PxlGuide (“we”, “our”, “us”) operates pxlguide.com, a UAE-focused technology review and buying-guide website. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information We Collect
- Comments: when you leave a comment, we collect the name, email, and content you submit, plus your IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam (via Akismet).
- Contact forms: when you use our Contact page, the name, email, and message you submit are sent to us via WPForms.
- Newsletter signups: if you subscribe for tech deals and updates, your email address is stored with our email provider, Omnisend.
- Analytics: we use Google Analytics (via Google Site Kit) to understand anonymized, aggregated traffic patterns such as pages visited, device type, and approximate location.
- Cookies: we use essential cookies for site functionality, and third-party affiliate tracking cookies are set when you click an outbound “Check Price” link to a retailer such as Amazon.ae, Noon, or Sharaf DG.
Affiliate Links
Some links on PxlGuide are affiliate links. If you click through and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This does not influence our recommendations. See our Affiliate Disclosure for details.
Embedded Content
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. YouTube videos). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor had visited the other website directly, and those websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content.
How Long We Retain Data
Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize follow-up comments automatically. For users who register on this site, we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. Newsletter subscriber data is retained until you unsubscribe.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, except where we are legally required to retain it. To make such a request, contact us via our Contact page.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service (Akismet). Newsletter data is processed by Omnisend, and analytics data is processed by Google. These providers may store and process data outside the UAE, in accordance with their own privacy policies.
