Privacy Policy
What data we collect, why we collect it, and how we handle it, written in plain language, not legalese.
VisaDubai.ai (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website at visadubai.ai and the advisory tools on it. This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the site, including visitors, quiz participants, and report purchasers. By using this site, you agree to the practices described below.
We are committed to complying with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for users in the European Union and EEA, as well as applicable privacy laws in other jurisdictions.
1. What data we collect
Quiz responses. When you complete our free assessment, we collect your answers to questions about your nationality, business type, income level, and relocation goals. These are used to generate your personalised recommendations. Quiz responses are linked to a session identifier. We do not require you to create an account.
Email address. If you purchase a paid report, subscribe to updates, or voluntarily provide your email, we collect and store it. Your email is used to deliver your report, send relevant updates if you opt in, and respond to support enquiries. We do not add you to any mailing list without your explicit consent.
Payment data. Payments are processed by Stripe. We do not store your card details. Stripe handles all payment processing in accordance with PCI DSS standards. We retain a record of the transaction (amount, date, email) for accounting purposes.
Usage data. We collect standard web analytics data including pages visited, time on site, referral source, browser type, and approximate geographic location (country/city level) via Google Analytics 4.
2. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use our site. GA4 collects anonymised data including page views, session duration, and user flow. This data is processed by Google LLC and may be stored on servers outside the EU. We have enabled IP anonymisation in GA4.
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Our lawful basis for this processing is our legitimate interest in understanding site performance and improving the user experience.
3. Cookies
We use the following types of cookies:
- Session cookies: temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. Used to maintain your quiz session and preferences.
- Analytics cookies (Google Analytics): persistent cookies used to distinguish unique visitors and track usage over time. Expire after 2 years.
- Payment cookies (Stripe): set by Stripe during checkout for fraud prevention purposes.
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of the quiz and checkout process.

6. Data storage and security
Your data is stored securely on Supabase infrastructure. We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure, including encrypted connections (HTTPS) and access controls.
