This Privacy Policy explains how dubaistory.ae (“Dubai Story”, “we”, “us”) handles information when you use our website.
Information we collect
Automatically
When you visit the site, our hosting and analytics providers may log:
- IP address (often truncated or anonymised)
- Browser type, device, and operating system
- Pages visited, referrers, and approximate location (country/region)
- Date and time of access
This is standard for most websites and helps us keep the service secure and understand traffic.
You provide
If you email us, we receive whatever you send (name, email address, message content). We use it only to respond to your request.
We do not operate a public comment system or user accounts on the main site at this time.
How we use information
We use collected information to:
- Operate and improve the website
- Respond to enquiries and correction requests
- Monitor security and abuse
- Comply with legal obligations where applicable
We do not sell your personal information.
Cookies and similar technologies
See our Cookie Policy for details on cookies and how to control them.
Third-party services
The site may load content or scripts from third parties (e.g. fonts, embedded media, analytics). Those providers have their own privacy policies. Linked articles often leave our site — review the destination publisher’s policy before submitting personal data there.
Data retention
Server logs and correspondence are kept only as long as needed for operations, security, and legal compliance, then deleted or anonymised where practical.
Your rights
Depending on where you live (including the UAE and, where applicable, GDPR jurisdictions), you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you. Contact privacy@dubaistory.ae with your request. We may need to verify your identity.
Children
The site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. The “last updated” date below will change when we do. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
