Privacy Policy

01Scope and Data Controller

This policy applies to the website at petrometztrading.com and to any personal data we receive through it or as a result of you contacting us using the details published on it.

The data controller is:

This policy does not govern any separate commercial relationship you may enter into with us; that is covered by the terms of the relevant supply contract. It also does not cover websites operated by third parties that we may link to.

02Summary

In plain terms:

• This website has no contact form, no login and no ordering system.
• It sets no cookies and runs no analytics or tracking.
• It loads nothing from third parties — no CDN, no web fonts service, no map embed, no video, no social widget.
• The only personal data we ever hold is what you deliberately send us by email, phone or post.

03No Personal Data Collection

We do not collect any personally identifiable information through this website. Specifically, the site never asks for or records:

• your name, job title or employer;
• your email address or telephone number;
• your postal, billing or delivery address;
• any payment, banking or financial details;
• any identity, trade licence or shipping documentation;
• any account credentials, because there are no accounts.

You can browse every page of this website freely, without providing any personal data and without being identified.

04No Cookies, Analytics or Tracking

This website sets no cookies of any category — not strictly necessary, preference, statistical or marketing. It uses no analytics platform, no advertising or remarketing pixel, no social media widget, no session recording and no device or browser fingerprinting.

Nothing is written to your browser’s local storage, session storage, IndexedDB or cache storage. Because we set no cookies and use no tracking, no consent banner is required and none is shown. Full detail is in our Cookie Policy.

05No Third-Party Content

All fonts, scripts, stylesheets and 3D assets on this website are served from our own domain. The site makes no request to any external host.

This matters for your privacy: an embedded map, a hosted font or a CDN-loaded script would disclose your IP address and browser details to that provider on every page view, whether or not you interacted with it. We have deliberately removed all such components so that no third party learns anything about your visit.

06Technical Server Logs

Like effectively every website, the server that delivers these pages may automatically record standard technical connection data: the requesting IP address, date and time, the file requested, the HTTP status returned and the browser user-agent string.

Purpose and legal basis. This is processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in delivering the website reliably, diagnosing faults and protecting the site against abuse and attack. It is not used to identify individual visitors, is not combined with any other dataset, is not used for marketing or profiling, and is never sold, rented or shared.

Retention. Log data is held by our hosting provider under its own security controls and is retained only as long as needed for security and operational purposes — ordinarily no more than 30 days — after which it is deleted or overwritten in the normal course.

07If You Contact Us Directly

If you choose to contact us by email, telephone or post using the details published on this website, we receive whatever information you choose to send: typically your name, contact details, company and the content of your enquiry.

Purpose and legal basis. We use it solely to respond to your enquiry and to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract, and thereafter to perform that contract. Where we rely instead on legitimate interests (for example, ordinary business correspondence), we have assessed that this does not override your rights.

Sharing. We do not sell, rent or trade your details. We share them only where strictly necessary to fulfil your request — for example, passing a technical specification to a manufacturer or a freight forwarder in order to quote or deliver — or where we are required to do so by law or by a competent authority.

Retention. Enquiry correspondence is kept only as long as needed for the enquiry and any resulting business relationship, plus any period required by applicable UAE commercial, tax and record-keeping law. We do not add you to a marketing list without your consent.

08International Transfers

We are based in the United Arab Emirates and our hosting and email infrastructure may process data on servers located outside the UAE. Where personal data is transferred across borders, we take reasonable steps to ensure it remains subject to appropriate safeguards and to a level of protection consistent with applicable law.

09Your Rights

Because this website collects no personal data, there is normally nothing arising from your visit for us to access, correct or erase.

Where we do hold personal data because you contacted us, you may ask us to:

• confirm what we hold and provide a copy;
• correct anything inaccurate or incomplete;
• delete it, where we have no continuing legal or contractual reason to keep it;
• restrict or object to our processing of it;
• provide it in a portable format, where applicable;
• withdraw any consent you previously gave, without affecting processing already carried out.

Write to us using the details in section 12. We will respond within 30 days. There is no charge unless a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive. We may need to verify your identity before acting.

These rights reflect UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data and, where it applies to you, the EU/UK General Data Protection Regulation.

10Complaints

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your personal data, please contact us first so we can try to resolve it. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UAE Data Office, or with the supervisory authority in your country of residence if you are outside the UAE.

11Security and Children

This website is served exclusively over an encrypted HTTPS connection and is configured with a strict Content Security Policy, HTTP Strict Transport Security, clickjacking protection and a restrictive permissions policy. It contains no login, no database and no user input, which removes the most common avenues of attack against visitor data.

No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure. Please do not send confidential commercial or financial information by unencrypted email.

This website is intended for business and professional use. It is not directed at children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect any information relating to children.

12Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes to the website, our practices, or legal requirements. The current version is always published on this page with its version number and effective date shown at the top. Material changes will be reflected in an increased version number. Please review this page periodically.
