Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how SG TRADING L.L.C-FZ uses cookies and similar technologies on sgtrading.biz and how those technologies may involve the Processing of Personal Data.
1. About this Cookies Policy
This Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy. SG TRADING L.L.C-FZ ("SGTRADING", "we", "us" or "our") operates sgtrading.biz and is responsible for determining how first-party cookies and similar technologies under our control are used.
Where information generated by a cookie or similar technology is Personal Data, we process it in accordance with applicable United Arab Emirates law, including Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 Concerning the Protection of Personal Data ("UAE PDPL").
2. What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small text files stored by a browser on a device when a website is visited. Cookies can support functions such as session management, security, remembering preferences and measuring how a visitor reached a website.
Websites may also use similar technologies such as local storage, session storage, pixels, embedded content and request identifiers. These technologies do not all operate in exactly the same way as cookies, but they can perform related functions and may involve technical identifiers or Personal Data.
3. How SGTRADING uses cookies and similar technologies
The website is a B2B enquiry website and does not provide public online checkout. We seek to keep website tracking proportionate to the functions actually required.
Technologies used on the website may fall into the following categories:
- Strictly necessary and security technologies that support basic website operation, security, administrative protection and session functionality
- Attribution technologies that record limited information about how a visitor reached the website or the current session
- Functional third-party content such as an embedded Google Map, which may cause a third-party provider to receive technical information when the content is loaded
Where a technology involves Personal Data and consent is required under applicable law, we will rely on consent. Where a specific exception under the UAE PDPL permits the relevant Processing without consent, we may rely on that exception. We do not interpret use of a strictly necessary website function as consent to unrelated marketing.
4. Cookies and technologies currently relevant to the website
The exact cookies present can vary by page, browser state and WordPress or WooCommerce configuration. The following table describes technologies identified as relevant to the current site configuration and the functions that may generate them.

| Google Maps embedded content | Displays the SGTRADING registered-office map. Loading the embed can disclose IP address, browser/device data and may cause Google to use cookies or similar identifiers | Determined by Google and may vary | Functional third-party content |
sbjs_* cookies listed above are associated with WooCommerce
order-attribution functionality and are used only while that functionality
is active. They are session-based attribution technologies and are not
intended for cross-session remarketing.4.1 Advertising and behavioural profiling
At the date of this Policy, the website is not intended to use cookies for cross-site behavioural advertising or automated advertising profiles. If advertising, remarketing or new analytics technologies are introduced, this Policy and any required consent mechanism should be updated before or at the time those technologies are activated.
5. Google Maps and external services
Certain pages may display a Google Maps embed showing the SGTRADING registered office in Dubai. Google Maps is a third-party service. When the embedded map loads, the user's browser communicates directly with Google, and Google may receive technical information and use cookies or similar technologies under its own privacy and cookie terms.
Links to WhatsApp, email or other external services do not by themselves mean that SGTRADING controls the external provider's cookies. When you leave sgtrading.biz or load third-party content, the relevant third party may apply its own privacy and cookie practices.
6. How you can control cookies
You can use browser settings to delete or block cookies. Most browsers allow you to view stored cookies, delete existing cookies, block all or selected cookies, or configure the browser to notify you when a cookie is being set. Blocking some operational cookies may affect website functionality.
Where the website provides a cookie-consent or privacy-preference control, you may use that control to change your preference for optional technologies. Where we rely on consent for Processing involving Personal Data, you may also withdraw that consent by contacting us. Withdrawal does not affect Processing that was lawful before withdrawal.
Third-party cookies or identifiers already stored by an external provider may need to be managed through your browser or the third party's own controls.
7. Data generated through cookies
Where cookie or similar-technology data is Personal Data, we retain it only for as long as necessary for the relevant purpose or as otherwise required or permitted by law. Cookie expiration does not necessarily determine how long related server-side records must be retained where such records are needed for security, legal compliance or a legitimate transaction record.
Further information about Personal Data, recipients, international transfers, security, retention and Data Subject rights is available in our Privacy Policy.
8. Changes to this Cookies Policy
We may update this Policy when website technologies, plugins, embedded services, legal requirements or our Processing practices change. The current version will be posted on this page and identified by the "Last updated" date.
