Our principles
How we think about your privacy.
No account required
Use the calculator anonymously. We don't ask for your name, email or payment details.
Inputs stay in your browser
AED amounts you type are processed locally on your device — never sent to our servers.
Transparent about cookies
Only strictly-necessary cookies and Google AdSense advertising cookies are used.
Your rights, respected
Access, correct or delete your data at any time by emailing the team.
1. Who we are
VATly UAE ("we", "our", "us") operates this website and provides a free VAT calculator and educational articles about UAE Value Added Tax. You can contact us at hello@vatlyuae.com.
2. Information we collect
VATly UAE does not require you to create an account, and we do not ask for your name, email or payment details to use the calculator. The information processed when you visit our site falls into two categories:
- Calculator inputs — the AED amounts you enter are processed entirely in your browser and are never sent to our servers.
- Standard log data — like most websites, our hosting provider automatically records IP address, browser type, referring page and timestamps for security and abuse prevention.
4. Google AdSense and third-party advertising
This site is monetised through Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies and device identifiers to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can:
- Opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings.
- Opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info.
- Read more about Google's data practices at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
For visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland, Google operates under its Consent Management Platform and will request your consent for personalised advertising before serving such ads.
5. Analytics
We may use privacy-friendly analytics to understand which articles are read most often. No personally identifying information is collected.
6. Children's privacy
VATly UAE is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect data from them.
7. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict the processing of your personal data. To exercise these rights, email hello@vatlyuae.com.
8. Changes to this policy
