AJAC Privacy Policy

Here at Ajman Academy (‘ajmanacademy.com”, “we” or “us”), we take your privacy seriously. We have created this Privacy Policy so you know how we collect, use and store any personal information you give us.

We will comply with the privacy laws of the United Arab Emirates. But, regardless of

If at any time you don’t feel we’ve lived up to this, please let us know straight away by Contacting Us.

1. DATA PRIVACY

1.1 What information do we gather?

We may collect and process the following information in electronic and/or physical form (the
“Information”) from you:

  • Information that you provide by filling in forms on our Site, including information provided at the
    time of registering to use our site, subscribing to a service, posting material or requesting
    further information or services. We may also ask you for information if you report a problem
    with the Site.
  • If you contact us, we may keep a record of that correspondence.
  • We may also ask you to complete surveys that we use for research purposes, although you do
    not have to respond to them.
  • Details of any transactions you carry out through the Site or otherwise and of the fulfilment of
    your orders.
  • If you want to sign up to receive our newsletter we will collect the following personal
    information from you: your email address, name, date of birth and what you are interested in
    hearing more about.
  • We may collect information about your computer, including where available your IP address,
    operating system and browser type, for system administration purposes and to help us improve
    the Site. This is statistical data about our users’ browsing actions and patterns, and does not
    identify any individual.

This policy explains how we use personal information you provide to us. ‘Personal information’ is
information which identifies you or another person or is capable of doing so.

1.2 Password and Confidentiality

If you are provided with a user identification code, password or any other piece of information as part
of our security procedures for a registration-only section of the site, you are responsible for maintaining
the confidentiality of your password and user name for the Site and you are responsible for all activities
that are carried out under them. We do not have the means to check the identities of people using the
Site and we will not be liable where your password or user name is used by someone else. You agree
to Contact Us immediately if any unauthorised use of your password or user name of which you
become aware.

1.3 How we use the Information

We use the Information held about you in the following ways:

  • To register your application.
  • To ensure that the Site is presented in the most effective manner for you and for your
    computer.
  • To provide you with information, products or services that you request from us or which we
    feel may interest you, based on information we collect from cookies or where you have
    consented to be contacted for such purposes.
  • To send you relevant news if you have signed up to receive it.
  • To occasionally carry out surveys to ensure that we are providing you with what you are
    interested in.
  • To carry out our obligations arising from any contracts entered into between you and us.
  • To allow you to participate in any interactive features of the Site when you choose to do so.
  • To check whether you are eligible for a competition and to contact you if you win.
  • To notify you about changes to our service.
  • To comply with the law as we feel is necessary to prevent illegal activity or to protect our
    interest.

We won’t keep hold of your personal information for longer than is reasonably necessary or required
by law.

1.4 Will we share your information with anyone else?

Yes if…

  • You specifically request this, such as when you submit information to enquire about jobs or
    submit a job application through www.ajmanacademy.com/careers for current or future roles.
  • We are required to do so to comply with the law or with direction from the courts or other
    authorities.
  • We feel it is reasonably necessary to prevent illegal activity or to protect our interests. We will also
    share your information with Amazon, who securely host emails. We require all third-party service providers to keep your personal information safe and secure. These trusted third parties would only be permitted to use your
    personal information for the purposes we specify.

We won’t rent or sell your details to any other organisation or individual. We may share some broader
statistics and customer profiling information with third parties and other parts of Ajman Academy – but
we’ll keep it anonymous, so you won’t be identifiable from that data.

1.5 Where we store and process the Information

The Information we collect from you is partly stored on our servers in the US and UAE. Your data may
be transferred, stored outside the United Arab Emirates and countries which do not have data privacy
laws as strong as those in the European Union, and may also be processed by people operating outside
the European Union who work for us or one of our suppliers. By submitting the Information, you agree
to this transfer, storing or processing across national borders and entities as needed to provide you with
the service you have asked from us. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that the
Information is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.

1.6 Information Security

If you provide us with personal data over the Internet, you should be aware that data transmission via
this medium cannot be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While we will take all reasonable efforts to
protect such personal data, you acknowledge that we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any
personal data provided by these means and you provide it to us at your own risk. Once received, we
have appropriate technical and organisational security measures in place to protect the data that resides
on our servers. However, we do not warrant the security of our servers, nor do we warrant that the
Information will be completely secure or not be intercepted while being transmitted over the Internet.

1.7 How you can access your information

You are entitled to be told by us whether we or someone else on our behalf is processing your personal
information; what personal information we hold; details of the purposes for the processing of your
personal information; and details of any third party with whom your personal information has been
shared.

To do this we may charge a small admin fee for providing this information. And we may request proof of
your identity before we disclose such information to you. That’s so we can prevent unauthorised access.

1.8 Consent

By submitting the Information to us, you consent to our collection, storing and processing of this
information in accordance with this privacy policy. Any changes to our privacy policy will be posted on
the Site so that you are always aware of what information we collect and how we use it.

What about the personal information relating to minors? As a school, protecting the online privacy of
children is especially important to us. If you are under 18 years old, please do not provide us with your
name, contact details or any other information about yourself. To find out more, please read our Terms
and Conditions.

You also have the right to ask us not to process your personal data for marketing purposes. You can do
this by checking certain boxes on the forms we use to collect your data.

1.9 Are you protected by this policy on other websites, not ajmanacademy.com?

Our website contains links to other websites. We don’t have any control over them and take no
responsibility for any information you give them. Other sites have different privacy and security policies,
which we advise you to read.

2. COOKIES

What are cookies?

We use “cookies” to store and collect information regarding your use of our site. Cookies are small
pieces of information stored by the browser on your computer’s hard drive. They send the information
stored on them back to our web server when you access our site.

These cookies enable us to load the site in such a way as to reflect your personal preferences (based on
your previous browsing on ajmanacademy.com as well as keywords we may be able to gather from the
URLs of webpages from which you accessed our Site, your IP address and any search engine used to
reach us).

We use these cookies to improve your experience and recommend content that may be of interest to
you. You can find out more about cookies at www.allaboutcookies.org and more about the cookies we
use below.

What cookies do we use?

We only set a few cookies ourselves, but when we include content from other sites (like Facebook or
Twitter), they also get the opportunity to set cookies, to help them serve their content better. We can’t
guarantee that we’ll have listed every cookie you might get from a third party – they can change them at
any time as their needs change. Here are the main cookies used by ajmanacademy.com

Cookies for Measuring Web Traffic

The Site uses cookies of a kind commonly referred to as “analytics cookies”. We generally use the tool
from Google called Google analytics which helps us to understand how many people visit our Site, how
often people return to the site, how long they stay, and where on ajmanacademy.com they tend to go.
We use this to try to work out what kind of experience you’re having on the site, so we can make it
better. These cookies do not allow us to identify you personally. If you would like to read Google’s
privacy policy please click here

Cookies From Social Networks

Because Ajman Academy initiatives are active on various social media networks, we try and make it as
easy as possible to share content and to see what content is popular on those networks. For that reason,
we may include recommendations from Facebook, tweets from Twitter, content from Google+ and add
buttons to allow people to easily share to those networks.

When we include these social ‘plugins’, it gives those sites the flexibility to use cookies. If you haven’t
visited these sites, no cookies will be added.
