Privacy Policy

UAE.dentist respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the rights you have over it.

Personal data we collect

Your personal data (such as name, email address and phone number) is collected in strict compliance with the UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data (PDPL) and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

We collect data only when you voluntarily provide it — for example when submitting a contact form, requesting a booking, subscribing to our newsletter, or applying to a listing. Each form limits collection to the strict minimum (data minimization) and specifies the purpose of collection.

How we use your data

• To connect you with the clinic or dentist you have requested contact with.
• To respond to your inquiries, quotes and support requests.
• To send editorial newsletters when you have explicitly opted in.
• To improve the site through anonymous, aggregated analytics.

No personal information is collected without your knowledge, and we do not sell your personal data to third parties.

Your rights

You have the right of access, rectification, deletion, portability and objection regarding the personal data concerning you. To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@uae.dentist. We will respond within 30 days.

Data retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by law. Contact form submissions are typically retained for 24 months.

Security

The data collected is processed according to secure protocols (TLS in transit, encryption at rest, access controls, and regular security reviews). While we implement industry-standard measures, no transmission over the internet can be guaranteed 100% secure.

Third-party processors

We rely on a limited number of trusted processors (hosting, database, email delivery, analytics) that meet appropriate data-protection standards. Data is only shared with a partner clinic when you explicitly initiate contact with them.
