How This Site Uses Cookies
We owe you a clear account of the small files this site stores on your device and the choices you have over them.
Costs at our partnerWhy we take this obligation seriously
This website is an independent editorial resource that reviews a broker for readers in the United Arab Emirates. It is not the broker, it is not affiliated with the broker, and it does not provide financial services, accounts, deposits, or advice. Because we ask you to read our work and trust our judgment, we take on a corresponding duty to explain how the site behaves on your device. This policy is part of that duty. It describes the cookies we use, why we use them, how long they last, and what happens if you refuse them.
A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store. It is not a program, it cannot run code, and it cannot read other files on your device. When you return to the site, your browser sends the cookie back so the site can recognise the same browser. Cookies are used for many purposes, and not all of them serve you equally. We separate them into two kinds below and treat each kind differently.
We do not use cookies to sell you anything, and we do not use them to build profiles for advertising networks. Any change to that position will appear on this page before it takes effect.
Let strictly necessary cookies do their job
Strictly necessary cookies keep the site working. They remember your cookie choices, keep a page load consistent while you move between sections, and protect forms on this site against abuse. Without them, basic functions fail: your preference would reset on every page, and a form you submit might be rejected for no reason you could see.
These cookies do not track you across other websites, and we do not share what they hold with anyone for marketing purposes. They are set because the site cannot operate without them, not because we want information about you.
Strictly necessary cookies are short-lived. Session cookies of this kind disappear when you close your browser. Those that record your consent choice may remain for up to twelve months so that we do not ask you the same question on every visit. After that period they expire and are set again only when you return and make a choice.
Measure what readers actually use
Measurement and analytics cookies tell us which pages are read, how long readers stay, and where they leave. We use this only in aggregate, to decide what to improve and what to retire. These cookies are not essential to the site's operation, so they are set only after you agree.
They record a limited set of technical details, such as the pages viewed and the referring page. We do not use them to identify you personally, and we do not pass their data to advertising networks. If you decline, the site continues to work and we simply learn less about how it is used.
Analytics cookies live for up to thirteen months from the date they are set. Some are refreshed when you return and interact with the site, which restarts that period. You may withdraw your agreement at any time through the cookie settings on this site, and the cookies will stop being set on your next visit.
Know what refusing actually changes
Refusing analytics cookies does not block your access to any review, comparison, or page on this site. What changes is our visibility: we will not see which articles help readers and which confuse them, so improvements become slower and more guesswork. Nothing on the site will malfunction because of that refusal.
If you block strictly necessary cookies through your browser settings, expect real breakage. Your cookie choice will not be remembered, forms may fail, and pages may behave inconsistently between visits. Most browsers let you view, delete, and block cookies; the help pages of your browser explain where those controls sit.
Questions about this policy can be sent through the contact form on this site. We will answer them, and we will update this page whenever our use of cookies changes.
