Last updated: 1 October 2026
Who we are
Greening Malta is an independent platform providing information and signposting to environmental resources relating to Malta. We are the data controller for the personal data described in this policy.
For any privacy question or to exercise your data protection rights, contact us at info@greeningmalta.com.
What data we collect and why
-
Analytics data. If you accept analytics cookies, our analytics provider may collect information such as pages visited, device information and approximate location to help us understand how the platform is used and improve our content. Analytics will not run until you have given the required consent. Lawful basis: your consent.
-
Contact and enquiries. If you contact us through the platform or by email, we may process information such as your name, email address and message in order to respond to you. Lawful basis: our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries.
-
Technical data. Some technical information may be processed automatically by our website and hosting providers where necessary to operate, maintain and secure the platform.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your personal data. We may use third-party providers necessary to operate the platform, including:
-
website hosting and infrastructure providers;
-
analytics providers, where enabled and where you have given the required consent;
-
email or contact-form providers, where used; and
-
security and technical service providers.
Some providers may process data outside the EU/EEA. Where required, appropriate safeguards will be used for such transfers.
Links to other websites
Greening Malta provides links to external websites, including government bodies, environmental organisations, research organisations and other information resources.
When you follow a link, you leave the Greening Malta platform. We do not control how external websites collect, use or protect personal data. Each external website is responsible for its own privacy practices and should have its own privacy policy or privacy notice.
A link on Greening Malta does not mean that we are responsible for the privacy practices of the linked website.
How long we keep it
We keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by law.
Contact and enquiry information is generally kept for as long as necessary to deal with the enquiry and for a reasonable period afterwards where appropriate.
Your rights
Under the GDPR, you may have the right to access, correct or erase your personal data, restrict or object to certain processing, and request data portability where applicable. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time.
To exercise your rights, contact info@greeningmalta.com.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with Malta's Information and Data Protection Commissioner (IDPC).
