This privacy policy explains what personal data we collect at Hassab, how we use it, who we share it with, how long we keep it, and the rights you have under Oman's Personal Data Protection Law (Royal Decree 6/2022) and applicable GCC privacy standards. It applies to our website, our application, and our customer support.
Who we are
In this policy "we", "us", and "Hassab" refer to Ramz technologies & AI SPC, a company registered in the Sultanate of Oman with its principal office in Muscat. RAMZ operates the Hassab service. You can contact our privacy officer at privacy@hassab.app.
What personal data we collect
We collect (a) account data you provide — name, work email, phone, company name, role, password hash, language and time-zone preference; (b) operational data your team enters into the application — invoices, bills, bank statements, VAT registrations, customer and vendor contact details; (c) technical data — IP address, browser and device information, log data, usage events; (d) communication data — emails, support tickets, demo notes; and (e) marketing data — newsletter sign-ups and event attendance you have opted into.
How we use it
We use personal data to provide and operate the service, authenticate users, deliver and bill the subscription, prevent abuse and fraud, improve the product, comply with our legal obligations including the OTA's record-retention requirements, communicate service changes, and (with consent or legitimate interest) send relevant product updates. We do not sell personal data and we do not use customer accounting data to train shared AI models.
Legal bases
We rely on (a) performance of contract for delivering the service to subscribers; (b) legitimate interests for product improvement, security, and fraud prevention; (c) consent for marketing emails and optional cookies; and (d) legal obligation for tax, audit, and regulatory record-keeping in Oman.
How we share it
We share personal data only with: (a) sub-processors who help us run the service — cloud hosting, email delivery, error monitoring, AI processing, payment processing — under written data-processing agreements; (b) messaging integrations you enable, such as WhatsApp; (c) professional advisers (auditors, lawyers) under confidentiality; and (d) competent authorities where required by Omani law.
Sub-processors
We use the following categories of sub-processors: (a) cloud hosting and storage; (b) email delivery — Resend; (c) AI and document recognition — OpenAI, Anthropic, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud; (d) payments — Tap Payments, which processes card details directly, so we never store full card numbers; and (e) messaging — WhatsApp (Meta), only when you enable the integration. We update this list when our providers change, and a detailed list is available on request at privacy@hassab.app.
Integrations
Some features connect Hassab to third-party services. When your company enables WhatsApp or another integration, the data needed to deliver it — such as client names, phone numbers, invoice or statement links, and message content — is sent to that provider. Integrations stay off until an authorised user turns them on, and the client consent controls in Hassab apply. Your company is responsible for having a lawful basis to contact its clients through these channels. Data sent to an integration provider is also handled under that provider's own terms and privacy policy.
AI processing
When you upload a document for OCR, import a bank statement, or use the AI assistant, the document, statement lines, or message is sent to one of our AI providers (the large-language-model and document-recognition services listed under Sub-processors) under a data-processing agreement. It is processed only to produce the requested output and is not used to train their models. Confidence scores and decisions are stored in your tenant.
International transfers
Some of our sub-processors are located outside Oman (notably in the EU, UK, and US). We rely on the safeguards in the relevant data-processing agreements (including standard contractual clauses where applicable) and on Oman PDPL provisions for cross-border transfers. Customers on the Finance plan can request regional storage.
Cookies
Our website uses strictly necessary cookies (session, language, and security/anti-CSRF), which are always on because the site cannot work without them. Optional analytics cookies are used only if you accept them in the cookie banner shown on your first visit; until then, no analytics are loaded. Your choice is stored in a cookie named hassab_cookie_consent for 12 months. You can change it at any time through "Cookie settings" in the website footer.
How long we keep it
Account and operational data is kept for the duration of your subscription plus 30 days for re-export, then deleted. Records subject to Oman tax law (invoices, bills, bank statements, VAT documents) are retained for 10 years (15 years for immovable-property records) under our retention schedule. Marketing data is kept until you unsubscribe.
Security
We apply technical and organisational measures including encryption in transit (TLS 1.2+), encryption at rest, role-based access control, multi-tenant database scoping at row level, audit logging of every action, periodic security review, and least-privilege production access. We notify affected customers and the Oman Personal Data Protection Centre as required in case of a personal-data breach.
Your rights
Under Oman's PDPL you have the right to (a) access your personal data, (b) correct inaccurate data, (c) request deletion subject to our legal retention obligations, (d) object to or restrict certain processing, (e) withdraw consent for processing based on consent, and (f) lodge a complaint with the Oman Personal Data Protection Centre. To exercise any of these rights, email privacy@hassab.app and we will respond within 30 days.
Children
Hassab is a B2B service. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor's data has reached us, contact privacy@hassab.app and we will remove it.
Changes to this policy
We update this policy when we change how we handle data. Material changes are announced in-app and by email at least 30 days before they take effect. The "last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
