Privacy Policy

How Russians in UAE handles personal data, cookies and advertising technologies.

Last updated: 13 September 2026

Who controls the data

Russians in UAE is an independent online community publication for Russian-speaking audiences in the UAE. For personal-data enquiries, email advertise@russiansinuae.com.

Data that may be collected

The site may receive information a visitor voluntarily submits by email or through future forms, including a name, contact details, business information and message content. Hosting and security services may process an IP address, browser and device information, requested URLs, timestamps, referral information and technical logs.

Business-directory submissions

When a business is submitted, the site receives the submitter’s name and email for review, plus information intended for publication: business name, description, category, service area, service languages and selected public contact details. The submitter name and verification email are not published. A submission is retained with its review status and may be rejected, corrected or removed to prevent fraud and abuse.

Cookies, analytics and Google

Cookies or local storage may support security, language preferences, audience measurement and, after approval, advertising. Third-party advertising vendors, including Google, may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses or other identifiers to serve and measure advertising. Read how Google uses information from partner sites. Visitors can manage Google personalized advertising in Google Ads Settings.

EEA and UK consent and withdrawal

Before advertising technologies are enabled for visitors in the EEA and United Kingdom, the site must use a Google-certified consent management platform. Where consent is required, it will be requested before non-essential cookies are stored or personal data is used for personalized advertising. Visitors must be able to reject consent or withdraw it through a permanently accessible privacy-settings link. Withdrawal does not affect processing that was lawful before withdrawal.

Purposes, legal bases, sharing and retention

Data may be used to answer enquiries, secure the service, prevent abuse, measure performance and meet legal obligations. The legal basis may be consent, steps requested by the visitor, legitimate interests in operating and securing the publication, or a legal obligation. Directory submissions are retained while a listing is reviewed or published; correspondence is retained only as long as needed to respond, make a correction, protect the service or comply with law. Technical logs follow the infrastructure providers’ retention terms.

Rights and requests

Depending on applicable law, a visitor may request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability, or object to processing. Email advertise@russiansinuae.com. Reasonable identity verification may be required to protect personal data.
