Cookies Policy

Last Updated: December 1, 2025

What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information to the website owner.

Cookies collect information about your browsing behavior (such as your language preference, your login details, and the items you view on our classifieds platform). This information is considered Personal Data under the UAE Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL).

How My Geenio Uses Cookies

We use cookies for the following purposes:

Types of Cookies Used

We use both First-Party (set by My Geenio) and Third-Party (set by partners, advertisers, or analytics providers like Google) cookies.

Third-Party Cookies and Tracking

As a classifieds platform that hosts third-party advertisers, your browser may also receive cookies from external providers. These are used by third parties to:

• Measure the effectiveness of their advertising campaigns.
• Present content and ads relevant to you on other websites after you leave My Geenio (Retargeting).
• Provide us with analytics services (e.g., Google Analytics).

We do not have direct control over the cookies and tracking technology used by these third parties. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of our advertisers and partners for details on their data practices.

Your Consent and How to Control Cookies (PDPL Requirement)

Under the UAE PDPL, we must obtain your explicit consent for the placement of non-essential cookies (Analytics, Functionality, Advertising).

When you first visit My Geenio, a Cookie Consent Banner will appear, allowing you to:

1. Accept All: Consent to all types of cookies.
2. Reject All: Reject all non-essential cookies.
3. Customize Settings: Choose which categories (e.g., only Analytics, no Advertising) you consent to.

Withdrawing Consent

You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can manage your preferences through the following channels:

• Cookie Preference Center: A dedicated link, usually in the footer of the website (e.g., “Cookie Settings”), will allow you to change your consent choices.
• Browser Settings: Most web browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) allow you to control cookie settings. You can typically block or delete cookies by accessing the “Settings,” “Tools,” or “Preferences” menu. Note: Blocking Strictly Necessary cookies may break core site features.
• Third-Party Opt-Outs: You can opt out of interest-based advertising from many major networks by visiting industry-specific opt-out pages (e.g., Network Advertising Initiative, European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance).

Updates to this Policy

We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated policy on our website and updating the “Last Updated” date at the top.
