Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how The Moxie Edit collects, uses, and protects information about you when you visit this website or subscribe to our newsletter. We are committed to handling your personal information responsibly and in accordance with applicable privacy laws, including the UAE Personal Data Protection Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021).

What Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information:

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Send you our newsletter if you have subscribed (you may unsubscribe at any time)
• Understand how visitors use the platform so we can improve it
• Display community-submitted experiences on the platform (if submitted and approved)
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We do not share your email address with brands, advertisers, or partners.

Newsletter

If you subscribe to The Moxie Edit newsletter, your email address is stored with our email service provider. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of any newsletter email, or by contacting us directly. We will not use your email address for any purpose other than sending you the newsletter.

Sensitive Information in Submissions

If a future submission format on this platform ever asks for a photo or description of a skin condition, that counts as health-related data under the UAE Personal Data Protection Law and is treated with extra care: explicit, separate consent is captured at the point of submission (not bundled into a general checkbox), and you can request its removal at any time. As of this update, the live submission form on the Site collects only a star rating, a one-sentence written experience, and an email address for verification — no photos are collected.

International Data Transfers

The tools we use to run this platform (including our hosting, database and email providers) may store or process data outside the UAE. Where this happens, we use providers that maintain recognised data protection and security standards. You can ask us which providers process your data by contacting us at the address below.

Third-Party Services

The Moxie Edit uses third-party services to operate the platform, including analytics providers and email newsletter tools. These providers may process your data on our behalf under their own privacy policies. We only use providers that meet adequate data protection standards.

Some pages may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those websites and recommend reviewing their privacy policies directly.

Data Retention

We retain email addresses for as long as you remain subscribed to the newsletter. You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us. Anonymised analytics data may be retained for longer periods as it cannot be used to identify you.

Your Rights

Under the UAE Personal Data Protection Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021), you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your data
• Withdraw consent to processing at any time
• Object to how your data is being used

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at themoxieedit@gmail.com. We will respond within 30 days.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the date at the bottom of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
