I aim to collect only information that is reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.

4. Legal grounds for using personal information
Depending on the circumstances and the data protection law that applies, personal information may be processed on one or more of the following grounds:
• Contract: to take steps at your request before entering into a contract, or to perform a contract with you
• Legitimate interests: where it is reasonably necessary to operate, manage, develop and protect my consultancy practice and professional relationships, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights
• Consent: where consent is appropriate or legally required
• Legal obligation: where information must be processed to comply with applicable law
• Legal claims: where processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims
Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time, subject to applicable law.
5. Sharing your information
I may share personal information where reasonably necessary with trusted third parties that support my business activities, such as:
• website hosting and technical service providers
• email and communications providers
• professional advisers, including accountants, lawyers or other consultants
• payment, banking or invoicing service providers
• technology, cloud storage or business administration providers

• government, regulatory, law-enforcement or judicial authorities where legally required
Where appropriate, I seek to work with reputable providers and limit access to information to what is reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.
I do not sell or rent personal information to third parties.
6. International data transfers
I am based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates and work internationally. Some service providers, clients, collaborators or technology systems may therefore process or store information in countries outside your own country.
Where personal information is transferred internationally, I will take reasonable steps to ensure that it is handled appropriately and, where required by applicable law, that suitable safeguards or lawful transfer mechanisms are used.
7. How long I keep your information
I retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including to:
• respond to enquiries
• manage professional and client relationships
• deliver consultancy services
• maintain appropriate business, contractual and financial records
• comply with legal, tax, accounting or regulatory obligations
• resolve disputes or protect legal rights
Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information, the relationship between us and applicable legal requirements.
When personal information is no longer reasonably required, I will take appropriate steps to delete, anonymise or securely dispose of it.
8. Data security
I take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, misuse, loss, alteration or disclosure.
However, no website, email service or method of electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You should therefore take appropriate care when sending sensitive or confidential information electronically.
9. Cookies and website technologies
This website may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for website functionality, security, performance or user experience.
Where analytics, advertising or other non-essential technologies are used and consent is required by applicable law, appropriate information and choices should be provided.
You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect how parts of the website function.
10. Links to other websites
This website may contain links to third-party websites or services, including professional networking or social media platforms.
I am not responsible for the privacy practices, security or content of third-party websites. You should review the privacy information provided by those third parties before submitting personal information to them.
