Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how AZM X Design & Innovation Studio (“AZM X”, “we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on www.azmx.sa and any sub-domains or pages that link to this notice (collectively, the “Site”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

If you have questions, contact us at info@azmx.sa.

1) Who we are

AZM X Design & Innovation Studio is based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. We design and deliver digital, design, innovation, and technology services for clients in KSA and internationally.

2) What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognize your device, remember preferences, and improve performance. We also use related technologies such as SDKs, local storage, pixels, and tags (together, “cookies”).

3) Why do we use cookies

We use cookies to:

  • keep the Site secure and working (e.g., load balancing, session management);

  • remember your preferences (e.g., language, cookie choices);

  • measure Site performance and improve content (analytics);

  • support personalization and, where used, marketing/remarketing.

4) Legal basis

  • Strictly necessary cookies: used to provide the service you request (legitimate interest/necessary for service).

  • All other cookies (e.g., analytics, marketing): used with your consent. You can change or withdraw consent at any time (see Your Choices).

We process personal data in line with the Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) and, where relevant, GDPR/UK GDPR for visitors from the EEA/UK.

5) Types of cookies we use

A. Strictly Necessary (cannot be switched off)

Enable core functions like page navigation, security, fraud prevention, and cookie preference storage.

B. Performance & Analytics

Help us understand how visitors use the Site (e.g., page views, scroll depth, device types) so we can improve usability and content.

C. Functionality

Remember choices (e.g., language, region) and enhance features. These may be set by us or by providers whose services we embed.

D. Advertising & Social (if implemented)

Enable ad measurement, personalization, or social media features. These may build a profile of your interests. They work by uniquely identifying your browser/device.

6) Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by third parties (for example, analytics, A/B testing, performance monitoring, social platforms, or embedded videos). These third parties may process your data for their own purposes according to their privacy policies. We encourage you to review those policies where applicable.

7) Your choices

A. Cookie banner & preferences

On your first visit, we ask for your consent for non-essential cookies. You can review or change your choices at any time via “Cookie Settings” in the Site footer.

B. Browser controls

Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Disabling cookies may affect Site functionality. See your browser’s Help section for instructions.

C. Mobile advertising IDs

On iOS/Android, you can reset or limit ad tracking in device settings.

8) Data retention

Cookie lifetimes vary. Session cookies expire when you close your browser; persistent cookies stay longer (days to months). We retain analytics data only as long as needed for the stated purposes and legal requirements.

9) International transfers

Where third-party providers process data outside KSA, we take steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place (e.g., contractual protections) consistent with PDPL and, where relevant, GDPR.

10) Do Not Track & GPC

Some browsers offer Do Not Track (DNT) or Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals. Our consent platform endeavors to honor recognized, supported signals for non-essential cookies where technically feasible. Use Cookie Settings for the most reliable control.

11) Updates to this Policy

We may update this Policy to reflect changes to cookies or laws. Material changes will be highlighted on this page, with an updated “Last updated” date.
