Privacy Policy
Last updated: 7 November 2026
This policy explains what personal data is collected on mizrahi-tfahot-case.com, for what purposes, to whom it is passed and what your rights are. It is intended to meet the duty to inform under section 11 of Israel's Privacy Protection Law, 5741-1981, as amended by Amendment No. 13 (in force since 14 August 2025).
1. Who is responsible
The site is operated by Sergei Yagudin, licensed private investigator (licence no. 100209001), Netanya, Israel. Sergei Yagudin is the controller of personal data collected through the site.
For any privacy matter: privacy@israelbackground.com | phone 050-9721597.
2. What data is collected
Browsing
The site has no forms for collecting details, no registration and no file uploads. The site does not use cookies and shows no advertising. The site has no traffic analytics or tracking scripts.
Server logs
The hosting provider automatically records technical data about each request: IP address, time of the request, page requested, browser and operating system. These logs are used for security, troubleshooting and abuse prevention, not to identify visitors or for advertising.
Third-party components
Pages load fonts or code libraries from: Google Fonts (Google), cdnjs (Cloudflare). When loading them, your browser contacts their servers and, as with any website, discloses your IP address and browser details. Their use of that data is governed by their own privacy policies.
When you contact us
When you contact us by email or phone, we receive what you provide: name, contact details and the content of your message.
3. Purposes
- Answering your enquiry and providing the service you requested.
- Securing and operating the site.
- Complying with legal obligations.
- Protecting legal rights.
The data is not used for direct marketing or advertising and is never sold.
4. Is providing data mandatory?
There is no legal obligation to give us any data. Browsing requires no details, and providing details in an enquiry depends on your free will and consent. If you do not give contact details, we cannot reply.
5. Who receives the data and why
- Service providers acting for us, for operation only: Hostinger (website hosting and email server).
- A competent authority or court, where the law requires it or under a court order.
- Our legal advisers, to protect legal rights, under a duty of confidentiality.
We will not pass personal data to any other third party without your consent. Service providers' servers may be located outside Israel; transfers to them are made only for the purposes above and subject to the Privacy Protection (Transfer of Data to Databases Abroad) Regulations, 5761-2001.
6. Sensitive information
Please do not send medical information, ID numbers, bank details or unnecessary documents of other people in a first message. If such information is needed, we will agree a suitable way to send it.
7. Retention
Enquiries are kept only as long as needed to handle them, to meet a legal obligation or to protect rights, and are then deleted. Data relating to an investigation engagement is kept confidentially under the law governing private investigators and the engagement agreement. Server logs are kept by the hosting provider under its own policy.
8. Security
The site is served over an encrypted connection (HTTPS). Access to the mailbox and hosting systems is limited to the controller. We take reasonable measures in line with the Privacy Protection (Data Security) Regulations, 5777-2017. No security method is completely infallible.
9. Your rights
- Right of access (section 13): to review data about you that we hold. Access is given in Hebrew, Arabic or English.
- Right to request correction or deletion (section 14): where the data is incorrect, incomplete, unclear or out of date.
- Send requests to privacy@israelbackground.com. We will reply within the time limits set by law and may ask you to verify your identity first.
- If you receive no answer, you may apply to the Privacy Protection Authority or to the courts, as the law provides.
10. Content published on the site
The site publishes articles and information based on public documents, decisions and judgments, including documents from proceedings to which the site operator is a party. Anyone who believes that information about them on the site is inaccurate, or that its publication unlawfully infringes their privacy, may write to privacy@israelbackground.com with the page address and the request. Every request is examined on its merits.
