Anchor Estates is committed to protecting the personal data of individuals in the European Union and complying with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This page outlines our GDPR compliance practices and your rights under this regulation.
Our Commitment to GDPR
Although Anchor Estates operates primarily in Singapore, we recognize that some of our clients and website visitors may be located in the European Economic Area (EEA). We are committed to processing personal data in accordance with GDPR principles:
- Lawfulness, fairness, and transparency
- Purpose limitation
- Data minimization
- Accuracy
- Storage limitation
- Integrity and confidentiality
- Accountability
Legal Basis for Processing
We process your personal data only when we have a valid legal basis to do so. The legal bases we rely on include:
Consent
We process certain personal data based on your explicit consent, such as when you submit a service request form or subscribe to our newsletter. You may withdraw your consent at any time.
Contract Performance
We process personal data necessary to perform our contractual obligations when you engage our real estate services.
Legitimate Interests
We process certain data based on our legitimate business interests, such as improving our services, preventing fraud, and conducting marketing activities, provided these interests do not override your fundamental rights.
Legal Obligations
We process personal data when required to comply with legal obligations, such as tax regulations, anti-money laundering requirements, and real estate transaction regulations.
Your GDPR Rights
Under the GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
Right to Access
You have the right to request access to your personal data and receive a copy of the information we hold about you.
Right to Rectification
You have the right to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten)
You have the right to request deletion of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when the data is no longer necessary for the purposes it was collected or when you withdraw consent.
Right to Restrict Processing
You have the right to request restriction of processing your personal data in certain situations, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data or object to processing.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format and to transmit that data to another controller.
Right to Object
You have the right to object to processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.
Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making
You have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects or similarly significantly affects you.
Right to Withdraw Consent
Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

- Your full name and contact information
- A clear description of which right you wish to exercise

Data Breach Notification
In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you without undue delay, and in any case within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach, as required by GDPR.

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including:
- Service delivery and contract performance
- Compliance with legal obligations
- Resolution of disputes
- Enforcement of agreements
Once personal data is no longer necessary, we securely delete or anonymize it in accordance with our data retention policy.

Our services are not directed at children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect or process personal data of children. If we become aware that we have collected data from a child, we will take steps to delete such information promptly.
Supervisory Authority
You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the EU member state of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement, if you believe our processing of your personal data violates the GDPR.
