# Orentara > Privacy-compliant websites for UAE business, and the operations behind them. A founder-led, UAE-focused boutique. Data protection (UAE PDPL, Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021) is engineered into every build, not bolted on. We also design and run the operations behind the site (Zoho, n8n). ## Start here - [Home](https://orentara.com/en): Privacy-compliant websites for UAE business, and the operations behind them. - [Free PDPL readiness check](https://orentara.com/en/pdpl-check): A free written PDPL readiness report for your UAE website: risk level, top gaps and the recommended next step.
