Privacy Policy
Welcome to our site (“Site”). Emiraat (“Emiraat”) knows how our clients and visitors like you value your privacy, and we have created this privacy policy to ensure that you understand our policies and procedures, what personally identifiable information you must provide if you wish to use the Site and, ultimately, just how we use such personally identifiable information.
This policy applies only to the website located at www.emiraat.com, and not to any other website or service. If you do not agree with this policy, then you should not use the Site.
Personally Identifiable Information Collected by Emiraat
Emiraat may collect and store personally identifiable information (Personal Data) about you if you voluntarily submit such information to Emiraat. Personal Data may include your name, email address, physical address, financial details related to transactions, and other information that specifically identifies you.
Non-Personally Identifiable Information Collected by Emiraat
Emiraat may also automatically collect (through cookies, described below, and other methods) and store aggregate or anonymous information about user contact with and use of the Site. Examples of this type of information include demographic information, the type of internet browser you are using, the type of computer operating system application software and peripherals you are using, the domain name of the web site from which you linked to our Site and your browsing habits on and usage of the Site. Non-Personally identifiable information may also include Personal Data that has been aggregated so that no one individual is specifically identifiable (such as, how many users in a particular city access the Site).
How We Use Your Personally Identifiable Information
Emiraat will only use your Personal Data as described in this policy.
We process your Personal Data based on your explicit consent, which you provide by using the Site and accepting this policy, where necessary for the performance of a contract with you, or based on our legitimate interests (such as marketing, security, and service improvement), provided your fundamental rights and freedoms do not override these interests.
Emiraat may use the Personal Data we collect to contact you about our products and services or those of our clients or other third parties from time to time. Except for the parties described below, we do not sell or share your Personal Data with third parties without your consent. We may share your Personal Data with our clients (if they have agreed to comply with privacy protections similar to those set forth in this policy), companies that are affiliates of Emiraat, technical consultants and other third parties who make our Site available, enhance its functionality, or provide associated services (but only for the purpose of providing such services to Emiraat).
Information obtained in connection with the Site may be intermingled with and used by us in conjunction with information obtained through sources other than the Site, including both offline and online sources.
We reserve the right to transfer any information to our successors in business and purchasers of Site assets or a particular division or line of business.
We also reserve the right to access and/or disclose any information as required by courts or administrative agencies and to the extent necessary to permit us to investigate suspected fraud, harassment or other violations of any law, rule or regulation, the Site rules or policies, or the rights of third parties or to investigate any suspected conduct which Emiraat deems improper.
How We Use Your Non-Personally Identifiable Information
We may share non-personally identifiable information with third parties for any number of reasons, including advertising, promotional and/or other purposes.
Cookies
We may use cookies and similar technologies to collect non-personally identifiable information from you and to customize your use of the Site. A cookie is a small data file that certain websites write to your hard drive when you visit them. We may also use web bugs, clear gifs and similar technologies that collect data similar to that collected by a cookie. A cookie file can contain various types of information, including a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you have visited.
Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies; however, you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or indicate when a cookie is being sent or you can flush your browser of cookies from time to time. (Note: you may need to consult the help area of your browser application for instructions.) If you choose to disable cookies or refuse to accept a cookie, you may not be able to utilize all features of the Site.
At times, some of our advertisers and their ad service providers set cookies when you click their advertising banners. While we use cookies in other parts of the Site (as discussed above), cookies received with banner ads are collected by those advertisers and their ad service providers. The advertiser’s privacy policy and/or that of its service provider will govern the use of this information and Emiraat is not responsible for the privacy practices of such advertiser or ad service provider.
Links
The Site may contain links to websites maintained by third parties. Emiraat is not responsible for the privacy practices of such third party sites. You should carefully read their own privacy policies before providing any information to such third parties.

Please note that Emiraat is not responsible for removing information from third party lists or databases if we have shared your information with such third parties as permitted by this policy.
Data Retention
We will retain your Personal Data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements under UAE law. We reserve the right to keep any information submitted or collected for legitimate business reasons, such as archiving data, unless you successfully exercise your right to erasure.
Security
We are committed to taking reasonable steps to ensure the security of your information. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure the appropriate use of information, we have put into place physical, electronic and managerial procedures to help safeguard and secure the information we collect online. However, due to the inherent open nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that communications between you and us or information stored on the Site or our servers will be completely free from unauthorized access by third parties such as hackers and your use of the Site demonstrates your assumption of this risk.
Protection for Children
This Site is not intended for users under the age of 18 in line with UAE law, and we have no intention of collecting Personal Data from children (i.e., individuals under the age of 18). If a parent or guardian learns that a child has provided us with Personal Data, that child’s parent or guardian should contact us and send a request marked “Privacy – Urgent” if they would like the information submitted by the child deleted from our database. We will use all reasonable efforts to delete such information from our database.
Governing Law and International Data Transfer
The Site is maintained in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). By using the Site, you freely and specifically give us your consent to process and store your Personal Data in the UAE as specified in this policy. Where we transfer your Personal Data outside the UAE, we will ensure that the transfer complies with the conditions set out in the UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 (PDPL), ensuring that the destination jurisdiction offers an adequate level of protection or that appropriate safeguards are in place. These Terms and any dispute arising from them will be governed by the laws of the UAE.
Your Consent
We may amend our privacy policy at any time and will post those changes on this page, so you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances we may disclose it. However, if we plan to materially change the way in which we use or disclose your Personal Data, we will provide you with prior notice and a chance to opt-out of such differing uses.
