Cookie policy
Every cookie this site uses, what it does, how long it lasts, and how to change your choice.
This page explains the cookies and similar browser storage that dubaibusinessinsight.com uses, what each one does, and how to change your choice.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website saves in your browser. Browser storage (such as “local storage”) works in a similar way. Websites use them to remember choices and to measure how pages are used.
Our approach
- The site works fully with no optional cookies at all.
- Before you choose, we set no cookies and Google Analytics does not load.
- Analytics cookies are set only after you click “Accept”. If you click “Reject”, Google Analytics never loads.
- We don’t use advertising, social media or cross-site tracking cookies.
The cookies and storage we use
| Name | Type | Set by | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| dbi_consent | Strictly necessary (browser local storage, not a cookie) | Us | Remembers whether you clicked “Accept” or “Reject”, so we don’t ask again on every page | Until you clear your browser data |
| _ga | Analytics (only after “Accept”) | Google Analytics | Tells one visitor apart from another, without telling us who you are | Up to 13 months |
| _ga_P9FVB2BKVR | Analytics (only after “Accept”) | Google Analytics | Keeps track of your current visit | Up to 13 months |
| wordpress_*, wordpress_logged_in_*, wp-settings-* | Strictly necessary | Us | Keep our editors signed in to the site’s admin area. Never set for readers | Session, or up to 1 year |
Strictly necessary storage doesn’t need your consent because the site needs it to work as you asked. Everything else waits for your “Accept”.
Other websites
When you click a link to another site, a share button (WhatsApp, LinkedIn, X) or a “Summarize with AI” button, you leave our site. The other site may set its own cookies under its own policy.
How to change your choice
- Click “Cookie settings” at the bottom of any page and choose again.
- Delete cookies and site data in your browser settings. You will see our banner again on your next visit.
- Most browsers let you block cookies completely. Our site still works if you do.
- Google also offers a browser add-on to opt out of Google Analytics on every website.
Changes
If we add or remove a cookie, we will update this table and the “Updated” date first. We will always ask before adding any optional cookie.
