1.4 Google Ads, Analytics & Third-Party Advertising
This section specifically governs our use of Google's advertising and analytics products on wenestre.com.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors interact with wenestre.com. GA4 collects anonymised behavioural data including page views, session duration, traffic sources, and conversion events. This data is processed by Google LLC and stored on Google's servers in accordance with Google's privacy policy.
Google Analytics uses cookies (see Section 1.5). You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on.
Google Ads (Google Search and Display Network)
We run paid advertising campaigns through Google Ads to reach prospective property investors across our target markets. As a result of using Google Ads:
- Remarketing / Retargeting: We may use Google Ads remarketing tags to show WeNest advertisements to people who have previously visited wenestre.com, as they browse other websites in the Google Display Network or conduct searches on Google. This uses cookies placed on your device when you visited our site.
- Conversion Tracking: We track conversion events (such as contact form submissions, WhatsApp click-throughs, and phone number clicks) using Google Ads conversion tracking tags. This helps us measure the effectiveness of our advertising spend.
- Custom Audiences: We may upload anonymised contact lists (hashed email addresses only) to Google to create Custom Match audiences. Uploads are hashed before transmission and are not shared with Google in plain text.
- Lookalike Audiences (Similar Audiences): Google may use aggregated data about your behaviour on our site to show our ads to people with similar interests or browsing patterns.
- Interest-Based Advertising: Google uses data from your browsing history across the web to deliver interest-based ads. WeNest does not control how Google uses this data to determine ad targeting.
You can control interest-based advertising from Google at: https://adssettings.google.com
You can opt out of interest-based advertising across the web at: https://www.youronlinechoices.com (EU/UK) or https://optout.aboutads.info (US/global)
Google's Data Processing
When you interact with our Google Ads (see, click, or convert through them), Google processes data about your interaction in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy. WeNest and Google are separate and independent data controllers for this purpose. WeNest does not receive individually identifiable data from Google about ad interactions — only aggregated reporting metrics.
Meta (Facebook / Instagram) Advertising
We may also run paid advertising on Meta platforms including Facebook and Instagram. Meta's Pixel or SDK may collect data about your visits to wenestre.com to measure ad performance and build Custom and Lookalike Audiences. You can manage Meta ad preferences at https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences.
1.6 Data Sharing and Third Parties
We share your personal data only in the following circumstances:
- HubSpot CRM: Your contact and deal data is stored and processed in HubSpot. HubSpot acts as our data processor under a data processing agreement.
- Google LLC: Anonymised or aggregated data via Google Analytics and Google Ads. WeNest does not share personally identifiable data with Google's advertising systems, except via hashed Custom Match uploads.
- Meta Platforms: Aggregated conversion data via Meta Pixel. WeNest does not pass individually identifiable data to Meta.
- Developer Partners: Where you express interest in a specific project, we may share your name and contact details with the relevant developer (e.g. Emaar, Binghatti, Aldar) solely to facilitate the enquiry or booking process. We do not sell or license your data to developers.
- Referral Partners: If you were introduced to WeNest by an IFA, immigration consultant, or mortgage broker, that partner may be informed of your transaction milestone (e.g. deal closed) for the purpose of calculating referral commission. We share the minimum information necessary for this purpose.
- Legal and Regulatory Authorities: We may disclose your information if required to do so by UAE law, RERA regulations, DLD requirements, or a lawful order from a competent authority.
- Professional Advisers: Our legal counsel, accountants, and auditors, where necessary for their professional services.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for their own marketing purposes.
1.7 International Data Transfers
WeNest serves clients based internationally. Your personal data may be stored or processed in countries outside the UAE, including the United States (Google, HubSpot servers) and the European Union.
Where data is transferred outside the UAE, we rely on appropriate safeguards including Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or the processor's certification under equivalent privacy frameworks.
