Introduction
AMLZone (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is dedicated to protecting your privacy and safeguarding your personal data. This Privacy Policy details how we collect, use, store, and process personal information when you access or interact with our website (the “Website”).
This Policy is formulated in compliance with Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 regarding the Protection of Personal Data (PDPL) in the United Arab Emirates and incorporates international data protection best practices where applicable (including GDPR principles where applicable).
By accessing or using this Website, you accept the terms outlined in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue using the Website. This Policy applies to all users regardless of location. If you access the Website from outside the United Arab Emirates, you are responsible for maintaining compliance with your local data protection laws.
What Information We Collect
We collect personal information through two main channels: directly when you provide it to us, and automatically through technical usage data when you browse our Website.
You may choose to provide us with personal information when filling out a contact form, requesting a consultation, subscribing to updates, or corresponding with us. This information may include your name, email address, phone number (business or personal), company name, country or region of residence, and any additional details you choose to share in your message.
In addition, certain technical information may be automatically logged. This includes your IP address, browser type and version, device information, operating system, pages viewed, time spent on individual pages, and referring URL. This information is gathered using cookies and standard analytics tools to help us optimize Website performance and user experience.
We do not collect sensitive personal data (i.e. biometric identifiers, financial information, or government-issued IDs) through this Website unless you voluntarily provide it in the context of a professional engagement.
Our Website is intended for a professional audience and is not directed at minors under 18 years of age. We do not deliberately collect personal data from minors. If we identify that such data has been collected without verifiable consent, it will be promptly removed.
How We Use Your Information
We process your personal information strictly for legitimate operational, administrative, and service-oriented purposes, including:
Responding to your inquiries, delivering requested AML/compliance service proposals, and managing corporate communications.
Maintaining, optimizing, and securing the Website and generating internal analytics to better understand visitor engagement.
Fulfilling administrative requirements, managing backups, maintaining accurate business records, and complying with statutory obligations.
We do not sell your personal data or use it for unsolicited marketing communications unless you have explicitly opted in to receive compliance updates or newsletters.
Legal Basis for Processing
We process personal data in accordance with UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 (PDPL) and other applicable privacy regulations. Our processing activities rely on the following legal grounds:
Your Consent: Where you voluntarily submit your details through forms or opt into communications. You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us.
Legitimate Interests: To effectively run our platform, secure our infrastructure, respond to business inquiries, and manage corporate operations.

Cookies & Analytics
We use standard cookies and tracking technologies to enhance Website functionality and analyze user traffic. Cookies are small data files stored on your device that enable browser recognition and usage pattern analysis.
We use cookies to:
Operate and maintain the Website’s core infrastructure and essential user-facing features.
Compile anonymized usage metrics (such as traffic sources, page impressions, and interaction patterns) for performance evaluation and strategic improvements.
Safeguard the Website against unauthorized access, malware, or other cybersecurity threats, ensuring a stable user experience.
We do not deploy cookies for invasive behavioral ad-targeting or sell cookie data to third-party advertisers. You may adjust your browser settings to decline or clear cookies, though certain Website features may function with reduced efficiency.
Sharing of Your Information
We do not sell, trade, or lease personal information to third parties for commercial or marketing purposes.
We may disclose limited personal data only in the following circumstances:
With trusted technical partners and platform hosts who assist in operating the Website, managing communications, or analyzing system traffic. These providers are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and act only on our instructions.
Where disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable law, regulatory mandates, or court orders.
To safeguard the rights, property, or security of AMLZone, our clients, or the public, including in cases of fraud or security threats.
All third parties we work with are required to process your personal data in accordance with applicable data protection laws and exclusively for the purposes described above.
International Data Transfers
We are based in the United Arab Emirates, however, collected personal data may be stored or processed on servers hosted by international cloud service providers outside the UAE.
We take all reasonable steps to ensure that your information is handled securely during any international transfer, in compliance with this Privacy Policy and applicable data protection regulations. Safeguards may include contractual commitments with third parties, data processing agreements, or transfers to jurisdictions recognised as providing adequate data protection.
By submitting your personal information through the Website, you acknowledge that your data may be stored and processed in jurisdictions outside your country of residence, which may have different data protection standards.
Data Retention
We keep personal information only as long as necessary to achieve the purposes outlined in this Policy, including responding to enquiries, meeting legal obligations, maintaining accurate business records, and ensuring the continued functionality of the Website.
The duration of retention may differ based on the nature of the interaction. Inquiry data is typically kept for a limited time to allow follow-up, while technical analytics data may be stored for a shorter duration. For business relationships, we may retain data longer to meet AML/CFT compliance requirements.
Once personal data is no longer required, we take appropriate measures to securely delete or anonymise it, unless a legal obligation requires us to retain it for an extended period. You may request the deletion of your personal data at any time, subject to any legal or regulatory requirements that necessitate its retention.
Your Rights
Under applicable data protection laws, you have certain rights regarding the personal information we hold about you. These include the right to:
Access the personal data we hold about you
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information
Request deletion of your data where it is no longer needed or you withdraw your consent
Object to or restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances
Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent

All valid requests will be reviewed and answered within a reasonable period, in line with applicable legal requirements. Some rights may be limited or subject to exceptions under the law.
Data Security
The protection of your personal data is a priority for us. We apply appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to prevent unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or loss of the information we hold.
These safeguards include, but are not limited to, secure server configurations, strict access controls, encryption technologies, and routine data backup procedures. Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel and service providers who are bound by confidentiality obligations.
While these safeguards are in place, no online transmission or storage method is completely secure. Consequently, we cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for transmitting any information to us securely.
In the event of a data breach that may affect your rights or freedoms, we will take appropriate measures to notify you and any relevant supervisory authority, in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
