Privacy Policy
Last updated 7 September 2026
Aramco Investments, located at 11th Floor of the West Wing, Al-Midra Tower (Building 3304), Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, is the controller of personal data processed through this website and the institutional platform. This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, how long we keep it, and the rights available to you under the Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) and, where applicable, the EU/UK GDPR.
1. Data we collect
The categories we process depend on whether you browse the public site, contact us, or complete institutional onboarding.
- Identity and organization data: legal name, role, authority documents, corporate registry extracts, and beneficial-owner information.
- Contact data: business email, phone, office address, and correspondence.
- Compliance data: KYC/AML files, source-of-wealth materials, sanctions-screening results, and tax residency documentation.
- Account and transaction data: holdings, orders, allocations, login events, device identifiers, and support tickets.
- Technical data: IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and approximate location derived from IP.
- Communications: emails, meeting notes, and recordings where we have notified participants.
2. How we use data
- To evaluate applications and operate institutional accounts.
- To execute, settle, and report transactions you instruct.
- To meet anti-money-laundering, sanctions, tax, and record-keeping duties.
- To secure the platform, detect abuse, and investigate incidents.
- To communicate about onboarding, service changes, and support.
- To improve site performance and understand aggregate usage of public pages.
We do not sell personal data. We do not use onboarding or account data for unrelated consumer advertising.
3. Legal bases
Where GDPR or an equivalent regime applies, we rely on one or more of the following: performance of a contract or pre-contractual steps; compliance with legal obligations (including AML and sanctions law); legitimate interests such as securing our platform and communicating with professional counterparties; and consent where we ask for it (for example, optional cookies).
Under the PDPL, we process personal data for the purposes stated in this policy and do not process it contrary to those purposes without a lawful justification.
5. International transfers
We are established in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, at 11th Floor of the West Wing, Al-Midra Tower (Building 3304), Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. Some vendors or venues may process data in the EU, UK, United States, or other countries. Where a destination does not provide an adequate level of protection, we use recognized transfer mechanisms such as standard contractual clauses and supplementary safeguards as appropriate.
6. Retention
We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purpose collected, including statutory retention. KYC and transaction records are typically retained for at least ten years after the end of the business relationship, or longer if a legal hold, investigation, or accounting requirement applies. Website logs are kept for a shorter operational period unless needed for security review.
7. Security
We apply layered technical and organizational measures aligned with institutional custody and Saudi data-protection expectations. These include access control, encryption in transit, least-privilege administration, vendor due diligence, and incident-response procedures. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure; you must also protect your own credentials and devices.
8. Your rights
Subject to legal limits (including AML record-keeping), you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, or portability of personal data, and you may object to certain processing. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw it without affecting prior lawful processing.
Submit requests to privacy@aramcoinvestments.com. We may need to verify your identity and authority to act for an institution. You may also lodge a complaint with the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) or, if GDPR applies, your local supervisory authority.
10. Children and consumer users
The services are designed for institutional and professional counterparties. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children, and we do not target the platform at individuals under 18.
11. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The revised date will appear at the top of this page. Material changes affecting active clients will be communicated through the account relationship where required.
