WEBSITE VISITORS

Like most website operators, Global Visas Ltd collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Global Visas Ltd’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Global Visas Ltd’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Global Visas Ltd may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Global Visas Ltd also collects potentially personally-identifying information for any user requiring visa / passport / legalisation services and Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users. Global Visas Ltd only discloses logged in user, service data and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.

GATHERING OF PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING INFORMATION

Certain visitors to Global Visas Ltd’s websites choose to interact with Global Visas Ltd in ways that require Global Visas Ltd to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Global Visas Ltd gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who request visa services to provide their full name, email address, date of birth, passport no. and passport expiry date.

We look forward to working with you and meeting all your expectations.

Global Immigration Leader, Big 4

“Manny. You have really gone the extra mile in supporting the US Business Visitor Service. You have demonstrated real commitment and energy, working a late shift night while we try and find others to fill the position. I know that the other night you stayed until 4am. You are always so positive and your cheerful disposition and attention to detail has resulted in excellent client feedback. On Monday the key client came to London and she was effusive about the service. This is largely due the cover you provide.”

Internal stakeholder, Big 4

“Manny is a big reason why the move from (external provider) to the UK firm’s passport and visa provision has been so smooth. He’s an extremely likeable honest hard working guy who takes his role very seriously. We’re very fortunate to have him leading our dedicated team”

External client, Private practice

“Most of my contact was with Manpreet Singh Johal. He did the best job someone could imagine. Extraordinary service from his side.”

Team member, Big 4

“Working on two priority accounts is naturally pressurised especially where he has also been responsible for billing on both accounts; yet Manny delivers every time and this I believe is an exceptional quality.”
