This Privacy Policy pertains to Dubai Swim Week, referred to in this document as "this Site" or "DSW."
Your privacy is a top priority for DSW. To ensure transparency regarding the capture and use of information about users of this Site, it's essential to understand the Terms and Conditions outlined in this Privacy Policy. This policy discloses DSW's privacy practices, including the information collected, its use, and how users can correct or change captured information. It exclusively addresses the use of this Site, and third-party websites may have their own privacy policies and practices beyond DSW's control.
This Site contains links to partners, advertisers, and third-party internet sites and services, each with separate privacy practices. DSW is not responsible for these independent policies or actions and disclaims liability for them. Users are reminded that personal information disclosed on any online service or website, including this Site, may be collected and used by third parties. While DSW takes reasonable security measures, it cannot guarantee the security of user-provided information, and users do so at their own risk.
This Site collects information from users and uses cookies for data collection (see Cookies below). Information is used in two ways: (1) "Aggregated" information groups user data without disclosing personal details, aiding in traffic statistics, and content evaluation. (2) Some information may be shared with third parties assisting DSW in producing content or providing services. DSW may also use anonymous click stream data for better-targeted advertisements.
Disclosure of information may be necessary by law, legal process, litigation, or requests from public and governmental authorities. In cases of reorganization, merger, or asset sale, information may be transferred to the relevant third party.
This Site is a general audience website, and DSW does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years. If collected in the future, DSW will comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, obtaining necessary parental consent and taking steps to delete information collected from a child under 13.
Cookies are small data files written to a hard drive when visiting a website. They contain information such as a user ID used to track visited pages. Cookies assigned a unique number let DSW track user actions without revealing personal identities. Users can control cookie use through browser settings, but some features may require cookies for functionality.
This Site employs various security measures to safeguard user information, including firewalls and encryption technologies. Only a limited number of employees with special access rights can access users' contact information. Passwords and credit card numbers are encrypted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. DSW's security policies are periodically reviewed and revised as needed.
