Cookie Policy

Effective date: 11 May 2026 Last updated: 11 May 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how TDG ("The Development Group", "we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on the Website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal data more broadly.

By continuing to use the Website, you agree to the use of cookies as described in this policy, except where your consent is specifically required. You can change your preferences at any time using the controls described below.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit. They allow the website to recognise your device and remember information about your visit, such as your preferences and how you interact with the site.

We also use similar technologies, including pixels, tags, and local storage. In this policy, references to "cookies" include these technologies unless we say otherwise.

Cookies may be:

  • Session cookies, which are temporary and deleted when you close your browser.

  • Persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them.

  • First-party cookies, which are set by TDG.

  • Third-party cookies, which are set by services we use, such as analytics providers.

2. Why we use cookies

We use cookies to:

  • Operate the Website and keep it secure

  • Remember your preferences, such as language

  • Understand how visitors use the Website so we can improve it

  • Measure the performance of our content and communications

  • Where you have consented, support marketing and outreach activity

We do not use cookies to make automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you.

3. Categories of cookies we use

3.1 Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the Website to function. They enable core features such as page navigation, secure areas, and form submission. The Website cannot operate properly without them, and they do not require your consent.

3.2 Performance and analytics cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Website by collecting information such as pages visited, time spent on the site, and any errors encountered. The information is aggregated and used to improve how the Website works.

We may use third-party analytics services for this purpose. These cookies are only set with your consent.

3.3 Functionality cookies

These cookies allow the Website to remember choices you make, such as your preferred language or region, and provide enhanced features. They are only set with your consent where required.

3.4 Marketing and targeting cookies

These cookies may be set by us or by third-party providers to measure the effectiveness of our communications and, where applicable, to deliver content relevant to you on other platforms. They are only set with your consent.

4. Third-party cookies

Some cookies on the Website are placed by third parties that provide services to us, such as analytics, content delivery, and embedded media. These third parties may process information about your visit in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review.

We do not control third-party cookies and are not responsible for the practices of third parties. We select providers carefully and require them to handle data in line with applicable law.

5. Your choices

You have the following options for managing cookies:

Consent banner. When you first visit the Website, you will see a cookie banner that allows you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or choose specific categories. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled through the banner because they are required for the Website to operate.

Browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies, and to block cookies from specific sites or all sites. The relevant settings are usually found in the "Privacy" or "Security" section of your browser. Please note that blocking all cookies may affect how the Website functions.

Do Not Track signals. Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" setting. The Website does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals, as no consistent standard has been adopted, but you can manage cookies through the methods above.

Withdrawing consent. Where we rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time by adjusting your preferences in the cookie banner or by clearing cookies in your browser. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

6. How long cookies remain on your device

The length of time a cookie remains on your device depends on whether it is a session cookie or a persistent cookie. Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period, which varies by cookie and provider. You can delete cookies at any time through your browser settings.

7. Data protection and your rights

The Website is operated from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and the processing of personal data through cookies is governed by the Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) issued by Royal Decree M/19, together with its implementing regulations. Where applicable, other data protection laws may also apply to visitors located outside Saudi Arabia.

Where cookies collect personal data, you may have rights including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your data, and to lodge a complaint with the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA). For further information about your rights and how we handle personal data, please see our Privacy Policy.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, law, or our practices. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Material changes will be communicated through the Website. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
