This policy is written to meet the requirements of the UK/EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), Australia’s Privacy Act 1988, and applicable United States state privacy laws. Wherever you are based, the rights described below apply to you.

2. Information We Collect

When you contact us or enrol in a course, we may collect: your name, email address, phone number (including WhatsApp), the name and age of the student, your country and general location, and information about the course you are interested in.

We also automatically collect Usage Data — including IP address, browser type, pages visited, and time spent on our website — to help us understand and improve the service.

3. How We Use Your Information

• Arrange and deliver your online Quran classes
• Match you with a suitable tutor and timezone-appropriate schedule
• Communicate with you about your lessons and progress
• Send weekly progress reports from your tutor
• Respond to your enquiries and WhatsApp messages
• Process payments for class plans

4. Cookies

We use essential cookies to operate our website and analytics cookies to understand how visitors use our site. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some website functionality.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal data. We may share your information with:

• Your assigned Quran tutor — only the information needed to conduct your classes
• Payment processors (such as Stripe or PayPal) — to process payments securely
• Legal authorities — only where required by applicable law

6. International Data Transfers

Because we serve students across the US, UK, Canada, Australia and beyond, your data may be processed in a country different from where you live. Where this happens, we take reasonable steps to ensure your data is protected to a standard consistent with this policy.

7. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as you are an active student and for a reasonable period afterwards in line with our legal obligations. You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us.

8. Children’s Privacy

We provide Quran classes for children and take the protection of children’s data seriously. We only collect a child’s data with the explicit consent of a parent or guardian, and we do not share a child’s personal data with third parties beyond what is necessary to deliver the class.

9. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to: access your personal data, correct inaccurate data, request deletion of your data, object to or restrict processing, and request data portability. UK/EU users have these rights under GDPR; Canadian users under PIPEDA; Australian users under the Privacy Act 1988; and US users under applicable state privacy laws. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected].

10. Security

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss or disclosure. All payment processing is handled by PCI DSS-compliant providers. No method of transmission over the internet is ever 100% secure.
