LoadingLoadingHow Octone LEGAL COUNSEL collects, uses, and protects your personal data in accordance with UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data (UAE PDPL).
Effective date: January 2026
Octone LEGAL COUNSEL (“we”, “the Firm”) is the data controller for personal data processed through this website. Our registered office is at Level 24, Iris Bay Tower, Business Bay, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. You can reach us at contact@octonelegal.ae or +971 4 429 8800.
When you submit our confidential inquiry form, we collect the information you provide: your name, email address, telephone number (optional), the service area relevant to your inquiry, and the contents of your message.
We do not use analytics, advertising trackers, or profiling tools on this website. We do not collect personal data automatically beyond the technical server logs required to operate the site securely.
We process inquiry data to respond to your request, conduct conflict-of-interest checks required under our professional obligations, and assess whether we can act for you. Under the UAE PDPL, we rely on your consent — given when you submit the form — and on the necessity of processing to take steps at your request prior to establishing a lawyer–client relationship.
Submission of an inquiry does not create a lawyer–client relationship, and no information should be considered privileged until the Firm confirms engagement in writing.
Your data is processed only by authorized personnel of the Firm. We use the following service providers strictly to operate this website:
We do not sell, rent, or disclose personal data to third parties for marketing purposes. Disclosure may occur only where required by UAE law, court order, or a competent regulatory authority such as the Dubai Legal Affairs Department.
Our hosting providers may store data on servers located outside the UAE. Where personal data is transferred internationally, it is protected by contractual and technical safeguards consistent with the transfer requirements of the UAE PDPL.
Inquiry records are retained for as long as needed to assess and respond to your request and to satisfy our conflict-checking and professional record obligations, after which they are securely deleted. You may request earlier deletion at any time (see Your Rights below).
