CERTIFICATION RECORD
This template was prepared and reviewed by a licensed Saudi lawyer and is kept current as the Kingdom's regulations change.
Where an Arabic and an English text exist, the Arabic text prevails
A notice explaining cookie categories, how consent is taken, and how choices are changed, drafted against the consent rules of the Personal Data Protection Law and bilingual.
Any website or app that uses cookies or similar technologies for measurement or marketing needs a published notice explaining what is collected, why, and how the user controls it. A consent banner alone is not enough: clicking a button is not informed consent unless a page explains the cookie categories and the effect of each choice. Sighaty template D-04 is drafted against the consent rules of the Personal Data Protection Law as a companion to the privacy policy D-03, and it covers what cookies are, their categories, consent and control, and the reference of the processing back to the privacy policy, in two parallel languages with the Arabic text prevailing on any difference.
Get the Cookie Notice TemplateD-04What this notice is and when you need it
A cookie notice is a short page explaining the small files stored on a visitor's device when they enter your site: which are essential to run the service, which serve preferences, which measure usage, and which serve advertising and remarketing. Any business using an analytics tool, an advertising pixel, or a remembered cart or language needs it, and it is usually the first page read when a privacy complaint arrives.
- A site or store using analytics tools to measure visits.
- Advertising campaigns relying on a tracking pixel or remarketing.
- An app or site that stores user preferences such as language or cart.
What the smart-fill asks and what you receive
The fill here is among the shortest in the library: the website domain as it appears in the address bar, the link to the on-site cookie settings page where users change their choices, a contact email, and the last updated date in both calendars. Everything else is fixed prose.
The fixed clauses describe the four cookie categories, consent through the banner, and the link to the privacy policy. One task remains after delivery: make sure your live consent banner really does offer accept all, reject non-essential, and customize by category as the text states, otherwise the notice describes a reality that does not exist. Within minutes you receive a formatted bilingual Word document, editable before publishing.
Why a lawyer-certified template beats a free download
Free notices are usually literal translations of European texts, so they cite rights and mechanisms that do not match what the Personal Data Protection Law provides, and they describe tools you do not even use. Worse, they describe an ideal consent banner while your site fires marketing pixels before any click. The Sighaty template is certified by a licensed Saudi lawyer, written for the Saudi framework and tied to the privacy policy D-03, and updated with the regulations, so you publish a notice that matches what your site actually does.
Frequently asked questions
Does the cookie notice replace the privacy policy?
No, it is a companion to it, not a substitute. The notice explains the files stored on the device and how consent to them is taken, while the privacy policy D-03 covers the whole processing of personal data: purpose, lawful basis, retention, and the data subject's rights. Data collected through cookies is processed under that policy, which is why the notice refers to it expressly.
Do essential cookies need consent?
Cookies essential to running the service, such as security, session, and cart cookies, are set without consent because the service does not work without them. Preference, analytics, and marketing cookies are set only after the user consents through the banner. Withdrawing consent later does not affect processing carried out before the withdrawal.
Can I get this template in the free trial?
Yes. The Cookie Notice D-04 is one of the nine everyday documents from which you may claim any three free in the Sighaty free trial, a sensible pick for a business building its legal pages for the first time and starting with privacy.
