5. International Data Transfers

Lux Motors is based in the United Arab Emirates, and most of your personal data is stored and processed within the UAE. However, some of our technology providers (for example, cloud hosting, analytics, email, and messaging platforms such as WhatsApp and Telegram) may process data outside the UAE.

Where we transfer personal data outside the UAE, we do so in accordance with Article 22 and Article 23 of the UAE PDPL. This means we transfer data only to jurisdictions that provide an adequate level of protection, or under appropriate safeguards such as contractual commitments with the recipient that require a level of protection materially equivalent to UAE law, or where another lawful basis applies (for example, your explicit consent or the performance of a contract with you).

6. How Long We Keep Your Personal Data

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and to meet our legal, tax, regulatory, and contractual obligations:

  • Booking enquiries that do not lead to a rental are typically retained for up to 12 months, after which they are deleted or anonymised
  • Rental agreements, identification documents, and payment records are retained for a minimum of five (5) years from the end of the rental, in line with UAE commercial, tax, and anti-money-laundering record-keeping requirements
  • Accident, damage, fine, and insurance claim records are retained for as long as necessary to handle the matter and any related legal or regulatory proceedings, typically up to seven (7) years from resolution
  • Vehicle telematics and GPS data is retained on a rolling basis for the period necessary to investigate incidents, defend claims, and respond to lawful requests, then deleted in accordance with our internal retention schedule
  • CCTV footage from our showroom and yard is retained for the period required by UAE security regulations, typically up to 90 days unless required for an investigation
  • Marketing data is retained until you withdraw your consent or are inactive for an extended period

When personal data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymise it.

7. Your Rights Under the UAE PDPL

Under the UAE PDPL and applicable UAE law, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal data. These include:

We will review and respond to your request in accordance with applicable UAE law and within the timeframes we determine appropriate based on the nature and complexity of the request. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request, and we may decline or limit any request to the extent permitted by law, including where the request is excessive, unfounded, conflicts with our legal or contractual retention obligations, or would prejudice the rights of others.

8. How We Protect Your Personal Data

These measures include access controls, secure storage of physical documents at our Al Quoz facility, encryption of payment transactions through our payment service providers, secure web hosting, restricted access to customer files, and staff training on data handling and confidentiality.

Notwithstanding our security measures, no method of transmission over the internet, electronic storage, or physical record-keeping is completely secure.
