8.UAE Data Protection Rights

SmartCorp Technologies LLC is established in the United Arab Emirates. Our collection and processing of personal data is governed by Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data (the “UAE PDPL”) and its implementing regulations, read together with Federal Decree-Law No. 44 of 2021 establishing the UAE Data Office, Federal Decree-Law No. 46 of 2021 on Electronic Transactions and Trust Services, and Federal Decree-Law No. 34 of 2021 on Combatting Rumours and Cybercrimes, each as applicable.

Under the UAE PDPL, you have the right to:

• Be informed — to request information about how your personal data is processed, the purposes of processing, and the parties with whom it is shared.
• Request a transfer — to receive your personal data in a structured, machine-readable format, or to have it transferred to another controller where technically feasible.
• Request correction or erasure — to have inaccurate or incomplete personal data corrected, and to have your personal data deleted, subject to the exceptions set out in the UAE PDPL.
• Restrict or stop processing — to request that we restrict or cease processing of your personal data in the circumstances permitted by the UAE PDPL.
• Object to processing — including to object to decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal consequences for you.
• Withdraw consent — where our processing relies on your consent, you may withdraw it at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@smartcorpglobal.com. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request, and we will respond within the period prescribed by the UAE PDPL.

Where we transfer personal data outside the United Arab Emirates, we do so only to jurisdictions recognised as providing an adequate level of protection, or under appropriate contractual safeguards, in accordance with the UAE PDPL.

If you believe that your personal data has been handled improperly, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the UAE Data Office.
