1. Who We Are
Tashkelah is a UAE-based platform that helps diners discover exclusive walk-in offers from restaurants and cafés across the Emirates. When we say "Tashkelah", "we", "us" or "our", we mean the team operating this platform.

We collect only what is necessary to run the service:
- Usage data — which pages you visit and how you interact with the site (only if you consent to analytics cookies).
- Contact messages — if you reach out via our contact form.
We do not collect payment information, location data, or any personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, phone number, or physical address through analytics.
3. Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to collect anonymous usage statistics. Google Analytics helps us understand how visitors use our site so we can improve your experience.
Google Analytics collects:

We do not send any personally identifiable information to Google Analytics. IP anonymisation is enabled, and advertising features and Google Signals are disabled.
Google Analytics may use cookies and similar technologies to collect this data. You can learn how Google processes data at: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
Google Analytics is only loaded after you give consent via the cookie banner. If you decline or withdraw consent, no analytics data is collected.
