Information we collect

We collect only what you choose to give us and the technical minimum needed to run the site:

• Enquiry details. When you use the contact form, call, or email us: your name, company, email address, phone number and the content of your message. We use these solely to respond to your enquiry and manage our business relationship with you.
• Technical data. Like most websites, our hosting infrastructure records standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages visited, timestamps) for security, debugging and aggregate statistics.
• Analytics. We use, or may in future use, privacy-respecting analytics services such as Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site. These services set cookies and collect usage data under their own privacy policies.

We do not sell personal information, and we do not collect special-category data on this website.

Cookies and third-party advertising

This site uses, or may in future use, cookies and similar technologies. Some are strictly necessary for the site to work; others support analytics and advertising.

We may display advertising served by Google and other third-party vendors. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or www.aboutads.info.

You can also refuse or delete cookies through your browser settings; the site remains usable without non-essential cookies.

Legal basis and retention

We process enquiry data on the basis of your consent and our legitimate interest in responding to business enquiries, and retain it only as long as needed for that purpose or as UAE law requires. Server logs are retained for a limited period for security purposes.

Sharing

We share personal information only with service providers who help us operate this website (hosting, email delivery, analytics and advertising partners as described above), each bound by their own privacy obligations, or where the law requires disclosure. We do not sell it.

Your rights

Subject to applicable law (including UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data), you may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, and object to or restrict certain processing. Write to info@gcbuae.com and we will respond within a reasonable period.
