Skylark Contracting LLC

Privacy Policy

Last updated:

1. About This Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Skylark Contracting LLC (“Skylark”, “we”, “us” or “our”) handles personal information collected through skylark.ae and related enquiries, quotation requests, recruitment applications and vendor registrations.

Skylark Contracting LLC is based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and holds DED Licence No. 720039. For the activities described in this policy, we determine why and how the personal information is processed.

2. Information We Collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:

  • Contact details: your name, email address, telephone number, company name and job title.
  • Project information: site location, property details, proposed scope, budget, drawings, BOQs, photographs and other files you provide.
  • Recruitment information: your CV, qualifications, employment history, availability and other information submitted with an application.
  • Vendor information: business contact details, company profiles, trade licences, service categories and supporting credentials.
  • Communications: messages and correspondence relating to your enquiry or our business relationship.
  • Technical information: IP address, browser and device information, access times and website activity recorded by hosting, security or other enabled website tools.

Please provide only information relevant to your request. Do not upload identity documents, financial account details or sensitive personal information unless we specifically request them through an appropriate channel.

3. How We Use Information

We use relevant information to:

  • Respond to enquiries and communicate about your project.
  • Review drawings, assess requirements, prepare estimates and quotations, and arrange meetings or site visits.
  • Manage agreed services, project coordination, procurement and contractual administration.
  • Review job applications and contact suitable candidates.
  • Assess prospective suppliers, subcontractors and service providers.
  • Operate, maintain and protect our website and business systems.
  • Meet applicable legal obligations and establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

4. Grounds for Processing

We process personal information where permitted by applicable law. Depending on the circumstances, this may involve your consent, steps you request before entering a contract, performance of a contract, employment-related obligations, compliance with legal requirements or the establishment or defence of legal claims.

Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw that consent by contacting us. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out beforehand.

5. Project Files and Information About Others

Drawings, photographs and other uploaded documents may contain personal information about owners, occupants, consultants or other people. Please ensure you are authorised to share these materials and remove information that is unnecessary for our review.

Project files are used for reviewing and administering your request and any resulting services. Submission of project photographs does not, by itself, authorise us to publish them for marketing purposes.

6. Sharing Information

Where necessary for the relevant purpose, information may be shared with:

  • Authorised personnel handling enquiries, projects, recruitment or procurement.
  • Hosting, email, IT support, file-storage and website service providers supporting our operations.
  • Appointed consultants, specialist subcontractors, suppliers and project participants where needed to assess or deliver the requested works.
  • Professional advisers, authorities or other parties where disclosure is required or permitted by law.

Sharing should be limited to information relevant to the purpose, with appropriate confidentiality and data protection arrangements.

7. Cookies and Website Technologies

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies for essential functionality, security and preferences. Analytics, advertising or embedded third-party features, if enabled, may also collect technical information or place cookies on your device.

Where required, non-essential technologies should operate only after the appropriate consent has been obtained. You can manage cookies through available website controls and your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect website functionality.

8. External Links and WhatsApp

Our website contains links to external services, including Google Maps and WhatsApp. When you follow these links, the relevant provider’s privacy terms apply to its handling of your information.

Messages you send to Skylark through WhatsApp or email are handled by us for the purposes described in this policy, alongside the processing performed by the relevant platform provider.

9. International Processing

Hosting, email, storage or other technology providers may process information outside the United Arab Emirates. Where international transfers occur, applicable legal requirements and appropriate safeguards must be observed.

10. Retention

Personal information is retained for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, taking account of the enquiry or project status, contractual requirements, applicable record-keeping obligations and potential claims.

Recruitment and vendor submissions are reviewed according to the relevant recruitment or procurement purpose. Retention for future opportunities requires an appropriate lawful basis. You may contact us to request removal of your submission, subject to applicable requirements.

11. Security

Appropriate technical and organisational measures are required to protect personal information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or loss. No website, email system or online transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.

12. Your Privacy Rights

Subject to applicable law and relevant conditions, you may have rights to:

  • Obtain information about the processing of your personal data and request access to it.
  • Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Request deletion of personal data in qualifying circumstances.
  • Request restriction of, or object to, certain processing.
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
  • Request transfer of your data where applicable.
  • Raise a concern with the competent data protection authority.

To make a request, email info@skylark.ae with the subject “Privacy Request”. We may need to verify your identity before responding. Some information may need to be retained to comply with legal obligations or protect legal rights.

13. Marketing Communications

Submitting an enquiry, job application or vendor registration does not automatically subscribe you to unrelated marketing. Any marketing use of personal information must comply with applicable requirements, including consent where required.

You may ask us to stop sending marketing communications by contacting us or using any unsubscribe facility provided. This does not prevent necessary communications about your enquiry, contract or ongoing services.

14. Updates to This Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our website, operations or applicable requirements. The latest version will be published on this page with an updated revision date.
