Cookies are small files a website stores on your device. This page lists what this website uses and how you stay in control. Analytics cookies are used only if you accept them.

2. Third parties
If you accept analytics, Google Analytics sets cookies and receives usage data about your visit, which can be processed outside the UAE. We do not use advertising cookies and we do not allow Google to use this data for advertising: ad storage and personalisation stay switched off.
3. Managing your choice
The first time you visit, a banner asks whether to allow analytics. Accept and Reject are equally easy. Nothing is measured until you accept.
You can change your mind at any time with Cookie preferences in the footer. Rejecting after having accepted stops measurement and removes the Google Analytics cookies.
4. Browser controls
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking the necessary ones can stop parts of the site from working, for example remembering your language.
5. Changes
We update this list when we add or remove a cookie. The date at the top shows the latest change.
