Privacy notice

Last updated 7 November 2026.

Who we are

Equinox Consulting FZCO is licensed by the International Free Zone Authority (IFZA), Dubai, United Arab Emirates, under licence number 38008. We decide how and why your personal data is used, which makes us the controller of that data. Contact us about anything in this notice at partners@equinoxconsulting.io.

This notice explains what we collect through this website and our work, why, and the choices you have. It is written to meet the UAE Personal Data Protection Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021), UK data protection law (the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018) and the US state laws that apply to us, including California’s privacy policy requirements.

What we collect

  • Details you give us: your name, work email, company, role and anything you write to us, when you request the checklist, book a call, email us or connect on LinkedIn.
  • Booking details: when you book a call, Cal.com collects your name, email, chosen time and any notes, and passes them to us.
  • Engagement records: contact details and correspondence for the people we work with on client engagements.
  • Website usage: Cloudflare Web Analytics counts visits, pages viewed, referring sites and device type. It does not use cookies and does not build a profile of you. Our hosting provider briefly processes IP addresses to deliver the site and protect it from attacks.

We do not knowingly collect special category or sensitive personal data through this website. Please do not send it to us unless we have agreed a secure route for it as part of an engagement.

Who we share it with

We share personal data only with providers that help us run the business, under contracts that require them to protect it:

  • Cal.com, for call scheduling
  • Kit, for email sign-ups and mailing
  • Cloudflare, for website hosting, security and analytics
  • Our email and file storage provider, Google Workspace
  • Professional advisers such as lawyers and accountants, where needed
  • Authorities, where the law requires it

We do not sell personal data, and we do not share it for targeted advertising.

International transfers

We are based in the UAE, and some of our providers store data in the United States, the European Union or the United Kingdom. Where UK or UAE law requires it, we rely on recognised safeguards for these transfers, such as the UK International Data Transfer Addendum or standard contractual clauses.

How long we keep it

  • Enquiries and booking details: up to two years after our last contact
  • Mailing list: until you unsubscribe
  • Client engagement records: six years after the engagement ends, unless a contract or law requires a different period
  • Security logs: a short period set by our hosting provider

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you can ask us to give you a copy of your data, correct it, delete it, restrict or object to how we use it, or move it to another provider. Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time. Email partners@equinoxconsulting.io and we will reply within one month.

  • UK: you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk. We would appreciate the chance to resolve your concern first.
  • UAE: you can complain to the federal authority responsible for data protection.
  • California and other US states: you can ask what personal information we hold, and ask us to correct or delete it. We will not treat you differently for using these rights. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined in California law.

UK representative

Because we are based outside the UK, we have appointed a representative for UK data protection matters: Hasan Veletanlic, Flat 14, W13 0HG, United Kingdom.

Security

We use access controls, encryption provided by our service providers and reputable hosting to protect personal data. No online service is completely secure, so please contact us straight away if you think your data has been put at risk.

Children

This website is meant for business users. It is not directed at anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect their data.

Changes to this notice

We will update this notice when our practices change and show the date of the latest version at the top.
