1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how MELEK GUR LLC-FZ (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on melekgur.com.

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Notice, which provides further information about how we process personal data and how you can exercise your rights.

2. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website. Cookies allow the website to recognise your device and store certain information about your preferences or past actions.

Cookies may be:

• Session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser; or
• Persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period or until deleted.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the operation of the website and cannot be switched off. They enable core functionality such as:

• Page navigation
• Secure form submission
• Basic website functionality

Legal basis: Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interests), and, where applicable, the corresponding legitimate-interest ground under UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data. Because these cookies are strictly necessary, consent is not required.

3.2 Analytics, Performance, and Marketing Cookies (Where Enabled)

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website and may support performance measurement, security, and marketing activities. For example, they may relate to:

• Pages visited
• Time spent on pages
• Error messages or performance issues
• Traffic analysis and campaign measurement
• Third-party platforms we work with (such as Google or Meta), where enabled

The information collected is used to improve website performance and user experience, and — where you have accepted cookies — to support analytics and marketing collaborations with selected partners.

Legal basis: Article 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent), and the equivalent consent requirement under applicable UAE data protection law, where required. These cookies are set only after you have provided your consent via the cookie banner on our website.

We do not use cookies for automated profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects about you.

4. Cookies We Do Not Use

We do not use cookies for:

• Automated profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects
• Selling personal data to data brokers

Where marketing or measurement cookies are used with partners such as Google or Meta, they are only set after you select Accept, and are described in Section 3.2.

5. Cookie Consent Mechanism

When you first visit our website, you are presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to:

• Read more in this Cookie Policy (More info)
• Accept cookies (Accept)

Non-essential cookies (including analytics, performance, and marketing cookies) are not set unless and until consent is given by selecting Accept. The banner remains until Accept is chosen.

After you accept, your choice is stored so that we do not show the banner again on subsequent visits from the same browser.

6. Managing Cookies Through Your Browser

You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

• View stored cookies
• Delete cookies
• Block cookies from specific websites
• Block all cookies

Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect the proper functioning of the website.

7. Third-Party Cookies

Where third-party service providers are used (for example, analytics or hosting services), they may set cookies in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies.

Further information about third-party processing can be found in our Privacy Notice.

8. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in law, technology, or our practices.
