Privacy policy

Information that may be collected

You can browse Saudi Countdown and use its basic features without creating an account or directly providing personal information.

However, technical information may be collected or logged automatically, including your IP address, browser, operating system, device type, pages visited, visit date and time, referral source and interactions with the website.

Some information may be recorded in server logs or through analytics, measurement and external technical services used on the website.

Using website search

When you use search, your search phrase is sent to the website's server to process the request and display relevant results.

The website also limits repeated or excessive requests to protect the service from automated use or abuse and maintain its stability.

For this purpose, your IP address may be processed temporarily to help enforce usage limits and security measures.

Google services

Saudi Countdown may use Google services and tools to analyse website use, measure performance, improve the visitor experience and operate technical features.

These services include Google Analytics. Other Google services, such as tag management, measurement and advertising tools, may be added in future.

Google services may use cookies or similar technologies and collect technical information such as device and browser type, IP address, pages visited, time spent, website interactions and approximate referral information.

Google processes information under its own policies and terms. Depending on the service, Google may also collect some data as an independent service provider.

Google Analytics

The website uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors use it, including popular pages, referral sources and interactions with content.

This information helps improve website performance and content and understand how visitors use the service.

Google Analytics may use cookies or similar measurement technologies to collect usage information and generate statistical reports.

The website does not use Google Analytics to require your name or contact details to access its basic features.

Cookies and similar technologies

The website and its external services may use cookies and similar technologies to operate features, analyse use, measure performance, protect the website and improve the visitor experience.

Cookie types and retention periods depend on the service and its configuration.

You can control, delete or disable cookies in your browser settings. Disabling some technologies may affect website features or usage measurement.

Advertising and future services

The website may use advertising services or additional measurement and improvement services in future, including services from Google and other providers.

These services may use cookies, identifiers or similar technologies to display ads, measure their performance or assess their relevance under the provider's settings and practices.

This privacy policy will be updated when new services require additional explanation of data collection or processing.

• Operate the website and provide its services.

Sharing information with service providers

Some technical data may be processed by providers that help host, operate, analyse or protect the website, including hosting, analytics, measurement and technical service providers.

This may include Google when its services are used on the website.

Information retention

Retention periods depend on the type of information, the purpose of collection and the service processing it.

Server logs and security data may be retained for a suitable period for security and diagnostics. Data collected by external services is subject to their retention periods and settings.

Protecting information

We take appropriate technical measures to help protect the website and its data from unauthorised access, abuse and abnormal requests.

However, no method of transmitting or storing data online can be guaranteed completely secure.
