Privacy Policy
What we collect when you send a rental request, who receives it, and how to have it deleted.
This policy explains what RentACarInDubai.net does with the information you provide. It is written to be read rather than to be survived, and it describes actual practice on this site.
The short version
If you send a rental request, the details of that request are shared with an independent, licensed rental company so they can send you rental options or pricing. That is the whole purpose of the request. Nothing else is done with it, and it is not sold to anyone.
What we collect
Information you send us. When you make a rental enquiry — by WhatsApp, by email, or through a link on this site — we receive whatever you choose to include: typically your name, the phone number you contact us from, the dates and duration you need, the category of vehicle, and a delivery or collection area.
Information about the page you came from. So that a request can be routed to a company that covers the right category, an enquiry carries context: which page it came from, which category and language, and any campaign parameters in the link you followed.
We do not ask for identity documents. Passport scans, driving licence photographs, Emirates ID copies, visa documents and payment card details are not requested and should not be sent to us. If a rental company needs them, it will ask you directly at the point of hire.
Why we use it
The information is used for one purpose: to pass your rental request to a rental company that can respond to it, and to follow up on that request if needed. Aggregate, non-identifying information about which pages generate enquiries is used to decide what to write next.
Who it is shared with
Rental requests may be shared with an independent, licensed rental partner in order to provide you with rental options or pricing. That company is a separate business and becomes responsible for the information it receives from the point it receives it; its own privacy practices apply to what it does afterwards.
We do not sell enquiry information, and we do not share it with anyone other than a rental partner acting on your request.
Analytics
If analytics are used on this site, they record page-level behaviour — which pages are viewed, which links are used — and never personal details from an enquiry. Names, phone numbers, email addresses, message contents and document details are never sent to any analytics service.
Cookies
This site is a static website and does not require you to accept tracking in order to read it. Where any measurement is used, it is limited to the aggregate behaviour described above.
How long it is kept
Enquiry information is kept only as long as it is useful for handling and following up on the request, and is then removed. It is not retained indefinitely.
Your choices
You can ask what information relating to you is held, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted. Email [email protected] with enough detail to identify the enquiry — normally the phone number you used and roughly when you sent it.
If you have already been contacted by a rental company as a result of your enquiry, you may also need to make the request to that company directly, since it holds its own copy.
External links
Pages here link to official UAE government sources and to rental partners. Those sites have their own privacy practices, and this policy does not cover them.
Changes
If this policy changes materially, the updated date at the top of this page changes with it.
Identity Documents and Direct Communications
A common point of confusion for visitors requesting vehicle availability in Dubai involves the handling of identity verification materials, such as passport scans, international driving permits, Emirates IDs, or driver’s licenses. Because this site serves as an informational directory rather than a vehicle rental company, it is essential to understand how sensitive personal documentation is managed during the inquiry process.
When you submit an inquiry form or request a callback through this website, you may choose to attach or share copies of your identification documents to verify your eligibility to drive. Any identity files submitted through forms on this site are transmitted directly to the relevant rental partners selected to fulfill your request. This site does not retain scanned identity documents in permanent public databases, nor does it create centralized identity profiles for contract management.
A frequent mistake users make is assuming that transmitting identification through an online inquiry form completes the rental partner’s mandatory verification check or constitutes a finalized booking contract. In reality, every rental company operates under its own verification procedures, privacy standards, and identity retention policies. Once you transition to direct communication with a rental partner—whether via email, telephone, or instant messaging services—any documents, messaging history, or payment verification details you share fall under that individual rental company’s privacy practices.
To protect your personal information, consider the following practical steps:
- Avoid sending copies of sensitive identity documents until the specific rental partner requests them to verify your inquiry.
- Confirm directly with the rental company how long they retain digital scans or physical document copies after your vehicle rental period concludes.
- Verify all documentation requirements, accepted driver license categories, and security deposit policies directly with the rental partner before concluding your vehicle handover.
By keeping these practical steps in mind, you can ensure your personal identification details remain secure throughout both the inquiry stage and your direct interactions with the chosen rental partner.
