Privacy Policy

How QuranTEL handles personal data.

QuranTEL collects minimal personal data. This policy explains what is collected, how it is used, and your choices.

Privacy principles

Minimal data. No selling. No third-party tracking.

The following explains what data QuranTEL collects, how it is used, and your rights.

Question submissions

When you ask a question using the QuranTEL search or question form, the question text is sent to the QuranTEL backend to retrieve a source-traced response. Question text is logged for quality, review, and improvement purposes. No email address is required to ask a question.

Feedback and interest forms

If you use a feedback or interest form and provide your name and email address, that information is held by the QuranTEL team only. It is used solely to follow up on your submission or notify you when a requested pathway becomes available. It is not shared externally.

Cookies and analytics

Cookies and third-party analytics are not currently active. If analytics are added in future, they will be disclosed in this policy before activation and will not include personally identifiable tracking without your consent.

Technical logs

Standard server logs (IP address, request path, timestamp) may be recorded by the hosting provider for security and performance purposes. These are not used for user profiling and are not shared externally.

No sale of personal data

QuranTEL does not sell, rent, or share personal data with third parties for commercial purposes. This commitment applies to all data collected through this service.

Data retention

Question logs and feedback submissions are retained for a reasonable period to support service development and quality review. You may request deletion of your submitted data by contacting us through the feedback form.

Data protection principles

Data collection uses minimisation, purpose limitation, and access control. Only the data necessary for a specific function is collected, and only for that function.

Contact
