needed to answer your message and handle any follow-up, and server logs for a limited period for security and analytics. When information is no longer needed, we delete it or anonymise it.
8. Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures, including HTTPS encryption, to protect the website and the information sent through it. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Your Rights
Depending on the laws that apply to you, you may have the right to ask what personal information we hold about you, to ask for a correction, or to ask us to delete it. To make a request, contact us through our Contact Us page and we will respond within a reasonable time.
10. Children’s Privacy
This website is written for adults arranging travel or work in Qatar. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the website or in legal requirements. The updated version will be published on this page with a new “Last updated” date.
