Unless you explicitly opt to store additional information, our cookies only contain one or more sequential
computer-generated identifiers. The cookies that this website requests your browser to store are suffixed with
"dwtc.com" and expire at the very latest after 365 days from the date on which they were last updated. Most

We will make every effort to provide a P3P compact policy file for each cookie that this website requests your browser to store.

11. Children
We are committed to protecting the privacy needs of children and we encourage
parents and guardians to take an active role in their children's online activities and interests. We do not

12. Security
We are committed to protecting the information you provide us. We have
implemented security policies, rules and technical measures to protect the personal data that we have under our
control, in accordance with applicable data protection laws. The security measures are designed to prevent
unauthorised access, improper use or disclosure, unauthorised modification and unlawful destruction or
accidental loss.
We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption when collecting or transferring sensitive data such as credit card information. SSL encryption is designed to make the information unreadable by anyone but us. This security measure is working when you see either the symbol of an unbroken key or closed lock (depending on your browser) on the bottom of your browser window. You should be aware that no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed as totally secure. Although we strive to protect such information, we do not guarantee the security of any information that you transmit to us over the Internet and you do so at your own risk. If you do not feel it is appropriate to send information electronically, please contact +971 (4) 3312000 for an alternative way of conducting business.

We are voluntarily committed to a Self-Assessment procedure. Data
privacy legislation is subject to revision and we recommend that you regularly check our Policies.

Our websites may provide links to third-party websites for your convenience.
If you access those links, you will leave our website. We do not control those websites or their privacy
practices, which may differ from ours. We do not endorse or make any representations about third-party websites.
This Privacy Notice does not cover the personal data you choose to give to unrelated third parties. We encourage
you to review the privacy notice of any company before submitting your personal information. Some third-party
companies may choose to share their personal data with us; that sharing is governed by that third-party
company's privacy notice.
