Overview

ELM Media Design (“ELM”, “we”, “us”) operates https://www.theelmdesign.com/. This policy explains what personal data we collect through the website, why we collect it, who we share it with, and the choices you have.

Last updated: 27 July 2026

Data we collect

  • Contact form. When you submit our consultation form, we receive your name, work email, phone number (optional), project type and message.
  • Footer email field. If you enter an email in the footer inquiry field, it is passed to the contact page as a query parameter in your browser only; we do not store it separately unless you submit the full form.
  • Website analytics. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand aggregate traffic (pages viewed, referrers, device/browser type). We do not use Google Analytics or advertising pixels on this site.
  • Server logs. Our hosting provider (Cloudflare) may process technical data such as IP address, request URL and user agent for security and delivery.

How we use data

  • Respond to commercial enquiries and consultation requests.
  • Improve site performance, content and security.
  • Comply with applicable law and defend legal claims where necessary.

We do not sell personal data. We do not use contact details for unrelated marketing without your consent.

Third-party processors

  • FormSubmit (formsubmit.co) — delivers contact form submissions to our inbox. Their privacy policy applies to that transmission.
  • Cloudflare — hosts the website, provides security and Web Analytics. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy.
  • Google Maps embed — the contact page embeds a map from Google. Google may process data when you interact with the map. See Google’s privacy policy.

Cookies & similar technologies

Cloudflare Web Analytics uses a lightweight beacon and may set first-party cookies or use similar storage to distinguish visits. These are used for aggregated statistics, not cross-site advertising profiles.

You can limit cookies through your browser settings. Blocking analytics cookies does not prevent you from using the site or submitting the contact form.

Retention

Enquiry emails are retained in our business inbox for as long as needed to manage the relationship, meet legal obligations and resolve disputes. Analytics data is retained according to Cloudflare’s configured retention periods.

Your rights

Depending on applicable law (including the UAE Personal Data Protection Law where it applies), you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict processing of your personal data, or to object to certain processing.

To exercise these rights, contact us at amin@letsadsmedia.com or +971 56 466 3334. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

International transfers

Form and analytics providers may process data outside the UAE. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards offered by those providers.

Changes

We may update this policy when our practices or legal requirements change. The “Last updated” date at the top will reflect the latest version.
