Cookies Policy

(Last updated: 7 May 2026)  

This Cookie Policy describes how Trade & Market Service FZCO (“we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies to provide, customize, evaluate, improve, promote and protect our services. If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy, please contact us using the details provided in Section 5.  

1) What are Cookies?   Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit the site. They perform various functions, such as remembering information you provide while navigating between pages, supporting essential site features, and helping deliver a smoother, more efficient, and personalized browsing experience.   Cookies used on our website may be either first‑party cookies, which are set directly by us, or third‑party cookies, which are set by service providers acting on our behalf (such as Squarespace).
Essential security and functionality cookies are always present, while analytics cookies are used only with your consent.
Specifically, we use cookies to:  
·       Provide essential functionality and security;
·       Enable core site functions;
·       Understand your site usage (if you consent to analytics cookies); and
·       Support analytics and advertising activities (where applicable and consented).   

2) Types of Cookies We Use  We use the following categories of cookies on visitors’ browsers:   Essential / Functional Cookies: These cookies are necessary for the proper operation, security, and functionality of our website and cannot be turned off in our systems. They are typically set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services (such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms). They do not, on their own, identify you directly, and they are used only to support core site functionality and security.
We use one essential cookie, “Crumb”, which is necessary for the proper and secure operation of the website. It helps protect the website against Cross‑Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks by ensuring that form submissions come from the same browser session. This cookie is session-based and is deleted when you close your browser.
Non-essential (analytics and performance) cookies: These cookies help us understand how visitors use our website, such as which pages are visited and how users navigate the site. These cookies will only be used with your consent where required under UAE data protection law.
They may include:
·       ss_cvr -       Purpose: Conversion or visitor tracking -       Duration: 13 months 
·       ss_cvt -       Purpose: Stores visit timing or session-related data -       Duration: 30 minutes
Session cookies remain active only for the duration of your browsing session and are deleted once you close your browser.  
Persistent cookies stay stored on your device after your session ends and remain until they expire or you delete them manually.

3) How to Manage Cookies? You can set your browser to refuse cookies or remove cookies that have already been set. However, doing so may affect some website features or functionality.    We will only set non‑essential cookies (such as analytics cookies) after we obtain your explicit consent through our cookie banner. You may accept all cookies, reject all non‑essential cookies, or choose granular preferences. You may withdraw or change your consent at any time by adjusting your preferences in the cookie banner. If the banner is not visible, you can reset your preferences by clearing cookies in your browser, which will cause the banner to reappear.  

4) Third‑Party Cookies and International Transfers   Some cookies used on our website are placed by Squarespace, our website hosting provider, who processes data on our behalf as our service provider (processor) in accordance with our written instructions and applicable data protection laws. Where these third‑party cookies (for example, certain analytics or performance cookies) involve the collection of personal data and result in transfers of such data outside the UAE, we will ensure that any cross‑border transfers comply with the requirements of the UAE Federal Decree‑Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data (PDPL). This may include transferring personal data to countries that provide an adequate level of protection, entering into appropriate contractual safeguards (such as data protection or data transfer agreements), or relying on other legally permitted transfer mechanisms where applicable.   Where required, we will obtain your consent before deploying non‑essential third‑party cookies that involve international transfers of your personal data.   For more information about Squarespace’s use of cookies, please refer to their Cookie Policy: https://www.squarespace.com/cookie-policy.
