LEGAL POLICIES

What data this site collects, where it travels, and what governs the services. Written to be read, not skimmed past.

Last updated 11 August 2026

These policies govern ashrafazim.site, the free AI marketing tools hosted on it, and the digital marketing services offered by Ashraf Azim, an independent consultant based in Dubai, UAE. Questions: contact page.

Section 01

Privacy Policy

In plain wordsYou are told what is collected, who else sees it, how long it is kept, and how to have it deleted. Nothing is sold.

What is collected

Some data you enter yourself. Some is collected automatically the moment you open a page.

  • Name and email — from contact forms, tool result forms, and the newsletter.
  • Phone number — where you choose to provide it.
  • Business details you type into a tool — your website URL, brand name, field, target market, budget range, and campaign data you upload.
  • Chat messages — what you write to the assistant, plus the reply.
  • Account details — if you create an account to save reports: username, email, and your saved report history.
  • Technical data — IP address, browser, device, pages visited, and time on page.

How it is used

  • Running the tool you asked for and sending you its report.
  • Replying to enquiries and delivering agreed services.
  • Sending occasional marketing email — every message carries an unsubscribe link.
  • Understanding how the site is used so it can be improved.
  • Meeting legal obligations where they apply.

How long it is kept

  • Tool reports — 30 days, then deleted automatically. The permanent link stops working at that point.
  • Chat conversations — stored in your browser for the session and cleared after 30 minutes of inactivity.
  • Account data — kept until you ask for the account to be deleted.
  • Contact and enquiry records — kept while there is an active or recent working relationship.

What is never done

Your data is not sold, rented, or traded. It is not shared with anyone beyond the processors listed in the next section, and those receive only what is needed to perform their function.

Want your data removed? Email info@ashrafazim.site — requests are actioned within 30 days.

Section 02

Where Your Data Goes

In plain wordsThe AI tools work by sending what you type to AI companies outside the UAE. This table names every one of them.

The free tools on this site are not self-contained. When you run one, the text you entered is transmitted to third-party AI providers for processing, and their answer is returned to you. Those providers are named below, along with what reaches them.

ProviderWhat is sentLocation
Google (Gemini) Your typed inputs and the text of your chat messages United States
Groq The same inputs, when it is used as a fallback United States
OpenRouter The same inputs, when it is used as a fallback United States
Mistral Brand name and field, in the visibility tool only France

Your name, email and phone number are never sent to any AI provider. They stay on this site’s own server. Only the business text you type into a tool is transmitted, and only to run that tool.

International transfer

Because these providers operate outside the UAE, running a tool means your typed input is processed abroad. Data protection law in those countries differs from UAE law. If you would rather not have your business data processed this way, do not use the tools — the rest of the site works without them.

Other services that receive data

Email delivery

Sends your report, replies, and newsletters. Receives your email address and the message.

Calendly

Books consultation calls. Receives the name, email and time you enter when booking.

WhatsApp

If you start a chat, the conversation is governed by WhatsApp’s own privacy terms.

Section 03

Analytics & Tracking

In plain wordsOne of these tools records your session as a video. It is named first because it is the most invasive, not buried at the bottom.

Microsoft Clarity

Records how visitors move through pages — scrolling, clicks, and mouse movement — and replays it as an anonymised session recording. It also builds heatmaps of where people click. It does not capture your keystrokes in form fields, and text you type is masked before it leaves your browser.

session recording

Google Analytics

Counts visits, measures how long people stay, and shows which pages and countries traffic comes from. Aggregated, not tied to you personally.

Google Ads

Records which ad brought you here and whether you filled a form, so budget goes to what works. Also builds remarketing audiences.

Meta Pixel

The same measurement for Facebook and Instagram campaigns, and audience building for retargeting.

Children

This site and its tools are intended for business use by adults. Data is not knowingly collected from anyone under 18. If you believe a child has submitted information here, email the address above and it will be deleted.

Section 05

Terms & Conditions

In plain wordsUse the site lawfully. The free tools are informational and their output is a starting point, not a guarantee.

Agreement

By using ashrafazim.site you confirm you have read and accept these terms. If you disagree with any part, please do not use the site.


The free tools

  • They are provided free and without warranty, as informational aids.
  • Their output is generated by AI models and may contain errors. Verify anything before acting on it commercially.
  • A report is an analytical snapshot of one moment. Running the same tool again may produce a different result.
  • Usage limits apply so the tools stay available to everyone. Attempting to circumvent them may result in access being blocked.
  • They are not a substitute for professional advice on legal, financial, or regulatory matters.

Acceptable use

  • Do not attempt to access systems, accounts, or data you are not authorised to reach.
  • Do not scrape, mirror, or bulk-download the site or its tool outputs.
  • Do not submit data belonging to someone else without their permission.
  • Do not use the tools to generate misleading or unlawful material.

Services

Consulting engagements cover digital strategy, search optimisation, paid advertising, website development, content, and custom AI tool development. Deliverables, timelines, and fees are agreed in a separate written agreement for each engagement — nothing on this page constitutes an offer or a quote.

Results

Marketing outcomes depend on factors outside any consultant’s control: your market, your competitors, platform policy changes, and your own capacity to act on recommendations. No specific ranking, lead volume, or return is promised, on this site or in any engagement. Indicative timeframes shown on service pages describe typical patterns, not commitments.

Intellectual property

The text, design, code, and tools on this site are the property of Ashraf Azim. The AI Advertising Campaign Audit tool is registered with the UAE Ministry of Economy under reference MOE-CR-IPR-0003081-20260719. Reproduction without written permission is not permitted. Reports generated for you are yours to use freely.

Liability

To the extent permitted by law, no liability is accepted for indirect or consequential loss arising from use of this site or its free tools.

Governing law and changes

These terms are governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates. They may be revised at any time; the date at the top of this page shows the current version, and continued use after a change means acceptance of it.

Section 06

Cookie Policy

In plain wordsSmall files that remember things. Three kinds are used here, and you can switch them off.

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a site. They let it remember preferences, understand navigation, and measure campaigns. On their own they do not identify you by name.

Managing cookies in your browser

  • Chrome — Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies.
  • Firefox — Settings, then Privacy & Security, then Cookies and Site Data.
  • Safari — Settings, then Privacy, then Manage Website Data.
  • Edge — Settings, then Cookies and site permissions.

Anything unclear on this page? Email info@ashrafazim.site and it will be explained or rewritten.
