Trust and compliance
Privacy and data handling
This page explains what MygrateUs stores in the current release, how it supports relocation planning,
and where to verify requirements with official sources.
What MygrateUs stores
- Account credentials managed by Django authentication (hashed passwords).
- Profile preferences you enter for relocation planning (passport, education, family stage, budget, climate, language, work field).
- Selected destination country, checklist progress, priorities, and due dates.
- Document vault files and document metadata (document type and upload timestamp).
What the data is used for
- Generate and maintain your destination-specific checklist and dashboard.
- Store and organise planning documents in your document vault.
- Support matching recommendations based on your questionnaire preferences.
- Power premium reminder settings and reminder queue previews (if enabled).
- When language translation is enabled, send page text snippets to Google Cloud Translation API to return translated content.
What MygrateUs does not do
- MygrateUs does not provide legal advice or immigration representation.
- MygrateUs does not submit visa applications or government forms on your behalf.
- MygrateUs does not replace official government immigration guidance and source verification.
Retention and deletion (current MVP behavior)
- Profile, checklist, and document records remain in your account until removed or reset.
- Checklist tasks can be updated or reopened at any time from the checklist page.
- Document vault files can be replaced or removed by the signed-in account owner.
- Demo seed/reset commands may create or restore a demo account for presentation use.
Security and access controls (current MVP)
- Authenticated pages require sign-in for onboarding, checklist, destination details, and document vault tools.
- Document deletion actions are user-scoped and require a signed-in account.
- Document uploads are validated server-side for file type, MIME type, and size before storage.
- Keyboard-visible focus states and accessible labels are used across core flows.
Important: This MVP demonstrates planning workflows and account-based organisation.
Do not upload highly sensitive originals in shared/public demo environments.
Source verification and planning boundaries
Country guidance in MygrateUs supports planning decisions. Routes, requirements, forms, and
deadlines can change and must be confirmed with official government sources.
- Use the official source links shown on each Destination Details page (after selecting a country).
- Recheck official sources before submitting documents, booking appointments, or making payments.
- Use MygrateUs as a planning layer, not a replacement for legal or government advice.
If you are evaluating the MVP, this page supports trust, transparency, and compliance positioning.
