Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how UAEThrive collects, uses and protects information submitted through the platform. UAEThrive.com is a digital property wholly owned and operated by Alan Clark, trading as Abneos Dynamic Marketing in the United Kingdom.

Information We Collect

We may collect business information submitted for listings, contact details provided through forms, listing content and supporting information, enquiry and communication records, and website usage and analytics data. We do not directly collect or store payment card information. Payments, where available, may be processed by third-party payment providers.

How We Use Information

We use submitted information to review and manage listings, publish approved business profiles, process listing claims, respond to enquiries, provide support and operational communications, improve the platform and user experience, and send service-related updates where appropriate.

Listing Information

Information submitted for publication may become publicly visible as part of a business listing. Business owners are responsible for ensuring submitted information is accurate and up to date.

Data Retention

We retain submitted information for as long as necessary to operate the platform, maintain listings, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce our policies. You may request the removal of your information where applicable.

Third-Party Services

UAEThrive may use trusted third-party providers to support platform operations, communications, analytics, hosting, automation, customer relationship management, and business management functions. Information may be processed by these providers in accordance with their own privacy policies and applicable laws.

Cookies and Analytics

Optional analytics runs after you allow analytics in our cookie choices. You can change that choice through Cookie settings. With that permission, promotional measurement records impressions, clicks, attributable listing visits, contact actions and submitted enquiries, with business, campaign, placement, category and location context. A saved enquiry may be linked to a recorded promotional click within 30 minutes in the same tab. Event records use a daily hash of a random tab-session token and contain no contact details or raw IP address; enquiry details are stored separately to handle your request. Promotion events are scheduled for removal after 90 days. This observed sequence does not prove causation, a booking or a sale. You can submit an enquiry without allowing optional analytics.

Data Security

Reasonable technical and organisational measures are used to protect information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no online platform can guarantee absolute security.

Your Rights

You may request access to information we hold about you, correction of inaccurate information, removal of information where applicable, and information about how your data is being used. Where applicable, requests are handled in accordance with relevant UAE data protection requirements and other applicable privacy laws. Requests will be reviewed in accordance with applicable laws and operational requirements.

Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. The latest version will always be published on this page.
