Privacy Policy

This policy explains what personal data gastricballoon.ae collects, why, and how it is handled. It applies to this website only.

Who we are

This site is operated by Dr Kerim Erdem Ulucay, a DHA-licensed Specialist General and Laparoscopic Surgeon consulting in Jumeirah 1 and JLT, Dubai. For any privacy question, contact erdemulucay@msn.com or +971 55 558 4957.

What we collect

The only personal data this site actively collects is what you choose to submit through the Book a Consultation form: your name, mobile number, and optionally your email address and a message describing what you would like help with.

Your web browser and server also exchange standard technical information when you visit any website (such as your IP address and browser type), which is used only for basic security and is not used to track you across other sites.

How we use it

Information submitted through the booking form is sent by email directly to Dr Ulucay so he or his clinic can contact you about your consultation request. It is not used for marketing, not sold, and not shared with advertisers.

Who we share it with

Your submission is emailed to Dr Ulucay’s own inbox. The site is hosted with Hostinger, which processes data as our hosting provider. We do not use advertising trackers, analytics cookies, or third-party marketing pixels on this site.

How long we keep it

Consultation requests are kept as long as needed to respond to your enquiry and for the practice’s ordinary record-keeping, then deleted when no longer needed.

Your rights

You can ask what information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, by emailing erdemulucay@msn.com.

Medical disclaimer. The information on this website is provided for general education and does not replace an in-person consultation, examination or diagnosis by a licensed physician. Gastric balloon treatment is not suitable for everyone and individual results vary according to starting weight, medical history and adherence to the accompanying diet and lifestyle programme. No clinical outcome is guaranteed. Persistent vomiting, severe abdominal pain, or blue-green discoloured urine while a balloon is in place must be assessed urgently — contact the clinic immediately or attend the nearest hospital emergency department.
