Legal
Last updated: 5 November 2026
We respect your privacy. This policy explains what personal information we collect through diasporatohome.com, why, who we share it with, and the choices and rights you have.
This website, diasporatohome.com, is run by Diaspora To Home, a business operated by Lorraine Wright MBE ("we", "us"). We help people in the Ghanaian diaspora buy, rent, build and sell property in Ghana. For the personal information described in this policy, we are the "controller": we decide why and how it is used.
Questions about your information: info@diasporatohome.com.
What we hold depends on how you use the site.
Please do not send us sensitive information such as health details, passport or bank details in forms or chat unless we have asked for it.
| What we do | Legal reason (UK GDPR) |
|---|---|
| Reply to your enquiry, book calls, introduce you to developers, agents or partners you ask about, and deliver services or products you ask for | Contract, or steps you ask us to take before a contract |
| Send you emails, texts or WhatsApp messages about our services, guides and events | Your consent. You can withdraw it at any time |
| Use analytics and optional embedded content (such as videos) on the site | Your consent, through our cookie banner (UK and Europe); our legitimate interest in understanding how the site is used (elsewhere) |
| Check documents and details of properties you ask us to list; use your photos on our social media if you agree | Legitimate interests (protecting buyers and our reputation) and, for social media use of photos, your consent |
| Keep the site secure, prevent spam and fraud, and keep business records | Legitimate interests, and legal obligations (for example accounting records) |
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with the people and companies that help us run the business, and only as needed:
Some of the companies above are based, or store data, in the United States or other countries. Where your information leaves the UK, we rely on safeguards the law allows, such as approved standard contract terms or an adequacy arrangement. Because our work involves property in Ghana, we may also send your details to people in Ghana when you ask us to connect you with them.
We send marketing only if you have opted in. Every email has an unsubscribe link, and you can reply STOP to text messages or tell us at info@diasporatohome.com. We will stop promptly.
We keep information only as long as we need it for the reasons above. We review our records from time to time and delete or anonymise information we no longer need. Records we must keep by law, such as payment and accounting records, are kept for the period the law requires. If you ask us to delete your information, we will do so unless we have a legal reason to keep it.
You have the right to ask us to:
To use any of these rights, email info@diasporatohome.com. We aim to reply within one month. If you are unhappy with how we handle your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113. We would like the chance to put things right first.
We use reputable providers, access controls and secure connections (HTTPS) to protect your information. No system is completely secure, so please take care when sending information online.
Our website and services are for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.
We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
