Privacy Policy.

1. Who We Are

Talk The Taste, also known as TTT, is a creative, marketing, web, software and content agency based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates and serving clients internationally.

This Privacy Policy applies to our website, landing pages, advertisements, social pages, forms, email communications, WhatsApp communications, phone calls, SMS/text messages, proposals, client onboarding and other business interactions.

Information you provide

• Name, company name, job title and business details.
• Email address, phone number, WhatsApp number, country code and preferred contact method.
• Project details, budget, website, social media handle, brand materials, files and messages you send us.
• Payment, billing and contract information when you become a client.
• Marketing preferences, consent records and opt-out requests.

Information collected automatically

• Device, browser, operating system, language, approximate location, IP-derived region and time zone.
• Pages viewed, buttons clicked, forms started or submitted, referral source, UTM parameters and session activity.
• Cookie identifiers, advertising identifiers, pixel events, analytics events and conversion events where permitted.

2. Permission to Contact Leads

When you submit a form, book a call, message us, request a quote, download a resource, respond to an advertisement or otherwise provide your contact details, you authorize Talk The Taste to contact you about your enquiry, our services and related business opportunities.

We may contact you by email, WhatsApp, phone call, SMS/text message, direct message, retargeting audience, postal mail or any other contact method you provide or make available to us, subject to applicable law and platform rules.

Consent is not a condition of purchase where prohibited by law. You can opt out of marketing messages at any time by replying "STOP", asking us not to contact you, using an unsubscribe link where available, or emailing us at hi@talkthetaste.com. Transactional, service, billing and legal notices may still be sent where necessary.

3. Cookies, Analytics and Paid Advertising

We may use cookies, pixels, tags, SDKs, server-side events, analytics scripts and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, understand visitor behavior, prevent abuse, measure conversions and show relevant ads.

These technologies may be provided by advertising, analytics and business platforms such as Google, Apple, Meta/Facebook/Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, Reddit, X, Snapchat, Pinterest, Microsoft, analytics providers, CRM tools, form tools, hosting providers and other platforms that allow paid advertising or lead generation.

We may use advertising data to create or update custom audiences, lookalike or similar audiences, retargeting lists, conversion reports and campaign optimization events. We do not sell personal information for money. Some privacy laws may treat targeted advertising, cross-context behavioral advertising or audience sharing as a "sale" or "sharing"; where those laws apply, you may request to opt out.

4. How We Use Information

• Respond to enquiries, provide quotes, schedule calls and manage client relationships.
• Deliver marketing, branding, web design, software, SEO, content, photography, videography and advertising services.
• Send service updates, proposals, invoices, reminders, follow-ups, newsletters and promotional messages.
• Analyze website performance, improve user experience, debug issues and prevent spam or misuse.
• Measure ad performance, attribute conversions, optimize campaigns and build relevant advertising audiences.
• Comply with legal, tax, accounting, platform, fraud prevention, security and contractual obligations.

5. How We Share Information

We may share information with trusted service providers and partners who help us operate our business, including hosting, analytics, advertising platforms, CRM systems, email tools, messaging tools, payment processors, accounting tools, cloud storage, project management tools, contractors and professional advisers.

We may also share information when required by law, to protect our rights or users, during a business transfer, or with your consent. We require service providers to use information only for permitted business purposes and to protect it appropriately.

Where we upload customer lists, lead data or conversion events to advertising platforms, we do so to measure, suppress, retarget or optimize campaigns, subject to the platform's customer data, custom audience, lead ad and conversion tracking terms.

6. Your Choices and Opt-Outs

• Email: use the unsubscribe link if available or email us to opt out.
• WhatsApp, calls and SMS/texts: reply with an opt-out request such as "STOP" or ask us not to contact you.
• Cookies: adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies. Some features may not work correctly.
• Targeted ads: use the privacy and ad preference tools provided by Google, Apple, Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok, Reddit and other platforms.
• Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control: where legally required and technically supported, we will honor recognized opt-out preference signals.

7. Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, including in the UAE, UK, EEA, California and other regions, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, portability, restriction, objection, withdrawal of consent, or opt out of targeted advertising, sale or sharing of personal information.

GDPR Compliant

TTT complies with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). TTT follows GDPR requirements, including but not limited to rights of data subjects to access, correct, or delete their personal information and supports the right to be forgotten.

CCPA Compliant

TTT is CCPA-compliant and provides California residents the right to know, access, opt out, and request deletion of their personal data.

To make a request, contact us at hi@talkthetaste.com. We may need to verify your identity and may retain information where necessary for legal, accounting, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, platform compliance or service obligations.

8. Security, Retention and International Transfers

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. No online service is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We retain personal information for as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, including to manage leads, serve clients, keep business records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements and improve advertising performance. Lead and marketing data may be retained until you ask us to delete it or opt out, unless we have a lawful reason to keep it.

Because we work internationally and use global service providers, information may be processed in the UAE, United States, Europe, India or other countries. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for cross-border data transfers.

9. Sensitive Data, Children and Third-Party Sites

Please do not send sensitive personal information unless we specifically request it for a lawful business purpose. This includes government IDs, health information, financial account details, precise biometric data, religious beliefs or other highly sensitive data.

Our services are intended for business users and are not directed to children under 13, or a higher minimum age where local law requires it. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children for advertising or lead generation.

Our website and ads may link to third-party websites, social platforms, payment pages or messaging tools. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.

10. Updates and Contact

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect business, legal, platform or technical changes. The effective date above shows when it was last updated.
