Privacy Policy
Effective date: 1 June 2026 · Last updated: 1 June 2026
This privacy policy outlines how Taskify, as a data controller, collects, processes, and protects your personal data. Taskify is a technology company based in Dubai, UAE. When you interact with us through this website or its subdomains, we process your data in accordance with applicable privacy laws including UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data (UAE PDPL) and our commitment to transparency and responsibility.
1. How Taskify uses personal data
At Taskify, we leverage the personal data we collect to deliver, improve, and personalise our task management platform as well as your overall experience with our brand. Specifically, we use your data to:
Provide and Maintain Our Services: host, secure, update, and troubleshoot the Taskify platform and website; fulfil your transactions, such as provisioning new user accounts or workspaces, and deliver any related documentation or onboarding materials; and share necessary information with third-party service providers (e.g., cloud hosting or payment processors) to complete the service you've requested.
Customer Support & Inquiry Management: respond to your support tickets, help-desk inquiries, and feedback submissions whether you contact us via email or phone and escalate and track open issues to resolution, ensuring we have the right context and history to assist you quickly.
Product Development & Improvement: analyse usage patterns, feature adoption, and performance metrics to prioritise new functionality or UX enhancements, and conduct A/B tests and pilot programmes drawing on depersonalised user cohorts to validate product changes before broad rollout.
Personalisation & User Experience: tailor in-app dashboards, notifications, and help content to your role (e.g., project manager vs. team member) and previous interactions, and recommend relevant best practices, integrations, or learning resources based on your industry segment and feature usage.
Marketing, Advertising & Outreach: with your consent, send promotional emails, newsletters, and invitations to Taskify events; use aggregated analytics and cookie-based signals to deliver more relevant ads on third-party sites; and respect your opt-out preferences at every step via clear unsubscribe links or preference-centre controls.
Business Operations & Compliance: satisfy our legal obligations (e.g., financial reporting, audit trails) and internal governance requirements.
2. Legal bases for processing your personal data
When Taskify acts as a data controller, we rely on the following lawful grounds for processing your personal data under the UAE PDPL:
Consent: you have affirmatively opted in (e.g., by checking a consent box) to receive marketing communications or to enable non-essential cookies.
Contract Performance: processing is necessary to deliver the Taskify services you've subscribed to such as creating your user account, billing, or granting access to workspaces under your plan.
Legal Obligation: we must process certain data to comply with applicable laws (e.g., tax reporting, UAE PDPL obligations, employment requirements).
Legitimate Interests: we process data when it is necessary for our legitimate business interests like improving platform security, preventing fraud, or analysing service usage provided those interests do not override your rights and freedoms.
Research & Analytics (Depersonalised Data): we may aggregate and anonymise personal data for statistical research and product-development purposes, which poses minimal privacy risk and cannot be traced back to you.
Data Processor Instructions: when we process your data on behalf of a customer, we do so under their documented instructions and rely on their legal basis for that processing.
4. Your personal data rights
You have control over how Taskify collects, uses, and shares your personal data. To exercise any of the rights described below, please contact our Privacy Team at info@taskify.ae or use our online Privacy Request Form. We will respond in accordance with applicable legal timeframes under the UAE PDPL.
Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to:
Access: request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
Rectification: ask us to correct or update inaccurate or incomplete information.
Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): request deletion of your personal data when it's no longer needed for the purposes described in this policy.
Restriction of Processing: ask us to limit how we use your data for example, to suspend processing while we verify a dispute.
Object: opt out of processing based on our legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.
Withdraw Consent: if we rely on your consent, you can revoke it at any time (without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing).
Data Portability: receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used electronic format and, where technically feasible, have it transmitted to another controller.
Opt-out of Targeted Advertising & Profiling: stop the use of your data for profiling or tailored advertising.
Complain to a Supervisory Authority: lodge a complaint with the UAE Data Office (www.dataoffice.gov.ae) if you believe we have infringed your rights.
