Who We Are

Welcome to AB Capital! You can find us online at abcapital.ae.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data displayed in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent. This information helps us detect and prevent spam.

If you use Gravatar, an anonymized string created from your email address (known as a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check for your profile. You can find Gravatar’s privacy policy here: Gravatar Privacy Policy. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be publicly visible alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our site, please avoid including images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract location information from images.

Cookies

When you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience. This means you won’t need to fill in your details again for future comments. These cookies will remain for one year.

If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will be set to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and will be discarded when you close your browser.

Upon logging in, we’ll set several cookies to save your login details and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen option cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out will remove the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved, containing no personal data, and indicating the post ID of the article you just edited. This cookie expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Our articles may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). This content behaves as if you visited the other site directly. These external sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, particularly if you have an account and are logged in.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

Data Retention

Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely to automatically recognize and approve any follow-up comments.

For registered users, we store the personal information provided in their profiles. Users can view, edit, or delete their information at any time (excluding username changes). Administrators can also access and edit this information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data that we hold, including any data you have provided. You can also request the deletion of your personal data, although we must retain certain information for administrative, legal, or security reasons.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
