Privacy Notice

We are Lines Bidder. This notice explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, and the rights you have under the Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL). By creating an account you consent to the processing described here.

1. Who we are

We, Lines Bidder, operate this platform and are the controller of your personal data. For any privacy request or question, contact us at lines.bidder@gmail.com.

2. What personal data we collect

We collect only the data you provide when you register and use the Platform:

• Full name
• Email address
• Phone number
• Position (Captain / First Officer), aircraft type and base city
• Your password, stored only as a one-way hash (we never store or see your actual password)
• Your in-app preferences and bid selections
• Usage analytics: the pages you open and features you use, together with technical request metrics (response times, error counts) and the server's own resource usage. Feature/page usage is linked to your account so administrators can understand usage and keep the service healthy.

3. Why we collect it (purpose)

Your data is processed solely to operate the bidding platform: to verify and approve your account, authenticate you, display the schedule relevant to your aircraft and position, and let you build and manage your bid. We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or any unrelated purpose.

4. Legal basis

We process your data on the basis of your consent and as necessary to provide the service you request. You may withdraw your consent at any time (see Section 8); withdrawing consent may mean we can no longer provide you the service.

5. Who we share it with

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data, and we do not share it for marketing. Your data stays within the Platform’s own database. We rely only on the limited service providers needed to run the Platform:

• Cloud hosting: the server and database that run the Platform.
• Email delivery: to send account approval and password-reset messages to your address.

6. Where your data is stored (data residency)

Your data is hosted in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. We do not transfer your personal data outside the Kingdom except where permitted under the PDPL and its regulations.

7. How long we keep it (retention)

We keep your data only while your account is active. You can ask us to delete your account and your data at any time (for example, by sending us an email), and we will delete it. We do not keep accounts longer than needed.

8. Your rights under the PDPL

Subject to the PDPL, you have the right to:

• Be informed about how your data is processed;
• Access your personal data and obtain a copy;
• Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data;
• Request deletion of your data;
• Withdraw your consent at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, or to raise a concern about your data, please contact the admin at lines.bidder@gmail.com.

9. How we protect your data

We use industry-standard safeguards: encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS), one-way hashing of passwords, access controls, and administrative approval before accounts are activated.

10. Your responsibilities & the limits of our liability

Protecting personal data is an obligation of means, not of result: we commit to exercising the care of a diligent, professional party, but no system can guarantee absolute or perfect protection, and we do not warrant such a result.

• No guarantee against breach. We make reasonable efforts to comply with security standards, but no system can be guaranteed secure. We do not guarantee that data will never be breached or leaked, and we are not responsible if the platform is hacked or its data is leaked by any means.
• We never ask for your password. We will never request your password by email, message, phone, or any other channel, and we only ever store it as a one-way hash, so we cannot see it. Anyone asking you for your password is not us.
• Keep your account and sensitive details private. You are responsible for the confidentiality of your account. Sensitive data includes, by way of example and not limitation: your badge number, your position, your aircraft, your username, and your password. Do not disclose any of them to anyone.
• Disclosure by you. We are not responsible, and we disclaim all liability, if your personal data is leaked by you to any person, or if you give your account or any private or sensitive data to anyone other than the genuine account holder (the real beneficiary of the account). We are likewise not responsible for any laxity or negligence on your part in safeguarding your own data, in any form.
• Acceptance of these terms. By creating an account you acknowledge that you have read this notice and agree to all of its terms in full, without exception.

11. Changes to this notice

We may update this notice from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the Platform.
