Trust, confidentiality, and your documents

You Are Handing Over Title Deeds. You Should Know Exactly How We Hold Them.

Working with us means sharing title documents, identity papers, and family details with people you have not met, in a country you do not live in. This page sets out precisely how that information is handled, who sees it, and what we will never do with it.

Confidentiality protocol

Who Sees What, and When

Discretion is not a promise we make in a sentence. It is a set of rules we operate under.

Confidentiality Agreement First

We sign a confidentiality agreement before you share a single document. You do not have to ask for it, and you do not have to give us anything sensitive to get it.

Strict Need to Know

Your information reaches only the people whose work requires it. On a typical mandate that means:

  • Your named engagement lead at Anchor Realty NRI
  • The specific legal, valuation, or registration professional handling your step
  • Nobody else, inside or outside the firm

Family Members Are Not Automatically Included

Relatives, caretakers, and local contacts do not receive your information or instructions unless you tell us in writing to include them. In many of the matters we handle, the family member nearby is part of the problem.

Instructions Come From You

We act on your instruction only. If someone approaches us claiming authority over your property, we come back to you before we act, every time.

Referring Advisors Are Kept in the Loop, Not in the File

Where a CPA, lawyer, or wealth manager introduced you, we report back to them on the property matter and nothing beyond it, and only with your consent.

What We Never Do

We do not sell your information. We do not share your property details with buyers, brokers, or lead lists. We do not use your name or your matter as a reference or case study without your written permission.

Data and document handling

What Happens to Your Papers

Title deeds, mutation records, identity documents, and powers of attorney. Here is the handling policy for each stage.

01

How you send documents to us

Documents are shared through a secure channel we set up for your mandate, not over open email or a messaging app. Where an original must be physically inspected, we tell you in advance and never ask you to part with an original you cannot replace.

  • Scans and copies for verification wherever possible
  • Originals inspected in person, returned or retained only on your written instruction
  • We never ask for banking passwords or one-time passcodes, and we will never call to request them
02

How we store them

Your documents are held in access-controlled storage, available only to the people assigned to your mandate. Access is logged, and it is withdrawn when a person leaves your engagement.

  • Access restricted to your named engagement team
03

How long we keep them

We keep your documents only as long as the mandate and the law require. When the engagement ends, you tell us what to return, what to retain, and what to destroy.

  • You receive a complete copy of your own file at the end of any mandate
04

What you can ask for at any time

The file is yours. You can ask us at any point what we hold, who has seen it, and to correct anything that is wrong. If you want your information deleted, we do so, other than where a law or a live legal matter requires us to keep it, and we will tell you plainly when that is the case.

The full legal terms sit in our Privacy Policy and Terms and Disclaimer.

The NRI Property Control Checklist

Six questions and a few minutes. It maps your property against the Four Control Zones and shows you exactly where your grip is strong and where it has quietly slipped.

  • Whether you could actually act on your property tomorrow, from where you live
  • Whether the title and mutation records match what you believe you own
  • Whether the asset is earning what it should, and whether the money can leave India
  • Whether succession is settled, or sitting on a timer
