This Cookie Policy explains how Whats Hot in UAE (“we”, “our”, or “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognise you when you visit our website at https://whatshotinuae.com (“Website”). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to “remember” you and your preferences, either for a single visit (via a “session cookie”) or for multiple repeat visits (using a “persistent cookie”).
Cookies ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors, and perform essential functions such as allowing users to log in or track items in their shopping basket. They can also be used for analytics and advertising purposes.
Why do we use cookies?
We use cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons — these are known as “essential” cookies. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website. Third parties serve cookies through our Website for analytics and advertising purposes.
The specific types of cookies we use include:
1. Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our Website. They help with navigation, language preferences, and security features.
2. Performance and Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors use our Website — for instance, which pages they visit most often. We use this information to improve how our Website works. These cookies do not collect information that identifies you directly.
3. Functionality Cookies
These cookies allow the Website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personalised features. For example, remembering your location or preferred layout.
4. Advertising and Targeting Cookies
We may partner with third-party ad networks (such as Google Ads or Meta) that use cookies to display personalised advertising on our Website or to manage our advertising on other websites.
Third-Party Cookies
In some cases, we use third-party cookies (e.g. Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Hotjar, etc.) to collect anonymous statistics and track user behaviour. These third parties may also use cookies to build a profile of your interests to show you relevant content on other platforms.
We do not control these third-party cookies. To learn more, we encourage you to visit their respective cookie or privacy policies.
How can I control cookies?
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can set or amend your cookie preferences at any time by adjusting your browser settings. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies but offer settings to decline them if you prefer.
You can also:
- Disable cookies by adjusting your browser settings (note: some parts of the Website may not function properly).
