Your information
Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information may be collected through the Fancy Cut Gents Salon website and how it may be used, shared and protected.
Current website setup: The appointment form prepares a WhatsApp message in your browser. The website itself does not save the form submission to a database.
1. Scope of this policy
This Privacy Policy applies to personal information handled through the Fancy Cut Gents Salon website, direct appointment communications and related salon enquiries.
It does not control the independent data practices of third-party providers such as WhatsApp, Google Maps, your email provider, mobile network or browser.
2. Information we may collect
Information you provide
When you contact the salon or request an appointment, you may provide:
- your name;
- phone number and email address;
- requested service;
- preferred appointment date and time;
- messages, style preferences or other information you choose to share.
Technical information
The hosting provider or standard server logs may automatically record limited technical information such as IP address, browser type, device type, referral page, date/time and requested pages. This information is generally used for security, diagnostics and website operation.
Cookies and analytics
This version of the website does not intentionally use advertising cookies or third-party analytics. If analytics, advertising tools or additional cookies are introduced later, this policy and any required consent controls should be updated.
3. How information may be used
Personal information may be used to:
- respond to questions and appointment requests;
- confirm, change or cancel salon appointments;
- provide requested salon services;
- communicate service information, pricing or availability;
- maintain business and transaction records where required;
- protect the website, customers, staff and business from misuse, fraud or security threats;
- comply with applicable legal or regulatory obligations.
We do not sell personal information.
4. Basis for processing
Depending on the situation and applicable law, information may be processed because it is necessary to respond to your request, take steps toward providing a service, perform an agreed service, comply with legal obligations, protect legitimate business interests, or act with your consent.
6. Retention of information
Information is kept only for as long as reasonably needed for appointment management, customer service, legal compliance, dispute handling, security or legitimate business record-keeping.
Retention periods can vary based on the type of information and the purpose for which it was collected. Information that is no longer required should be deleted, anonymised or securely archived where appropriate.
7. Information security
Reasonable administrative and technical measures should be used to protect information from unauthorised access, loss, misuse or alteration. However, no internet, phone or messaging transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.
Please avoid sending unnecessary sensitive personal, financial or medical information through the website or WhatsApp.
8. Your choices and rights
Subject to applicable law and verification of your identity, you may ask to:
- access personal information held about you;
- correct inaccurate or incomplete information;
- delete information that is no longer required;
- object to or restrict certain processing;
- withdraw consent where processing depends on consent;
- receive information about how a request has been handled.
Some information may need to be retained where required by law or for legitimate business records.
9. Children's information
The website is intended for general audiences and is not designed to collect personal information directly from young children. A parent or guardian should arrange and supervise appointments for minors where appropriate.
10. Third-party services and international transfers
When you use links to WhatsApp, Google Maps, email or phone services, information may be processed by those providers, potentially in countries outside the UAE. Their privacy policies and security practices apply to their processing.
Please review the relevant provider's privacy information before sharing personal data through that service.
11. Updates to this policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated to reflect changes in the website, salon operations, service providers or legal requirements. The effective date at the top of this page identifies the latest published version.
