Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 6, 2025

Welcome to Precious Marine.
Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit or interact with our website https://preciousmarine.ae (the “Site”).

By using this Site, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

1. Who We Are

Our website address is https://preciousmarine.ae.
Precious Marine is engaged in providing marine-related services and solutions based in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

2. Information We Collect

a) Comments

When visitors leave comments on the Site, we collect the information shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/.
After your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public alongside your comment.

b) Media

If you upload images to the website, please avoid including images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website may download and extract location data from such images.

c) Cookies

We use cookies to improve your experience on our website. Cookies are small text files stored on your device.

If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience. These last for one year.
A temporary cookie is used on the login page to check if your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is removed when you close your browser.
When you log in, several cookies are set to save your login information and display preferences:
- Login cookies last for two days.
- Screen options cookies last for one year.
- If you select “Remember Me”, your login persists for two weeks.
When you log out, the login cookies are automatically removed.
When you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie indicating the post ID is saved and expires after one day.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time, though some parts of the website may not function properly.

d) Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this Site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you have visited the other website.

These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content—especially if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

3. Who We Share Your Data With

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

We do not sell, trade, or rent users’ personal information to others. Limited data may be shared with third-party service providers who assist in operating our website (for example, analytics or spam detection services), and only to the extent necessary for them to perform those services.

4. How Long We Retain Your Data

Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of holding them for moderation.
For registered users (if any), we store the personal information provided in their user profiles.
- All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information (except their username).
- Website administrators can also view and edit that information.

5. What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this Site or have left comments, you may request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any information you have provided to us.

You may also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you.
This does not include data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

To make such a request, please contact us at:
📧 operations@preciousmarine.ae

6. Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service and may pass through third-party security or analytics systems used to maintain website performance and safety.

7. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
However, please note that no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure.

8. Links to Other Websites

Our Site may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of such websites. We encourage users to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites they visit.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. All revisions will be posted on this page with the updated date. Continued use of the website after any changes constitutes acceptance of the new policy.
