Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 18, 2026

Gulf Desk Services ("Gulf Desk," "we," "us," or "our") provides recruitment, back-office, HR and payroll, workspace, and related business support services to employers across the GCC and Pakistan. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through gulfdesks.com and our related forms and application processes, how we use it, and the choices you have. It applies to visitors to our website, employers who submit a requirement or inquiry, and candidates who apply for a role through our Careers page.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us, including:

  • Contact and inquiry details submitted through our contact forms - name, company, email address, phone number, and the details of your inquiry.
  • Job application information submitted through our Careers page - name, email, phone number, address, LinkedIn or portfolio links, years of experience, your resume/CV, and any other information you choose to include in your application.
  • Basic technical information such as your browser type and general usage of our site, to the extent this is automatically recorded by our hosting provider for security and performance purposes.

We do not currently use third-party analytics or advertising tracking on this site. If that changes, we will update this policy accordingly.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to your inquiries and requirements submitted through our contact forms.
  • Evaluate and process job applications, including reviewing your resume and contacting you about opportunities that match your background.
  • Deliver the recruitment, back-office, HR, workspace, or other services you've engaged us for.
  • Send you updates or communications you've opted into, such as hiring insights or new job alerts.
  • Maintain the security and proper functioning of our website.

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only where necessary to deliver our services or operate our business, including:

  • With relevant internal teams (recruitment, HR, or client-facing teams) who need the information to process your inquiry or application.
  • With the specific employer you've applied to through Gulf Desk, where you've applied for a role we're recruiting for on their behalf.
  • With service providers who help us operate our website or communications (for example, email delivery), bound to only use your information to provide that service to us.
  • Where required to comply with a legal obligation or valid request from a public authority.

4. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy - for example, for as long as your job application remains under active consideration, or for as long as needed to respond to your inquiry and maintain a record of our communications. Where we no longer have an ongoing need to retain your information, we will delete or anonymize it.

5. Your Rights

You may contact us at any time to:

  • Request access to the personal information we hold about you.
  • Request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
  • Request that we delete your information, including withdrawing a job application.
  • Ask us to stop using your information for a particular purpose, such as marketing communications.

To make any of these requests, contact us using the details below.

6. Cookies

Our website may use a small number of essential cookies required for basic site functionality (for example, remembering your preferences during a single visit). We do not currently use cookies for advertising or cross-site tracking purposes.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal or operational reasons. We will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page when we do.