5. Personal data processing for direct marketing purposes
Taskify respects your marketing preferences and will only send you promotional communications if you have opted in or where otherwise permitted by law. You can manage your preferences at any time by:
Clicking the unsubscribe link included in every marketing email.
Visiting our Preference Centre to update your contact and marketing choices.
Contacting us directly at info@taskify.ae.
Please note that while you may opt out of marketing emails, we may still send you important transactional or service-related messages (such as account updates, billing notices, or security alerts) that are necessary to maintain your Taskify account.
6. International transfers of data
Taskify operates primarily within the UAE. Where we transfer personal data internationally to affiliates, service providers, and partners located in other countries, we implement appropriate transfer mechanisms in accordance with the UAE PDPL, such as:
Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs): we include SCCs in our agreements with data importers to ensure your data receives appropriate protections.
Binding Corporate Rules (BCRs): where applicable, we rely on our internal data-handling policies to govern intra-group transfers.
UAE Data Office Approved Mechanisms: for transfers outside the UAE, we comply with frameworks recognised by the UAE Data Office.
Whenever local law requires additional safeguards or approvals, we comply before initiating any cross-border transfer. If you would like more information about our specific transfer safeguards, please contact our Privacy Team.
8. Services provided by your organisation
If your employer or another organisation grants you access to Taskify (for example, using a corporate email address or single-sign-on), that organisation acts as the data controller for your account. In these cases:
Account Administration: your organisation can manage your user permissions, reset passwords, and access activity logs.
Data Access & Processing: your employer may view or export certain data you enter into Taskify (e.g., tasks, project data) in accordance with their internal policies.
Support & Compliance: any privacy inquiries or data-subject requests related to your use of Taskify under your organisation's account should be directed first to your internal administrator.
Taskify is not responsible for the privacy or security practices of your organisation. We recommend reviewing your employer's privacy policies or contacting your administrator for more details on how they handle your information.
9. Data retention
Taskify retains your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy and to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, or contractual requirements. Specifically:
Active Relationship: we keep data while you maintain an active account, attend our events, or otherwise engage with Taskify.
Post-Relationship Period: after our direct relationship ends such as when you close your account we retain your data for a defined period to comply with statutory retention obligations (e.g., financial records, tax audits), defend against or pursue legal claims, resolve any outstanding support issues or complaints, and conduct historical analysis and improve our services.
Once retention periods expire, we either securely delete or anonymise your personal data so it can no longer be associated with you.
10. How we protect your personal data
The security of your information is a top priority. Taskify implements a multi-layered security programme that includes:
Administrative Controls: regular staff training, data-protection policies, and role-based access restrictions.
Technical Safeguards: encryption of data at rest and in transit, intrusion-detection systems, network segmentation, and routine vulnerability assessments.
Physical Measures: secure data centres with controlled access, surveillance, and environmental protections.
Although we strive to provide robust protection, no system is impervious to every threat. In the unlikely event of a data incident, we will promptly investigate, notify affected individuals and the UAE Data Office as required, and take corrective action to prevent recurrence.
11. Personal data processed on behalf of our customers
When organisations use Taskify to manage their own end-user relationships such as teams logging task data or customers registering for support those organisations act as the data controllers. In these cases:
Taskify operates solely as a data processor, handling personal data under the controller's instructions.
Our Data Processing Addendum governs these engagements and ensures that we meet or exceed legal requirements for data handling, security, and confidentiality under the UAE PDPL.
For questions about how your data is used by a Taskify customer, please consult their privacy policy or reach out to their data-protection officer.
12. Links to third-party websites
Our platform and communications may include links to external sites or services operated by third parties. Taskify is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We encourage you to review each site's privacy policy before providing any personal information.
13. Updates to our privacy policy
Taskify may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or new features. Each version will display a "Last Updated" date at the top. If we make material changes that significantly affect how we process your personal data or your rights, we will:
Post notice of the changes on our website.
Where required by UAE law, obtain your consent again or provide you with an opportunity to review and accept the changes.
All updates become effective on the date we post the revised policy unless we specify otherwise.
