1. What Are Cookies & Local Storage
Cookies are compact data files transmitted by a web server to your browser when navigating uaecompany.biz. The browser stores these small text packages locally on your device (desktop computer, laptop, mobile phone, tablet) and returns them during subsequent visits.
Alongside standard cookies, our platform may utilize modern browser storage technologies—specifically Local Storage and Session Storage—to securely maintain user-configured calculation inputs and interface preferences throughout the browsing session.
2. Categories of Cookies Deployed
To deliver an uninterrupted, secure experience, we categorize website cookies into three dedicated tiers:
1. Essential & Strictly Necessary Cookies
Fundamental to website operability. These cookies facilitate network routing, defend against automated bot exploitation, and sustain secure session integrity while users browse diverse free zone and mainland directories.
2. Functional & Preference Cookies
Empower the website to remember selected language preferences (English vs. Russian) and retain parameters configured within our interactive setup calculators (shareholder counts, visa numbers, facility choice).
3. Performance & Anonymous Analytics
Collect aggregate, strictly non-personally identifiable metrics regarding page load durations, edge CDN response speeds, and 404 navigation bottlenecks to optimize accessibility and user satisfaction.
3. Technical Cookie Matrix
The following matrix delineates standard cookies utilized across our web application:
| Identifier | Category | Duration | Operational Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| cf_clearance | Essential (Security) | Up to 1 year | Records verification against automated malicious bots via Cloudflare edge. |
| app_lang | Functional (Preference) | 1 year | Remembers chosen localization path (English / Russian). |
| calc_state | Functional (Calculator) | Session | Caches user inputs for visa quotas, office selection, and license fee estimates. |
| cookie_consent | Essential | 12 months | Acknowledges user familiarity with our cookie notification provisions. |
4. Third-Party Edge Services
To ensure ultra-low latency and DDoS resilience across international regions, uaecompany.biz is routed through Cloudflare global edge networks. These security layers set technical cookies to authenticate valid client browser sessions.
We do not allow commercial behavioral ad-tracking networks, social re-targeting pixels, or data broker beacons to execute on our domain.
5. How to Manage & Disable Cookies
Users maintain full autonomy to manage, inspect, or delete cookies at any time via browser configuration menus:
- Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy & Security → Third-party cookies → Block third-party cookies.
- Apple Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Block all cookies.
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Enhanced Tracking Protection.
- Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies.
6. Consequences of Disabling Cookies
Should you elect to universally block all cookies:
- Language preferences may revert to default values upon page refresh.
- Custom parameters computed within our interactive cost calculators may need to be re-entered.
- Cloudflare edge verification challenges may prompt more frequently during high-traffic sessions.
7. Revisions & Contact Desk
This Cookie Policy is reviewed periodically to reflect statutory updates and technological adjustments. Any changes will be published directly on this page with an updated revision date.
